Bag Lady (Lyrics) | Erykah Badu

Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go.







Bag lady, you gon' hurt your back

Dragging all them bags like that

I guess nobody ever told you

All you must hold on to

Is you, is you, is you


One day all them bags gon' get in your way

One day all them bags gon' get in your way

I said one day all them bags gon' get in your way

One day all them bags gon' get in your way


So pack light

Pack light

Pack light

Pack light

Ooh, ooh


Bag lady, you gon' miss your bus

You can't hurry up 'cause you got too much stuff

When they see you're comin', niggas take off runnin'

From you, it's true, oh, yes they do


One day he gon' say, "You're crowding my space"

One day he gon' say, "You're crowding my space"

I said one day he gon' say, "You're crowding my space"

One day he gon' say, "You're crowding my space"


So pack light

Pack light

Pack light

Ooh, ooh


Girl, I know sometimes it's hard

And we can't let go

Oh, when someone hurts you, oh, so bad inside

You can't deny it, you can't stop crying


So, oh, oh, oh

If you start breathing, yeah

You won't believe it, yeah

You'll feel so much better, so much better, baby


So where my garbage bag lady

(Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)


What about my grocery bag lady?

(Bet ya love could make it better)


I'm talking to my Gucci bag lady

(Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)


What about my paper sack lady?

(Bet ya love could make it better)


What about my nickel bag lady?

(Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)


Backpack on ya back, back lady

(Bet ya love could make it better)


What about my booty bag lady?

(Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)


And what about the cheeba sack babies?

(Bet ya love could make it better)


So what about the plastic bag lady?

(Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)


And my baby bag mamas, yeah

(Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)


All my book bag ladies

(Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)


Ziploc bag lady

(Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)


What about my Fendi bag ladies?

(Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)


All of my shopping bag ladies

(Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go)
