Kid Rock — U Dont Know Me

[Verse] Here here we go from Japan to Romeo My flow is slow and it's you know my first time on radio Now some say I'm foul, some say I'm wild And that all might be true But it did not happen overnight So let me tell my tale to you It started out when I was six just telling dirty jokes My mother overheard and washed my mouth out with soap Now as I grew I always knew what it was for me to do Never front just be blunt and always tell the truth Never fake, I never act like something that I'm not Remember me I'm that foul mouthed kid that lived around your block You thought that I was crazy like a dog chasing it's tail And by the time I turned of legal age I'd probably be in jail In school my teachers thought I was just a foul mouthed freak Now their yearly salary is what I make in just one week So to the people who used to say u think u know it all Maybe I do and maybe I don't but right now I'm standing tall... And you don't know me It's funny how one kid can because so much confusion Parents should be happy I'm the dop their kids are using Now some people think this business is all fame and glory But there's a flip side to that truth so let me kick my story It took me oh so long to reach the point I'm at Every time I take one step forward they push me two steps back I give an inch they take a mile some try to cramp my style They try to diss they shoot they miss I walk off with a smile But time will pass and I'll out last anyone who doubts me And the booty naked truth is u don't know shit about me So when I'm in your town to nearest mic please kindly show me So u can see what's really me and find out you don't know me Because you don't know me Now you might want to party man so here's your party jam Hey girly in that skirt I want ya just like Uncle Sam Let's knock boots, let's knock boots right down to the nitty gritty With every drink and every blink you seem to get more pretty So out the bar straight to my car now what's left to do She was saying I love u so I said yeah I love you to (Ha!) Next day I awoke I almost choked Who's bringing me inside My head was ringing heard people singing "here comes the bride" Thinking just what was I drinking as I looked around to see The girl I met last night was at the alter waiting on me Next thing I know I'm face to face with holy matrimony Looked at that bitch and I quick screaming You don't know me... She didn't know me Girls around this country think I'm nasty think I'm sexist But they bought my first L.P U know-Grits Sandwiches for Breakfast Saying ooh your this and oh your that uh uh uh hold up cutie What's your favorite song off that L.P "Ah, Wax that Booty" A lesson taught, I know you thought my dirty raps were kinda funny But close minded people thought I was only out to make money But check on back because it's a fact obscenity is no new thing Remember Chuck Berry and when he sang My Ding A Ling But for me I feel what I see and I say just what I feel And in this world everything I see you know is all too real Even though I don't look the same because I cut off my flat top I'll always say just what I feel because that's the real Kid Rock... And you don't know me
