| Take me back to the man who never gave a damn, coolin' on the corner with a
|
| coolie in his hand
|
| He jump up, they got two, they call it General Electric, pushin' germ on the
|
| street, and gettin' affected
|
| He was older than y’all, we called him seventy-three, pitched up, cracked up,
|
| one time with me
|
| And he never gave a damn about a cop, but they all knew his name when we got
|
| locked up
|
| Take me back…
|
| If anybody wants to sell some crack, and everybody here has got your back
|
| Do these stardust dreams seem obscene, if god and country left you flat
|
| Cocaine and sneakers, hundreds of both, throw your money on the fire,
|
| and you turn up toast
|
| Shell-toes and Lee’s, BVD’s and freeze, these are a few of my favorite things
|
| Take me back… |
