| We would like for you to help us welcome a very distinguished speaker
|
| He hails from the DPG
|
| Would you please stand and welcome the one, the only
|
| OG Nate Dogg
|
| Now I was about eight when I caught my first case
|
| My mother she turned her back and bowed her head in disgrace
|
| Now I didn’t do a thing, I was just standing by
|
| Here’s a message to the youngsters today: standing by you can die
|
| Usually I’m in the house but today I snuck home
|
| And when I walk down the Long Beach streets, what a lesson they taught
|
| While walkin to the cornerstore a big mistake was made
|
| My big homey I was walkin with decided he needed to get paid
|
| So he loaded up his .32 and walked right in the store
|
| He said «Dear God, forgive me please but I can’t be broke no more»
|
| Now remember I was just eight, I thought this was a joke
|
| What I’m sayin I ain’t playin, it was funny til that nigga got smoked
|
| Can you guess who that could’ve been quite easily?
|
| But it wasn’t so I’m lucky to be standing right here to see
|
| One more day, one more
|
| One more day
|
| One more day, one more
|
| One more day
|
| One more day, I’m hangin around so I can see
|
| Little Nate have a pocket full of money just like his daddy
|
| Everyday I’m sellin big dope, it’s all that I know
|
| I ain’t workin and I got a baby so don’t axe me what for
|
| One more day, gather round everybody and listen to me
|
| I gotta another story about the penitentiary
|
| One more day, see while I was servin cavi I forgot to think
|
| Say for instance they catch me, little Nate’ll never see
|
| Now remember I’m sellin big dope but I’m packin my thangs
|
| And every corner police watchin, I ain’t crazy |
