Run (Run-D.M.C.) - Paul Revere lyrics

[Produced by Rick Rubin and Beastie Boys] [Ad-Rock] Now here's a little story I've got to tell About three bad brothers you know so well It started way back in history With Ad-Rock, M.C.A. (and me) Mike D [Ad-Rock] Been had a little horsey named Paul Revere Just me and my horsey and a quart of beer Riding across the land, kicking up sand Sheriff's posse on my tail cause I'm in demand One lonely Beastie I be All by myself without nobody The sun is beating down on my baseball hat The air is getting hot, the beer is getting flat Lookin for a girl, I ran into a guy His name was MCA, I said, "howdy", he said, "hi" [Ad-Rock] He told a little story that sounded well rehearsed Four days on the run and that he's dying of thirst The brew was in my hand and he was on my tip His voice was hoarse, his throat was dry, he asked me for a sip He said, "Can I get some?", I said, "You can't get none!" Had a chance to run and pulled out his shotgun Quick on the draw, I thought I'd be dead He put the gun to my head and this is what he said [MCA] Now my name is MCA I've got a license to k** I think you know what time it is it's time to get ill Now what do we have here, an outlaw and his beer I run this land, you understand, I made myself clear [Ad-Rock] We stepped into the wind, he had a gun, I had a grin You think this story's over but it's ready to begin [MCA] Now I got the gun - you got the brew You got two choices of what you can do It's not a tough decision as you can see I can blow you away or you can ride with me [Ad-Rock] I said, I'll ride with you if you can get me to the border The sheriff's after me for what I did to his daughter I did it like this, I did it like that I did it with a wiffleball bat So I'm on the run; the cop's got my gun And right about now it's time to have some fun The King Ad-Rock, that is my name And I know the fly spot where they got the champagne We rode for 6 hours then we hit the spot The beat was a bumping & the girlies was hot This dude was staring like he knows who we are We took the empty spot next to him at the bar MCA said, "ayo, you know this kid?" I said, I didn't, but I knew he did The kid said, "get ready cause this ain't funny My name's Mike D and I'm about to get money." Pulled out the jammy, aimed it at the sky He yelled, "stick 'em up" and let two fly Hands went up and people hit the floor He wasted two kids that ran for the door "I'm Mike D and I get respect Your cash and your j**elry is what I expect" MCA was with it & he's my ace So I grabbed the piano player & I punched him in the face The piano player's out, the music stopped This boy had beef, and he got dropped Mike D. grabbed the money MCA snatched the gold I grabbed two girlies and a beer that's cold
