the hard way - otis spann lyrics
[verse 1]

but i’m done, just about good else peoples

[verse 3]
they said 26 letters in the alphabet
people said i can’t must spell my name
they said 26 letters in the alphabet
people said i can’t even spell my name
but you know i can go long so smoothly
people don’t bother me just the same
[verse 4]
after a few years p-ssed
i soon learned how to sign my name
yes, after a few years p-ssed
i learned how to sign my name
still each letter in the alphabet, they to me, seem the same
[verse 5]
some people call me the dumb boy
but that don’t pay me no mind
yeah, some people call me the dumb boy
but please don’t pay them no mind
’cause every number in the alphabet look the same
maybe i don’t revel rest to know mine
