| Back in the days before Nate Dogg would get it
|
| He used to try to holler at this girl named Pam
|
| The type of female wit fly Gucci gear
|
| She wore a big turkish wole wit a weave in her hair
|
| When they tried to kick it, she’d always fess
|
| Talkin about baby please she wrought his service stress
|
| Since he wasn’t no type of big chronic dealer
|
| The homie Nate Dogg didn’t appeal to her
|
| But now he wear boots that match with his suits
|
| And push a Lexus Coupe that’s extra cheap
|
| And now she stop flautin and won’t it speakin
|
| Be comin round the Pound every single weekend

| I got a little cousin that’s kinda plain
|
| He bring the heeb wit tha beep for the Dogg Pound gang
|
| A mellow type of fellow best laid back
|
| But back in the day he wasn’t nuthin like that
|
| I remember when he used to scrap every day
|
| When my auntie would tell him he would never obey
|
| He wore his khakis hangin down wit his starks untied
|
| And a blue and grey cap that said the Eastside
|
| Around my neighborhood tha people treated him bad
|
| Said Daz was the worst thing his mom ever had
|
| They said he grow up to be nuttin but a gangsta
|
| Or be there in jail or some other shaker
|
| But now he’s grown up to be a surprise
|
| D-A-Z got a hit record slangin world wide
|
| Now the same people that didn’t like him as a child
|
| Bought the Dogg Food, Doggfather, and Doggystyle

| Warren G
|
| He cut grass trasform wit finesse
|
| And all that mess
|
| I remember when we first started to rap
|
| He tried to get this job at Calvin’s record shop
|
| He was in it to win it, but the boss front and said
|
| Sorry Warren G but there’s no help wanted
|
| Now my homie Warren still tried
|
| On and on and on til the like break of dawn
|
| To work at tha V-I-P would be the link
|
| But they looked right past him so my homie straight dip

|
| When I was a teenager I tried to be down
|
| And since they wasn’t tryin to hear me I made the Dogg Pound
|
| I saw a crew on 2−1 street
|
| And said, 'Can I be down champ?' |
| They said
|
| No, and treated me like a wet food stamp
|
| After gettin rejected, I ain’t runnin upset
|
| I said, 'What's a Dogg do to?' |
| Rhymes at rates
|
| When I used to go to parties, they make me wait
|
| What I have to get on the mic to set M-C straight
|
| I ain’t never love no hoe since I’m listenin to my music
|
| They acted like I wanted to keep hangin with the juzi
|
