I'm struttin' down the boulevard, I stop and grab a drink The pusher man comes sliddin' up, says boy got what you need I got ups and I got downs, the whites and the greens Do you toke or do you smoke, I said man that ain't for me Just give me the beat That's all I need Just give me the beat That's all I need About that time a Cadillac comes bumpin' down the street Hits its breaks and pops the trunk, says this you got to see I've got chains and diamond rings, eight tracks and LP's Do you like my merchandise, said still that ain't for me Just give me the beat That's all I need Just give me the beat That's all I need Night loss(?) He throws his cape around my back, says kid just come with me You haven't seen my stable yet, got every kind of breed Step inside and meet the girls, Sheila and Janine Legs for days they go both ways, still that ain't for me Just give me the beat That's all I need Just give me the beat That's all I need
