    Lyrics:
    Stop your messing around (ah-ah-ah)
    Better think of your future (ah-ah-ah)
    Time you straighten right out (ah-ah-ah)
    Creating problems in town (ah-ah-ah)
    Rudy
    A message to you, Rudy
    A message to you
    Stop your fooling around (ah-ah-ah)
    Time you straighten right out (ah-ah-ah)
    Better think of your future (ah-ah-ah)
    Else you'll wind up in jail (ah-ah-ah)
    Rudy
    A message to you, Rudy
    A message to you
    Stop your messing around (ah-ah-ah)
    Better think of your future (ah-ah-ah)
    Time you straighten right out (ah-ah-ah)
    Creating problems in town (ah-ah-ah)
    Rudy
    A message to you, Rudy
    A message to you, Rudy
    Oh, it's a message to you, Rudy
    Yeah, it's a message to you, Rudy

      Music brings like minded poeple together in spirit. Your generation needs an anthem, if not, there are plenty of them going back to the very beginning of recorded music history.

    I have to credit this song a little bit. I first began listening to it in 1979 at age 15, around the same time I was hanging around some bad influences. Whenever I was getting in trouble or close to it, this song echoed in my mind. Eventually I obeyed the warning and abandoned the ne'erdowells. I went my way alone and did good things with my life. 😊
