[Verse 1]
Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise
Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise
Am F C Am
There's a she wolf in disguise
Am F C Am
Coming out, coming out, coming out
Am F C Am
A domesticated girl that's all you ask of me
Am F C Am
Darling it is no joke, this is lycanthropy
Am F C Am
The moon's awake now, with eyes wide open
Am F C Am
My body's craving, so feed the hungry
Am F C Am
I've been devoting myself to you Monday to Monday and Friday to Friday
Am F C Am
Not getting enough retribution or decent incentives to keep me at it
Am F C Am
I'm starting to feel just a little abused like a coffee machine in an office
Am F C Am
So I'm gonna go somewhere cozy to get me a lover and tell you all about it
[Chorus]
Am F C Am
There's a she wolf in your closet
Am F C Am
Open up and set her free
Am F C Am
There's a she wolf in your closet
Am F C Am
Let it out so it can breathe
[Interlude]

Am F C Am
Sitting across a bar, staring right at her prey
Am F C Am
It's going well so far, she's gonna get her way
Am F C Am
Nocturnal creatures are not so prudent
Am F C Am
The moon's my teacher, and I'm her student
Am F C Am
To locate the single men, I got on me a special radar
Am F C Am
And the fire department hotline in case I get in trouble later
Am F C Am
Not looking for cute little divos or rich city guys that just want to enjoy
Am F C Am
But having a very good time and behave very bad in the arms of a boy
[Chorus]
Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise
Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise
Am F C Am
There's a she wolf in disguise
Am F C Am
Coming out, coming out, coming out
Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise
Am F C Am
S.O.S. she's in disguise
Am F C Am
There's a she wolf in disguise
Am F C Am
Coming out, coming out, coming out
[Solo]
Am F C Am x2
[Outro]
Am F C Am
There's a she wolf in your closet
Am F C Am
Let it out so it can breathe
[Bridge-]
It is a weeping, and a moaning, and a gnashing of teeth
It is a weeping, and a moaning, and a gnashing of teeth
When it comes to my sound which is the champion sound
Believe! Believe!

How you feel?

A new feel
And it will never get old
Not in my soul, not in my spirit, keep it alive

Til it turns from color to black and white
Or do you not think so far ahead?
Cause I've been thinking about forever
Or do you not think so far ahead?
Cause I've been thinking about

Here are the lyrics-
I wish I could tie you up in my shoes
Make you feel unpretty too
I always thought I was beautiful
But what does that mean to you
Look into the mirror
Who's inside there
The one with the long hair
Same old me again today
My outsides look cool
My insides are blue
Everytime I think I'm through
It's because of you
I try different ways
But it's all the same
At the end of the day
I have myself to blame
I'm just tripping
You can buy your hair if it won't grow
You can fix your nose if he says so
You can buy all the makeup that Mac can make
But if you can't look inside you
Find out who am I to
Be in a position to make me feel so
Damn unpretty
I make you feel unpretty too
Never insecure until I met you
Now I'm being stupid
I used to be so cute to me
Just a little bit skinny
Why do I look to all these things
To keep you happy
Maybe get rid of you
And then I'll get back to me
My outsides look cool
My insides are blue
Everytime I think I'm through
It's because of you
I try different ways
But it's all the same
At the end of the day
I have myself to blame
Keep on tripping
Chorus x2
I make you feel unpretty too
Make me feel unpretty
Oh oh, oh oh oh x4
Chorus
You can buy your hair if it won't grow (ha ha ha ha)
You can buy all the makeup that Mac can make
But if you can't look inside you
Be in a position to make me feel so
You can buy your hair if it won't grow

Slow down
Never seen anything so lovely
Now turn around
And bless me with your beauty, cutie
A butterfly tattoo
Right above your navel
Your belly button's pierced too
Just like I like it girl
Come take a walk with me
You'll be impressed by
The game that I kick to you

Like a flower fully bloomed in the summertime
You're ready
To be watered by this conversation

My hand, yeah yeah

Verse 1
E B A
I used to think one day we'd tell the story of us
How we met and the sparks flew instantly
E B A
People would say, they're the lucky ones

