Rayland Baxter – Hey Larocco lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't wanna go outside
Tonight I wanna kill some time
Unlike every time I've done before
On a clear day you might see me
In a cage on a yellow brick road
Wishing I had someone to adore

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, the trouble I can find in Baltimore
Don't let me die behind this iron door

[Chorus]
Hey Larocco
Why'd you rat me out?
Now I'm in trouble
Don't you fail me now
I'm the only ace around
I know you wanna bring me down
Hey Larocco

[Verse 2]
I believe it was a Friday night
Charlie Avenue bowl fight
A lightning bolt light to Mike Larocco's head
He was angry at a friend of mine
I'm a saviour when I have the time
But Jesus freaks, they taught me everything

[Pre-Chorus]
But I swear to God, he died there in the street
Now this iron door is closing down on me

[Chorus]
Hey Larocco
Why'd you rat me out?
Now I'm in trouble
Don't you fail me now
I'm the only ace around
I know you wanna bring me down
Hey Larocco

[Bridge]
I bet you and your mama think
I got a big gold rock in the bank
But just because I dress like them
It don't mean I was made of millions
What about the little kid I was saving?
He was the one misbehaving
And now I lay on the floor
Behind the nine foot iron door

[Chorus]
Hey Larocco
Why'd you rat me out?
Now I'm in trouble
But please brother, don't you fail me now
Hey Larocco
Why'd you rat me out?
Now I'm in trouble
But don't you fail me now
I'm the only ace around
I know you wanna bring me down
Hey Larocco
Hey Larocco
Hey Larocco
Oh, hey Larocco
Oh, hey Larocco
