Brother From Another Mother

VERSE I

Summer walking there I see the lady talking with the chicken bone
Beside her golden cart the Wolfman's napping on the ground
She said I got a magic recipe from the land that is my home
I'll sell it for your bucks and trust so I can feed my hound
I put it in my pocket and I kept on heading down the road
"Gimme all you got" a voice said from behind my back
A mugging by a movie star ain't how I dream of getting rolled
He said "I played a crooked cop and cannot stop the act"

PRE CHORUS I

What up, what up, what up holly
My brother from another mother I'm almighty
What up, what up, what up holly
I got my star on the walk it's alright

CHORUS I

I hear the stories while I'm walking
I've done my time won't see me running
Gone past the loaners now I'm lending
I'll leave my road all paved with gold and know that I'm just passing

VERSE II

I turn the corner and I head onto the cheap old Dollarama street
There sits a man without his legs to whom I'd lend a hand
To my surprise out of a suitcase there he grabs a brand new pair of feet
He puts them on with a crooked grin and runs off looking grand
The spoon girl and her reggae playing friend whose guitar has no strings
Are dropping Michael Jackson tunes as passers bust their moves
Halfway through their set a scout shows up decked out in Broadway bling
He says: "I'll make you stars besides you ain't got much to lose"

PRE CHORUS II

What up, what up, what up holly
My brother from another mother I'm almighty
What up, what up, what up holly
I got my star on the walk it's alright

CHORUS II

I hear the stories while I'm walking
I've done my time won't see me running
I've gone past the loaners now I'm lending
I'll leave my road all paved with gold and know that I'm just passing

BRIDGE

Walking the streets paved with gold
I'm on my way
Twisting along with the road
I'm on my way
