1
Darkest of night
2
With the moon shining bright
3
There's a set goin' strong
4
Lotta things goin' on
5
The man of the hour
6
Has an air of great power
7
The dudes have envied him for so long
8
[Chorus]
9
Oh, Superfly
10
You're gonna make your fortune by and by
11
But if you lose, don't ask no questions why
12
The only game you know is Do or Die
13
Ah-ha-ha
14
Hard to understand
15
What a hell of a man
16
This cat of the slum
17
Had a mind, wasn't dumb
18
But a weakness was shown
19
'Cause his hustle was wrong
20
His mind was his own
21
But the man lived alone
22
[Chorus]
23
The game he plays he plays for keeps
24
Hustlin' times and ghetto streets
25
Tryin' ta get over
26
(That's what he tryin' to do, y'all)
27
Taking all that he can take
28
Gambling with the odds of fate
29
Tryin' ta get over
30
Tryin' ta get over
31
Tryin' ta get over
32
Tryin' ta get over
33
Woo, Superfly
34
The aim of his role
35
Was to move a lot of blow
36
Ask him his dream
37
What does it mean?
38
He woudn't know
39
"Can't be like the rest"
40
Is the most he'll confess
41
But the time's running out
42
And there's no happiness
43
[Chorus]
44
Superfly
45
Superfly
46
Superfly
47
Superfly
48
Tryin' ta get over
49
Tryin' ta get over
50
Tryin' ta get over
51
Tryin' ta get over
52
Tryin' ta get over
53
Tryin' ta get over
54
Tryin' ta get over
55
Tryin' ta get over
56
Tryin' ta get over
57
Tryin' ta get over
