Favorite Part Of Town

[Chorus]
I'm Uptown where the cops don't stop you
Black mustache like I sing in the opera
I hang around the longest nights
I'm even here in the darkest hour
I see the beasts in their natural manner
With a piece tucked in to a flannel
They called a hit on a boy named Samuel
We flipped booze like sandals
Where else would they get it?

[Verse 1]
In the heart of a blind tiger
Worked an old Englishmen by the name of Ryder
We told him to stop it
He was selling our product he was making a profit

[Verse 2]
Uh, I'm walking down the street and I see my fellas
I ask them where they going (goin')
They told me they were gonna pop that yellow belly
And give the whole city a warning
So I tagged along
I didn't think twice about it the time was one in the morning
We broke the door of that poor old tiger down
And the bullets they started storming

[Verse 3]
So we ran out the way we came in
Started down the block and one our our men tripped
I saw a couple goons with some guns running to us
They shot our man twice in the leg that he bruised
I stopped for a second but I had to keep running
It was three on three, six guns kept gunning
I was so damn nervous could've fell down and cried
I heard *gunshots* and both of my men died
Took a look up at the sign, East 48th
That was right by the water and really wanted to bathe
Footsteps got louder and a gunshot hit
I ran up to the railing and I hopped that bitch, see ya!

[Skit: *William*, **Leo**, Dick, (Mobsters)]
*Oh my gosh*
**Another one gets away**
It was Williams fault he's yellow!
*I didn't do nothing*
You did too I saw it with my own two ey-
**Shut up! Shut up.**

[Verse 4]
Today's news
Wound up on the dock in one piece not two (two)
And I know where I am, this my favorite part of town (town, town)

[Chorus]
I'm Uptown where the cops don't stop you
Black mustache like I sing in the opera
I hang around the longest nights
I'm even here in the darkest hour
I see the beasts in their natural manner
With a piece tucked in to a flannel
They called a hit on a boy named Samuel
We flipped booze like sandals
Where else would they get it?
