Crime in the streets

I read about it everyday in the papers

And justice needs and justice wants But just in times, yes, too late here

Oh, feels like I wasn't born there

(Feels like I wasn't born there)

I feel just like a Boogie Pilgrim, oh, huh, yeah Boogie Pilgrim, hustled to get it, to get it together

Down on the jive talk, down on the weather

Boogie Pilgrim, oh, brother I never felt better

No, I never felt better Low life's complete

When you've lived that way out on the sidewalk

(Walking on the sidewalk everyday)

Oh, I got the speed, baby, you got the need, ah,uh But the need in me needs nothing

(But you know that I need nothing)

But I know that you all want something

Oh, just like Boogie Pilgrim, Boogie Pilgrim Boogie Pilgrim, hustled to get it, to get it together

Down on the jive talk, down on the weather

Boogie Pilgrim, oh, brother I never felt better, yeah, I know I'm better

(Don't you know that I never felt better)

No, I'm never, never, never felt better

(Don't you know that I never felt better) Don't you know that I never felt better

Don't you know that I never felt better

Don't you know that I never felt better

Don't you know that I never felt better Boogie, Boogie, Boogie Pilgrim, yeah

Oh, lord I never felt better, yeah

(Don't you know that I never felt better) Ooh hoo, ooh hoo, ooh hoo

Boogie Pilgrim, hustled to get it, to get it together

Down on the jive talk, down on the weather

Boogie Pilgrim, yeah, lord I never, never felt better, yeah

(You know that I never felt better) Boogie Pilgrim, a Boogie Pilgrim

Oh, Boogie Pilgrim, a Boogie Pilgrim

A Boogie Pilgrim, a Boogie Pilgrim

A Boogie Pilgrim, a Boogie Pilgrim Boogie Pilgrim, Boogie Pilgrim

Boogie Pilgrim, Boogie Pilgrim

A Boogie Pilgrim, a Boogie Pilgrim

A Boogie Pilgrim, a Boogie Pilgrim
