Lyrics

[Horses galloping. horses neighing.]
Krayzie "big bad ass" bone:
You better count your money
With felicia:
Ghetto cowboy

Krayzie "big bad ass" bone:
The name is krayzie "big bad ass" bone, wanted up north for all the
Gold that I stole, along with some cash, even took the
Mayor's daughter. now, that there's kidnappin', but she was with it
So I brought her. then, got myself into a whole heap of
Trouble, double-crossed by the law, so there's nobody to run to: yeah
It's just me and my sawed-off shotgun. outlaw--call him
Leather face. I'm headed for the west, heard they got a couple banks
In town that ain't been held up yet. well, uh, I oughta
Make it by sundown. I figure that's enough time for me to get the
Whole rundown. so, I continue my mission. it's gettin' dark
So I'm watchin' for them damn injuns--they like to catch ya, then they
Rob and split. I be a rootin'-tootin'-shootin' damn fool
Protectin' my chips. all of a sudden, I heard somebody rumble in the
Bushes. stop my horse. [horse neigh.] "whoa
Nellie! who in the bushes? you better speak out or I'm a let my
Shotgun song sing out."

Thug queen, "the horse stealer":
Who is this? I hope this ain't the law. jump out the bushes with my
Sawed-off shotgun

Krayzie "big bad ass" bone:
"C'mon out, right now. I'm gettin' angry." took a step back, 'cause it
Could get dangerous

Thug queen, "the horse stealer":
"Please don't shoot. it's just me, thug queen, the horse-stealer."

Krayzie "big bad ass" bone:
"Then, why the hell is you hidin' in them bushes?"

Thug queen, "the horse stealer":
"I'm wanted in four counties for armed robbery, killed to two
Sheriffs, six of his best men want my
Head, stole two horses
Thought you was the law, that's why I jumped in the bushes."

Krayzie "big bad ass" bone:
"Goodness." now, she was hotter than the barrel on fire, but I could
Use her for the job, so I told her to ride. "c'mon."

Thug queen, "the horse stealer":
"May I ask you what you headed to the west for?"

Krayzie "big bad ass" bone:
"I got a partner, got a plan for some dough, and if you're down, you
Can pick up yourself a pretty penny. 'be in town in a
Minute, now be sure if you're with it."

Thug queen, "the horse stealer":
"We out before the sun rise, gotta stallion for your partner to ride."
Hit the saloon for the moonshine. down for whatever, let's
Ride, let's ride

Krayzie "big bad ass" bone:
"These directions say we go to tucson, arizona. when we arrive, we'll
Cop a place we can bunk, and meet my boy in the
Mornin' for details and hook-up."

Krayzie "big bad ass" bone:
You better count your money
Felicia:
Ghetto cowboy
[Rooster crowing.]

Krayzie "big bad ass" bone:
"Rise and shine! good mornin'. howdy. nine o'clock we meet my boy in
The saloon in the valley. now, I done came a long
Way, and I don't wanna be late."

Thug queen, "the horse stealer":
"Tell him I'll make it to him 'cause you know we aint"

Krayzie "big bad ass" bone:
"Move out! giddyup, giddyup, giddyup." [whip cracks, horses neigh.]

Krayzie "big bad ass" bone:
You better count your money
Felicia:
Ghetto cowboy

Layzie "the kid":
I'm peepin' krayzie's wanted poster in the saloon, so I assume it'll
Be trouble around here pretty soon. glance across the
Room: I see this youngster getting ready to fight, but if he mess up
The night, I think that krayzie just might take his life. so, i
Approach him, and I pause. "look, man, I really don't wanna brawl, but
Won't you chill before them laws come messin' up this
Masterplan?" since he already rowdy, I just asked the man: "hey, you
Want some work? well, partner, put in your bid, and
By the way, now what's your name? they call me layzie the kid."

Powder p:
"The name's powder p, can I get a twelve gauge? outlaw--everyday on
The front page. mister kid, if you give me the
Lowdown, me and black jack be ready for the showdown with two
Double-barrels pointed at whatever. we'll stick together
I'm purty clever."

Layzie "the kid":
"So saddle up, jump on the bandwagon, because it's all goin' down." i
Heard a guy run in the bar screamin', "krayzie's in
Town!"

Krayzie "big bad ass" bone:
"Now when we get to the saloon, you don't worry. wait outside, and
Don't be stealin' nobody's damn horses!" step inside the
Bar. "lay the kid, you son of a gun!"

Layzie "the kid":
"Hey, man, I'm glad you made it safely. now let's go have some fun
And this my partner powder, he's a young gun."

Powder p:
"Howdy."

Krayzie "big bad ass" bone:
"Mighty glad to meet ya, son. oh yeah, you know I also brought a
Friend along. meet thug queen, the horse peddler
Straggler, just met her."

Thug queen, "the horse stealer":
"Howdy, partner, already got the horses saddled up."

Layzie "the kid":
"I hope you good at robbin' banks like you rustle that cattle up."

Powder p:
"Now, y'all, it's gon' be gettin' dark real soon."

Krayzie "big bad ass" bone:
"I think you're right, I say we move. c'mon, let's move out!

Giddyup, giddyup, giddyup. move out!" [whip cracks, horses neigh.]
Krayzie "big bad ass" bone:
You better count your money
Felicia:
Ghetto cowboy
