Don't fall in that wishing well
Wishing for heaven and gettin' hell

Kiss your papa, but not too long
Hold his hand, don't do no wrong

Time will wash away all them years
Scar or a bruise, pick and choose
When you're all grown up you'll have the blues

Life will give you that wedding ring

Fancy cars and diamond things
You best believe in Jesus' way
And never fall asleep forgetting to pray

Not my nigger friends or their nigger lives
But Jesus love me, dat for sure
