If I Had No Loot - Tony! Toni! Tone!

Da-da-da-day, da-da-da-da-day-ay, Da-da-da-day, da-da-da-da-day-ay

Da-da-da-day, da-da-da-da-day-ay

If the shoe fits I want you to wear it,

And wear it good,

Ah-ah, ah-ah-yeah, ah-ah-hah

Talkin' 'bout them times when I was by myself,

I would always be lookin' for somebody else

But as time went on I had a talk with my mind,

Friends like you and you I gotta leave behind

And so, you call me your friend but you only want my gifts

And I’ll never see you if I had no loot,

I’ll never see them

I’m just glad I know the truth

And I’m payin' my own bills

And I’ll never ever depend on you

Friends and enemies around me everyday,

I can’t believe half the things they say

Takin' me for granted givin' no credit at all,

I’ll just keep bouncin' like a bouncin' ball

Everybody seems to disappear on me,

Can’t trust no one as far as I can see

If I could be that fly that’s on the wall, listenin' to my friends talk about

it all

You call me your friend

But you only want my gifts

And I’ll never see you if I had no loot,

I’ll never see them

I’m just glad I know the truth

And I’m payin' my own bills

And I’ll never ever depend on you,

Sons Of Soul, y’all

I don’t mean to step on nobody’s foot, but ah —

When I need somebody there’s nobody to call

When they need me,

My phone rings off the wall

But these are my friends

And that so what they say

Constantly takin' from me everyday, you say

You call me your friend

But you only want my gifts

And I’ll never see you if I had no loot,

I’ll never see them

I’m just glad I know the truth

And I’m payin' my own bills

And I’ll never ever depend on you,

Sons Of Soul, y’all
