Kid Rock - Prodigal Son Lyrics
Cuz growin up I was never the logical one
packed my shit and left home like the prodigal son
with a bottle of jack and my shotgun strapped
I went looking for fame and yo I've never been back
filled with spite staying high as a kite
pool hustling trying to make that green
I've been ramblin and gamblin since the age of 13
working like a bitch like a god damn tank
some disagree because me rents had bank
but all that's gold non't always glitter
so I'll take another puff from my one hitter
I'm a slave tot he trade I'm paid to rhyme
blow all my cash on cheap women and wine
cause money, money, money ain't shit to me
but I gotta make a lot just to be free
If you'd just stop the world cause I wanna get off
there's too much hardship there's too much pain
there's too many motherfuckers tryin to get in my brain
I've been to your mountains I've been to your seaside
and everywhere I went somebody's wanted a free ride
but parasites can't fake the Rock
and any suckers that step in my way are getting shot
cause I hold key to my own success
and suckers that step shall be put to rest
yes, I hold the key to my own success
and suckers that step will catch a bullet in their chest,
so pass the buddha the funky tie hooter
and watch me rip because I'm such a slick shooter.
not a generic dime a dozen M.C.
never was in a posse never wanted to be
now I've neen walkin the earth since the beginning of ti
and won't leave till I've received that 7th sign
all this talk their gonna drop the bomb,
but life keeps going on and on and on and on
the world's end don't worry me
and I'm gonna get where I'm going just hurry me
cause I'm in no rush and I can't stand rushin
everything is slow motion like I'm trippin on tussin
fussin with the girls they waste my time
thrashin and bashin going out of my mind
crucified by the critics everyday
cause I ain't really got that much to say
I'm a slave to the trade I'm paid to rhyme
I don't wear a watch and i don't keep time
I live my life just like the skipper
but only at night because I'm a day tripper
twitchin-shakin like corky shootin smack
but still life goes on
visions of red shoot through my head
and I won't stop trippin till the day I'm dead.

Kid Rock Still CRUSHING in 2020 !!
Love this song! Thanks for sharing.
2:17 your own key to success? Did you get that idea from Revelation?
1:11 everywhere like Jesus?
Hell yeah, you gonna learn.
Not sure if he gets more base than John Paul Jones tho.
Were all slaves to the trade
Its like 8th grade 2001 all over again
I need to go home 😢😝😝😝💪💪💪💪🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺#happy2020
I farted
Why isn’t this song on Spotify? Anyone? Thanks in advance!
it was this summer, they took the album off
Patrick R u serious? Any idea why?
The rytm is so so
The words are great
And rap îs Good😀😀
Never have been much of a Kid Rock fan. However... the opening riff is just bad ass! And as a musician, I just had to play along. So. Much. Fun!!!!!! What a tune.
You got that right fucking hour
Bobby get your ass back up here to good ol Montana. We are ready for ya. It's been too damn long
Such a underrated song
When my kid finally asks me what "Legend"
Means, I'ma show him this song, And 15 years later when I'm gone he will understand. ✊ Love ya Neo
kid rock just announced that hes planning a new album/tour. I hope he comes back with this kind of hell raising music. 🤘
WHAT'S THE NAME OF THE ALBUM AND TOUR?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Trashing n bashin going outta my mind
Fkn gay retarded millennials, will never be able to relate
This song says everything about me
Love kid rock
This album will always have a special place in my heart, also Devil Without A Cause. Lying on my couch after a visit to Sam The Record, blowing out my eardrums listening to this album on my Discman
I remember blasting this cd in Denver in 2000!! Love this song!
Too much bullshit, and too much pain,
🔥🔥🔥
they took this off spotify so i’m here
Jake Kenslow they took it off everywhere. Can’t get it on iTunes either
pelzer99 same thing with early morning stoned pimp
Changing king pins
Onley god knows why
No lyrics? Fuck you
People say he sold out to country, I say he just became a awesome song writer and singer in that Genre too. Just shows his versatility and musical talent, he just got older and deeper. My absolute Favorite Artist of all-Time. I still Love his old stuff, Im sure he knows his fans love his old school Rap- Rock and will cut some more in the future. Thats just Kid. Cocaine and Gin is an Awesome song, but thats what happens when you start hanging out with Legends like Hank Jr.
I love this OLD SCHOOL !
Very talented.
Many many nights she comes to me
Kid motha fuckin Rock baby!
Gotta get the one from that movie Jesus son
"Never was in a posse, Never wanted to be!" Sage advice Indeed!!!
Bad ass song

Mr Kid Rock..Hank Williams Jr is going to be in Morgantown West By God Virginia
Mylan Park venue August 23 ...home of the WVU Mountaineers where the mascot gets to fire a musket during games.. way cool.. and I think the mountaineer gets more tail than the football players.. it's the musket ... Imagine that.. only in West Virginia..
where some still think we only have outdoor plumbing... We have a two-seater outback ... Just had to put that out there.. I use a lot of sarcasm when I converse with people.. I tell everybody that you're going to be my next ex-husband.. I always get a good laugh.. sarcasm it is wonderful thing ...when you can make people smile and even better laugh.. I stay away from the ones that look at me dumbfounded... I'll let everybody know Hanks going she be here via my story on Facebook I also stated that if we are lucky Bobby Ritchie AKA Kid Rock will make an appearance....I know due to the fish fry cancellation you two decided to do a few more Venues before you take a well deserved break..I think that is how you stated it.. I do agree you really went all out with your Greatest Show On Earth Tour..Saying all that I hope that if you're in the area or not will make a appearance .. sincerely Stephanie Johnson.. AKA.. your next ex wife..
"Never was in a posse, never wanted to be" 'Nuff Said!!!

If I was a history teacher, I would blast this album in front of the class!
Packed my shit left home
I really ain't got much to say
I may not totally agree with kid on some things, and some things maybe we were right there together in the trenches. But regardless the man sure knows how to rock, I'll give him that, and one of our freedoms is the right to agree to disagree. So fuckit, right or wrong, Rock on Kid Rock.
Cuz money money money ain't shit to me! But I gotta make a lot just to be free!
Fans want to see a second biker boys movie with kid rock with choppers. Or kid rock build a new chopper. For Daytona and Sturgis
