Same Old Song and Dance

(Tyler, Perry)

get yourself cooler, lay yourself low

coincidental murder, with nothing to show

with the judge, constipation will go to his head

and his wife's aggravation, you're soon enough dead

it's the same old story, same old song and dance, my friend

it's the same old story, same old song and dance, my friend

gotcha with the cocaine they found with your gun

[ alt: shady lookin' loser, you played with my gun ]

no smoothy face laywer to getcha undone

say love ain't the same on the south side of town

you could look, but you ain't gonna find it around

it's the same old story, same old song and dance, my friend

it's the same old story, same old story

same old song and dance

fate comes a-knockin', doors start lockin'

your old time connection, change your direction

ain't gonna change it, can't rearrange it

can't stand the pain when it's all the same to you, my friend

when you're low down and dirty, from walkin' the street

with your old hurdy-gurdy, no one to meet

say love ain't the same, on the south side of town

you could look, but you ain't gonna find it around
