| I got a letter from the government | |
| The other day | |
| Opened it and read it | |
| It said they were suckers | |
| They wanted me for their army or whatever | |
| Picture me givin' a damn, I said never | |
| Here is a land that never gave a damn | |
| About a brother like myself | |
| Because I never did | |
| I wasn't wit' it, but just that very minute... | |
| It occurred to me | |
| The suckers had authority | |
| Cold sweatin' as I dwell in my cell | |
| How long has it been? | |
| They got me sittin' in the state pen | |
| I gotta get out, but that thought was thought before | |
| I contemplated a plan on the cell floor | |
| I'm not a fugitive on the run | |
| But a brother like me begun, to be another one | |
| Public enemy servin' time, they drew the line y'all | |
| They criticize me for some crime | |
| I got a letter, I got a letter, I got a letter | |
| Picture me given' a damn, I said never | |
| Mmm...mmm...mmm | |
| It occurred to me | |
| The suckers had authority | |
| Cold sweatin' as I dwell in my cell | |
| How long has it been? | |
| They got me sittin' in the state pen | |

| Tricky : | |
| Many switch in, switch on, switch off X5 | |
| Martina : | |
| Nevertheless they could not understand | |
| That I'm a black man, and I could never be a veteran. | |
| On the strength of situations, I'm real. | |
| I got a raw deal, so I'm lookin' for the steel | |
| Looking for the steel. | |
