Flatbush boy cruisin’ Sheepshead Bay
His boardwalk mama just a sniff away
Underground DMT, ridin’ thunder train
The Coney Island white fish boy is on the run again

Ooooh, runnin’ with the pack
Ooooh, and never lookin’ back
Ooooh, know’s just where he’s been
That Coney Island white fish boy’s
Been there and back again

Sixteen years with his boardwalk queen
And at steeplechase, she used to wet his dreams
She combs her hair, that flamin’ jewel
Streaked with Clorox bleach
Coney gettin’ down and dirty
Snortin’ up the beach

And she’d be screamin’ (Coney)
And she’d be dreamin’ (Coney)
Go get ’em Coney

(Coney), Bone To Bone screamin’
(Coney) She be screamin’ (Coney)

In town
Get back in town
Get back, a get down
Get back in town
Coney!
She’d be screamin’ (Coney)
Best believe it (Coney)
