LYRICS
One twenty-six and St. Nick
Better be smart, better be quick
Ain’t no mercy on mean streets
Just angry eyes, long rap sheets
Danger on the corner, razors and knives
You learn young to stay alive
I’m a tough mother
Real tough mother
I’m a tough mother
Don’t you mess with me
Don’t you mess with me
Don’t you mess with me
Lost my daddy, just a little girl
Almost destroyed my whole world
Stepped right into his big shoes
Now I lost my mama too
She passed away way too young
But she lives in every song I’ve sung
In every song I’ve sung
In every song I’ve sung
I’m a tough mother
Real tough mother
I’m a tough mother
Don’t you mess with me
Don’t you mess with me
Don’t you mess with me
Don’t you mess with me
Survived those streets, drugs and guns
But the worst was yet to come
Something I couldn’t see
Was trying to be the death of me
But this time someone with a knife
Turned out to save my life
To save my life
Yes, to save my life
I’m a tough mother
Real tough mother
I’m a tough mother
Don’t you mess with me
Don’t you mess with me
Don’t you mess with me
Don’t you mess with me
Now I’ve got a son of my own
He’s gonna be strong
Gonna be a rollin’ stone
Yes a rollin’ stone
A rollin’ stone
A rollin’ stone
A rollin’ stone
Yes, a rollin’ stone
I’m a tough mother
Real tough mother
I’m a tough mother
Don’t you mess with me
Don’t you mess with me
Don’t you mess with me

I'd like to talk Shemekia into sharing a bottle of wine with me. (Hey, I've got manners!)
I'm sure she would oblige. I saw her at an intimate outdoor gig and she mingled with the crowd taking sips of drinks, bites of food and selfies. She was fun.
