《I Left My Wallet in El Segundo》歌词

[00:00:00] I Left My Wallet in El Segundo - A Tribe Called Quest (探索一族)

[00:00:38] My mother went away for a month-long trip

[00:00:40] Her and some friends on an ocean-liner ship

[00:00:43] She made a big mistake by leaving me home

[00:00:45] I had to roam so I picked up the phone

[00:00:48] Dialed Ali up to see what was going down

[00:00:50] Told him I pick him up so we could drive around

[00:00:53] Took the Dodge Dart a '74

[00:00:55] My mother left a yard but I needed one more

[00:00:57] Shaheed had me covered with a hundred greenbacks

[00:00:59] So we left Brooklyn and we made big tracks

[00:01:02] Drove down the Belt got on the Conduit

[00:01:05] Came to a toll we paid and went through it

[00:01:07] Had no destination we was on a quest

[00:01:09] Ali laid in the back so he could get rest

[00:01:12] Drove down the road for two-days-and-a-half

[00:01:14] The sun had just risen on a dusty path

[00:01:17] Just then a figure had caught my eye

[00:01:19] A man with a sombrero who was four feet high

[00:01:22] I pulled over to ask were we was at

[00:01:24] His index finger he tipped up his hat

[00:01:26] El Segundo he said my name is Pedro

[00:01:29] If you need directions I'll tell you pronto

[00:01:31] Needed civilization some sort of reservation

[00:01:34] He said a mile south there's a fast food station

[00:01:36] Thanks senor as I start up the motor

[00:01:39] Ali said Damn Tip why you drive so far for

[00:01:43] (Well describe to me what the wallet looks like)

[00:01:46] Anyway a gas station we passed

[00:01:48] We got gas and went on to get grub

[00:01:52] It was a nice little pub in the middle of nowhere

[00:01:54] Anywhere would have been better

[00:01:56] I ordered enchiladas and I ate 'em

[00:01:59] Ali had the fruit punch

[00:02:01] When we finished we thought for ways to get back

[00:02:04] I had a hunch

[00:02:05] Ali said Pay for lunch

[00:02:07] So I did it

[00:02:08] Pulled out the wallet and I saw this wicked beautiful lady

[00:02:11] She was a waitress there

[00:02:13] Put the wallet down and stared and stared

[00:02:15] To put me back into reality here's Shaheed

[00:02:17] Yo Tip man you got what you need

[00:02:20] I checked for keys and started to step

[00:02:22] What do you know my wallet I forget

[00:02:24] Yo it was a brown wallet it had props numbers

[00:02:27] Had my jimmy hats I got to get it man

[00:02:30] Lord have mercy

[00:02:32] The heat got hotter Ali stars to curse me

[00:02:34] I fell bad but he makes me feel badder

[00:02:37] Chit-chit-chatter car stars to scatter

[00:02:39] Breaking on out we was Northeast bound

[00:02:42] Jettin' on down at the seepd of sound

[00:02:44] Three days coming and three more going

[00:02:46] We get back and there was no slack

[00:02:49] 490 Madison we're here Sha

[00:02:51] He said All right Tip see you tomorrow

[00:02:53] Thinking about the past week the last week

[00:02:56] Hands go in my pocket I can't speak

[00:02:59] Hopped in the car and torpe'ed to the shack

[00:03:01] Of Shaheed We gotta go back when he said

[00:03:04] Why I said We gotta go

[00:03:06] 'Cause I left my wallet in El Segundo

[00:03:13] Yeah I left my wallet in El Segundo

[00:03:23] Left my wallet in El Segundo
