Lyrics
Cool Runnin'
[Verse 1]
Boss man promises a worker's dream,
Just a pawn, in a dark regime.
His Paradise? my nightmare stay,
Pushing this raft through the midnight spray,
If I'm seen by ICE Yeah, it might get hot,
Three meals, a roof, and a metal cot
Better than anything I've already got!
[Chorus]
I be Cool, Cool runnin',
About to break free,
I be smooth, Smooth hummin',
To the rhythm of the restless sea,
Runnin' smooth,
Yeah, we're cool runnin',
All the way to the Florida Keys!
[Verse 2]
Salt in my eyes and the engine's humming,
Don't look back 'cause the storm is coming,
Band of pirates aiming to steal,
Soul to sell or some coke to deal,
Got a Cuban cousin in Biscayne Bay,
Keeping a light on to show me the way.
[Chorus]
I be Cool, Cool runnin',
About to break free,
I be smooth, Smooth hummin',
To the rhythm of the restless sea,
Runnin' smooth,
Yeah, we're cool runnin',
All the way to the Florida Keys!
[Bridge]
The Father made the land and the sea,
But the rulers of both ain't up to me,
I'm just a man who's looking for more,
Gotta reach that freedom shore!
[Chorus]
I be Cool, Cool runnin',
About to break free,
I be smooth, Smooth hummin',
To the rhythm of the restless sea,
Runnin' smooth,
Yeah, we're cool runnin',
All the way to the Florida Keys!
[Outro]
Oh, yeah, I be Cool, Cool runnin',
Hummin', Cool, Cool Runnin'
Oh, I be Cool, Cool Runnin'
