"Riding With Inmate Jerome" 

Parody of David Ball's "Riding With Private Malone" 

Enjoy 

I was just out of the rehab rolling through the neighborhood 

When I came across this homeboy 

Said he'd fix me up real good 

He led me down an alley 

And right through a chain link fence 

I had a hundred dollars I could spend 

It was parked out in the driveway at a house of ill-repute 

And in the back seat hung a double breasted lime green suit 

What that homeboy showed me nearly caused a heart attack 

For what he called a hooptie was a sky blue Cadillac 

And I felt a little nervous as I drove out of the hood 

But I loved that furry steering wheel 

And that dashboard made of wood 

I opened up the mini bar and in there I found a note 

The stationery said County Jail and this is what he wrote 

He said my nizzame is inmate Leroy Jerome 

And if youse readin this judge says I isn't coming home 

Though I am incarcerated I'll make a deal with you 

If you can keep my gals in line this car belongs to you 

Now ride low 

And drive slow 

And make her yours own 

You'll always be riding with Inmate Jerome 

The grill on the radiator was gold and shiny bright 

And I'd tell you those old curb feelers were handy late at night 

I get the feeling sometimes if I turn real quick I'd see 

A gold-toothed cat daddy in the seat right next to me 

One night I was hoppin and when I heard the breaking glass 

And I can still remember the sounds of bullets whizzin' past 

Someone said they saw a man in a fur coat and fur hat 

Push me out of the motorcar and take his Caddy back 

It was a young man named inmate Leroy Jerome 

He's out of the joint the parole board sent him home 

Yes he was incarcerated...but he cut a deal or two 

Now he's got a brand new pinky ring and new Bruno Malli shoes 

Hey I think I caught a whiff of Michael Jordan's splash cologne 

I sho nuff of riding with inmate Jerome
