The Legend of Connie Hawkins Lyrics – Dispatch
Singer: Dispatch
Title: The Legend of Connie Hawkins
It’s just a dream
It’s just a dream
It’s just a dream
It’s just a dream
It’s just a dream
It’s just a dream
It’s just a dream
It’s just a dream
Down on the courts in Bed Stuy
A legend rose from the streets
Just a poor kid with no use for what the others called gravity
People came from all around to see young Connie Hawkins do his thing
When the hawk went up against the best at Rucker Park
Oh how the choir would sing
Oh High flying kid
Do you know what you just did?
And it’s just a dream love
It’s just a dream love
What do you know
Hey pa, I think I’m gonna make it
I’m going away on a one way ticket
And it’s just a dream love
It’s just a dream love
Steady you go
Round hеre those are always sinking
Folks will say, Conniе, what were you thinking?
He lead the team in High School, he never lost once two years in a row
Got a scholarship to Iowa and knew that he had to go
He sent a letter home, to his papa, said, “pap, I’m going to the NBA”
But then out of nowhere his name got dropped into a scandal, always someone got to pay
Oh High flying kid
Do you know what you just did?
And it’s just a dream love
It’s just a dream love
What do you know
Hey pa, I think I’m gonna make it
I’m going away on a one way ticket
And it’s just a dream love
It’s just a dream love
Steady you go
Round here those are always sinking
Folks will say, Connie, what were you thinking?
So I got to, got to, got to get going now
Pap, there’s a detective here from the DA
And he’s telling me they’ll lock me away
If I don’t say what he wants me to say
So to all the kids on the back home lots
I swear it isn’t like they say
The investigators pushed me around
And then I was blackballed by the NBA
That playground legend
Who could dunk when he was eleven
With super natural abilities
Long before MJ, before the Doctor
And his Dreams were stolen
Stomped on and thrown in
He never got his day in the sun
And now here lies High Flying Hawkins
The greatest player that never was
So to all the kids on the back home lots
I swear it isn’t like they say
Oh The investigators pushed me around
And I was blackballed by the NBA
His dreams were stolen
Stomped on and thrown in
He never got his day in the sun
And now here lies High Flying Hawkins
The greatest player there ever was
