Lyrics

Outside in the night this is the spot
Studio one this place is hot
Ska music, reggae, that's what we got
And we'll make you dance if you like it or not
Talkin' about a pool shark
Pool shark
Pool shark
Pool shark
In this town without pity there is no chance
No shinning out from a cheap romance
Cause you take your money, take your chance
Those downtown dudes pay in advance
Talkin' about a pool shark
Pool shark
Pool shark
Pool shark
Well up he comes and he's ready to shoot
With a .38 stuck in his boot
Ready for action, loaded with loot
Sharper he looks, the sharper he shoots
Talkin' about a pool shark
Pool shark
Pool shark
Pool shark
Well if you see this man don't hesitate
Just make that break and don't be late
Cause you ain't too drunk and you ain't too late
When all that money goes down with the 8
Ah yadadadadadadada
Talkin' about a pool shark
Pool shark
Pool shark
Pool shark