I used to know my place was a spot next to you

Now I'm searching the room for an empty seat

Womb To Tomb
Verse 1
Lay down you gun, lay down your god
We are but germs on one big rock
The universe is spreading thin
It's up to us to bring it in
My suicide as sacrifice
Would keep the secret locked inside
And so I breathe my second life
Living proof, that love survives
Chorus-
Your life is not your own
From womb to tomb you are bound to others
3X
Verse 2-
There is no I, there is only we
So soon shall this whole wide world see
Around the sun which we believe
Take all but only what you need
Please take these words to paradise
Show them there is more than one good life
We are all one, once every time
We ask why
Chorus
Bridge-
We are here
We are now
We are this moment
We are loud
We are the answer
Of love you're after
There is no one son of god
We all are

Spread out now Rosie doctor come cut loose her momma's reins
You know playing blind man's bluff is a little baby's game
You pick up little dynamite - I'll pick up little gun
Together we're gonna go out tonight and make that highway run
Bb Am Dm
You don't have to call me lieutenant Rosie and I don't wanna be your son

The only lover I'm ever gonna need you're some sweet little girl's tongue

Ah Rosie you're the one
F Bb F C F Bb F C
Dynamite's in the Belfry baby playing with the bats
Little gun's downtown in front of Woolworths trying out his attitude on the cats
Papa's on the corner - waiting for the bus
Mommas home in the window - waiting up for us
She'll be there in that chair 'till they wrestle her upstairs cause you know we
ain't gonna come
I ain't here on business baby I'm only here for fun
And Rosie you're the one
[Chorus-]
F Bb F C F Bb
Rosalita jump a little lighter - Senorita come sit by my fire
I just wanna be your lover ain't no lie - Rosalita you're my strong desire
Jack-the -rabbit and weak-knee'd-Willie you know they're gonna be there
Sloppy Sue and big-bones-Billy they'll be comin' up for air
They're gonna play some pool - skip some school
act real cool - stay out all night - it's gonna be alright
(C) Gm C Csus4 C Csus2 C
So Rosie come out tonight - oh baby come out tonight
Windows are for cheaters - chimneys for the poor
Closets are for hangers - winners use the door
So use it Rosie - that's what it's there for
(CHORUS)
C Gm
And I know your momma she don't like me 'cuz I play in a rock and roll band
Dm Am
And I know your daddy he don't dig me but he never did understand
F Gm
Your poppa lowered the boom - he locked you in your room - I'm comin' to lend a
hand
Dm Am
I'm coming to liberate you - confiscate you - I want to be your man
Bb C F Am
Some day we'll look back on this and it will all seem funny

But now you're sad - your mommas mad and your

Well tell him this is his last chance - to get his daughter in a fine romance
C11 C C11 C C11 C C11 C (quickly)
Because the record company Rosie - just gave me a big advance
And my tires were slashed and I almost crashed but the lord had mercy
My machine she's dud stuck in the mud somewhere in the swamps of Jersey
Hold on tight stay up all night Rosie I'm coming on strong
By the time we meet the morning light I will hold you in my arms
I know a pretty little place in Southern California down San Diego way
There's a little cafe - where they play guitar all night and all day
You can hear 'em in the back room strummin'
So hold tight baby 'cuz don't you know daddy's coming

[Verse]
F C
A lonely mother gazing out of her window
D# A#
Staring at a son that she just can't touch
F C
If at any time he's in a jam, she'll be by his side
D# A#
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much
F C
But all the praying just ain't helping at all
D# A#
'cause he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble
F C
So he goes out and he makes his money the best way he knows how
D# A#
Another body laying cold in the gutter
Listen to me
[Chorus]
F C
Don't go chasing waterfalls
D#
Please stick to the rivers
A#
And the lakes that you're used to
F
I know that you're gonna have it your way
C
Or nothing at all
D# A#
But I think you're moving too fast
[Verse]
F C
Little precious has a natural obsession
D# A#
For temptation but he just can't see
F C
She gives him loving that his body can't handle
D# A#
But all he can say is baby it's good to me
F C
One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror
D# A#
But he doesn't recognize his own face
F C
His health is fading and he doesn't know why
D# A#
3 letters took him to his final resting place
Y'all don't hear me?
[Chorus]

