LRC Lyrics download
[00:00.000] We have a poem here, it's called "Whitey On The Moon"
[00:08.165] It was inspired by some whiteys on the moon
[00:14.916] So I wanna give credit where credit is due
[00:33.738] A rat done bit my sister Nell
[00:36.445] With whitey on the moon
[00:38.281] Her face and arms began to swell
[00:40.557] And whitey's on the moon
[00:42.606] I can't pay no doctor bills
[00:44.905] But whitey's on the moon
[00:46.996] Ten years from now I'll be payin' still
[00:49.092] While whitey's on the moon
[00:50.624] You know, the man just upped my rent last night
[00:53.352] Cause whitey's on the moon
[00:55.279] No hot water, no toilets, no lights
[00:57.419] But whitey's on the moon
[00:59.602] I wonder why he's upping me?
[01:01.836] Cause whitey's on the moon?
[01:03.681] Well, I was already giving him fifty a week
[01:05.891] With whitey on the moon
[01:07.804] Taxes taking my whole damn check
[01:10.266] The junkies making me a nervous wreck
[01:12.296] The price of food is going up
[01:14.360] And as if all that shit wasn't enough
[01:16.545] A rat done bit my sister Nell
[01:18.783] With whitey on the moon
[01:20.704] Her face and arm began to swell
[01:23.076] And whitey's on the moon
[01:24.856] Was all that money I made last year
[01:27.270] For whitey on the moon?
[01:29.111] How come I ain't got no money here?
[01:31.019] Hmm! Whitey's on the moon
[01:33.203] You know, I just 'bout had my fill
[01:35.686] Of whitey on the moon
[01:37.655] I think I'll send these doctor bills
[01:39.782] Airmail special
[01:48.938] To whitey on the moon

We have a poem here, it's called "Whitey On The Moon"
It was inspired by some whiteys on the moon
So I wanna give credit where credit is due
A rat done bit my sister Nell
With whitey on the moon
Her face and arms began to swell
And whitey's on the moon
I can't pay no doctor bills
But whitey's on the moon
Ten years from now I'll be payin' still
While whitey's on the moon
You know, the man just upped my rent last night
Cause whitey's on the moon
No hot water, no toilets, no lights
But whitey's on the moon
I wonder why he's upping me?
Cause whitey's on the moon?
Well, I was already giving him fifty a week
With whitey on the moon
Taxes taking my whole damn check
The junkies making me a nervous wreck
The price of food is going up
And as if all that shit wasn't enough
A rat done bit my sister Nell
With whitey on the moon
Her face and arm began to swell
And whitey's on the moon
Was all that money I made last year
For whitey on the moon?
How come I ain't got no money here?
Hmm! Whitey's on the moon
You know, I just 'bout had my fill
Of whitey on the moon
I think I'll send these doctor bills
Airmail special
To whitey on the moon
