I THOUGHT ABOUT....

I thought about the days of yore

Yes, I thought about the times before. 

I thought about the times I had

Whether times were good or times were bad.

I thought about the girls I loved

And even so my God above.

I thought about the things my mother taught me 

Rather than about the things she bought me.

I thought about my history

Oh what a mess the black slavery.

I thought about the crimes I did

Running and gunning like Billy the Kid.

I thought about my dearly departed

How they left too soon and now I'm brokenhearted.

Last, but not least

I thought about my destiny,

How I would die

You know-- the end of me.
