I never held a gun in my hand
What am I doing here?
What is everybody staring at?
Why do I feel so tired?
Can't walk, can't run from a man with a gun
Pointing it at me
My blood on the ground, my death in his eyes
Is all that I can see
I was getting so tired of feeling
Feeling like a loser
Watching all the neighborhood children
And the pushers and the users
If a man should die as a man has lived
Then this is not me
But if a man should be as a man believes
Don't worry mama I'm free
Don't worry mama I'm free from the bad boys
Don't worry mama I'm free
Don't worry mama I'm free from the rent man
Don't worry mama I'm free
Don't worry mama I'm free from the police
Don't worry mama I'm free
Don't worry mama I'm free from the ghetto
Don't worry mama I'm free
All I did was talk to the man
I only went to warn him
Tell him 'bout the children playing in the street
I never meant to harm him
I couldn't believe when he turned and said
"Tell his life he's gonna lose it"
And with a look in his eyes he shot me dead and said
"If you're packing better use it"
Don't worry mama I'm free from the bad boys
Don't worry mama I'm free
Don't worry mama I'm free from the police
Don't worry mama I'm free
Don't worry mama I'm free from the rent man
Don't worry mama I'm free
Don't worry mama I'm free from the ghetto
Don't worry mama I'm free
Don't worry mama I'm free from the bad boys
Don't worry mama I'm free
Don't worry mama I'm free from the police
Don't worry mama I'm free
Don't worry mama I'm free from the rent man
Don't worry mama I'm free
Don't worry mama I'm free from the ghetto
Don't worry mama I'm free