Don't go chasing waterfalls

Come on, come on
[Verse]
F
I seen a rainbow yesterday
C
But too many storms have come and gone
D#
Leavin' a trace of not one God-given ray
Is it because my life is ten shades of gray?
A#
I pray all ten fade away
Seldom praise Him for the sunny days
F
And like His promise is true
C
Only my faith can undo
The many chances I blew
D#
To bring my life to anew
Clear blue and unconditional skies
A#
Have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cries
F
My only bleedin' hope
Is for the folk who can't cope
C
With such an endurin' pain
That it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain
D#
Who's to blame for tootin' 'caine into your own vein?
A#
What a shame you shoot and aim for someone else's brain
F
You claim the insane and name this day in time
C
For fallin' prey to crime
I say the system got you victim to your own mind
D#
Dreams are hopeless aspirations
A#
In hopes of comin' true believe in yourself the rest is up to me and you
[Chorus]
F C
Don't go chasing waterfalls
D#
Please stick to the rivers
A#
And the lakes that you're used to

Listen to the song for rhythm and the layout of the song. Ive tried to tab out the
as best as i could and hope its clear enough to understand.
Lyrics-
said a hip hop
the hippie the hippie
to the hip hip hop, a you dont stop the rock it
to the bang bang boogie, say up jumped the boogie
to the rhythm of the boogie, the beat
now what you hear is not a test--i'm rappin to the beat
and me, the groove, and my friends are gonna try to move your feet
see i am wonder mike and i like to say hello
to the black, to the white, the red, and the brown, the purple and yellow
but first i gotta bang bang the boogie to the boogie
say up jump the boogie to the bang bang boogie
let's rock, you dont stop
rock the riddle that will make your body rock
well so far you've heard my voice but i brought two friends along
and next on the mike is my man hank
come on, hank, sing that song
check it out, i'm the c-a-s-an-the-o-v-a
and the rest is f-l-y
ya see i go by the code of the doctor of the mix
and these reasons i'll tell ya why
ya see i'm six foot one and i'm tons of fun
and i dress to a T
ya see i got more clothes than muhammad ali and i dress so viciously
i got bodyguards, i got two big cars
that definitely ain't the wack
i got a lincoln continental and a sunroof cadillac
so after school, i take a dip in the pool
which really is on the wall
i got a color tv so i can see
the knicks play basketball
hear me talkin bout checkbooks, credit cards
more money than a sucker could ever spend
but i wouldnt give a sucker or a bum from the rucker
not a dime till i made it again
everybody go, hotel motel
what you're gonna do today (say what)
cause i'm going to get a fly girl, gonna get some spanking drive off off in a fresh oj.
go hotel, motel, holiday inn
say if your girl starts actin up, then you take her friend
master g, my mellow
its on you so what you gonna do
well it's on n on n on on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
i said m-a-s, t-e-r, a g with a double e
i said i go by the unforgettable name
of the man they call the master gee
well, my name is known all over the world
by all the foxy ladies and the pretty girls
i'm goin down in history
as the baddest rapper there ever could be
now i'm feelin the highs and ya feelin the lows
the beat starts gettin into your toes
ya start poppin ya fingers and stompin your feet
and movin your body while youre sittin in your seat
and the damn ya start doin the freak
i said damn, right outta your seat
then ya throw your hands high in the air
ya rockin to the rhythm, shake your derriere
ya rockin to the beat without a care
with the sureshot m.c.s for the affair
now, im not as tall as the rest of the gang
but i rap to the beat just the same
i dot a little face and a pair of brown eyes
all im here to do ladies is hypnotize
singin on n n on n on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
singin on n n on n on on n on
like a hot buttered a pop da pop da pop dibbie dibbie
pop da pop pop ya dont dare stop
come alive yall gimme what ya got
i guess by now you can take a hunch
and find that i am the baby of the bunch
'but that's okay i still keep in stride
cause all i'm here to do is just wiggle your behind
singin on n n on n on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
singin on n n on n on on n on

