Got My Own Time

from BREAK OUT! by The Slingshots

/

about

a soul track that draws on the legacy of the great Sam Cooke (whom the group was keen to pay tribute to) and is a song of confidence and life, exclaiming that The Slingshots' time is not over

lyrics

There was a time, was so broke
Didn't have a place to go
And you said "Why?How come?"
"Did you loose it?"
I ain't foolin', got my own time!
And my time isn't now!
I ain't foolin', got my own time!
Please!
I was a man of great hopes and great beliefs
They tried to put me down...
Mistreat me...
Treat me like a fool!
I ain't foolin', got my own time!
And my time isn't now!
I ain't foolin', got my own time!
I ain't foolin', got my own time!
And my time isn't now!
I ain't foolin', got my own time!
Don't tell me man I got to be goin'!
Well my papa told me not to go there!
And my momma not to do that!
Well my papa told me not to go there!
And my momma not to do that!
I ain't foolin', got my own time!
I ain't foolin', got my own time!
I ain't foolin', got my own time!
I ain't foolin', got my own time!
I ain't foolin', got my own time!
And my time isn't now!
I ain't foolin', got my own time!
Please!
