Good To Be The King

King Jesse in the house Raise your glasses Get your wallets out your pockets All hail King Jack Daniels and Jimmy Bean These are a few of my favorite things It's good to be the king It's so good to be the king Pockets fat, women thin Hot stakes and I'm bound to win It's good Oh it's so good to be the king Allow me by way of introduction To say a little something bout these streets I grew up in Hustlin, trying to scrape a dollar out of nothing Take a little faith and make it substance You see where I come from you can live forever on your knees Begging alms, paying homages another man decrees Or, well you can give the people what they need Just enough to let em make believe they're free So I wear a heart on my sleeve, keep a spade in my cuff Let him without a shadow call my bluff I was born an urchin told I wasn't worth the weight of my dirt Now a king, crab-sidestepped the curse of my birth Tell em, Jesse in the house, throw your dice on the table Watch a leopard change its spots, lies become fables Whatever it takes for these ladies in lace To come walkin my way and they do, yeah they do so White powder and stacks of green These are a few of my favorite things It's good to be the king Oh it's so good to be the king Hot dice, loaded decks Texin? the checks of my loyal subjects It's good, yes it's good Oh it's so good to be the king BIG JOE Word had spread far and wide about King Jesse's success And every young turk who'd ever felt the draw of a dark room on a hot summer night Tried his hand at toppling the King STACK King Jesse, you rollin' tonight? KING JESSE Well who's asking, young man? STACk Well I guess you probably heard of me Hi I'm Stack o Lee, no lyin' Same roustabout that took out Billy Lines Just for tryin to pull an ace I wasted him My aim was nice, but you should see what I do with my dice I heard that you're the king fish, I brought my hook and bait along Roll the bones, great, place your bets on the heart eight Here comes the heartache, Jesse, I come for crown and scepter I come for kin and kingdom so you and your big protector Better recognize I'm better than the average guys who darken up your door Six foot two and I pack a forty four No funny stuff, get me, we'll do this on the level Joe Didn't come to start rumors I only came to settle em If you're half as decent as your rep that so precedes you You may put up a fight but it is I who will unseat you Night night king, I demote you to a naive I'm the best that ever rolled em and these skeletons are my slaves How high? High as you like Well let's go Big Joe! Chorus Big Joe pulled a big number what number did Joe pull? Big Joe pulled a big number what number did Joe pull? Easy cash stacks from cocky beans? These are a few of my favorite things It's good to be the king Oh it's so good to be the king My crowd shoutin as they tend to do And watching the look on your face when you lose It's good Oh it's so good to be the king I'm Stack o, you're stacks look low you need a loan? A little boost to your cash flow? I'm happy to oblige Or maybe you need a back rub, you know how to scrap with lion cubs But now you're rolling higher, the king of the pride Down Simba, I call this one the rope-a-dope The hustler ? The Caesar in the senate on the eyes? And I'm surprised you pitted my position Cus the word around your kingdom is You love coming from behind Ooooohh Yeah, I said it KING JESSE Fine I'm a little Roman in my sentiments But you? You're a peon in the presence of his imminence your impotence And I forgive this incident your impudence Your judgement blurred Correct it, kiss the ring and have the last word STACK I might be down but I still swing a bigger better when there's pressure fadfjadlf? kind of precious treasure Last two rolls were pocket change, I'm hungry for some real cake What do you say your honor One more, for some real stakes?
