Verse 1:
Hey down in the south
it's blazing hot
my mama’s sweat
dripped in that pot
and she stirred up debt
death blood and sweat
all in that pot
and what she taught
can't be forgot
Chorus:
Sharp wits gave us shrimp and grits,
neckbones and collard greens,
if you know what I mean
Verse 2:
Hey like Atlas
my momma carried weight
it was enough to make a lesser man's
back break
for heaven sake she'd say
then bend her knees
and her head and pray
and to this day
I haven't Strayed
Chorus:
Verse 3:
My mama said
“baby these streets are crazy”
I said “yeah mama, but these streets
they helped Raise Me”
she said “they'll leave you covered And smothered
like pork chops in gravy
and what she said
it saved me
Chorus:
