i don t know satisfaction

Sly And The Family Stone

People to see, even me
Man with a little got more of a plea
He s cryin -I don t know

Time at last, laws to pass
Can t be a few got to be a mass
A-tryin -got to go

Bigger crowd, feelin proud
And all of a sudden I m singin loud
Applyin -what I know

Feel the game, not a pain
Ain t nobody in a strain
Defyin - cause they know

Now I know what to do
No more sellin me to you
Buyin -that s a no no no

Mother wit is what you git Tryin to have the most of it
Am I livin -I don t know

Ask yourself how you feel
Are you really feelin real
What you say-I don t know

I see abuse, what s the use
Time must let my people loose
We tryin -I don t know

Much to learn, a place to turn
When there s nothin else to burn
Replyn -think I know

Nothin in the way, but another day
And we re gonna push it on out the way
Cause we re goin -what we know
