rude boy dreams
Everybody knows I'm a rude boy Walking the streets of dreams. Everybody knows I'm a rude boy Walking the streets of dreams.  I'm just an ordinary man With ordinary plans. I'm just an ordinary man With ordinary plans.  I had a dream last night That I was a rich man, But when I woke up this morning I found out I was a poor man.  I dreamt I was the president Living in a tent, But when I woke up this morning I was thrown out for not paying the rent.  No mama, no papa, and I live in the ghetto. I'm just a child from a broken home.
