| If your head is as big as Shamello’s
|
| If your bank is the check cashin place
|
| If you put on panty-hose instead of shavin your legs
|
| If you use grease that you used over and over again
|
| If you only go to church on Easter and holidays
|
| Then you ghetto, believe that
|
| Can you be rich and be ghetto? |
| (Yep)
|
| And just cause you poor do that mean that you ghetto? |
| (Nope)
|
| So people don’t understand what it mean to be ghetto
|
| And if you gonna ask then you probably never know
|
| Bein ghetto, it’s just the things we do sometimes
|
| Like hangin your clothes on the oven to dry
|
| But you late, you gotta go and they ain’t ready yet
|
| (You put 'em on anyway, and rock 'em halfway wet)
|
| First you wear then return everything you buy
|
| Always lookin for a discount 'til the day you die
|
| Got three kids, by three different guys
|
| (And all they names begin with La, Ta and Sha)
|
| You know you ghetto when you use a wrench for a channel changer
|
| No antenna, you gotta use a metal hanger
|
| Drink from the container and put it back in the fridge
|
| (Knowin damn well the shit was wrong you did)
|
| Put salt on your food, before you even taste it
|
| Get a doggy bag, ghetto niggas ain’t wastin shit
|
| You know you ghetto, no, you know you grimy
|
| (When you iron dirty pants 'til them shits get shiny)
|
| The ghetto’s not a place, it don’t matter what colour you are
|
| You can be white as chalk or as black as tar
|
| And it really don’t matter how much money you have
|
| (You can live on Fifth Ave. and be ghetto fab)
|
| You know you ghetto when your soap is the size of Chiclet
|
| Run into the kitchen wet for dishwashin liquid
|
| The water cold cause they shut off all your power
|
| (You know you ghetto if you pee in the shower)
|
| No toilet paper, somebody used the last you had
|
| No problem, just get a Daily News or a paper bag
|
| Ball it up and crumble it, make it soft in your ass
|
| (But when you flush, the toilet always gets stopped up)
|
| And if you got the money, the landlord never get it
|
| We never pay the rent, yo we almost got evicted
|
| If this shit is funny or offendin you
|
| (Chances are, it’s because you’re ghetto too)
|
| Can you be rich and be ghetto (3x)
|
| And if you gotta ask then you’ll probably never know
|
| Ghetto
|
| East Coast is the ghetto
|
| West Coast is the ghetto
|
| South Side is the ghetto
|
| Everywhere is the ghetto
|
| The ghetto
|
| The ghetto
|
| The ghetto
|
| I’ll probably die, in the ghetto.
|
| (Hey, I got to buy some weed man, you got anything?)
|
| Nah, I ain’t selling no weed over there man
|
| (Dude, please I drove all out here for an hour man)
|
| Yo, dog, I not selling no weed over alright man?
|
| Just spent ten years in jail man, back the f**k off me man
|
| You probably a cop (Nah, man I ain’t no cop man
|
| I listen to Snoop, I listen to Wu-Tang, Sticky Fingaz man
|
| I’m down with that s**t) How much you got?
|
| (I got like a hundred bucks on me man)
|
| Give me your f**king money man. |
| Where’s your f**king wallet man |
