The Quireboys - Whippin' Boy lyrics

Living in a cotton town When the Yankees came around They say you're freedom bound They say you're freedom bound Don't mean a thing yeah yeah yeah Cos there's no charity For my girl and me There aint no one free There aint no one free In Dixie Land (yeah yeah yeah) Whoah stand up Honey child You mean so much to me There's no way I'm gonna be No whippin' boy Woah stand up Honey child The truth is plain to see There's no way There's no way I'm gonna be No whippin' boy Cos I don't need no overseer And I don't need no nighttime tears And I don't need no one to tie me down There aint no way (there aint no way) I'm gonna be No whippin' boy Yeah yeah yeah, No whippin' boy baby Woah no whippin' boy baby Crossing the county line We may find peace of mind God knows what we'll find God knows what we'll find My girl and me yeah yeah yeah Cos all we have is pride No matter how they try Can't change what they keep inside Or what we keep inside It's a God given thing yeah yeah Woah stand up honey child You mean so much to me There's no way I'm gonna be No whippin' boy Woah stand up honey child The truth is plain to see There's no way there's no way I'm gonna be No whippin' boy Cos I don't need no overseer And I don't need no nightime tears And I don't need noone to tie me down There aint no way There aint no way I'm gonna be No whippin' boy Yeah yeah yeah No whippin' boy baby Woah no whippin' boy honey Woah no whippin' boy baby Woah yeah whoah yeah There aint no way There aint no way There aint no way No whippin' boy No whippin' boy baby There aint no way There aint no way
