Song Lyrics

I'm just a curbside prophet
with my hand in my pocket
and I'm waiting for my rocket to come
I'm just a curbside prophet
with my hand in my pocket
and I'm waiting for my rocket y`all

You see it started way back in NYC
When I stole my first rhyme from the M-I-C
At a west end avenue at 63
It`s the beginning of a leap year February '˜96
win a guitar picked it up in the mix
I committed to the licks a like a nickel bag of tricks
Well Look at me now
Look at me now
Look at me now, now, now, now

I'm just a curbside prophet
with my hand in my pocket
and I'm waiting for my rocket to come
I'm just a curbside prophet
with my hand in my pocket
and I'm waiting for my rocket y`all

Well then you're never gonna guess
where I been been been
And I have no regrets that I bet my whole checking account
Because it all amounts to nothing up in the end
Well you can only count that 'On The Road Again'
Will soon be on my radio dial
And I been paying close attention to the Willie Nelson style
Like a band of gypsies on the highway wild
I'm a one-man mission on the California skyline
Drive up the coast and I brag and I boast
because I'm picking up my pace, I`m makin` time like Space Ghost
Raising a toast to the highway patrol at the most
But my cruise control's on coast
Cause I'm tourin' around the nation on extended vacation
See I got Elsa the dog who exceeds my limitations
I say, 'I like your style crazy pound pup!
You need a ride? well come on girl hop in the truck"

With the curbside prophet
with my hand in my pocket
and I'm waiting for my rocket to come
I'm just a curbside prophet
with my hand in my pocket
and I'm waiting for my rocket y`all
i`m just a curbside prophet
with my hand in my pocket
and i`m waiting for my rocket to come on
i`m just a curbside prophet
with my hand in my pocket
and i`m waiting for my rocket y`all

See I'm a down-home brother red-neck undercover
With my guitar here I'm ready to play
And I'm a sucker for philly got a natural ability
geared to freestyle look at my flexibility
Dangerous on the MIC
My ghetto hat`s cocked right
All the ladies say,
'Yo, that kid is CRAZY!'
We got the backstage Betties takin' more than they can get
They say, 'whats up with M-R-A-Z?"

Hey hey hey! Somethin's different in my world today
Well they changed my traffic signs to a brighter yellow(repeat)

I`m just a Curbside Prophet love, (Repeat 5x)
And I`m waitin`for my rocket I said a waitin` for my rocket to come now *Fading out* curbside..come now brother.....
