The coffee at the hospital

I'm talking to the judge

And if that judge don't bust you,
A
I'll take you to the one above

'Cause I would not be in traction if I did not fall in love
Verse 2:
E9
Call me a dumbell, call me a spoiled sport,

If that court don't bust you, mama,
A
I'll take you to, I'll take you to, the one above

My arm and first 3 fingers

They are in a plaster glove

I would not be on Morphine

I swear by God above
