Slick Rick – Just Another Case lyrics

[Featuring Slick Rick]

Uhh Once upon a time let's see if I remember

Back in January

Nah chill.....it was December

True...cuz that's when L started his bid

Partied through the New Year

January third he slid

Up until then yo L had it swell

Called him Sweet Pea like his name was Pernell

He did the job money came with ease

Blowing outta town moving bricks and ki's

Him and his chick in forty G rides

Holding down fort like they Bonnie N Clyde

Luxury cars of all makes and models

New outfits everyday, downin' champagne by the bottle

Glass in the air (air)

Toast to my team (team)

Toast to my cream and the scotties that beam

While others fiend, I'm abouts da beamer

Think about your girl, just say what (Say what!), I'm a dreamer

Called up CRU

Yo, they probably in the studio

Phil Collins in the background

(Su-Su-Sudio)

Chorus: repeat 3X

Now this ain't funny, so don't you dare laugh

Just another case about the wrong path

(Where's my chick?) Sent her on a mission

Hope she ain't slip...on that pickup

Yo, who dis on my flip

What! My cash and he fucked her wit dat A

Me and Mitch rollin' over there quick fast

Rolled up on the spot, (It's that kid Uzi Ed)

He took me for my paper so just call him Uzi Dead!

Used to run epps wit him back in the day

Mitch popped the trunk

Passed the German AK

You dirty rat! I'm bout to bless that ass

Better take cover from the rat-tat-tat-tat

Uzi Ed, ain't have a vest, three to the chest, Ed got blessed

L got life, Ed got death

Honey took the money and she slid to the left

Back in the day I told L she was shady

Now she in Cali about to have Ed's baby

Chorus: repeat 5X

Now this ain't funny, so don't you dare laugh

Just another case about the wrong path

(Slick Rick)

Yo, what's the word, kid?!

Tell you bout a brother named Sid

Got work release after doing a 3-to-life bid

cause of drug logic

Shouldn't touch it

Now out to budget

With a movie star chick from outta Edenwald Projects

Nice job, took prison camp drives

While he promised up and down to live a civilized lifestyle

The seat off the brow was soon on garment

Both worked

Got themselves a two-bedroom apartment

Great statement, without delayment, away and went

Saved to get a house on one of them low down payments

But an idea concocted his stock

Why don't we try and turn this money over on the drug tip

So he gave his man a shriek and excitement

Didn't know his peeps were under secret indictment

Sick of the path that'll get you hung by the neck

Sent him back up north to do a super long stretch again

Black folk, you know the half, don't laugh, it's...

Just another case about the wrong path

Chorus: repeat 4X

Well, this ain't funny, so don't you dare laugh

It's just another case about the wrong path
