Now, my ace-boon-poon Was a young boy named Spoon My crime partner from the block He had served a bullet 'n a deuce And now they were cutting him loose From the joint they called the Rock We has hung out as kids Serving alternate bids In various reform schools and jails He was like my kid brother And we had helped one another 'til he was busted for some stolen goods sales When he finally came back on the scene His wardrobe was lean So i bought him some vines of his own
And then we lit up some smoke And snorted some coke And i dug how the brother had grown He was bigger and meaner And his mind was more keener And he had earned him a rep with his hands Plus he was eager to compete With the hustlers on the street For my man had ambitious plans I lent him a yard And copped him a rod A .38 blue steel piece Then we split to the Cafe Black Rose To party with some hoes And for dinner we ordered a feast
