Brodka They Say Im Different Lyrics

They say I'm different 'cause I'm a piece of sugar cane
Sweet to the core that's why I got rhythm
My great grandma didn't like the foxtrot
Nah, instead she'd spit her snuff and boogie till she was drive

They say I'm different 'cause I eat chitlins
I can't help it I was born and raised on 'em, that's right
Every mornin' I'd have to slop the hogs
And they'd be gettin' off humpin' to John Lee Hooker

They say I'm different 'cause I'm a piece of sugar cane
And when I kick my legs, I got rhythm
My great grandpa was a blues lover
He'd be rockin' his moonshine to B.B. King and Jimmy Reed, rock

And that's why they say I'm different
And that's why they say I'm strange

I'm talkin' 'bout Big Momma Thornton
I'm talkin' 'bout Lightning Hopkins
I'm talkin' 'bout Howling Wolf
I'm talkin' 'bout Albert King
Chuck Berry
Chuck Berry
Chuck Berry
When I was sweet sixteen

And that's why they say I'm different
And that's why you think I'm strange

I'm talkin' bout T-Bone Walker
I'm talkin' 'bout Muddy Waters
I'm talkin' 'bout Leadbelly
Sonny Terry
Brownie McGhee
And Freddie King

Bessie Smith
Bessie Smith
Oh hey
Bo Diddley have you heard me

That's why they say I'm different
That's why, why they say I'm strange
That's why they say I'm funky
Little Richard wow you sure showed 'em you sure could sing it

Robert Johnson
Robert Johnson
Robert Johnson
He played the blues for me

And that's why
And that's why
And that's why they say I'm different...

And that's why
And that's why
And that's why they say I'm strange...

And that's (why why why why)
And that's (why why why why)
And that's (why why why why)
(why why why why)
They say I'm funky, funky, funky, funky, funky, yeah
Ooh funky, funky, funky, funky, funky, yeah
