The Blues Brothers

Messin' With the Kid

What's this I hear

There's a whole lotta talk

The people say you try to quit the kid

Hey yeah

Tell me what you did

You can call it what you want

But I call it messin' with the kid

Now the kid plays hot

And hot don't pay

I say what I mean, I mean what I say

Yeah, yeah

Tell me what you did

You can call it what you want

But I call it messin' with the kid

Well tell me you love me

You tell me a lie

But I know I love ya baby, 'til the day I die

Hey yeah

Tell me what you did

You can call it what you want

But I call it messing with the kid

Elwood, Elwood!

-Yeah?

You wanna mess with the kid?

-Nah Jake, I don't wanna mess with the kid...

Yeah I know, I know that. How about you guys back here? You wanna mess with the kid? Any of you guys? How about you people out there you wanna mess with the kid?

Gonna take the kid's car

Drive around town

Tell everybody trying to put him down

Hey yeah

Tell me what you did

You can call it what you want

I call it messin' with the kid
