it's hot and I'm walking
I could use a lift, my baby strutts beside me
looking pretty swift, she said have no car
I'm just another stiff, well I'm driving something
better yeah I got my riff....
no way to go threw life
without you got no riff..

It's late, 10;30 , missed my morning call
my boss goes crazy if I go to work at all..
long term survival aint no clever trick ,
when facing big disaster just grab your mountain stick

no way to go through life with out you got no riff,
go on and strutt your stuff no matter what it is,

lets get it all together, wont you go my way
don't worry bout tommorrow, just another day
your shaking on the ladder, feet about to fall
your riff is all you need, your back against the wall..

no way to go through life with out you got no riff
go on strutt your stuff no matter what it is,
no way to go through life without you got no riff,
lay down some attitude,
yeah you got the gift....

no way to go through life without..you got no riff
no way to go through life without..you got no riff...
