Back To My Roots 17 Version lyrics

this is a special shot going out to my mama, ms. ernestine charles.

mama used to do people hair in the kitchen,

press and curl, hot curlers, everything,

i love you mama



black hair is a revolution

cornrows...uh,uh honey, i am tender-headed

jheri curls...style sophistication

afro puff...ah ooh ah, ah ooh ah

hair weave...call her miss ross

braids...pride, respect

extensions...more of a 90’s fashion

asymmetrical shroom...banji girl



i’m going back, back, back to my roots

where my love can be found and my heart rings true

i’m going back, back, back to my roots

to the time and the place, coming back to you



black hair is a revolution

finger wave...a classic extravaganza

press and curl...never mix, never worry

flat top fade...very contemporary

nail sculpture...urban distinction

hot comb...ouch mama, that was my ear

blow out kits...oh, oh tamba

no lye relaxer...fried dyed and laid to the side



i’m going back, back, back to my roots

where my love can be found and my heart rings true

i’m going back, back, back to my roots

to the time and the place, coming back to you



now mama got her own salon down on auburn ave,

and if you wanna know what’s happening in atlanta

just go to the salon, that’s to you and all y’all down there,

brothers and sisters, miss earlene, lizzy dean, renetta,

little baby boy, tone tone, leo-nard, k-ron, cornisha

peace to all my brothers and sisters,

peace, love and hair grease.
