Song about a hitman or a hit or something, with a chorus like "Don't double cross the ones you love; Don't double cross the ones you need etc. etc."
Starts off: A little shot...into the night Spilling the colours of the neon light Baxter(?)the hitman is driving with his crew The baddest boys both born and raised in .... They're looking for a man named Sweet Tyrone ......he was a friend But is no more He broke the main rule that controls the street You don't mess with the ones you love The ones you need
Chorus

Thanks very much.
Is there a name to the song, and can it be found on any collection?
