Riding With Inmate Jerome Video (MV)

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 nizame 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 wit' you

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

Now ride low

And drive slow

And make her your own

You'll always be ridin' wif 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 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 Bruno Malli shoes

I even think I caught a whiff of Michael Jordan's Splash cologne

I sho nuff love riding with inmate Jerome
