Lyrics :

Rockets and moon shots
Spend it on the have nots
Money, we make it
Fore we see it you take it
And make you wanna holler
The way they do my life
And make me wanna holler
The way they do my life

Crime is increasing
Trigger happy policing
Panic keeps spreading
God knows where we're heading
And make me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands
And make me wanna holler
Yea throw up both my hands
Ohoo...

Piano Solo :

Hang ups and let downs
Bad breaks and set backs
Natural fact is
I can't pay my taxes
Oh, make me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands
It makes me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands

And throw up both my hands
The way they do my life
Oh, make me wanna holler
The way they do my life

Listen...oh here no good...
This ain't livin'...

Crime is still increasing
Trigger happy policing
Panic keep on spreading
God knows where we're heading
And make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
And you make wanna holler
The way they do my life

It was settin' backs...
Yea baby...

Just wonderful: the tune, it's atmosphere and the dynamic but also relaxed tension of Joe's interpretation.

[horusgeist]

I can still remember - thank You very much indeed Maestros Marvin and Joseph.

This brings me to tears😪Rest in Peace, Mr. Joe Cocker🌻🌈

[lildouche]

Joe just absolutely SLAYS every single jam he touches. I am always gonna mourn the loss of this grand artiste, every hour of every day. Love ya, Joe, and thank you for sharing your soul with us.

[janicerockwell]

Think on all things lovely, just, good etc.

[sambamachineryrecords]

THIS IS THE BEST VERSION of THIS TRACK WITHOUT A DOUBT ... WE MISS YOU JOE

[mochamochina]

Ya pasaban con mi adorado Freddie Mercury....!!!

[PoetBlues]

This is awesome! This performance took a song that was not one of my favorites, and made this one of my favorite performances--Joe, the band, the feeling, the rhythm!!

[pedroV]

The truly sad thing is that this song is as relevant as it was when it came out.

[BrownCoffe]

Who feels the saxphone in 5:30, it's amazing

[lallementbernardecrivain]

ça a l'authenticité du "I put a spell on you" sur scène de Nina Simone et du chant désespéré de "Blasé", d'Archie Sheep. Cri primal ? Hannibal devant les Alpes.
