Yeah, I left my wallet in El Segundo |
|
Left my wallet in El Segundo |
|
Left my wallet in El Segundo |
|
I gotta get it, I got-gotta get it |
|
I left my wallet in El Segundo |
|
Left my wallet in El Segundo |
|
Left my wallet in El Segundo |
|
I gotta get it, I got-gotta get it |
|
My mother went away for a month-long trip |
|
Her and some friends on an ocean-liner ship |
|
She made a big mistake by leaving me home |
|
I had to roam so I picked up the phone |
|
Dialed Ali up to see what was going down |
|
Told him I pick him up so we could drive around |
|
Took the Dodge Dart, a '74 |
|
My mother left a yard but I needed one more |
|
Shaheed had me covered with a hundred greenbacks |
|
So we left Brooklyn and we made big tracks |
|
Drove down the Belt, got on the Conduit |
|
Came to a toll, we paid and went through it |
|
Had no destination, we was on a quest |
|
Ali laid in the back so he could get rest |
|
Drove down the road for two days and a half |
|
The sun had just risen on a dusty path |
|
Just then a figure had caught my eye |
|
A man with a sombrero who was four feet high |
|
I pulled over to ask were we was at |
|
His index finger he tipped up his hat, "El Segundo" |
|
He said, "My name is Pedro |
|
If you need directions, I'll tell you pronto" |
|
Needed civilization, some sort of reservation |
|
He said a mile south, there's a fast food station |
|
Thanks, senor, as I start up the motor |
|
Ali said, "Damn, Tip, why you drive so far for?" |
|
Well describe to me what the wallet looks like? |
|
Anyway a gas station we passed |
|
We got gas and went on to get grub |
|
It was a nice little pub in the middle of nowhere |
|
Anywhere would have been better |
|
I ordered enchiladas and I ate 'em |
|
Ali had the fruit punch |
|
When we finished we thought for ways to get back |
|
I had a hunch, Ali said, "Pay for lunch", so I did it |
|
Pulled out the wallet and I saw this wicked beautiful lady |
|
She was a waitress there, put the wallet down and stared and stared |
|
To put me back into reality, here's Shaheed |
|
"Yo, Tip, man, you got what you need?" |
|
I checked for keys and started to step |
|
What do you know, my wallet I forget |
|
Yo, it was a brown wallet, it had props numbers |
|
Had my Jimmy hats I got to get it man |
|
Lord, have mercy |
|
The heat got hotter, Ali stars to curse me |
|
I fell bad but he makes me feel badder |
|
Chit-chit-chatter, car stars to scatter |
|
Breaking on out, we was Northeast bound |
|
Jettin' on down at the speed of sound |
|
Three days coming and three more going |
|
We get back and there was no slack |
|
490 Madison, we're here, Sha |
|
He said, "All right, Tip, see you tomorrow" |
|
Thinking about the past week, the last week |
|
Hands go in my pocket, I can't speak |
|
Hopped in the car and torpe'ed to the shack |
|
Of Shaheed, "We gotta go back" when he said |
|
"Why?" I said, "We gotta go |
|
'Cause I left my wallet in El Segundo" |
|
Yeah, I left my wallet in El Segundo |
|
Left my wallet in El Segundo |
|
Left my wallet in El Segundo |
|
I gotta get it, I got-gotta get it |
|
I left my wallet in El Segundo |
|
Left my wallet in El Segundo |
|
Left my wallet in El Segundo |
|
Come on, let's go |
|
Come on, let's go |
|
Come on, let's go |
