The Ballad Of Cradle Rob And Me |
Saw Cradle playin' in the schoolyard one day |
Pretty young boy-I takes him home to play |
Soon we was hangin'-Venice alleyway |
Robbin' the cradle-No-Cradle Rob and me |
Rob and me lived on the same block |
He’s kinny garden |
I in knee socks |
He goin' play doctor over by the docks |
Robbin' the cradle-No-Cradle Rob and me |
Cradle’s still fresh in junior high |
Rob ain’t so fresh at fourteen |
Me, I was just the last word |
Ooo have you heard the heresay |
I was robbin' the cradle |
No, it wasn’t that way |
I 'member one day back in seventy-four |
When Cradle’s mamma said it wasn’t cute no more |
I was three years too old for them to ignore |
She said I was robbin' the cradle |
But it was Cradle Rob and me |
We hung around about a year after that |
'Til Rob found another girl to put his hair in plaits |
And I said, «Girl, don’t you worry me |
And we’ll have none of that» |
Robbin' the cradle-no-Cradle Rob and me |
Crae’s semi fresh in college now |
Rob ain’t so fresh at nineteen |
Me, well I’m still the last word |
Ooo have your heard the heresay |
I was robbin' the cradle-no-it wasn’t that way |
Robbin' the cradle |
