Beastie Boys - Paul Revere Video
Now here's a little story I gots to tell
About three bad brothers you know so well
It started way back in history
With Ad-Rock, MCA and me, Mike D.
I had a little horsey named Paul Revere
Just me and my horsey and a quart of beer
Ridin' cross the land, kickin' up sand
Sheriff's posse's on my tail 'Cause I'm in demand
One lonely Beastie I be
All by myself without nobody
The sun is beatin' down on my baseball hat
The air is gettin' hot, the beer is gettin' flat
Lookin' for a girl, I ran into a guy
His name is MCA, I said howdy, he said hi.
He told a little story that sounded well rehearsed
Four days on the run and that he's dying of thirst
The brew was in my hand, and he was on my tip
His voice was hoarse, his throat was dry, he asked me for a sip
He said Can I get some?
I said You can't get none.
I had a chance to run,
But he pulled out his shotgun.
Quick on the draw, I thought I'd be dead.
He put the gun to my head and this is what he said
Now, my name is MCA, I got a license to kill.
I think you know what time it is, it's time to get ill.
So what do we have here? An outlaw and his beer.
I run this land, you understand, I've made myself clear.
We stepped into the wind, he had a gun, I had a grin
As if this story's over, but it's ready to begin
I've got the gun, you've got the brew.
You've got two choices of what you can do.
It's not a tough descision as you can see.
I can blow you away or you can ride with me.
I said, I'll ride with you if you can get me to the border.
The Sheriff is after me for what I did to his daughter.
I did it like this, I did it like that.
I did it with the whiffle ball bat.
So I'm on the run, the cop's got my gun.
And right about now it's time to have some fun.
The King Ad-Rock, that is my name,
And I know the fly spot where they got the champagne.
We rode for six hours then we hit the spot
The beat was-a-bumpin' and the girlies was hot
This dude was starin' like he knows who we are
We took the empty spot next to him at the bar
MCA said Yo, you know this kid?
I said I didn't but I knew he did
The kid said, Get ready, cuz this ain't funny.
My name is Mike D and I'm about to get money.
He pulled out the jammy, aimed it at the sky.
He yelled, Stick 'em up! And let two fly.
Hands went up and people hit the floor.
He wasted two kids that ran for the door.
I'm Mike D and I get respect.
Your cash and your jewelry is what I expect.
MCA what with it, and he's my ace,
So I grabbed the piano player and punched him in the face
The piano player's out, the music stopped
This boy had beef, and he got dropped.
Mike D grabbed the money, MCA snatched the gold.
I grabbed two girlies and a beer that's cold.
