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.
