Lyrics
Let this be a lesson to you girl: don't come around where you know you don't belong
They're riding on the avenue and probably coming after you and they all look mean and strong
Mean and strong like liquor
Mean and strong like fear
Strong like the people from south alabama and mean like the people from here
Take it from me… we ain't never gonna change
Daddy used to empty out his shotgun shells and fill 'em full of black-eyed peas
He'd aim real low and tear out your ankles or rip right through your knees
There ain't much traffic on the highway. there ain't much traffic on the lake
The atf and the abi got everything they could take
Take it from me… they didn't take it from me
We ain't never gonna change
We ain't doin' nothin' wrong
We ain't never gonna change
So shut your mouth and play along
I thought about going in the army. I thought about going overseas
I wouldn't have trouble with a piss test; only problem is my bad left knee
My brother got picked up at parker's, got him a ride in a new crown vic
They said that he was movin' on a federal level but they couldn't really make it stick
Take it from me…
We ain't never gonna change
We ain't doin' nothin' wrong
We ain't never gonna change
So shut your mouth and play along
You can throw me in the colbert county jailhouse
You can throw me off the wilson dam
But there ain't much difference in the man I wanna be and the man I really am
We ain't never gonna change
