Better Get It Right the First Time

Better Get It Right the First Time (最好第一次做对) - Rhiannon Giddens[00:00:00]

Written by:Rhiannon Giddens/Dirk Powell/Justin Harrington[00:00:00]

Young man was a good man[00:00:01]

Always went to school[00:00:04]

Young man was a good man[00:00:07]

Never played the fool[00:00:09]

Young man was a good man[00:00:13]

Never had no drama[00:00:15]

Young man was a good man[00:00:18]

Always took care of his mama[00:00:20]

Young man was a good man[00:00:29]

Hanging with his boys[00:00:32]

Young man was a good man[00:00:35]

Didn't know he'd made a choice[00:00:37]

Young man was a good man[00:00:40]

Only did it twice[00:00:43]

Young man was a good man[00:00:46]

But now he's paid the price[00:00:48]

Better get it right the first time[00:00:51]

Better get it right the first time[00:00:54]

Better get it right the first time[00:00:57]

Better get it right the first time[00:01:00]

Young man was a good man[00:01:25]

Did you stand your ground[00:01:28]

Young man was a good man[00:01:31]

Is that why they took you down[00:01:33]

Young man was a good man[00:01:36]

Or did you run that day[00:01:38]

Young man was a good man[00:01:42]

Baby they shot you anyway[00:01:44]

Better get it right the first time[00:01:47]

Better get it right the first time[00:01:50]

Better get it right the first time[00:01:53]

Better get it right the first time[00:01:55]

Oh we done seen it on the daily reposting obituary pages[00:01:58]

Losing beloveds they wanna change the subject[00:02:02]

It's nothing new for the blue[00:02:04]

Is it the who or the hue[00:02:05]

It's kids watching they fathers die when they pull up the tube[00:02:07]

We know enough to be cautious[00:02:10]

But honestly it's not simple[00:02:11]

Told to reach for yo' paper[00:02:12]

They think you strapped with a pistol[00:02:14]

I was chillin' had nothin' but good intentions[00:02:15]

I knew to achieve success had to learn to finesse the system[00:02:17]

It was gpas and test scores[00:02:20]

Had to be the best for[00:02:22]

College my only option[00:02:23]

My mama told me to prep for it[00:02:24]

So it was kinda tiresome stress[00:02:26]

Reddenin' my irises[00:02:28]

I got the invite to another function like finally[00:02:29]

Had to pull up with the homiest only pouring some soda[00:02:31]

I keep a clear head[00:02:34]

Seen enough to know how it goes[00:02:35]

But I noticed they getting louder[00:02:37]

Neighbors complain 'bout the noise[00:02:38]

Before I knew it heard someone yell out[00:02:40]

Run it's the boys[00:02:42]

I didn't know what direction[00:02:42]

I hit the curb and I run[00:02:44]

Everybody loud ain't hear'em[00:02:45]

Tell me put my hands up[00:02:47]

Headed towards the lights[00:02:48]

Someone screamed my name from behind[00:02:49]

I guess you better get it right the first time[00:02:51]
