Lil' Fink was playing chess in the yard with Tommy Gnossis
Fink was moving that rook any which way that he likes
'Round the hedges, half past one, came a mob of bomber jackets
It was Fat Black Joe and The Massey Boys, they was all worked up
Mrs. Murray saw the rabble and pulled her clotheslines in
Mr. Chang in the Chinese shop closed up and shuttered quick
Tommy jumped up, said, "Fink, hey, Fink, let's gets to going"
Fink made a fist and said, "Nah, boy, let's turn it up"

(Hey, Big Man, I hear your a tough guy now)
I'm in the middle of a heated commotion
(I said, hey, Big Man)
I'm in the middle of a heated commotion
(I hear your a tough guy now)

I said, now, he thinks he a pretty boy, Fink, he's sitting on top of the world
Hey, this skinny, slick, mother-motherfucker put his fingers in my ol' girl
Fat Black Joe pulled out the blick and they scattered and boy, did they run
But no, not Fink, no, Fink said, "Joe, I ain't scared of no rusty ass gun"
Fink tuck-jumped straight at Joe, the chessboard went a-flying
Tommy and them Massey Boys all bloody and some of them crying
Joe fell back and the blick, yeah, the blick, it went a-grazing
Fink threw the gun in the street and his fists, they went a-blazing
