HOOK: Kokane and Nate Dogg
I was born... coming up
from the ghetto
Where the OG's never let
go
This is somethin I had to
know
Had to be real sneaky
Watched niggas that tried
to creep on me
Stay away from the ones
that's sheisty
That's what my momma always
told me
When ya livin on the eastside,
ghetto
In the ghetto, ghetto
I never knew what my life
would be, ghetto
In the ghetto, ghetto
I'll show what I'm talkin
bout, ghetto
In the ghetto, ghetto
When ya comin from the eastside,
ghetto
In the ghetto, ghetto
I see you takin bills
[Kam]
I'm ready to ride, ready
to roll
Ay check this mack I bet
you're boyfriend aint knowin
That I'm steadily blowin
your back out
Watch me track out on these
niggas and bounce out on these hoes
Get at em like "what's up
trick" you know how it goes
It's Friday night, the club
is about to close
And I was lookin fabulous
So I, got up to stretch
'bout to catch me one of these stragglers
True eastside dogs, and
we barkin not simpin
Yo holmes 'bout that time
to start this parking lot pimpin
I keep that thang, huh,
posted in the same spot
Nothin but my khaki shorts,
house shoes, boxers and my suede shine
I'm from the home of the
riots
That's before the peace
died but I'm still hollin out eastside
[Goldie Loc]
Uhh, what y'all busters
gon do
When the pimps, bangers,
and hustlers smash on you
It aint about who's sellin
the most caine
Put us all together nigga
see you run thangs
If you can't hang, stay
the fuck out the kitchen
Bitch I'm ghetto fabbed
out, so fuck politickin
Waitin for a chance and
the shit it never happened
Time is money, and when
you get it keep it clackin
All you hear is, with my
two inch twist
I keep the goodyear grip,
so the dubs don't slip
If you want my claims, I
think you besta make a change
So close your eyes when
I let my back end hang
I ride til the motherfucking
wheels fall off
Domie's got daytons, Goldie's
got daytons
[Tray Deee]
All burnt to the turf up
in a goddamn fool
Old school motherfucker
breakin jaws and rules
Choose to bang, who's to
blame but myself and the set
All my peers through the
years steady gettin it whet
Give me a rep, that's what
I wanted most in my life
Did it all like a hawk,
so I'm totin my stripes
Will I quit it, I'm comitted
til the day I drop
Slangin rocks, sprayin shots,
sayin fuck the cops
Locked up in the Chevy and
my switches is hot
Gave em pain as I swang
on the bitches I sopt
Bandanna on the antenna
swangin and ridin
Eastsidin, ghetto life is
invitin
[Snoop Dogg]
Me and my brother had to
walk to school
I used to get him he downposed
for joe cool
A couple of dickies, with
some quarter sacks
Damn cuz I can't believe
my kinfolk gave me that
Had a nigga lookin G'd up
With the scarf on my head,
stealin sheets on my bed
I seen baloney sandwiches
without no motherfuckin bread
I stole a pack of chips
with the big homie Fred
Now we sippin on some kool
aid
I got suspended from school
for cussin out the teacher's aid
And now I'm bout to get
a whoopin, but you know I'm steady woofin
On the side where they ride
the most
Eastside is the beach, westside
is the coast
And we ghetto like a motherfuckin
hot buttered toast
In the mornin with some
government cheese (government cheese)
We keep it ghetto like a
nigga shootin dice on his knees
Get your money first rule
number one, hello
Livin it up is livin life
in the ghetto
