I'm gonna tell you a story about the Hookers
John and Earl Hooker
They went down on 47th Street one night
You know 47th, it's a gas
They went into a club, sat down after a bar that night
Some cat started a riot with Earl
That was his first mistake
John said, "Earl, be cool, baby
I got the cat"
And if you miss him, I got him
He learned one thing that night, one thing you do not do
He learned one thing that night, one thing you do not do
You don't mess with the Hookers
God knows they'll burn you down
Don't mess with the Hookers
Yeah, yeah, they'll burn you down
I learned some things in life
Some things you do not do
I learned some things in life
Some things you do not do
You don't spit in the wind
You don't pull on Superman's cape
You don't pull the mask off that old Lone Ranger
And you don't mess with the Hookers
Hmm, they will burn you down
Hmm, don't mess with the Hookers
Hmm, mmm, hmm, mmm
Hmm, mmm, hmm, mmm
Hmm, mmm, hmm, mmm
