Superfly

In the style of

Curtis Mayfield

Lyrics

darkness of night
with the moon
shinin' bright
there's a set
going strong
a lot of things
goin' on

the man of the hour
has an air
of great power
the dudes
have envied him
for so long

oh superfly
you gonna make
your fortune
by and by

but if you lose
don't ask no
questions why
the only game
you know is
do or die
ah ha ha

hard to understand
but a hell of a man
this cat of the slum
had a mind
wasn't dumb

but a weakness
was shown
'cause his hustle
was wrong
his mind was his own
but the man
lived alone

ooh superfly
you gonna make
your fortune
by and by

but if you lose
don't ask no
questions why
the only game
you know is
do or die
ah ha ha

the game he plays
he plays for keeps
hustlin' times
in ghetto streets
tryin' to get over
that's what he
tryin' to do y'all

takin' all that
he can take
gamblin' with
the odds of fate

tryin' to get over
tryin' to get over
tryin' to get over
tryin' to get over
ooh superfly
huh huh

the aim of his rope
was to move
a lot of blow
ask him his dream
what does it mean
he wouldn't know

can't be like the rest
is the most
he'll confess
but the time's
running out
and there's
no happiness

ooh superfly
you gonna make
your fortune
by and by

but if you lose
don't ask no
questions why
the only game
you know is
do or die
ah ha ha

superfly
superfly
huh oh superfly
superfly
