The Low Boy Lyrics

[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
