Thank You for Talkin' to Me, Africa

Lyrics

Lookin' at the devil
 Grinnin' at his gun
 Fingers start shakin'
 I begin to run
 (Ooh) bullets start chasin'
 (I got to friggin'...) I begin to stop
 We begin to tussle
 I was on top
 Thank you, for lettin' me be myself again
 I wanna thank you, for lettin' me be myself again
 Stiff all in the collar
 Fluffy in the face
 (Chit, chat) chit-chat chatter tryin'
 Oh, stuffy in the place
 I wanna thank you for the party
 I could never stay (I could never stay)
 Many things are on my mind (many things on my mind)
 Words in the way
 Ooh-hoo-hoo, thank you for lettin' me be myself again (oh yeah)
 Oh-ho, thank you, for lettin' me be myself again (hey! Yeah!)
 Dance to the music
 (Oh) all night long
 (Everyday) everyday people
 (Gonna try) sing a simple song
 My ma-mama's so happy
 Mama start to cry
 Papa's still singin'
 You can make it (you can make it) make it (try)
 Hey, thank you, for lettin' me be myself again
 I gotta thank you, for lettin' me be myself again (yeah yeah)
 Flamin' eyes of people fear
 Burnin' into you
 Many men are missin' much
 Hatin' what they do
 Youth and truth are makin' love
 Dig it for a starter
 Dyin' young is hard to take
 Sellin' out is harder
 Thank you, for lettin' me be myself again
 Thank you, for lettin' me be myself again (hey!)
 Thank you, for lettin' me be myself again (I went back again, again)
 I wanna thank you, for lettin' me be myself again (roll back, roll back, roll back)
 Thank you, for lettin' me be myself again
 (Well...) let 'em fly (yeah) let 'em fly
 Thank you, for lettin' me be myself again (huh, I got this)
 Thank you, for lettin' me be myself again (ay, yeah)
 Thank you, for lettin' me be myself again
