Don’t Turn Your Back On Me Lyrics by Ky Rodgers

From My Mind

2018

Momma always said never fall for a rich girl
Cause when you fall they won’t catch you
And Momma always said stay away from the drug world
I promise those things won’t get you through
But what’d I do?
I fell in love with a rich girl
And she don’t care nothing about me
So I had to relieve myself somehow
I went and turned to these streets
And tried me a couple things
Please don’t be mad at me
Please don’t be dramatic
Please don’t turn your back on me
These kids, Ma, they laugh at me
Cause I don’t fit in with the jocks and the athletes
I feel like a different breed
Most of the time I feel like no ones hearing me
Are you even listening?
I didn’t think so
So imma roll the whole thing and blow weed smoke
Imma roll the whole thing and blow weed smoke
Yea Imma roll the whole thing and blow weed smoke
Imma roll the whole thing and blow weed smoke
Well daddy always said never fall for a broke girl
You need a little sugar that’ll get you through
But daddy fell in love with the white Girl
The white girl, yeah
So I figured I had to try me some, too
You know, monkey see, monkey do
But please don’t be mad at me
Please don’t look away, Pa, please don’t turn your back on me
Feels like you’re erasing me
If I remember correctly, dad, this is how you raised me
But you ain’t even here no more
Even if you was, Dad, I ain’t a kid no more
I fell in love with the girl next door
And now she’s pulling a you
And walking out the door
So I
Imma roll the whole thing and blow weed smoke (x4)
