If I Had No Loot (album version)

Da-da-da-day, da-da-da-da-day-ay.
Da-da-da-day, da-da-da-da-day-ay.
Da-da-da-day, da-da-da-da-day-ay.
Da-da-da-day, da-da-da-da-day-ay.
If the shoe fits, I want you to wear it and wear it good.
Ah-ah, ah-ah, yeah, ah-ah-hah.
Talkin' 'bout them times when I was by myself,
I would always be lookin' for somebody else.
But as time went on, I had a talk with my mind.
Friends like you and you I gotta leave behind.
And so you call me your friend,
But you only want my ends.
And I'll never see you if I had no loot. (I'll never see them again.)
I'm just glad I know the truth
And I'm payin' my own bills.
And I'll never ever depend on you.
Friends and enemies around me every day.
I can't believe half the things they say.
Takin' me for granted and givin' no credit at all.
I'll just keep bouncin' like a bouncin' ball.
Everybody seems to disappear on me.
Can't trust no one as far as I can see.
If I could be that fly that's on the wall
Listenin' to my friends talk about it all.
You call me your friend,
But you only want my ends.
And I'll never see you if I had no loot. (I'll never see them again.)
I'm just glad I know the truth
And I'm payin' my own bills.
And I'll never ever depend on you.
Sons of Soul, y'all.
I don't mean to step on nobody's foot, but
Da-da-da-day, da-da-da-da-day-ay.
Da-da-da-day, da-da-da-da-day-ay.
Da-da-da-day, da-da-da-da-day-ay.
Da-da-da-day, da-da-da-da-day-ay.
When I need somebody, there's nobody to call.
When they need me, my phone rings off the wall.
But these are my friends and that's so what they say
Constantly takin' from me every day.
You say you call me your friend,
But you only want my ends.
And I'll never see you if I had no loot. (I'll never see them again.)
I'm just glad I know the truth
And I'm payin' my own bills. (Uh huh.)
And I'll never ever depend on you.
Sons of Soul, y'all.
La, la, la, da, dee.
La, la, la, da, dee.
La, la, la, da, dee, la, la, la, la.
I don't mean to step on nobody's foot, but
Da-da-da-day, da-da-da-da-day-ay.
Da-da-da-day, da-da-da-da-day-ay.
Da-da-da-day, da-da-da-da-day-ay.
Da-da-da-day, da-da-da-da-day-ay.
You call me your friend,
But you only want my ends.
And I'll never see you if I had no loot. (I'll never see them again.)
I'm just glad I know the truth
And I'm payin' my own bills. (Uh huh.)
And I'll never ever depend on you. (Uh huh.)
You call me your friend,
But you only want my ends.
And I'll never see you if I had no loot. (I'll never see them again.)
I'm just glad I know the truth
And I'm payin' my own bills.
And I'll never ever depend on you.
You know sometimes I get what it feels like.
You call me your friend,
But you only want my ends.
And I'll never see you if I had no loot.
I'm just glad I know the truth
And I'm payin' my own bills.
And I'll never ever depend on you.
