Low Rider |
He’s a rebel and an angel of the devil |
You can’t see him but he’s always on the level |
He’s a driver, a survivor from the law, oh yeah |
And if you cheat him, he will even up the score, oh |
He’s a traveller, an unraveler of your mind, yeah |
He’s the high priest, freedom is his only shrine, oh |
He’s the shadow, he can see behind your eyes |
He’s got the power, he’s like lightning from the skies |
He’s a low rider, oh, hey hey |
I said low rider, oh oh oh oh, hey |
He’s been down in the ground |
He’s been kicked and he’s been pushed around |
But now he’s coming back, coming back to claim his crown, hey, alright |
Rider passed by, rider passed by the local sheriff, uh |
Sheriff chased him, started chasing him with his gun |
The rider lost him, lost him in the backstreets, oh yeah |
Then he burned the town up, burned the town up just for fun |
Sheriff got mad, said: 'I'm gonna get thet rider' |
He couldn’t stand to see the rider running free |
He told the deputy: 'Go 'round up, up the posse, oh' |
He said to meet him outside Smokey Joe’s Cafe |
The rider came down through the town |
The sheriff’s men they cut him down |
Low rider, now they’ve finally got your crown |
I said: 'Ah!' |
Low rider, low rider … |
