Got a Thing on My Mind

[Chorus]
I got a thing on my mind
Sho'nuff gonna find it
I got a thing on my mind, yeah
Sho'nuff gonna find it

[Verse 1]
Don't let nobody tell me
My thing it won't come true
'Cause I ain't lying down 'til I get my dues

[Chorus]
I got a thing on my mind
I'm sho'nuff gonna find it
I got a thing on my mind
I'm sho'nuff gonna find it

[Verse 2]
Now good things don't come easy
Lord knows that I'm tried
'Cause I got what I got
'Cause better folks have died

[Chorus]
I got a thing on my mind
Sho'nuff gonna find it
I got a thing on my mind
Sho'nuff gonna find it

[Instrumental Break]

I got a thing on my mind
Sho'nuff gonna find it
I got a thing on my mind
I'm sho'nuff gonna find it

[Verse 3]
Some folks talking about a war on crime
I'm talking about a city, y'all
Where brothers don't have to steal to make a dime

[Chorus]
I got a thing on my mind
Sho'nuff gonna find it
I got a thing on my mind
I'm sho'nuff gonna find it
I got a thing on my mind
Sho'nuff gonna find it
I got a thing on my mind
I'm sho'nuff gonna find it
I got a thing on my mind
I'm sho'nuff gonna find it, hey
I got a thing on my mind
I'm sho'nuff gonna find it