but im the grandmaster with the three mc's
that shock the house for the young ladies
and when you come inside, into the front
you do the freak, spank, and do the bump
and when the sucker mc's try to prove a point
[ Tab from- http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-sugarhill-gang/128630.html ]
we're treacherous trio, we're the serious joint
a from sun to sun and from day to day
i sit down and write a brand new rhyme
because they say that miracles never cease
i've created a devastating masterpiece
i'm gonna rock the mike till you cant resist
everybody, i say it goes like this
well i was comin home late one dark afternoon
a reporter stopped me for a interview
she said she's heard stories and she's heard fables
that i'm vicious on the mike and the turntable
this young reporter i did adore
so i rocked some vicious rhymes like i never did before
she said damn fly guy im in love with you
the casanova legend must have been true
i said by the way baby what's your name
said i go by the name of lois lane
and you could be my boyfiend you surely can
just let me quit my boyfriend called superman
i said he's a fairy i do suppoose
flyin through the air in pantyhose
he may be very sexy or even cute
but he looks like a sucker in a blue and red suit
i said you need a man who's got finesse
and his whole name across his chest
he may be able to fly all through the night
but can he rock a party til the early light
he cant satisfy you with his little worm
but i can bust you out with my super sperm
i go do it, i go do it, i go do it, do it , do it
an i'm here an i'm there i'm big bang hank, im everywhere
just throw your hands up in the air
and party hardy like you just dont care
let's do it don't stop yall a tick a tock yall you don't stop
go hotel motel what you gonna do today (say what)
im gonna get a fly girl gonna get some spank drive off in a def oj
everybody go hotel motel holiday inn
you say if your girl starts actin up then you take her friend
i say skip, dive, what can i say
i can't fit em all inside my oj
so i just take half and bust them out
i give the rest to master gee so he could shock the house
it was twelve o'clock one friday night
i was rockin to the beat and feelin all right
everybody was dancin on the floor
doin all the things they never did before
and then this fly fly girl with a sexy lean
she came into the bar, she came into the scene
she traveled deeper inside the room
all the fellas checked out her white sasoons
she came up to the table, looked into my eyes
then she turned around and shook her behind
so i said to myself, its time for me to release
my vicious rhyme i call my masterpiece
and now people in the house this is just for you
a little rap to make you boogaloo
now the group ya hear is called phase two
and let me tell ya somethin we're a hell of a crew
once a week we're on the street
just a-cuttin' the jams and making it free
for you to party ya got to have the movies
so we'll get right down and give you the groove
for you to dance you gotta get hype
so we'll get right down for you tonight
now the system's on and the girls are there
ya definitely have a rockin affair
but let me tell ya somethin there's still one fact
and to have a party ya got to have a rap
so when the party's over you're makin it home
and tryin to sleep before the break of dawn
and while ya sleepin ya start to dream
and thinkin how ya danced on the disco scene
my name appears in your mind
yeah, a name you know that was right on time
it was phase two just a doin a do
rockin ya down cause ya know we could
to the rhythm of the beat that makes ya freak
come alive girls get on your feet
to the rhythm of the beat to the beat the beat
to the double beat beat that it makes ya freak
to the rhythm of the beat that says ya go on
on n on into the break of dawn
now i got a man comin on right now
he's guaranteed to throw down
he goes by the name of wonder mike
come on wonder mike do what ya like
i say a can of beer that's sweeter than honey
like a millionaire that has no money
like a rainy day that is not wet
like a gamblin fiend that does not bet
like dracula with out his fangs
like the boogie to the boogie without the boogie bang
like collard greens that dont taste good
like a tree that's not made out of wood
like goin up and not comin down
is just like the beat without the sound no sound
to the beat beat, ya do the freak
everybody just rock and dance to the beat
have you ever went over a friends house to eat
and the food just ain't no good
i mean the macaroni's soggy the peas are mushed
and the chicken tastes like wood
so you try to play it off like you think you can
by sayin that youre full
and then your friend says momma he's just being polite
he ain't finished uh uh that's bull
so your heart starts pumpin and you think of a lie
and you say that you already ate
and your friend says man there's plenty of food
so you pile some more on your plate
while the stinky foods steamin your mind starts to dreamin
of the moment that it's time to leave
and then you look at your plate and your chickens slowly rottin
into something that looks like cheese
oh so you say that's it i got to leave this place
i dont care what these people think
im just sittin here makin myself nauseous
with this ugly food that stinks
so you bust out the door while its still closed
still sick from the food you ate
and then you run to the store for quick relief
from a bottle of kaopectate
and then you call your friend two weeks later
to see how he has been
and he says i understand about the food
baby bubbah but we're still friends
with a hip hop the hippie to the hippie
the hip hip a hop a you don't stop the rockin
to the bang bang boogie
say up jump the boogie to the rhythm of the boogie the beat
i say hank can ya rock
can ya rock to the rhythm that just don't stop
can ya hip me to the shoobie doo
i said come on make the make the people move
i go to the halls and then ring the bell
because i am the man with the clientele
and if ya ask me why i rock so well
a big bang, i got clientele
and from the time i was only six years old
i never forgot what i was told
it was the best advice that i ever had
it came from my wise dear old dad
he said sit down punk i wanna talk to you
and don't say a word until im through
now there's a time to laugh a time to cry
a time to live and a time to die
a time to break and a time to chill
to act civilized or act real ill
but whatever ya do in your lifetime
ya never let a mc steal your rhyme
so from six to six til this very day
ill always remember what he had to say
so when the sucker mc's try to chump my style
i let them know that i'm versatile
i got style finesse and a little black book
that's filled with rhymes and i know you wanna look
but the thing that separates you from me
and that's called originality
because my rhymes are on from what you heard
i didnt even bite and not a go word
and i say a little more later on tonight
so the suker mc's can bite all night
a tick a tock yall a beat beat yall
a lets rock yall ya don't stop

