See that black boy over there, runninand' scared
his oland' manand's in a bottle.
he done quit his 9 to 5 to drink full time
so now heand's livinand' in the bottle.
see that black boy over there, runninand' scared
his oland' man got a problem
pawned off damn near everything, his oland'
womanand's weddinand' ring for a bottle.
and donand't you think itand's a crime
when time after time, people in the bottle.
See that sista, sho wuz fine before she
started drinkinand' wine
from the bottle.
said her oland' man committed a crime
and heand's doinand' time,
so now sheand's in the bottle.
sheand's out there on the avenue, all by herself
shoand' needs help from the bottle.
preacherman tried to help her out,
she cussed him out and hit him in the head with a bottle.
and donand't you think itand's a crime
when time after time, people in the bottle.
See that gent in the wrinkled suit
he done damn near blown his cool
to the bottle
he wuz a doctor helpinand' young girls along
if they wuznand't too far gone to have problems.
but defenders of the dollar eagle
said andquot;what you doinand', doc, it ainand't legal,andquot;
and now heand's in the bottle.
now we watch him everyday tryinand' to
chase the pigeons away
from the bottle.
and donand't you think itand's a crime
when time after time, people in the bottle.
