It cost me just six bucks
Filled a plastic bag with the stuff I need in a big dumb car I'm off my knees
Fill it up and make me start again
Ooh it's the rumble and moan
Transistor AM cassette drone
It's the sound without a home address and hydromatic hopelessness
Fill it up and start over again
All night!
R. A. D. I. O.
Hit me hard and hit me low
Static engine blow the scene, rumble in the old machine
R. A. D. I. O.
Ah, hit me just like Lionel Rose
R. A. D. I. O.
I heard stomach and soul
A rumble underneath my toes
And it didn't come with a clear face, designer punk or daily rate
Fill it up and make it start again
Yeah fill it up, don't make me start again and again
All night!
R. A. D. I. O.
Hit me hard and hit me low
Static engine blow the scene a rumble in the old machine
R. A. D. I. O.
Ah hit me just like Lionel Rose
R. A. D. I. O.
A rumble in the old machine
R. A. D. I. O.
A rumble in the old machine
R. A. D. I. O.
Yeah, a rumble in the old machine
R. A. D. I. O.
A rumble in the old machine
Ronnie James D. I. O.
Fell down like Bocephus under all the noise and grease
Automatic mono-style rip me up, monkey style
The song "Rumble" by U-God, Leatha Face, Inspectah Deck, and Method Man is a high-energy rap song that has a driving beat and gritty lyrics that speak to the struggles of daily life. The opening lines of the song describe the singer's new haircut, which only cost them six bucks. The song then talks about filling up a car with supplies and starting over again, perhaps implying a cycle of poverty, struggle, and survival.
The song's title is repeated throughout the chorus, which involves a number of sonic references, including transistor AM cassette drone, static engine blow, and a rumble in the old machine. The song is accompanied by heavy beats and an intense guitar riff that adds to the sense of excitement and anticipation. The song also references the Australian boxer Lionel Rose, who was a major figure in the 1960s and 1970s.