Uh, Young Money
Am G
I know way too many people here right now
C
That I didn't know last year, who the fuck are y'all?
Am G
I swear it feels like the last few nights
C Am
we been everywhere and back but, I just can't remember it all
G C
What am I doin'? What am I doin'?

Oh, yeah, that's right, I'm doin' me, I'm doin me
C
I'm livin' life right now, mayne
Am G
And this what I'ma do 'til it's over, ‘til it's over
But it's far from over
E5
Bottles on me, long as someone drink it
Never drop the ball, fuck are y'all thinkin'?
Makin' sure the Young Money ship is never sinkin'
‘Bout to set it off, set it off, Jada Pinkett
I shouldn't've drove, tell me how I'm gettin' home
You too fine to be layin' down in bed alone
I could teach you how to speak my language, Rosetta Stone
I swear this life is like the sweetest thing I've ever known
‘Bout to go Thriller Mike Jackson on these n***s
All I need's a fucking red jacket with some zippers
Super good smiddoke, a package of the swishers
I did it overnight, it couldn't happen any quicker
Y'all know them? Well, fuck it, me either
But point the biggest skeptic out, I'll make him a believer
It wouldn't be the first time I done it, throwin' hundreds
When I should be throwin' ones, , I run it (Ah)
Chorus
E5
One thing 'bout music, when it hits you feel no pain
And I swear I got that shit that make these es go insane
So they tell me that they love me, I know better than that, it's just game
It's just what comes with the fame, and I'm ready for that, I'm just sayin'
But I really can't complain, everything is kosher
Two thumbs up, Ebert and Roeper
I really can't see the end getting any closer
But I prolly still be the man when everything is over
So I'm riding through the city with my high beams on
Can you see me? Can you see me? Get your Visine on
Y'all just do not fit the picture, turn your widescreen on
If you thinkin' I'ma quit before I die, dream on
Man, they treat me like a legend, am I really this cold?
I'm really too young to be feelin' this old
It's about time you admit it, who you kiddin', man?
Man, nobody's never done it like I did it (Ugh)
Chorus
C
But it's far from over
Am G
Yeah, that's right, I'm doin' me, I'm doin me

