Real hot, in the shade

verse:
said it was 96 degrees in the shade
ten thousand soldiers on parade
taking iodine to greet the big fat sour one
sent from overseas
the queen implied
excellency before you i come
with my representation
you know where i'm coming from
you caught me on the loose
fighting to be free
now you show me a noose
on the cotton tree
entertainment for you
but too dumb for me
96 degrees in the shade
real hot, in the shade
96 degrees in the shade
real hot, in the shade
verse:
some may suffer and some may burn
but i know that one day my people will learn
as sure as the sun shines, way up in the sky
today i stand here a victim, the truth is I'll never die
96 degrees in the shade
real hot, in the shade
96 degrees in the shade
real hot, in the shade
