Cisco Kid Lyrics

Sublime

Thats chapter 1,
Would you like to have chapter 2
You better you son of a bitch, I know the way.
Heres adventure, heres romance,
Heres the famous robbin hood of the old west.
Cisco, the sheriff, hes getting closer!
This way poncho, vominos. the cisco kid.
Way, way, way, we way back in the days the year, 1980.
Had to get a job, had to make some money-ney
Picked up a pen and a pad,
Dropped reality never thinking that I would live to see the day Id rock my own cd
We used to do the dance we called obie-obie
Now s.t.p. 1993, so hollywood get out my way
My moms words seems like yesterday
Love jesus, dont forget to pray
She most have gone with the boss d.j. right?
(dont be too sure of that fat one. fat one? )
And feelin though, skinny coming with the 9mm
cuz he who has the money has the authority,
And respect to the man with the uzi
(Im pritty handy with a six gun myself)
The 808 kick is on my hitlist
And this beats cooking like an ital dish
It wasnt hard for me to do, it so easy
Because to me loops loops tight go naturally
Moms words seem like yesterday.
Whats your name? cisco kid.
Si, ponchos name is, poncho.
Now in 94 we got an s.t.p.
A half pack of smokes, and oh yes, and sammy
A fifteen pack of old millwalkee
A dalmation and a girlfriend,
But I aint got no money-ne-ne-ne
The 808 is within my reach,
Sublime beats are comin straight from long beach.
If you think that hollywood
Didnt get what he deserved,
Call 808 kit to get served
(scarface)
How am I gonna get a scar like that eating pussy, man?
Theres always some hombre that cant resist swapin lead,
Just to see if their faster with the six gun than cisco is.
Theyll only find out cisco is fastet.
Well that dont stop em from tryin poncho,
Like slade here,
He fancys himself as fast on the draw as a quarter-horse
Takin after a stray.
Whats the matter? cant the cisco kid talk for himself?
Is that how you got your reputation cisco,
By havin your partner build you up?
I make no claim to a reputation senor,
And no one has to talk for me.
The cisco kid, heh,.
The kid part fits you from the way you act.
Ive meet with your kind before.
You a foolish hombre if you think he will not fight you.
Your making big talk for an hombre who will not fight.
You are wrong slade,
Ill fight you any place, any time.
If there is a good reason.
Well heres a fist full of reasons!
Now you two quit that.
Just as soon as I finish off this cisco kid.
You are the one that is finished you faggot.
Is that a good punch?
Alright you two, thats enough,
Let him alone cisco.
I wont forget this cisco,
Ill take this up with you another time.
Any time hombre,
Id be glad to accomidate you.
Ill make it soon cisco.
Shit up cash, keep your mouth shut.
Thats what I mean, cisco,
You attract trouble like a fiddler attracts a square dance,
You understand why I dont want
You staying in this town?
Do not worry sheriff
