Uncle Whitey, Whitey Can you us a bedtime story? Be right here, bed thing Yeah, can you tell some stories
Once a time not long ago When people wore and lived life slow When laws were and justice stood And people behavin' like they are too good
There was a little boy who was By another lil' boy and is what he said "Me and you, guy, we make some cash Robbin' old folks and the dash"
They did the job, money came with But one couldn't stop, it's like he had a He another and another, a sister and her brother Tryin' to rob a man who was a DT
The cop grabbed his arm, he started acting He said, "Keep still, boy, no for static" him in his belly and he gave him a slap But did he know that the boy was strapped
He out his gun and said, "Why'd you hit me?" The barrel headed straight for the kidney The cop get scared, the kid, he to figure "I'll do if I pull this trigger"
So he cold and ran around the block Cop radios in to another cop He ran by a tree, he saw this sister A shot for the head, he back but he missed her
Looked around and expectations So he he'd head for the subway stations But she was so he made a left He was runnin' top speed till he was breath
Knocked an old man down he swore he him Then his move to an abandoned building Ran up to the top floor He up the door there, guess who he saw?
Dave the dope shootin' dope Who know the meaning of water nor soap He said, "I bullets, hurry up, run" The dope fiend brought back a shotgun
He went outside but was cops all over Then he dipped into a car was a stolen Raced up the block 83, crashed into a tree near university Escaped alive though the car was and all the cops scattered
Ran out of bullets but he had static Grabbed a pregnant lady out the automatic He pointed at her and said "The gun was full of lead So the cops back off, or honey dead"
Deep in his he knew he was wrong So he let the go and he starts to move on Sirens sounded, he astounded Before the lil' boy got surrounded
He his gun, so went the glory And this is the way I end this story He was nineteen, in a madman's dream I saw the cops shoot the kid, I hear him scream
