Lyrics Gil Scott–Heron – The Other Side, Part II
Text:
Kick it, quit it
x4
home
Told him, kick it, quit it
x3, can’t go home
I know when they told me, kick it, quit it
x3, can’t go home
Feeling so much worse now, kick it, quit it
x3, gotta go home
Yeah, my friends say «stop»
Told myself a 100 times I’m going stop
Yeah, my friends say «quit it»
They don’t know how many times I’ve said I gotta quit it
Then I say «tomorrow»
x14
hey, I’m going to stop
Yes, in the morning I’m gonna go home
Need a little bit of love in the morning, love in the morning
Somebody help me get over this thing
Got to go home
Feel like I could start all over at home
Make myself a brand new life at home
First I gotta face them down, say «kick it, quit it»
x4
home
Yeah, I’m gonna say «kick it, quit it»
x2
get back home
Yeah, I hear ’em say «kick it, quit it»
x2
I know when they told me, kick it, quit it
x3, can’t go home
Feeling so much worse now, kick it, quit it
x3, gotta go home
Yeah, my friends say «stop»
Told myself a 100 times I’m going stop
Yeah, my friends say «quit it»
They don’t know how many times I’ve said I gotta quit it
Then I say «tomorrow»
x14
hey, I’m going to stop
Yes, in the morning I’m gonna go home
Need a little bit of love in the morning, love in the morning
Somebody help me get over this thing
Got to go home
Feel like I could start all over at home
Make myself a brand new life at home
First I gotta face them down, say «kick it, quit it»
x4
home
Yeah, I’m gonna say «kick it, quit it»
x2
get back home
Yeah, I hear ’em say «kick it, quit it»
x2
can’t get home
Always on my mind say «kick it, quit it»
x2
can’t go home
Always on my mind say «kick it, quit it»
x2
can’t go home
