“I wish everybody knew/What's so great about you”
you don’t owe anyone
anything, child
until you pay you
pay yourself well, often, & true
everyone else can wait
they all have other things to do
you have you
child
you have you

[and then the Southern version]
child (you have you)
you don’t owe nobody
nothing, child
until you pay you
pay yourself well, often, & true
everyone else can wait
they all have other things to do
you have you
child
