So sly, the way you   move,   Like a hungry cat   prowling underneath   the moon,   So I must chase the   game,   Through the jungle of   confusion one more   day.     Big Daddy, he runs this   town,   Uses guns and pills   and powders just to   keep us down,   But I won't make that   deal,   Got a mind full of   muscle and a heart of   railroad steel.     Six is nine,   Black is white,   Walking through the   night of strange   delight,   One step over the line.     Operator, get me   higher ground,   In muddy water and I   fear that I might   drown,   There's a wind a-   blowing, fit to blow   me clean away,   And the night's so   wounded, keeps   bleeding into the day.     Six is nine,   Black is white,   Walking through the   night of strange   delight,   One step over the line.     Big Mama, you run this   town,   I give you long-necked   bottles and you turn   'em upside down,   But I'm gonna make   your deal,   Got a mind full of   muscle and a heart of   railroad steel.     Six is nine,   Black is white,   Walking through the   night of strange   delight,   One step over the line
