Now here's a little story I got to tell |
|
About three bad brothers you know so well |
|
It started way back in history |
|
With Ad Rock, MCA, and me, Mike DBeen had a little horsey named Paul Revere |
|
Just me and my horsey and a quart of beer |
|
Riding across the land, kicking up sand |
|
Sheriff's posse's on my tail 'cause I'm in demandOne lonely Beastie I be |
|
All by myself, without nobody |
|
The sun is beatin' down on my baseball hat |
|
The air is gettin' hot, the beer is gettin' flatLookin' for a girl, I ran into a guy |
|
His name is MCA, I said, "Howdy," he said, "Hi"He told a little story that sounded well rehearsed |
|
Four days on the run and that he's dying of thirst |
|
The brew was in my hand and he was on my tip |
|
His voice was hoarse, his throat was dry, he asked me for a sipHe said, "Can I get some?" I said, "You can't get none" |
|
And I had a chance to run, he pulled out his shotgun |
|
Quick on the draw, I thought I'd be dead |
|
He put the gun to my head and this is what he said"Now my name is MCA, I got a license to kill |
|
I think you know what time it is, it's time to get ill |
|
Now what do we have here? An outlaw and his beer? |
|
I run this land, you understand? I made myself clear"We stepped into the wind, he had a gun, I had a grin |
|
You think this story's over but it's ready to beginNow I got the gun and you got the brew |
|
You got two choices of what you can do |
|
It's not a tough decision as you can see |
|
I can blow you away or you can ride with meI said, "I'll ride with you if you can get me to the border" |
|
The sheriff's after me for what I did to his daughter |
|
I did it like this, I did it like that |
|
I did it with a whiffle ball batSo I'm on the run, the cop got my gun |
|
And right about now, it's time to have some fun |
|
The King Ad Rock, that is my name |
|
And I know the fly spot where they got the champagneWe rode for six hours then we hit the spot |
|
The beat was a-bumpin' and the girlies was hot |
|
This dude was starin' like he knows who we are |
|
We took the empty spot next to him at the barMCA said, "Yippee yo, you know this kid?" |
|
I said, "I didn't but I know he did" |
|
The kid said, "Get ready 'cause this ain't funny |
|
My name's Mike D and I'm about to get money"Pulled out the jammy, aimed it at the sky |
|
He yelled, "Stick 'em up!" and let two fly |
|
Hands went up and people hit the floor |
|
He wasted two kids then ran for the doorI'm Mike D and I get respect |
|
Your cash and your jewelry is what I expectMCA was with it and he's my ace |
|
So I grabbed the piano player and I punched him in the face |
|
The piano player's out, the music stopped |
|
His boy had beef and he got droppedMike D grabbed the money, MCA snatched the gold |
|
I grabbed two girlies and a beer that's cold |
