Black Boys On The Corner Lyrics - Singles - Thin Lizzy

One of the black boys said 

"I need none of your pity" 

It's your mama that don't 

Like you loose in the city 

But stick about, take note 

Take a tip, take no back lip 

Come come a little closer 

Let me see you snap your fingertip 

Because standing on the corner 

Just might suit you or maybe baby 

There's something else you wanna do 

Like rolling dice, nice 

Like shooting pool, hey that's cool

I'm a little black boy and I don't know my place 

I'm just a little black boy, I just threw my ace 

I'm a little black boy, recognize my face 

One of the black boys said 

"I'm a giving a warning" 

"People been putting me down" 

"I'm so tired I'm yawning" 

A new suit, pretty boots to boot 

And I'm feeling slick 

Gonna go to town, look around 

And pull a chick 

Of course standing on the corner 

Might suit you or maybe baby 

There's something else that you wanna do 

Like playing poker, joker 

Like to back a race, ace

I'm a little black boy and I don't know my proper place 

I'm a little black boy, get my head in its space 

I'm a little black boy, I just play my bass 

I'm a little black boy, it's no disgrace
