Yonkers Tale Lyrics

    *background singing, children playing*

    This is the north part of yonker
    Their home
    A whole world all to itself
    You could get to any borough 30 minutes from here
    It might as well be 3,000 miles away
    Over there, that's alexander street precinct
    The sounds of the sirens fill the neighbornood
    It was around 1997
    L-o-x was the sound of the street
    (*short clip of a song by the lox*)
    Felt like there was a bad boy in every corner back then
    Was the time then
    Mike tyson was about to fight holyfield
    For the heavyweight title
    Tyson was that nigga, word up
    Pops used to sneak us into the gambling spot
    To watch the fight on pay-per-view
    That's gettys square
    That's where everything went down at
    I'll talk to y'all about that later
    Over there
    That's the hill
    That's where we got rated at
    Cops battling
    A little red house
    59, chestnut street, second floor
    That's the lookout store
    Ayo when shit was moving slow at the spot
    All you would here is...
