"Cornbread" lyrics

Cornbread
Cornbread

In the heat of the night, hear the bump of the ball
On the floor of the court, on the sides of the hall
He's Cornbread (Cornbread)
Oh, he's Cornbread (Cornbread)

He's a man made of steel, wish no sucker to buy
Was a giant in his field, not a trick for one eye
He's Cornbread (Cornbread)
Oh, he's Cornbread (Cornbread)

He's a man with a plan
He's got a basketball in his hand
But he's Cornbread (Cornbread)
Oh, he's Cornbread (Cornbread)
He's a man with a plan
He's got the whole world in his hand
But he's Cornbread (Cornbread)
Oh, he's Cornbread (Cornbread)

He is going to school, not looking to fight
Not a neighborhood fool, got no gun or a knife
He's Cornbread (Cornbread)
Oh, he's Cornbread (Cornbread)

He's a dream to his moms, he's a man to his pop
He's an idol to kids, and he loves soda pop
He's Cornbread (Cornbread)
Oh, he's Cornbread (Cornbread)

He's a man with a plan
He's got a basketball in his hand
But he's Cornbread (Cornbread)
Oh, he's Cornbread (Cornbread)

To the kids on the block, to his friends and his foes
He's not timid or shy, and you know that he knows
He's Cornbread (Cornbread)
Oh, he's Cornbread (Cornbread)

Like the mix in a bowl, like the yeast in a roll
He's alive, he ain't dead, he's the soul to the bread
He's Cornbread (Cornbread)
Oh, he's Cornbread (Cornbread)

Life is so precious, do the best that you can
Keep your hands on the ball, hit the open man
He's Cornbread (Cornbread)
Oh, he's Cornbread (Cornbread)
He's Cornbread
