|
I sat down and put a fifty on the bar |
|
A whisky and a beer, let's forget where we are |
|
And keep 'em coming till I drink that whole grant up |
|
Filling up that cup till I can't stand up |
|
Look around, see what the room's got |
|
Well there's Sunny by the jukebox |
|
Grab my drinks, headed over to say peace |
|
But had to think, do I owe him any late fees? |
|
Wait up nah, I'm all paid up huh |
|
Yeah I made it square last time I came up town |
|
What up Sunny? {What up?} How's business? |
|
{How you doing Sean? I ain't seen you in a couple of minutes} |
|
Man I just been working and jerking |
|
Tryna get the rent right and be perfect, how bout you? |
|
{Oh you know how the same old game go |
|
Hustle through the wind, rain, snow or tornado} |
|
Yeah bro, spent time catching up |
|
The bar tender kept the drinks fresh enough |
|
Good conversation, no pretension |
|
I drank up my whole fifty bucks and then some |
|
It was getting close to last call |
|
So I grabbed my coat and stood up like that's all |
|
But Sunny say {Hold up Sean, it's your day |
|
I need a favor, let me throw some money your way} |
|
I sat back down in the booth |
|
I said, I know your deal Sunny, what I gotta do? |
|
He said {I'll give you three-five piece of the pie |
|
If you pick up a package for me on the eastside tomorrow} |
|
Three and a half for an hour and a half |
|
Saint Paul and back's only ten dollars gas |
|
Yeah I can handle, give me all the info |
|
Only one thing though, I won't bring a pistol |
|
{Hahahah} He laughed and said {It ain't like that |
|
It's simple, grab the package and come right back |
|
It's a tattoo shop, it's called...} Shhh don't snitch |
|
{They some nice cats} Nice cats? {Cool as an icepack} |
|
Well alright jack {Discretion is a must |
|
Keep a hush, other than that I don't give a fuck} |
|
Cool, I got this, it's done like dinner |
|
And then I stepped out into the winter |
|
I got behind the wheel of my vehicle |
|
Streetlights shining on my face, you can see it glow |
|
The rearview reflection got clearer |
|
I starting talking to the image in the mirror |
|
I said, you should go back in and decline |
|
Sunny will understand, everything will be fine |
|
Sean calm down, get a grip, you're tripping |
|
I took a deep breath and put the key in the ignition |
|
Stop being a bitch now, man up |
|
Rolling down twenty-six with thoughts of handcuffs |
|
Pulled out on Lyndale, killed by a couple of drunks |
|
broad side of my pickup truck |
