Why Me Lord? Songtext
von Shaggy

Huh, now isn′t it amazing sometime
As soon as people reach in a bad situation they start to call on God
Ha-haa-haa, haah
And you should remember God in your everyday nuance
Not just when it gets bad, you know what it is
Shaggy

Early Sunday morning in the spring of '96
I′m chilling on my couch watching the Bulls against the Knicks
My honey marches in and ask if I think I'm slick
It seems she found my shirt with lipstick
I thought I could explain but then my story wouldn't stick
Incriminating pictures show me some other chick
It happened once before and she was tired of the tricks
She asked me, "Can I spell the word evict?"


(Why me Lord?)
Situation′s looking kinda bad
(Why me Lord?)
I lost the best girl I ever had
(Why me Lord?)
I′m homeless and I'm feelin′ kinda sad

(Why me? Why me? Why me?)
Why me? Why me, Lord?
(How you 'member massa God so quick?)
Why me, Lord?
(When trouble tek you pickney shirt a fit)
Why me, Lord?
(Is just because you don′t know when to quit?)
Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me?

(Why me? Why me, Lord? Why me? Why me, Lord?)
(Why me? Why me, Lord? Why me?)
Why me? Why me? Why me?

(Why me? Why me, Lord? Why me? Why me, Lord?)
(Why me? Why me, Lord? Why me?)
Why me? Why me? Why me?

Just the other day when I was rolling with my crew
I made a little flex around by Flatbush Avenue
I'm calling to some honies and we′re sipping on my brew
That's when I saw the boys in blue


They pulled me to the side, why, I don't even have a clue
And looking for a reason and they finally found a few
A case of ammunition with a loaded 32
I can′t believe what I′m going through

Why me, Lord?
(Here I am, I gotta face the time)
Why me, Lord?
(Though the evidence ain't even mine)
Why me, Lord?
(I swear, I ain′t guilty of the crime)

(Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me?)
Why me? Why me? Why me, Lord?
(How you 'member massa god so quick?)
Why me, Lord?
(When trouble tek you pickney shirt a fit)
Why me, Lord?
(Is just because you don′t know when to quit?)
Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me?

(Why me? Why me, Lord? Why me? Why me, Lord?)
(Why me? Why me, Lord? Why me?)
Why me? Why me? Why me?
(Why me? Why me, Lord? Why me? Why me, Lord?)
(Why me? Why me, Lord? Why me?)
Why me? Why me? Why me?

Take heed, never take advantage of the things you need
Never let yourself be overcome by greed
Walk the straight and narrow and you shall succeed
Get your act up to speed

And try no matter what it takes to give a next man a blye
Everybody else deserve a piece of the pie
Honesty the best policy, no sell, no samfie
You no need fi ta ask why

(Why me? Why me, Lord? Why me? Why me, Lord? Why me?)
(Why me, Lord? Why me?)
Why me? Why me? Why me?
(Why me? Why me, Lord? Why me? Why me, Lord?)
(Why me? Why me, Lord? Why me?)
Why me? Why me? Why me?
