Zip Gun Bop - Amazing Royal Crown Revue

Zip Gun Bop

Amazing Royal Crown Revue

(Mando Dorame - Eddie Nichols, WARNER BROS. 1998)

Well, there's this dance, you ought to know
'Cause it's a little somethin' I made up Jack
To keep your heads low
See there are lots of sore gangsters
Packin' iron all day
So you learn my two steps, stay out the way
Out the way...

Hey-hey, zip gun, zip gun bop
Better learn to do it before your poor heart stops now
Zip gun, zip gun bop

Well, there was Flatfoot Louie
Sittin' on his front stoop
He got five rounds in the belly
Looked like a bowl of minestrone soup
Now you take that guy Mugzy
He got iced the other day
He could've saved mom the dry cleaners bill my way

Hey-hey, zip gun, zip gun bop
Better learn to do it before your poor heart stops now
Zip gun, zip gun bop

Alright Mushface...
If a cool case of lead poisoning you do not wish to contract
Better learn to do the bop quick baby
Or start pushing some daisies, huh

So, now you can see
Zip gun bop was meant to be
'Cause there's lots of lead flyin'
Couple of lonely gals cryin'
But you can hear them cats shootin' baby
Shootin' rat-ta-tat-tat
So, you learn my two step Jack or that's that

Hey-hey, zip gun, zip gun bop
Better learn to do it before your poor heart stops now
Zip gun, zip gun bop

Hey-hey, zip gun, zip gun bop
Better learn to do it before your poor heart stops now
Zip gun, zip gun bop
