Romeo Check Lyrics - Singles - Anthony Mendez

Horse gallops down the back pike, in the broad of day 

Romeo commands that stallion to change rein, down Broadway 

Woman fixed to a window ledge, prays softly for her hero to arrive 

While the infected junkiespray for well and beg quarters to survive 

She retired from her ledge of disappointment 

Battered Mother hits the casino town and gets her fill 

Driven from the hunger, never for the thrill 

Just collecting them checks to pay some bills, another 

Romeo check, we'll do just fine 

Romeo check, buy us a little time 

Tonight vacant hearts echoed a beat 

Romeo check, cash it in or hit the street 

Now, I've never learned something from a car that wouldn't start 

Just how to ride the bus and how to read the bus charts 

And I've never learned nothing from watching you on the block 

Just how the pimps treat the girls like cattle, keeping close stock 

But tonight call me Romeo, cause I'm coming for you 

I never claimed to be a hero 

Just a man doing something that's over due, I'm coming for you 

Romeo check, we'll do just fine 

Romeo check, buy us a little time 

Tonight vacant hearts echoed a beat 

Romeo check, cash it in or hit the street 

Atlantic City dreams never came true 

Darkness gets so black here, you can see the blues 

Round here folks don't believe anymore 

Casinos never know the time 

On the boards it's always a junkies time to score 

Romeo raises his sword and stabs his lover 

Believing some hearts still feel 

Drives his blade through the pain, in a last attempt Cupid'sdeal 

Romeo check, we'll do just fine 

Romeo check, buy us a little time 

Tonight vacant hearts echoed a beat 

Romeo check, cash it in or hit the street
