| Yeah baby
|
| You just got out here?
|
| What, on Amtrack or Greyhound?
|
| Oh, my name is Kool Keith (yeah)
|
| Anyway, be careful
|
| You know, people don’t care about you here
|
| Everything’s kind of phony and plastic
|
| Gimme a call
|
| Don’t think twice…
|
| I taught pretty girls the ropes
|
| I gave them money
|
| When they was hungry
|
| When they were starving
|
| I put 'em on a spot
|
| And dressed 'em up real hot
|
| I was their father watchin' cops on that sunset block
|
| Right in Denny’s, I caught 'em cryin', countin' pennies
|
| Straight off the Greyhound, you need a place to lay down?
|
| Don’t worry 'bout me
|
| Back home, how mommy be?
|
| We on our way, each girl today makes a G
|
| We pay them full, the top queens stick with me
|
| I’m out there cold, blank from the black hole
|
| I keep scopin' 'em, national recruitin' 'em
|
| Brothers get cheap, I still throw bags of loot to them
|
| You ran away from home
|
| To be a big star
|
| (I'm out here for you)
|
| You ran away from home
|
| To be a big star
|
| (Let me take that)
|
| You ran away from home
|
| To be a big star
|
| (I'm out here for you)
|
| You ran away from home
|
| To be a big star
|
| (Let me take that)
|
| I lay back with feather brims
|
| Rings in the Cadillac
|
| Teach my little girls, babies, show them how to act
|
| I hit the Vegas scene with models from a magazine
|
| Everybody tested, no HIV, the staple’s clean
|
| Movin' well, my pockets grow and comes swell
|
| We’re on our way, the Beverly Centre shoppin' everyday
|
| Platinum blondes and black girls I took from conds
|
| LA Express, advertisin' shapes, all sizes
|
| My Macquarie, immaculate, pumpin' every year
|
| Sharp with shoes, dance royal blues
|
| Suits from Paris by the De Marris
|
| I gets mine, my best girl is a dollar sign
|
| No harsh beatings and whippins, just mental power
|
| I close the doors and do my preachin' for an hour
|
| You out there, I’m still here. |
| Who bought your new hair?
|
| (Think twice…)
|
| You ran away from home
|
| To be a big star
|
| (I'm out here for you)
|
| You ran away from home
|
| To be a big star
|
| (Let me take that)
|
| You ran away from home
|
| To be a big star
|
| (I'm out here for you)
|
| You ran away from home
|
| To be a big star
|
| (Let me take that)
|
| I’ve got mattresses, and all types of beds
|
| My game is too large, with stacks payin' off the feds
|
| I’m overridin' that boyfriend, fake married game
|
| You out here hungry, no place to stay, what’s your name?
|
| My rent is so high like eyebrows above your eye
|
| Applications are there, and girls do apply
|
| Don’t cry, you need a place to go beddie-bye?
|
| I’ll take you there, by you clothes everywhere
|
| Fix your weave, beauty parlors give you new hair
|
| Braids and action with new style like Janet Jackson
|
| You be smilin' with cheeks out, showin' satisfaction
|
| Upscale limits, with foxes on the front scrimmage
|
| LAPD under tables, wanna work with me
|
| From New York City, the operation’s lookin' pretty
|
| Run with models from Italy, just hit the lotto
|
| Asian girl, mixed with black, with a Jheri curl
|
| You ran away from home
|
| To be a big star
|
| (I'm out here for you)
|
| You ran away from home
|
| To be a big star
|
| (Let me take that)
|
| You ran away from home
|
| To be a big star
|
| (I'm out here for you)
|
| You ran away from home
|
| To be a big star
|
| (Let me take that)
|
| You ran away from home
|
| To be a big star
|
| (I'm out here for you)
|
| As the stars twinkle, you look
|
| At the city of lost angels
|
| Out here
|
| With nothing to eat
|
| Cold weather
|
| Sittin' in Denny’s
|
| For a glass of cold ice water
|
| Come and have a cup of tea |
