Lyrics
I gotta heart and a soul
I possess a heart and a soul.
I gotta mind of my own
I have an independent mind.
And my spine aint weak
My character is strong, and I'm not easily influenced.
I gotta lazy streak
I have a tendency to be lazy.
Lately I said I've bin a winner
Recently, I've been successful.
Ladies all cook my dinner
Women prepare meals for me.
I'm set free I said don't blame me
I feel liberated, and I declare that I am not to be held responsible.
So don't blame me
Reiteration: I am not to be blamed.
We saved silver and gold
We kept and displayed our achievements in silver and gold.
To show how many we sold
To demonstrate our commercial success.
They look good when they shine
The material possessions look impressive when they gleam.
My mama polishes mine
My mother takes care of maintaining their shine.
I remember the time we hadn't a penny
I recall a time when we were very poor.
I thought we'd never have any
During that period, I doubted we'd ever have anything.
I'm set free so don't blame me
Reiteration: I am free, so don't hold me accountable.
No don't blame me
Reiteration: Do not attribute blame to me.

I remember the time we hadn't a penny
Recollection of a time when we had no money.
I thought we'd never have any
During that time, I doubted we'd ever have anything (repeated).
