[Verse 1]
Hey, Eddie, can you lend me a few bucks?
Tonight can you get us a ride?
Gotta make it through the tunnel
Got a meetin' with a man on the other side
Eddie, this guy, he's the real thing
So if you're gonna come along
You gotta promise you won't say anything
'Cause this guy don't dance
And the word is out, this is our last chance
[Verse 2]
We gotta stay cool tonight, Eddie
'Cause, man, we got ourselves out on that line
And if we blow this one
They ain't gonna be looking for just me this time
And all we gotta do is hold up our end
Here, stuff this in your pocket
It'll look likе you're carrying a friend
And remеmber, just don't smile
And change your shirt
'Cause tonight we got style
[Verse 3]
Well, Cherry says she's gonna walk
'Cause she found out I took her radio and hocked it
But Eddie, man, she don't understand
That two grand's practically sittin' in my pocket
And tonight's gonna be everything that I said
And when I walk through that door
I'm just gonna throw that money on the bed
She'll see this time I wasn't just talkin'
Then I'm gonna go out walkin'
[Outro]
Hey Eddie, can you get us a ride?
