The Avenue Lyrics by Kool Moe Dee

The Avenue Lyrics

    Bought a brand new car
    Driving down the boulevard
    Turn the corner
    Like i wanna be chilin' hard
    The screen is set
    For me to get wet
    Cause it wouldn't be right
    If the ladies didn't sweat
    Pull the seat back
    To make contact
    Eye to eye
    You know i ain't living like that
    I wear shades
    I get paid
    And when it comes to girls
    And cops i can't get played
    Fly girls that
    Used to ignore me
    I pull up
    And let the car speak for me
    (beep beep)
    Enough said
    Better hop in while the light's still red
    Homeboys scatter
    What's the matter
    ("here come the cops")
    Oh yeah that again
    Rather than
    Beating them down
    I just talk to the men
    They don't understand how i've got so much cash
    Then i get mad and tell them to ask
    Their daughter
    I bet she bought a
    Kool moe dee tape
    For her recorder
    We're not always
    Thieves and thugs
    And what law says
    We gotta sell drugs
    I get paid
    And i'm making a killin'
    But when i come home
    I just like chillin'
    On the
    Avenue, a-avenue (4x)
    Action
    That's where the stars go
    On the weekend
    It's like a car show
    Ladies flock to jock
    Cars go by them
    If i'm walking and talking
    They ask what ya driving
    When i peep that
    Same old weak rap
    Ask her her language
    Tell her i don't speak that
    Pull out a "g"
    A car key and a visa
    Walk her to the car
    Leave her there "see ya"
    She didn't want
    Nothin' else but a payday
    Now she's sinking
    Hollering mayday
    I knew her card
    Cause two days ago
    I saw that same slick girl
    In a broken-down yugo
    With a hustler
    Layin' low
    Couldn't drive his benz
    Cause the cops said so
    Your homeboy got shot
    In front of your crack spot
    You move cause it got to hot
    But not on that block
    The cops are watching
    Baiting and plotting
    Setting you up
    For the raid in the block and
    When they come
    You all got to go
    But not kool moe
    Cause they all know
    The knot i got
    Is way over their knot
    But i'm working
    That's why they're not
    After me
    They're after you
    Cause i'm just chillin'
    On the
    Avenue, a-avenue (4x)
    Homeboys wanna get paid
    We can do this
    The right way
    You'll get money and respect
    Livin' large and correct
    Then come back through the neighborhood
    When you look good
    We all look good
    Cause it's all for one
    And one for all
    It's got to be a better way
    To get the money y'all
