Anthony Mendez - Romeo Check Lyrics
Horse gallops down the back pike, in the broad of dayRomeo commands that stallion to change rein, down BroadwayWoman fixed to a window ledge, prays softly for her hero to arriveWhile the infected junkies pray for well and beg quarters to surviveShe retired from her ledge of disappointmentBattered Mother hits the casino town and gets her fillDriven from the hunger, never for the thrillJust collecting them checks to pay some bills, anotherRomeo check, we'll do just fineRomeo check, buy us a little timeTonight vacant hearts echoed a beatRomeo check, cash it in or hit the streetNow, I've never learned something from a car that wouldn't startJust how to ride the bus and how to read the bus chartsAnd I've never learned nothing from watching you on the blockJust how the pimps treat the girls like cattle, keeping close stockBut tonight call me Romeo, cause I'm coming for youI never claimed to be a heroJust a man doing something that's over due, I'm coming for youRomeo check, we'll do just fineRomeo check, buy us a little timeTonight vacant hearts echoed a beatRomeo check, cash it in or hit the streetAtlantic City dreams never came trueDarkness gets so black here, you can see the bluesRound here folks don't believe anymoreCasinos never know the timeOn the boards it's always a junkies time to scoreRomeo raises his sword and stabs his loverBelieving some hearts still feelDrives his blade through the pain, in a last attempt Cupid's dealRomeo check, we'll do just fineRomeo check, buy us a little timeTonight vacant hearts echoed a beatRomeo check, cash it in or hit the street
