I got up this morning And I put on my shoes I tied my shoes Then I washed my face I went to the mirror For to comb my head I made a move Didn't know what to do I tipped way forward Got to break and run
Baby, this ain't me Baby, this ain't me Got so ugly I don't even know myself
I left Angola 1964 Go walking down my street Knock on my baby's door My baby come out She asks me who I am And I say, honey, Don't you know your man? She said my man's been gone Since 1942 And I'll tell you Mr. Ugly, He didn't look like you
