《The Bridge (Original 12 Version)》歌词

[00:00:22] You love to hear the story again and again

[00:00:37] Of how it all got started way back when

[00:00:45] The monument is right in your face

[00:00:50] Sit and listen for a while to the name of the place

[00:00:56] The Bridge

[00:00:58] Queensbridge

[00:00:59] Hip hop was set out in the dark

[00:01:02] They used to do it out in the park

[00:01:04] Every place they said his name it rang an alarm

[00:01:07] Otherwise known as Mean Teen Tom

[00:01:09] A brother who's known for his rap

[00:01:12] Jabby Jack Larry Lah third least not last

[00:01:17] A cool brother by the name of Gas

[00:01:20] Face Brothers made you get loose

[00:01:21] They was down with the brother called Cousin Bruce

[00:01:24] They used to jam in the center

[00:01:27] You had to pay so you could enter

[00:01:29] Go to the door get frisked

[00:01:31] Just in order to get in

[00:01:34] And if you wasn't from this town

[00:01:36] Then you couldn't fight and win

[00:01:39] But everytime they had a jam

[00:01:41] They couldn't get no peace

[00:01:44] So that's why the jams out there

[00:01:48] In the parks they had to cease

[00:01:59] Cause you was in

[00:02:04] The Bridge

[00:02:07] Queensbridge

[00:02:09] Dimples D the girl she was great

[00:02:14] Her and Marley Marl went and cut a plate

[00:02:21] They used to rock it out in the place

[00:02:52] And the title of it was 'Sucker DJ's'

[00:03:10] And then he strolled along one day

[00:03:18] And then he walked into a girl named Shante

[00:03:25] Third in line you know it's me

[00:03:28] MC Shan ha ha in the place to be

[00:03:31] MC Man he made them beg

[00:03:34] He is the man who is known as Craig

[00:03:36] The newest member out to get loose

[00:03:38] Now he is down with us and he got the Juice

[00:03:41] This is the place where stars are born

[00:03:44] And we are the only ones that can't be worn

[00:03:50] Out by any place any part of the world

[00:03:58] And while I'm out on tour keep your hand off my girl

[00:04:05] While she's in

[00:04:08] The Bridge

[00:04:11] Queensbridge

[00:04:11] Dead dreams bought and sold

[00:04:14] You gotta try and receive your goal

[00:04:16] However you do it however you may

[00:04:18] Don't ever listen to what nobody say

[00:04:21] Cause I will tell you the deal

[00:04:23] You gotta go by what your heart feel

[00:04:26] Cause if you don't you'll be misled

[00:04:28] By stupid little things put inside your head

[00:04:31] By someone else that you will see

[00:04:33] They're trying to lead your destiny

[00:04:36] Grab hold of your heavy chain

[00:04:39] Which people always pull and always trying to restrain

[00:04:46] You heard just what I said

[00:04:48] They're always pulling you back when you wanna get ahead

[00:04:51] They pull you back cause they're not with it

[00:04:53] You talk about school they talk about 'quit it'

[00:04:56] Soon you'll see that time does fly

[00:04:58] But you spent most of it out gettin high

[00:05:01] Thought about it much much later

[00:05:05] Could've went to school and been much greater

[00:05:12] But you chose to lead that fate

[00:05:16] Now you're sucking on a bone when it should've been steak

[00:05:22] The whole purpose of the story I told

[00:05:31] Was mainly to inspire you to reach your goal

[00:05:41] Stop walking through life as if you were blind

[00:05:52] You should reach for your goal cause I'm reaching for mine

[00:06:01] And I'm from

[00:06:06] The Bridge

[00:06:21] Queensbridge
