Solomon Jones - Aceyalone[00:00:00]
A bunch of wild boys was hanging around[00:00:11]
At the local neighborhood saloon[00:00:13]
And some cat kept dropping quarters down in the jukebox[00:00:17]
Playing all the favorite tunes[00:00:20]
And back by the bar playing cards looking hard[00:00:22]
Was big bad Solomon Jones[00:00:25]
And watching over his luck[00:00:28]
Was the love of his life[00:00:29]
Is the lady that was known as Simone[00:00:31]
When out of the night which was dark and cold[00:00:33]
Into the smoke-filled dimly-lit room[00:00:36]
Stumbled in a thug[00:00:39]
Who was smelling like bud[00:00:40]
And his eyes looked high as the moon[00:00:42]
He looked like a man with his foot in the grave[00:00:44]
And his lifetime about to be out[00:00:47]
Yet he slapped down some hundred-dollar bills on the bar[00:00:49]
And he yelled out "drinks on the house"[00:00:53]
Now nobody could place where this dude was from[00:00:56]
But we knew that he was far from home[00:00:58]
But we drank to his health[00:01:01]
And the last to drink was big bad Solomon Jones[00:01:02]
Now there are some G's[00:01:07]
Who just run the streets[00:01:08]
And they live life in and out of jail[00:01:09]
And such was he that kind of OG[00:01:12]
That looked like he'd been through hell[00:01:15]
With his hair in cornrows[00:01:18]
A mean mug grill[00:01:19]
Like a dog who's day is done[00:01:21]
He lit up the green stuff in his cigar[00:01:23]
And took hits one by one[00:01:26]
Now I got to thinking who this cat could be[00:01:29]
And what the hell is- going on[00:01:32]
Well I turned around and who was staring at him[00:01:35]
The lady that was known as Simone[00:01:37]
And the white t-shirt all stained with dirt[00:01:40]
He was trying not to be rude[00:01:43]
But he was trying to find another[00:01:46]
Good song on the jukebox[00:01:47]
So he could just set the mood[00:01:49]
Have you ever been out in the city streets[00:01:51]
With the gang-made players so clear[00:01:54]
Where the police and gangsters control the block[00:01:57]
And gunshots is all that you hear[00:02:00]
When the only sounds are the drums of war[00:02:02]
And you left out in the cold[00:02:05]
A half-dead man in a half-dead world[00:02:08]
And a yellow-brick road to go[00:02:11]
Then all of a sudden the music changed[00:02:14]
And everyone just held their post ˙ut it felt like a life had been robbed from you[00:02:16]
And everything that you held close[00:02:22]
Hat someone has stolen the women you love[00:02:25]
And that her love was a devil's lie hat your heart was gone[00:02:28]
And the best thing that you could do is crawl away and die[00:02:32]
It's the painful cry of a man's despair deep down in his bones[00:02:36]
Guess misery enjoys company said big bad Solomon Jones[00:02:42]
And the stranger turned[00:02:47]
And his eyes had burned[00:02:49]
In a most peculiar way[00:02:50]
And the white t-shirt that was stained in dirt[00:02:53]
He sat in to watch me sway[00:02:56]
Then his mouth had frowned up in this kind of grin[00:02:58]
And he spoke in a voice so clear[00:03:01]
"Boys you don't know who I am[00:03:04]
And I know that you just don't care"[00:03:07]
"Now I'ma say these words[00:03:10]
''cause these words are true[00:03:11]
And when I'm done here I'll be gone[00:03:12]
But one of you boys is a shiesty dog[00:03:15]
And his name is Solomon Jones"[00:03:18]
Then I ducked my head[00:03:21]
And the lights went out[00:03:22]
And two guns blazed in the dark[00:03:23]
Then I women swooned[00:03:26]
And the lights came on[00:03:28]
And the two men laced with the starch [00:03:29]
With a bullet in his head[00:03:32]
And pumped full of lead[00:03:33]
Was big bad Solomon Jones[00:03:35]
What a thug from the street[00:03:37]
Who was hoeing his heat[00:03:39]
And who knows to that lady named Simone[00:03:40]
