Lyrics Superfly

The darkest of nights with the moon shining bright

There's a set goin' strong lotta things goin' on

The man of the hour has an air of great power

The dudes have hindered him for so long

Oh superfly you're gonna make your fortune by and by

But if you lose don't ask no questions why

The only game you know is do or die, ah, ah, ah

Hard to understand but a helluva man

This cat from the slums had a mind wasn't dumb

But a weakness was shown 'cos his hustle was blown

His mind was his own but the man lived alone

Ooh superfly you're gonna make your fortune by and by

But if you lose don't ask no questions why

The only game you know is do or die, ah, ah, ah

The game he plays he plays for keeps

Hustlin' times in ghetto streets tryin' to get over

That's what we tryin' to do y'all

Takin' all that he can take gamblin' with the odds of fate

Tryin' to get over

Ooh superfly huh huh huh

The aim of his role was to move a lotta blow

Ask him his dream what does it mean

He wouldn't know

Can't be like the rest is the most he'll confess

But the times runnin' out and there's no happiness

Ooh superfly you're gonna make your fortune by and by

But if you lose don't ask no questions why

The only game you know is do or die

Ah, ah, ah superfly

Superfly hey hey

Oh superfly mmm, superfly

Tryin' to get over
