Ain't No Son Lyrics - Court Yard Hounds - Court Yard Hounds

I got something to say 

I'm scared and so afraid 

Can you take me as I am? 

Come what may our blood is all the same 

I'm still your little man 

He said, "You ain't no son to me 

You ain't no son to me 

Eight pound baby boy 

I bounced on my knee" 

No, you ain't no son of mine 

You ain't no son of mine 

Aw, forget it girls 

There ain't no use in trying 

Don't expect to get my love for free 

And don't blame me 

Well, this ain't no fun for me 

This ain't fun for me 

Oh, boys should be boys 

That's how it should be, yeah 

You ain't coming home 

No, you ain't coming home 

'Til you walk the straight line 

You'll be out on your own 

Don't expect to save your soul for free 

When you're the one who turned your back on me 

Aren't you a sight to see 

Yeah, you're a sight to see 

What you call freedom 

Makes you look like a freak, yeah 

You must get around 

'Cause it sure got around 

Don't you know that 

I can't show my face in this town 

Don't think I'm gonna get you up off of me 

When you're the one who turned your back on me 

Stranger, stranger on the wall 

When the neighbors come to call 

I just don't know what to say 

So I'll put you away 

This time I won't leave a trace 

I'll fill up the empty space 

When I put you, I put you away 

I put you away 

He said, "You ain't no son to me 

You ain't no son to me 

Eight pound baby boy 

I bounced on my knee" 

No, you ain't no son of mine 

You ain't no son of mine 

Aw, forget it girls 

There ain't no use in trying 

Don't expect to get my love for free 

When you're the one who turned your back on me 

Don't blame me 

Yeah, don't blame me 

Don't blame me 

Shame on you 

Shame on you 

Shame on you
