The Low Boy Lyrics


Layto The Low Boy




[Chorus]
Everybody said no, boy
You were born too low, boy
Just pick up and run
No, it can't be done, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum
I'm a homegrown soul boy
Royal flush, don't fold boy
Or pick up and run
I'll glow like the sun, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum

[Verse 1]
Hey, no means no
When the pitch goes high
You can't take it real low
Like Jon Snow
And as commander I should know
I've never taken orders from the drive-in-window
When you tell me no
I can feel it in my bones
And I always gotta show

[Pre-Chorus]
Understand defeat, I'm going psycho
Got quicksanded feet, I'm going psycho
Must act nice and sweet, I'm going psycho
Veni, vidi, vici
I just want you to see

[Chorus]
Everybody said no, boy
You were born too low, boy
Just pick up and run
No, it can't be done, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum
I'm a homegrown soul boy
Royal flush, don't fold boy
Or pick up and run
I'll glow like the sun, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum

[Verse 2]
Wax on, wax off
And pick up more trash
Laborious jobs until your music means cash
Thick skin
Cause I'm used to rejection
Every "no" claimed is a dose of affection
You don't seem to know
Where I'm, where I'm gonna go
And I always gotta show

[Pre-Chorus]
Understand defeat, I'm going psycho
Got quicksanded feet, I'm going psycho
Must act nice and sweet, I'm going psycho
Veni, vidi, vici
I just want you to see

[Chorus]
Everybody said no, boy
You were born too low, boy
Just pick up and run
No, it can't be done, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum
I'm a homegrown soul boy
Royal flush, don't fold boy
Or pick up and run
I'll glow like the sun, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum

[Bridge]
Everybody say
Run, boy
Hide, boy
No-go low, boy
I say fly, boy
They're too slow, boy
You got the gift to glow like the sun
And I'm never gon' don' run
Everybody say
Run, boy
Hide, boy
No-go low, boy
I say fly, boy
They're too slow boy
You got the gift to glow like the sun
And I'm never gon' don' run
I'm a young gun, son

[Refrain]
Low boy, pick up and run
Low boy, pick up and run
Low boy, pick up and run
Everybody, sing!

[Chorus]
Everybody said no, boy
You were born too low, boy
Just pick up and run
No, it can't be done, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum
I'm a homegrown soul boy
Royal flush, don't fold boy
Or pick up and run
I'll glow like the sun, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum
Everybody said no, boy
You were born too low, boy
Just pick up and run
No, it can't be done, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum
I'm a homegrown soul boy
Royal flush, don't fold boy
Or pick up and run
I'll glow like the sun, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum
