Livin' in the backwoods, hills of Arkansas
Daddy was a drinkin' man, on the wrong side of the law
Mama didn't care too much, she left me with Grandma
I grew up kinda wild
Heard that still a hummin', down on the lower twenty
Saw those boys just runnin' wild, spending all that money
Grandma said, stay away from them. Life is not a game
Stay away from those boys. They're Raisin' Cain
Raisin' Cain. Yah I'm a Raisin' Cain
Runnin' with those boys make you insane
Raisin' Cain. Whoa I'm a Raisin' Cain
Say I'm breakin' the law, but I'm just Raisin' Cain
As you grow up to be a man, Ah your life it sure can change
Have a home and a family, try to make a name
There's one thing in your life that will never change
Raisin' Cain. Yah I'm a Raisin' Cain
Runnin' with those boys make you insane
Raisin' Cain. Whoa I'm a Raisin' Cain
Say I'm breakin' the law, but I'm just Raisin' Cain
Raisin' Cain. Yah I'm a Raisin' Cain
Runnin' with those boys make you insane
Raisin' Cain. Whoa I'm a Raisin' Cain
Say I'm breakin' the law, but I'm just Raisin' Cain
