Way Out West歌词

歌手:Kurtis Blow 专辑:Kurtis Blow

[00:08]Way Out West from way back east
[00:10]Coming from a place you'd expect the least
[00:12]There came a stranger, dressed in black
[00:14]From a Harlem Town, a long way back
[00:16]Had a Stetson hat with a band of gold
[00:18]Eyes like steel, make your blood run cold
[00:20]Had a microphone hanging by his side
[00:22]Just ready to be amplified
[00:24]Rode into town on a big black steed
[00:26]Lookin' for a man named Ganamede
[00:28]"I hear the dude just won't get down
[00:30]If I rock this world I can rock this town!"
[00:32]And when they asked him for his name
[00:34]He said "Kurtis Blow, I play the rappin' game
[00:36]I can do the do, I can do the deed
[00:38]And tonight I'm gonna rock Ganamede!"
[00:40]Now Ganamede thought he was cool
[00:46]Wore Gucci shoes, had a fancy school
[00:48]A fancy job in a big corporation
[00:50]Fancy girls all across the nation
[00:52]Fancy car, fancy clothes,
[00:54]Fancy friends and fancy dough
[00:57]Only one thing he wouldn't do
[00:58]Is let himself get down with you
[01:01]The stranger went to the old saloon
[01:02]Grabbed his mike and spun a tune
[01:04]And everyone in the whole darn place
[01:06]Said "Do the rap and set that pace!"
[01:09]He rapped 'em down and he rapped 'em out
[01:10]He made 'em dance and he made 'em shout
[01:12]He said "If you like Kurtis Blow
[01:14]Then let me hear you all say...
[01:16]A say ho-oo! Ho-oo!
[01:18]Hi-yo! Hi-yo!
[01:21]Say Kurtis! Kurtis!
[01:22]Say Kurtis Blow! Kurtis Blow!
[01:24]At midnight Ganamede came in
[01:26]To watch the dancers move and spin
[01:28]He took a seat over by the bar
[01:30]And started smokin' a big cigar
[01:32]"I admit the stranger is not bad
[01:34]But tonight I'm gonna make him sad
[01:36]'Cause I don't care about the groove
[01:38]There ain't no dude gonna make me move!"
[01:40]The joint was jumpin' hard at one
[01:42]But Ganamede was havin' none
[01:46]Things were really fly at two
[01:47]The stranger rapped and the tension grew
[01:48]But Ganamede maintained his cool
[01:50]"I'll make the stranger play the fool
[01:52]'Cause I don't care about the groove
[01:54]There ain't no dude gonna make me move!"
[01:57]The showdown came at three o'clock
[02:02]The stranger said, "I'm gonna make you rock
[02:05]I'm gonna make you move, I'm gonna make you dance,
[02:06]They're gonna take you out in an ambulance
[02:09]Now everybody lend a hand
[02:11]I'm gonna make you be the band
[02:13]There ain't no jive, no superstition
[02:15]We're gonna have a little demolition
[02:17]Get down!
[02:21]Now stomp your feet
[02:23]To the funky beat
[02:25]Just clap your hands
[02:27]And let the beat expand
[02:29]Let me here the bass
[02:31]Put it in my face
[02:33]Let the guitar play
[02:35]Just put it away
[02:37]And now I think we've got the groove
[02:39]So Ganamede, get up and move!"
[02:42]Now everyone looked at the bar
[02:47]At the lonely man with the big cigar
[02:49]He began to move, he began to shake
[02:51]He'd had as much as he could take
[02:53]He took his body to the floor
[02:55]And then the crowd began to roar
[02:57]The stranger just had done the deed
[02:59]And rocked the house with Ganamede.
[03:01]From three to four he couldn't stop
[03:03]From four to five he just had to rock
[03:05]From five to six he let it loose
[03:07]At seven he still had the juice
[03:09]At eight o'clock he was goin' strong
[03:11]Gettin' down with every song
[03:13]At nine o'clock he couldn't dance
[03:15]And someone called an ambulance
[03:17]As they put him in the back
[03:27]Of that big white shiny Cadillac
[03:29]He said "Please get me Kurtis Blow
[03:31]There's something that he ought to know"
[03:33]He said "I thought I'd make my name
[03:35]By beatin' you at the rappin' game
[03:37]But you beat me fair and square
[03:39]And anyway, I just don't care."
[03:41]The stranger asked him what he meant
[03:43]Said Ganamede, "I am content
[03:45]I never used to catch a groove
[03:47]I never used to dance or move
[03:50]But it's more fun to play the fool
[03:51]Than tryin' hard to be real cool
[03:53]So anytime you're back in town
[03:55]I'm gonna get up and I'm gonna get down!"
[04:01]The stranger watched him drive away
[04:03]Knowing what he'd done that day
[04:05]And then he went right back inside
[04:07]To make the dancers slip and slide
[04:09]To rock 'em out, to rock 'em in,
[04:11]To make 'em rock it down again
[04:13]And he said "If you like my sound
[04:15]Let me hear you all say...
[04:18]Throw down! Throw down!
[04:19]At the showdown! At the showdown!
[04:21]Throw down! Throw down!
[04:23]At the showdown! At the showdown!
[04:25]Now stomp your feet
[04:27]To the funky beat
[04:29]Just clap your hands
[04:31]And let the beat expand
[04:33]Let me here the bass
[04:35]Put it in my face
[04:37]Let the guitar play
[04:39]Just put it away
[04:41]A-rock on!
