We Ain't Goin' Nowhere

[Intro]

One, two, three, four, five

Sitting in the kitchen

Eating yellow rice and chicken

Watching Saturday morning cartoons

Tastes a little bland

Need a little pepper and

Hey, Anna, can you pour me some juice?

Super hot comb

Sittin' on a hot stove

'Cause my momma tried to straighten my hair

She whispered in my ear

"Be a Betsy, my dear

It's a different world out there."

And we're here

Gonna stay here

And if you don't like it, that's fair

But we're here

Gonna stay here

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

Nah, nah, nah, nah

We ain't ever goin' nowhere

Five years old

In my new school clothes

I was happy and was ready to play

They were talking to each other

Told me not to come no further

Said I couldn't be apart of the game

I didn't realize

'Til I got to senior high

That I wasn't like the rest of the class

Tried fitting in but I just couldn't win

Can you help me do the math?

And we're here

Gonna stay here

And if you don't like it, that's fair

But we're here

Gonna stay here

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

Nah, nah, nah, nah

We ain't ever goin' nowhere

(Nah niki nah ni nah ni nah

Niki nah niki nah ni aye!)

Going nowhere

(Nah niki nah ni nah ni nah

Niki nah niki nah ni aye!)

And we're here

Gonna stay here

And if you don't like it, that's fair

But we're here

Gonna stay here

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

We ain't goin' nowhere

Nah, nah, nah, nah

We ain't ever goin' nowhere
