Lyrics:
don't fall apart
I called 46 times
And you answered on the 47th
I called you 46 times
And you answered on the 47th
You tell me, you tell me, you've
sense, I'm only mortal
Her backside's the eighth wonder of the world
Everyone behind her is shaking to her beat
She just became maestro of 47th street
Memories
Oh
I am the first son of Betsy and Edward Mensa
Made love and made a legend, Woodlawn and 47th
Gunshots outside my window, drug deals
it up in time for me to get my bag
That was the morning trip, Imma get em on the way back
So the school bus picked us up from 47th and Dan
Drove us
rock solid
47th always had a bit of a crowd ‘cuz the copacabana played their music real loud
I was feeling so solid...feeling rock solid
So I gave
ignorance
Get 'em
Don't forget the heat (watch out)
They might catch you lacking (watch out)
On 47th street (watch out)
By your mama address (watch
on the lake
But again, I didn't let that scare me
I went to 63rd
We used to say that 47th Street was so dangerous that if you died
Your parents may not come
me the trust issues get to my head
I'm just sitting in this condo on the 47th floor
Looking out to lights, asking myself "girl what you got in store?"
caught holdin' the bacon
When they're droppin' a piano from the 47th floor
I'm the guy underneath it lookin' up
And when the tidal wave strikes 100 miles
I see your teeth flash, Jamaican honey so sweet
Down where Lexington cross 47th Street
Oh she's a big girl, she's standing six-foot three
Turning
I see your teeth flash, Jamaican honey so sweet
Down where Lexington cross 47th Street
Oh she's a big girl, she's standing six-foot three
Turning
I see your teeth flash, Jamaican honey so sweet
Down where Lexington cross 47th Street
Oh she's a big girl, she's standing six-foot three
Turning
I see your teeth flash, Jamaican honey so sweet
Down where Lexington cross 47th Street
Oh she's a big girl, she's standing six-foot three
Turning
this evening
From the top of the 47th and just fall to the cement
For the entire police quadrant and fire department to see it
Would my disembodied
Chicago
Discovered by du Sable
A Black Frenchman
That I had to mention
Extensions of a young man livin' on a low end
47th and Michigan, lackin'
leave up out the crew
The Lonely Island, the 47th president of these United States!
And today as The Lonely Island was beaten to death with their own
solo tonight
Just keep on thinkin marco polo for life when you're...
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
What's the paseo hah
49th street
On 47th is gates
Once upon a time
Down on 47th street
I met a fine chick
Tried to knock her off her feet
Now all alone
I thought she was playin'
And didn't know that
Jerome
One time for my uncle Jerome
In the basement smoking cigarettes with Tyrique
I think we did that when unc' wasn't home
47th and Lloyd, first
Off of Kenzie she stay right in the high rise
Got a baby by a nigga, he's from my side
Used to work on 47th at the Popeye's
Big sis went to Tilden
to God I'm still alive
Put your lighters up
Let me take you where I was
Southside ain't safe outside
Seen a nigga standing on 47th street with a black
And I thank all of yall who supported the 'These Days Tour'
For 47 cities there's 47 Bars
And this is the 47th bar
Harry, what a waste
Couldn't even get a small-town taste
Rode the trolleys down 47th
Figured he was good to get himself to heaven
He had to run, run,
slide, nigga? (where you at?)
On 47th, that's what we reppin
Fuck the number after 11
Bitch, I been with Joey Purp and gang, gang since '07
I don't say
