Slow Ride Lyrics

Cover art for Slow Ride lyrics by Beastie Boys

The Beasties are to rap as the Beatles are to rock. 1986 was not ready for lyrics like these:

Because I'm hard hittin', always bitten, cool as hell I got trees on my mirror so my car won't smell Sittin' around the house, gettin' high and watchin' tube Eating Colonel's chicken, drinkin' Heineken brew

...even though the third line was bitten from Steve Miller Band's "Take The Money And Run."