I'm livin' life right now, mayne

But it's far from over

Em G
There was a time when I was alone
C G
Nowhere to go and no place to call home
Em G
My only friend was the man in the moon
C G
And even sometimes he would go away to
Em G
Then one night as I closed my eyes
C G
I saw a shadow flying high
Em G
He came to me with the sweetest smile
C G
Told me he wanted to talk for a while
Em G
He said Peter Pan that's what they call me.
C G
I promise that you'll never be lonely.
Am D
And ever since that day

I am a lost boy from Neverland

Usually hangin' out with Peter Pan
Em G
And when we're bored we play in the woods
C G
Always on the run from Captain Hook
Em G C G
Run, run, lost boy they say to me
Em G C G
Away from all of reality
Em G
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
C G
And lost boys like me are free
Em G
Neverland is home to lost boys like me
C G
And lost boys like me are free
[Verse 2]
Em G
He sprinkled me in pixie dust and told me to believe
C G
Believe in him, and believe in me
Em G
Together we will fly away in a cloud of green
C G
To your beautiful destiny
Em G
As we soared above the town that never loved me
C G
I realized I finally had a family
Em G
Soon enough we reached Neverland
C G
Peacefully my feet hit the sand
Am D
And ever since that day
[Chorus]

I am a lost boy, from Neverland

[Verse] G
When the sun goes down on my side of town
That lonesome feelin' comes to my door
C G
An' the whole world turns... blue
G
There's a rundown bar across the railroad tracks
I got a table for two, way in the back
C G
Where I sit alone... and I think of losin' you
D G
I spend most every night beneath the light of a neon moon
[Chorus] C D
Now, if you lose your one and only
There's always room here for the lonely
To watch your broken dreams dance in and out of the beams
G
Of a neon moon.
[Verse] G
I think of two young lovers a-runnin' wild and free
I close my eyes and sometimes see
C G
You in the shadows of this smoke-filled room
G
No tellin' how many tears I've sat here and cried
Or how many lies that I've lied
C G
Tellin' my poor heart she'll come back someday
D G
Oh, but I'll be alright as long as there's light from a neon moon
[Chorus]
[Verse] G
The jukebox plays on drink by drink
And the words to ev'ry sad song seem to say what I think
C G
And this hurt inside of me, it ain't never gonna end
D G
Oh, but I'll be alright as long as there's light from a neon moon
[Chorus]

I've got the power
I've got the power
Like the crack of the whip, I Snap attack
Front to back, in this thing called rap
Dinging like a cymbal, rhyme devil on the heavenly level
Bang the bass, turn up the treble
Radical mind, day and night all the time
7-14, wise divine
Maniac brainiac, winning the game
I'm the lyrical Jesse James
Quality I possess and say I'm fresh
When my voice goes through the mesh
Of the microphone, that I am holding
Copy written lyrics, so they can't be stolen
If they all Snap, don't need the police
To try to save them, your voice don't see
So peace, stay off my back
Or I will attack and you don't want that
I've got the power
I've got the power
I've got the power
I've got the power
It's getting, it's getting, it's getting kinda hectic
It's getting, it's getting, it's getting kinda hectic

It's getting, it's getting, it's gettin kinda hectic
It's getting, it's getting, it's gettin kinda hectic

Devil Don't Wear Prada
Chorus: Am F7 | Am F7 | C7 B7 | Ab7 2X G7
The devil don't wear prada, she wears Dolce and Gabana
And she is twice as sexy on that second glance
Her touch is Euphoric, a mirage you can't ignore it
But you know you need to put her in the past
Verse: Am | Em | Am | Em | F7 | E7 (2nd time: E7 C#7#9)
She will seclude you in her chamber of love
She will reserve you from the dangers of love
From the cold, cold hearted world outside
But don't mistake this for a home
Soon you'll be left there all alone
and no one will even hear your cry
Chorus
Verse 2: Am | Em | Am | Em | F7 | E7 (2nd time: E7 C#7#9)
Materialistic type of , she wears her stilletos
She buys her Jordans just for kicks, on the week of release
She can't even tell you what minumum wage is
She thinks that money grows on trees, she gets whatever she wants
Even her T-shirts read Armani, or Louis Vuiton
But don't be fooled by the lies she flaunts
Chorus
Bridge: E7 | Am 3X D7 | E7 | Am .. hold F7
Move on, she's coming after you
And if you don't, she's gonna find you, right where you are
So move on, she's seeking out the worst
And she'll pull you in if you don't pull out first
Chorus

