Verse
Fm
Uncle Whitey, Uncle Whitey, can you tell us a bedtime story?
Fm
Yeah, we want some bedtimes stories (Please!)
Fm
Once upon a time not long ago when people wore pajamas and lived life slow
Fm
When laws were stern and justice stood and people were behavin' like they our too good
Fm
There was a little boy who was misled by another lil' boy and this is what he said
Fm
"Me and you, Guy, we gonna make sum cash Robbin' old folks and makin' the dash"
Fm
They did the job, money came with ease but one couldn't stop, it's like he had a disease
Fm
He robbed another and another and a sister and her brother tried to rob a man who was a DT. undercover
Fm
The cop grabbed his arm, he started acting erratic he said keep still, boy, no need for static
Verse 2
Fm
Punched him in his belly and he gave him a slap but little did he know the lil' boy was strapped
Fm
The kid pulled out a gun he said why'd you hit me the barrel headed straight for the cop kidney
Fm
The cop got scared, the kid, he starts to figure I'll do years if I pull this trigger
Fm
So he cold dashed, ran around the block cop radios in to another lady cop
Fm
He ran by a tree, there he saw this sister a shot for the head he shot back but he missed her
Fm
Looked around good and from expectations he decided he'd head for the subway stations
Fm
But she was coming so he made a left he was runnin' top speed till he was outta breath
Fm
Knocked an old man down and swore he killed him then he made his move to an abandoned building
Fm
Ran up the stairs up to the top floor opened up the door there, guess who he saw
Fm
Dave the dope fiend shootin' dope who don't know the meaning of water nor soap
Verse 3
Fm
He said I need bullets, hurry up, run the dope fiend brought back a spanking shotgun
Fm
He went outside but there was cops all over then he dipped into a car, was a stolen Nova
Fm
Raced up the block doing 83 crashed into a tree near university,
Fm
Escaped alive though the car was battered Rat-a-tat-tatted and all the cops scattered
Fm
Ran out of bullets but still had static grabbed a pregnant lady and out the automatic
Fm
Pointed at her head and he said the gun was full of lead
Fm
He told the cops, "back off or honey here's dead",
Verse 4
Fm
Deep in his heart he knew he was wrong so he let the lady go and he starts to move on,
Fm
Sirens sounded, he seemed astounded before long the lil' boy got surrounded,
Fm
He dropped the gun, so went the glory and this is the way I gotta end this story,
Fm
He was only nineteen, in a madman's dream I saw the cops shoot the kid, I still hear him scream,
Fm
This ain't funny so don't you dare laugh just another case 'bout the wrong path,
Fm
Straight and narrow or your soul gets cashed G'night
