Lyrics:

Black Boys On The Corner (Lynott)
------------------------

One of the black boys said
I need none of your pity
Its your mama that dont
Like you loose in the city

But stick about, take note
Take a tip, take no back lip
Come come a little closer
Let me see you snap your fingertip

Because standing on the corner
Just might suit you or maybe baby
Theres something else you wanna do

Like rolling dice, nice
Like shooting pool, hey thats cool

Im a little black boy and I dont know my place
Im just a little black boy, I just threw my ace
Im a little black boy, recognize my face

One of the black boys said
Im a giving a warning
People been putting me down
Im so tired Im yawning

A new suit, pretty boots to boot
And Im feeling slick
Gonna go to town, look around
And pull a chick

Of course standing on the corner
Might suit you or maybe baby
Theres something else that you wanna do

Like playing poker, joker
Like to back a race, ace

Im a little black boy and I dont know my proper place
Im a little black boy, get my head in its space
Im a little black boy, I just play my bass
Im a little black boy, its no disgrace
