inner city blues (make me wanna holler) (reprise) (live 1972) - marvin gaye lyrics

[intro]
one, two, three, four

i’m gonna dedicate this to my mother and father
mr. and mrs. g*ye, who are in the audience
i’d like you to acknowledge them, ladies and gentlemen
i love them very much
also my family, sisters and brothers, all of you

dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah

[verse 1]
rockets, moon shots
spend it on the have nots
money, we make it
‘fore we see it, you take it

[chorus]
ah, make you wanna holler
the way they do my life, yeah
make me wanna holler
thе way they do my life
this ain’t livin’, this ain’t livin’
no, no baby, this ain’t livin’
no, no, no
[verse 2]
inflation, no chance
to incrеase, finance
bills pile up, sky high
send that boy off, to die

[chorus]
ah, make me wanna holler
the way they do my life
make me wanna holler
the way they do my life
ah baby

[scatting and harmonizing]

[verse 3]
hang ups, let downs
bad breaks, set backs
natural fact is
oh, honey, that i can’t pay my taxes

[chorus]
oh, make me wanna holler
throw up both my hands
yeah, it makes me wanna holler
throw up both my hands, ow
[verse 4]
crime is increasing
trigger*happy policing
ooh, panic is spreading
god knows where, where we’re heading

[chorus]
ah, ooh, ah, ah, don’t understand
make me wanna holler
they don’t understand, ah ow

[scatting and harmonizing]

[outro]
god bless you
and lord keep you
and may you live, live, live a good life
god bless you
god keep you
may you live, live, live a long, long, sweet life
don’t let the things get you down
hold your head up, baby, walk around
said god bless you, and i keep you
i’m praying a prayer for each and every one of you
heaven bless you, heaven keep you
lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, lord, ooh, hoo
thank you
“what’s going on”
thank you
thank you, ladies and gentlemen
