Lyrics Ry Cooder – Let’s Have A Ball
Text:
I wanna ball like I never did ball before (Before, before, before)
I wanna ball like I never did ball before (Before, before, before)
I may never get a break like this in life no more
Well, I wanna ball like I never did ball before (Before, before, before)
I may never get a break like this in life no more
Got money in my pocket
I ain’t begging for bread
Cadillac El Dorado
Well, it’s gone to my head
I got a short time living and a long greasy time to pay (play) dead
Ain’t doing no favours, ain’t asking for none
Honey, I got money, I can pay for my fun
That’s the way I want it, that’s the way it must be done
(Because)
I wanna ball like I never did ball before (Before, before, before)
I wanna ball like I never did ball before (Before, before, before)
I may never get a break like this in life no more
A certain little mama (You
?
for me)
Gonna jump and shout (Oh, yeah)
When the El Dorado rolls up (Ah)
And I’ll come walking out
?
Gonna tell ya pretty baby (Say you like nothing)
You don’t know what it’s all about
(I’ve got) No special woman (No special woman)
Want no special friend (No special friend)
Want a good time today (Good time today)
Don’t dial my number (Oh, Lord)
I’ll tell you when (I’ll tell you when)
I wanna ball like I never did ball before (Before, before, before)
Really wanna… never did ball before (Before, before, before)
I may never get a break like this in life no more
