Rude Boy - The Skatalites

Verybody knows I’m a rude boy

Walking the streets of dreams

Everybody knows I’m a rude boy

Walking the streets of dreams

I’m just an ordinary man

With ordinary plans

I’m just an ordinary man

With ordinary plans

Everybody knows I’m a rude boy

Walking the streets of dreams

Everybody knows I’m a rude boy

Walking the streets of dreams

I had a dream last night

That I was a rich man

But when I woke up this morning

I found out I was a poor man

Everybody knows I’m a rude boy

Walking the streets of dreams

Everybody knows I’m a rude boy

Walking the streets of dreams

I dreamt I was the president

Living in a tent

But when I woke up this morning

I was thrown out for not paying the rent

Everybody knows I’m a rude boy

Walking the streets of dreams

Everybody knows I’m a rude boy

Walking the streets of dreams

No mama, no papa, and I live in the ghetto

I’m just a child from a broken home
