Bankhead

Lyrics

[Intro — instrumental only, no vocals]
[a cash register ka-chings and the drawer rings open; the beat builds]
[Instrumental build — still no singing, let the groove settle in]
[Instrumental — the register and the strings carry it alone]

[Verse 1 — vocals enter at last]
Westside corner with the industrial bones,
Bankhead bouncing to the hip-hop tones;
ring the register, hear the ka-ching ring,
Bankhead cashing in on everything.

[Chorus]
Bankhead, Bankhead, ring and ching,
the register drawer is a cha-ching thing;
ka-ching, ka-ching, let the drawer slam shut,
the westside hustle in the railroad rut.

[Verse 2]
The Bankhead Bounce and the dance floor sway,
the industrial yards at the end of the day;
every ka-ching a beat on the westside line,
Bankhead banking on the bounce divine.

[Chorus]
Bankhead, Bankhead, ring and ching,
the register drawer is a cha-ching thing;
ka-ching, ka-ching, let the drawer slam shut,
the westside hustle in the railroad rut.

[Outro — vocals stop here]
[Instrumental — the cash register rides out alone, no more singing]
[Long instrumental outro — the groove fades slowly all the way down to silence]