On a beautiful day

I dream of you amid the flowers
For a couple of hours

[Lupe Fiasco]
As I spy from behind my giant robot's eyes
I keep him happy 'cause I might fall out if he cries
Scared of heights so I might pass out if he flies
Keep him on autopilot 'cause I can't drive
Room enough for one I tell my homies they can't ride
Unless they sittin on the shoulders but that's way too high
Let's try not to step on the children
The news cameras filmin
This walkin project buildin
Now there's hoes sellin hoes like right around the toes
And the crackheads beg at about the lower leg
There's crooked police that's stationed at the knees
And they do drive-bys like up and down the thighs
And there's a car chase goin on at the waist
Keep a vest on my chest
I'm sittin in my room as I'm lookin out the face
Somethin to write about
I still got some damage from fightin the whitehouse, just a

Now come on everybody, let's make cocaine cool
We need a few more half naked women up in the pool
And hold this MAC-10 that's all covered in jewels
And can you please put your titties closer to the 22s?
And where's the champagne? We need champagne
Now look as hard as you can with this blunt in your hand
And now hold up your chain slow motion through the flames
Now cue the smoke machines and the simulated rain
But not too loud 'cause the baby's sleepin
I wonder if it knows what the world is keepin
Up both sleeves while he lay there dreamin
Me and my robot tip-toe 'round creepin
I had to turn my back on what got you paid
I couldn't see half the hood on me like Abu Ghraib
But I'd like to thank the streets that drove me crazy
And all the televisions out there that raised me, I was

Cause girl I've never been more sure (that baby, it's you)

Shorty, cool as a fan
On the new once again
But, still has fan from Peru to Japan
Listen baby, I don't wanna ruin your plan
If you got a man, try to lose him if you can
Cause your girls real wild through your hands up high
When they wanna come kick it wit a stand up guy
You don't really wanna let the chance go by
Because you ain't been seen wit a man so fly
Friend so fly i can go fly
Private, cause I handle mine
B.I. they call me candle guy, simply because I am on fire
I hate to have to cancel my vacation so you can't deny
I'm patient, but I ain't gonna try
You don't come, I ain't gonna die
Hold up, what you mean, you can't go why?
Me and you boyfriend we ain't no tie
You say you wanna kick it with an ace so high
Baby, you decide that I ain't your guy
Ain't gon lie ,Me in your space
But forget your face, I swear I will
Same mark, same bullet anywhere I chill
Just bring wit me a pair, I will

I can see us holding hands
Walking on the beach, our toes in the sand

Mixing up the medicine

Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off

Look out kid
It's somethin' you did

God knows when
But you're doin' it again
You better duck down the alley way
Lookin' for a new friend

In the big pen

Wants eleven dollar bills
You only got ten.

Plants in the bed but

Maggie says that many say
They must bust in early May
Orders from the DA

Walk on your tip toes
Don't try, 'No Doz'

Keep a clean nose
Watch the plain clothes

You don't need a weather man
To know which way the wind blows.

Get jailed, jump bail, Join the army, if you failed

Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a candle
Don't wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals

The pump don't work
'Cause the vandals took the handles.

By the (E) county line, the cop's were nippin' on my heels
(C) Pulled off the road, kicked it in 4-wheel
(D) Shut off the lights, tore through a corn field
(A7) What was I thinkin'
From the (E) other side, she was hollerin' "faster"
(C) Took a dirt road, had the radio blastin'
(D) Hit the honky tonk for a little close dancin'
(A7) What was I thinkin'
Oh, I (B) knew there'd be hell to pay
But, that crossed my mind a little too (E) late
Repeat Chorus
Solo- (E5) (F#) (B7) (F#) (C) (D) (E5) (E5)
When a (E) mountain of a man with a 'Born To Kill' tattoo
Tr(C)ied to cut in, I knocked out his front tooth
(D) Ran outside, hood-slidin' like Bo Duke
(A7) What was I thinkin'
(E) Finally got her home at half past 2 - late
Her (C) daddy, in a lawn chair, sittin' on the driveway
(D) Put it in park, and he started my way
(A7) What was I thinkin'
Oh...(G) what was I thinkin'
(C) What was I thinkin'
Then she (B5) gave a come-and-get-me grin
Like a bullet, we were gone a(B)gain
Repeat Chorus
(Ad lib and fade out...)

