Johnny Crash Lyrics
"Hey Kid"

Mama takes offence at you livin' in sin
The system chews you up as you start to begin
Kids got tattoos, rings in his ears
Everything came true that his mama fears
Raised in a latrine on a dead end street
I was a gang bang scoundrel of the social elite
It's the same old story, never get a second chance
The system never fails but you gotta make a stance

Hey Kid! Hey Kid!
Look what ya did
Hey Kid! Hey Kid!
Whoa oh!
Hey Kid! Hey Kid!
Mama blew her lid
Hey Kid! Hey Kid!
Whoa oh!

I got my education at the school of hard knocks
The pushers and the shovers, you can stuff your rocks
My teachers had the qualities you need for president
They were rich, two-faced and mentally bent
I broke out of school at the age of sixteen
I was a rebel rouser just like Jimmy Dean
I had a chip on my shoulder as big as the world
But I knew a thing or two about gettin' the girls
I love those girls!

Hey Kid! Hey Kid!
Look what ya did
Hey Kid! Hey Kid!
Whoa oh!
Hey Kid! Hey Kid!
Mama blew her lid
Hey Kid! Hey Kid!
Whoa oh!

Oh, yeah!

Hey Kid! Hey Kid!
Look what ya did
Hey Kid! Hey Kid!
Whoa oh!
Hey Kid! Hey Kid!
Mama blew her lid
Hey Kid! Hey Kid!
Whoa oh!

Hey Kid! Hey Kid!
Look what ya did
Hey Kid! Hey Kid!
Whoa oh!
Hey Kid! Hey Kid!
Mama blew her lid
Hey Kid! Hey Kid!
Whoa! Oh! Oh! Oh...
