Verse 2 : Hot licks and rhetoric don't count much for nothing Be glad if you can use what you borrow. So I pawn my crown, for a ride uptown and buy it back tomorrow . Verse 3 : Done like a matador, I pray for the weekend and hope the little girls still throw roses Else I change my bait, and move upstate before the season closes .
