Make It On My Own

I got to make it, make it on my own

I got to make it, make it on my own

My woman done left me for another man

I ain't got no money, and I can't pay my rent

The boss man got me mad, told him to drop dead

And I just can't get along with people

(How much can I take?) How much?

(How much can I take?)

I got to make it, make it on my own (on my own)

I got to make it, make it on my own (all alone)

I got to make it, make it on my own (on my own)

I got to make it, make it, make it on my own

Yeah, yeah, yeah…

No money in my pocket, I ain't eaten all day

Not a minute of sleep last night, I'm too tired to pray

A rags for clothes, my bad look shows, Lord only knows

But I'm gonna get a grip on my life

How much? (How much can I take?)

How much? (How much can I take?) Whoa!

I'm gonna make it, make it on my own (on my own)

I'm gonna make it, make it on my own (all alone)

I got to make it, make it on my own (on my own), yeah

I'm gonna make it, make it, make it on my own

Oh Lord…

Huh! Huh! Huh! Huh!

Huh! Huh! Huh! Huh!

I got to make it, make it on my own

I got to make it on my own

I got to make it, make it on my own

I got to make it on my own

How much can I take? How much can I take?

I got to make it, make it on my own

(I got to) How much can I take? How much can I take?

I got to make it, make it on my own (on my own)

I got to make it, make it on my own (all alone)

I got to make it, make it, make it on my own

I got to make it, make it, make it on my own

Yo bro, you know I'm runnin' low, how's about some dough?

Hey, Big Slick, how's about a hit on your feel-good stick?

Hello sweet mama, I'ma goin' through a drama, how's about a love-a-rama?

Hello pretty baby, sophisticated lady, where'd you get that class?

I got to make it, make it on my own

I got to make it, make it on my own (all alone!)

I got to make it, make it on my own

(I'm gonna make it on my own, baby)

I got to make it, make it on my own (all alone!)

I got to make it, make it on my own (gonna make it on my own)

I got to make it, make it on my own (I'm gonna make it all alone)

I got to make it, make it on my own (hmm, make it on my own)

I got to make it…
