The LOX - Yonkers Tale lyrics

rate me

*background singing, children playing*

This is the north part of Yonker

Their home

A whole world all to itself

You could get to any borough 30 minutes from here

It might as well be 3,000 miles away

Over there, that's Alexander Street Precinct

The sounds of the sirens fill the neighbornood

It was around 1997

L-O-X was the sound of the street

(*short clip of a song by the Lox*)

Felt like there was a Bad Boy in every corner back then

Was the time then

Mike Tyson was about to fight Holyfield

For the heavyweight title

Tyson was that nigga, word up

Pops used to sneak us into the gambling spot

To watch the fight on pay-per-view

That's Gettys Square

That's where everything went down at

I'll talk to y'all about that later

Over there

That's the hill

That's where we got rated at

Cops battling

A little red house

59, Chestnut Street, second floor

That's the lookout store

Ayo when shit was moving slow at the spot

All you would here is...
