Bruno Mars Liquor Store Blues

Tekst piosenki

[Intro – Damian Marley Talking]

[Verse 1 – Bruno Mars]
Standing at this liquor store
Whiskey coming through my pores
Feeling like I run this whole block
Lotto tickets and cheap beer
That’s why you can catch me here
Tryna scratch my way up to the top

[Pre-Hook]
Because my job got me going nowhere
So I ain’t got a thing to lose
Take me to a place where I don’t care
This is me and my liquor store blues

[Hook][x2]
I’ll take one shot for my pain
One drag for my sorrow
Get messed up today
I’ll be ok tomorrow

[Verse 2 – Bruno Mars]
Me and my guitar tonight
Singing to the city lights
Tryna leave with more than what I got
Cause 68 cent just ain’t gonna pay the rent
So I’ll be out here til they call the cops

[Pre-Hook]

[Hook][x2]

[Verse 3 – Damian Marley]
Here come Junior Gong
I’m flying high like superman
And thinking that I run the whole block
I dunno if it’s just because
Pineapple kush between my jaws
Has got me feeling like I’m on top
Feeling like I would stand up to de cops
And stand up to de bigga heads
Becaw de whole ah de ah saps
All de talk dem a talk
And dem fly make nah drop
Nuff ghetto youth cannot escape de trap

[Hook][x2]

[Outro – Damian Marley talking]
