Message To The Young - Howlin' Wolf

I got something I wanna tell all the young peoples

I got a message for you

I just thought that I would take my time

And rap what you thought of me

There’s a lot of things I wanna say

But I won’t be able to say all

But I can say a little bit

I wan’t you to know

This comes from the bottom of my heart

There’s so much confusion

Misunderstanding

Just plain bad rapping

A whole lot of bad rapping is going on

But I want you to keep faith

Believe in yourself

And believe in your leaders

Keep this in mind

Be an old woman

And be an old man

I got something I wanna tell you

A lot of people going around

Talking about people with long hair

But if you wanna wear your hair long

Wear your hair long

If you wanna wear your beard

Wear your beard

You wanna mustache

Wear it

Not only that

Wearing the kind of clothes you wanna wear

I got something else I wanna tell you

You good

You wanna wear your dresses short

Go on and wear your dresses short

I’ll appreciate it if no one else dont

Now I got somthing else I wanna tell you

Now did, now dig this

So much confusion is going around

I know you confused

But remember this

I’m with you

Sometimes you feel lonely

And dont know where to go

Thats why I sing the blues

Everybody know what im talking about

I feel that way sometimes myself

I’ve been playing blues for a long time

Thats why I sing the blues

Sometimes I just like to moan

So when I moan you know what I’m talking about

Yous see what I’m saying

You have to think about what I’m saying

Tell yourself

So know you be sweet till we meet again

Keep on loving yourself everybody

Love your mother and father

And thanks for letting me talk to you

You see what Im saying
