Superfly Lyrics

Superfly lyrics

Darkest of night 

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 envied him for so long 



(Chorus) 

Oooh, 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-ha-ha 



Hard to understand 

What
a hell of a man 

This cat of the slum 

Had a mind, wasn't dumb 

But a weakness was shown 

'Cause his hustle was wrong 

His mind
was his own 

But the man lived alone 



Chorus 



The game he plays he plays for keeps 

Hustlin' times and ghetto
streets 

Tryin' ta get over 

(That's what he tryin' to do, y'all)


Taking all that he can take 

Gambling with the odds of fate 

Tryin' ta get over (4x) 

Woo, Superfly 



The aim of his
role 

Was to move a lot of blow 

Ask him his dream 

What does
it mean? 

He woudn't know 

"Can't be like the rest" 

Is the
most he'll confess 

But the time's running out 

And there's no
happiness 



Chorus 

Superfly (4x) 



"Tryin' ta
get over..." (9x)
