Rate Paul Revere
Artist : Beastie boys Song : Paul revere Now here's a little story - I've got to tell
About three bad brothers - you know so well
It started way back in history
With Adrock, M.C.A., and me - Mike D.
Been had a little horsy named Paul Revere
Just me and my horsy and a quart of beer
Riding across the land - kicking up sand
Sheriff's posse on my tail cause I'm in
demand
One lonely Beastie I be
All by myself - without nobody
The sun is beating down on my baseball hat
The air is gettin' hot - the beer is getting
flat
Lookin' for a girl - I ran into a guy
His name is M.C.A., 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 sip
He said, "Can I get some?"
I said, "You can't get none!"
Had a chance to run
He pulled out his shotgun
He was 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 M.C.A. - I've 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 make
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 begin
"Now I got the gun - 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 me"
I 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 whiffleball bat
So I'm on the run - the cop's got my gun
And right about now - it's time to have some
fun
The King Adrock - that is my name
And I know the fly spot where they got the
champagne."
We rode for six hours the we hit the spot
The beat was a bumping and the girlies was
hot
This dude was staring like he knows who we
are
We took the empty spot next to him at the
bar
M.C.A. said, "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 that ran for the door
"I'm Mike D. and I get respect
Your cash and your jewelry is what I expect"
M.C.A. 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 dropped
Mike D. grabbed the money - M.C.A. snatched
the gold
I grabbed two girlies and a beer that's
cold.
