Story behind the song
I woke up in an ALLEY. the rest is history.
Lyrics
original words and music by arell Spencer circa 2002 I WOKE UP in an ALLEY , and I wondered how I got there I had one mighty headache and I found blood in my hair.. oh when I tried to rise I wiped the blood from my eyes I saw I had no shoes. My SOCKS my socks they were gone too.. and does anybody know what's a boy to do?... I finally made it to the street then I had to take a breather man said he hated whities said I did'nt like 'em neither.. oh when the taxi came sis laid the blame all over me when I complained sis said take heart you're safe and you're free when I complained sis said thank GOD you're safe and you're free Now I'm always gettin' into all kinds of trouble I guess the only way to stop it is to put me in a bubble now I'm not too sure just how much more this old boy can take sometime it seems to me as if my hearts gonna break sometimes to me it seems as if my heart is gonna break

Now this is a great song - love the lyric and the way you made it work - nice phrasing. Quality singing once again - really good.
