U don't know me
par Kid Rock

Here here we go from Japan to Romeo
my flow is slow and it´s ya know my first time on radio
Now some say I´m foul, some say I´m wild
and that all might be true
but it did not happen overnight
so let me tell my tale to you
It started out when I was six just tellin´ dirty jokes
my mother overheard and washed my mouth out with soap
Now as I grew I always knew what it was for me to do
never front just be blunt and always tell the truth
Never fake, I never act like something that I´m not
remember me I´m that foul mouthed kid that lived around your block
You thought that I was crazy like a dog chasin it´s tail
and by the time I turned of legal age I´d probably be in jail
In school my teachers thought I was just a foul mouthed freak
now their yearly salary is what I make in just one week
So to thepeople who used to say u think u know it all
maybe I do and maybe I don´t but right now I´m standin tall...
And u don´t know me
It´s funny how one kid can cause so much confusion
Parents should be happy I´m the dop their kids are using
Now some people think this business is all fame and glory
but there´s a flip side to that truth so let me kick my story
It took me oh so long to reach the point I´m at
Every time I take one stip forward they push me two steps back
I give an inch they take a mile some try to cramp my style
they try to diss they shoot they miss
I walk off with a smile
But time will pass and I´ll out last anyone who doubts me
and the booty naked truth is u don´t know shit about me
So when I´m in your town to nearst mic please kindly show me
so u can see what´s really me and find out u don´t know me
Cuz u don´t know me
Now u might wanna party man so here´s your party jam
Hey girly in that skirt I want u just like Uncle Sam
Let´s knock boots, let´s knock boots right down to the nitty gritty
with every drind ´n every blink u seem to get more pretty
So out the bar straight to my car now what´s left to do
she was sayin I love u so I said yeah I love you to
(Ha!)
Next day I awoke I almost choked
who´s bringin me inside,
my head was ringin´ heard people singin´ "here comes the bride"
Thinkin just what was I drinkin as I looked around to see
the girl I met last night was at the alter waitin on me
Next thing I know I´m face to face with holy matrimony
looked at that bitch and I quick screamiN´
u don´t know me...She didn´t know me
Girls around this country think I´m nasty think I´m sexist
but they bought my first L.P.
u know-Grits Sandwiches for Breakfast
Sayin ooh your this and oooh your that uh uh uh hold up cutie
What´s your favorite song off that L.P.
"Ah, Wax that Booty"
A lesson taught, I know you thought my dirty raps were kinda funny
but close minded people thought I was only out to make money
But check on back cuz it´s a fact obscenity is no new thing
remember Chuck Berry and when he sang My Ding A Ling
But for me I feel what I see and I say just what I feel
and in this world everything I see u know is all too real
Even though I don´t look the same cuz I cut off my flat top
I´ll always say just what I feel cuz that´s the real Kid Rock...
And u don´t know me.
