Don't call me hippy cause the way that i look,
Cause I got a recipe and you know I can cook.
And I come fourth with only good intent you know I
am Heaven bound but I'm surely hell bent
On getting the job done like I know I should,
Get the job like my mama told me to.
Only one thing can remember she said
You gotta earn all of your respect.
And I don't care what race or what colour
Or what creed all that shit don't bother me only
One thing that you should not forget
You gotta treat yo mama with respect
And I don't care about the car or the clothes you wear
Only one thing that you should not forget
You gotta treat yo mama with respect
I got a couple of friends up in a tree in Northcliff
You know they're doing their part you know they're doing their bit
Trying to save our mother from all this greed
You know they know what she wants, you know they know what she needs
I got a couple of sisters in South Australia
Stopping the uranium from coming up
Oh yeh man you know they know what she need
They're stopping all of that
Government Corporate Greed