B E
In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep
E7 A Amaj7 B
From the mountains of faith To a river so deep
E F#m7/E E
I must be looking for something Something sacred I lost
E7 A. Amaj7 B
But the river is wide. And it's too hard to cross
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m B6
Even though I know the river is wide
Amaj7 G#m7
I walk down every evening and I stand on the shore
Amaj7 G#m
I try to cross to the opposite side
F# B B6 BmM7
So I can finally find out what I've been looking for
[Chorus]
B7 - E
In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep
E7 A Amaj7 B
Through the valley of fear To a river so deep
A E F#m7/E E
And I've been searching for something Taken out of my soul
E7 A Amaj7 B
Something I would never lose Something somebody stole
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m B6
I don't know why I go walking at night
Amaj7 G#m7
But now I'm tired and I don't want to walk anymore
Amaj7 G#m
I hope it doesn't take the rest of my life
F# B B6 BmM7
Until I find what it is that I've been looking for
[Chorus]
B7 - E
In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
E7 A
Through the jungle of doubt
B
To a river so deep
E F#m7/E E
I know I'm searching for something (Searching for some- thing)
F#m7/E E
Something so undefined (So Un-defi- ned)
E7 A
That it can only be seen

By the eyes of the blind

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep

Through the desert of truth

We all end in the ocean (end in the o- cean)

Panoramic view, Look I'll make it all manageable
Em
Pick and choose, Sit and lose, all you different crews
Em
Chicks and dudes, so who you think is really kickin' tunes?
Em
Picture you gettin' down in tha picture tube,
Em
Like you lit the fuse, you think it's fictional?

Em
Rhythm, you have it or you don't that's a fallacy
Em
I'm in them every sprouting tree, every child apiece
Em
Every cloud you see. you see with your eyes,

I see destruction and demise, corruption in the skies
Em
From this fuckin' enterprise, now I'm sucked into your lives
Em
Through Russel not his muscles but percussion he provides
Em
With me as their guide
Em
Y'all can see me now cuz you don't see with your eye
You perceive with your mind
Em
That's the inner
Em
So I'ma stick around with Russ and be a mentor
Em
Bust a few rhymes so mother fuckers remember
What the thought is I brought all this,
Em
so you can survive when law is lawless
Em
Feelings, sensations that you thought was dead
Em (stop music)
No squealing, remember that it's all in your head
[Coro]

Chorus: Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you
Say baby I love you
If you ain't runnin' game

Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you
Say baby I love you
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You actin' kinda shady
Ain't callin' me baby
Better say my name
Verse 1: Any other day
I would call and you would say
Baby how's your day
But today, it ain't the same
Every other word
Is "uh-huh" yeah "okay"
Could it be that you
Are at the crib with another lady
If you took it there
First of all, let me say
I am not the one
To sit around, and be played
So prove yourself to me
I am the girl that you claim
Why don't you say the thangs
That you said to me yesterday
Pre Chorus: I know you say that I am assuming things
Something's going down that's the way it seems
Shouldn't be the reason why you're acting strange
If nobody's holding you back from me
'Cause I know how you usually do
When you say everything to me times two
Why can't you just tell the truth
If somebody's there then tell me who
Chorus:
Verse 2: What is up with this
Tell the truth, who you with
How would you like it if
I came over with my clique
Don't try to change it now
See you gotta bounce
When two seconds ago
You said you just got in the house
It's hard to believe that you
Are at home, by yourself
When I just heard the voice
Heard the voice of someone else
Just this question why
Do you feel you gotta lie
Gettin' caught up in your game
When you can not say my name
Pre Chorus and Chorus 2X
