"Rooster" lyrics

"Rooster"

See I'm a rooster, in the cut
Shining on girl watch me strut
I'm a rooster (rooster), still a man
Guess you'll have to change them plans
I'm a rooster (rooster), just so you know
I decide which way I go
I'm a rooster (rooster), here to stay
Straight up molded out of clay

Another late night grooving
Rolling with a rooster tonight, we rolling
(Sing it, ladies) We rolling
Another late night grooving
Rolling with a rooster tonight

See I'm a rooster, standing true
Got to keep it straight, stuck together like glue
I'm a rooster, I know my place
Have to keep my kids and keep my woman safe
The woman is the soul of a man, she's the soul of a man
She can keep it all together when you can't
She's the spring from which I flow
Teach me many things that I don't know
But I'm a rooster (rooster), and that's a fact
So now you know how I'm gonna act
I'm a rooster (rooster), full legit
Keeping it strong boy with true grit
Things get hard, you can't split
Some talk tough, some talk quit
But only a punk would say that shit
And that's straight up country boy

Another late night grooving
Rolling with a rooster
Rolling with a rooster tonight

We rolling (bring it down), we rolling (whatcha doin'?)
We rolling (whatcha doin', girl?), we rolling

Another late night grooving
Rolling with a rooster tonight, we rolling
(Come on, y'all) We rolling
Another late night grooving (oh yeah)
Rolling with a rooster tonight

Rooster, rooster
Rooster, rooster
Rooster, rooster

Rooster, rooster
Rooster, rooster
Rooster, rooster

I'm a rooster, got the hammer down
By the grace of God, I can't be bound
I'm a rooster, and I can go all day
Love a little work and love a lot of play
Holding the line they keep a coming all the time
Gonna keep you weak if you want to stay blind
To the joy and the pain and the love and the shame
All around the world a rooster feels the same thing

Another late night grooving
Rolling with a rooster
Rolling with a rooster tonight
