Title: Good Thing We're Rappin


Alright parents go head tuck the kids in PG time is over
This goes out to all the macks in the industry..
Huh alright roll the tape...
(..yo rest day ain't for hoes..)
It's a good thing that we're rappin
If it wasn't for the rappin we'd be mackin
It's a good thing that we're rappin
If it wasn't for the rappin we'd be mackin
It's a good thing that we're rappin
There was a time when they called me Smooth Eddie
Playing the hoes and shook the red card steady
It was Mike to those that knows
Matter of fact, Icy Mike cause he was cold on them hoes
We was east coast niggas headin west
I was rollin shotgun, coolin with my man fresh Wes
The royal blue Brogham was a drop top rag
You could tell we was pimps from the Las Vegas tags
Cause that's how we flipped it
Hit a lick, paid cash, said nothin, pimp shit
All of this was around spring eighty one
I was in the life and had a good three year run
Anyway, one friday on the side of the road in L.A.
My man Wes says hey, "I got a bitch in San Diego"
"Cool", I said, "I'll see ya in a coupla days
I'm gonna stay and play some L.A. hoes"
He said, "alright player yo, I'll see you soon"
Yeah that's how real players kick it see there ain't no rules
We roll from city to city, like kids playing hookie
Later that night I knock a bitch named Cookie
She says, "I love you and I want to make you rich"
I says, "oh yeah", I swear I worked the shit out this bitch
She was fine too, niggas couldn't tell me nothin
Had brains too, did more stealin than fucking
A real thoroughbred, played con like a pro
Man I'm tryin to tell you I had a money makin ho
But the Sunset track got stale, Cookie went to jail
Had to sling a little yale to make bail
She said, "I'm hot baby, I can't work in this town
The vice pick me up just as soon as you put me down"
I said, "shut the hell up ho
who asked you to run your mouth?"
She was right though
it was time to take a trip down south
And to this very day, when I think of how
I was livin back then I got to say that
It's a good thing that I'm rappin
If it wasn't for the rappin I'd be mackin
Good thing we got music
If not I'd be stuck with findin a way to get ahead
And then we got to use it
It's a good thing that I'm rappin
If it wasn't for the rappin I'd be mackin
Good thing we got music
If not I'd be stuck with findin a way to get ahead
And then we got to use it
They call it ho po when your leakin
So you know ho po is when yo po, cause you ain't got no ho
I was po but I wasn't po ho, cause I had one ho
But we was leakin cause the money was slow
Coppin blow means your goin up and down
I went from Cadillacs in Vegas to the back of GreyHound
San Diego off Broadway, there used to be a spot
I think E Street and 5th where all the players flocked
One night I was cooling outside
Saw my man Wes said, "ah shit yeah, it's gonna be live"
I was working a doublebreast silk leaf suit
With my five hundred dollar brown knee-high Ballys
Wes said, "it's pimpin how you wear em outside ya pants
And by the way my ham sandwichs in the alley"
Ham sandwich meant Brogham Cadillac
Quarter inch stripes, wheel kit on the back
It was snotty nose, that means the extra chrome
Plate on the grill, for sunroof we say it had the brains blown
I said, "this bitch is inside, you ready to attack?"
Wes looked at me said, "Mack..Mack..Mack..Mack..Mack"
My mans pimp stroll was cold gansta limpin
We stepped inside, both of us screamed, "it's pimpin!"
I was drinking cognac, Wes was drinkin gin
Wasn't there twenty minutes fore my people walked in
I said, "what's up Cookie? how'd you do?"
She said, "cool, reach under the bar, so I can give you these
feelings"
We always did it like that, case the vice squad was peepin
This time they wasn't, but this nigga who was leakin
Walked up and said, "yall gonna sell?"
Wes said, "nigga don't ya recognize the 'P' when you see it?"
He said, "oh, yo I didn't know, I thought she's doin business"
I said, "yeah, well it's true that she's a ho"
He said, "she with you, playa? cause I'd really like to buck her"
looked at her, said, "baby, I'm a raw mother fucker"
I said, "yeah, that might be true, but she don't need another nucka"
Ain't no choosin, jump off slick, this one here's my snucka"
He said, "whatchu mean by snucka?"
"It ain't too hard to figga
You call your nigga nucka, snucka means she-nigga
And figure this too, the bitch is down for my dirty drawers
Find another ho to go for yours"
He said, "but, I like her"
I said, "you must be a rookie"
Now figure this three, he cut me off and stepped to Cookie
He said, "how do you feel about this, my dear?"
I said, "nigga you don't check my bitch like I ain't standin here!
Now I told you that this woman sells pussy for me
You and her ain't the two, and we ain't the three
But most of all nigga, I ain't the one
Now back the fuck up off me son"
He said, "to buck another man's game is a shame"
I said, "leakin ass nigga, game recognize game
Now I told you that's my people and I gave you a chance"
Reached down and started pullin up the two from my pants
Shoulda capped his ass, instead
I look up and Wes done wrapped a pool stick round this nigga's head
So I put my shit away, we beat him down cowboy style
Cookie runs up and says, "baby you okay?"
I says, "yo, all this excitements got you dizzy
What cha watchin? bitch get busy!
Go back outside and finish gettin my money!"
The bartender laughed, said, "you pimp niggas is funny"
And I'll tell you once again
It blows my mind, when I think how I was living back then
Cause yo
It's a good thing that I'm rappin
If it wasn't for the rappin I'd be mackin
Good thing we got music
If not I'd be stuck with findin a way to get ahead
And then we got to use it
It's a good thing that I'm rappin
If it wasn't for the rappin I'd be mackin
Good thing we got music
If not I'd be stuck with findin a way to get ahead
And then we got to use it
And you don't stop
Humpty Hump in the house
And yo I go, I go
Doddie-doe-doe, doe-she-doe
Why must I pimp the ho?
Nothing but the mack in me
(..nothin..nothin but the mack in me..)
You know what I'm sayin

Yeah bitch and big dicks don't scare ya
Cause you been a ho too long
Know what I'm sayin? yeah
Pimpinest, pimpinest, pimpinest
Pimpinest, pimpinest, pimpinest, pimpinest
Pimps up and hoes down
Squares don't fuck around town
Know what I'm sayin?
Oh yeah, it's time to rest
Dress and mess
Count my monies while I read the funnies
Give my propas while I watch the soap operas
Cause it's pimpin, understand me?
Bitch what cha doin on your ass?
Watchin the cars pass
Pat your feet on the concrete
And go get my money woman!

ORAN 'JUISE' JONES

I saw you walking in the rain
You were holding hands and Ill never be the same.

Tossing and turning another sleepless night
The rain crashes against my window pane
Jumped into my car didnt drive too far
That moment I knew I would never be the same.

CHORUS

CHORUS

Now here you are begging to me
To give our love another try
Girl I love you and I always will
But darling right now Ive got to say goodbye
Cause

CHORUS

CHORUS

Hey hey baby how ya doin come on in here

Got some hot chocolate on the stove waiting for you
Listen first things first let me hang up the coat

Yeah how was your day today
Did you miss me

You did? Yeah? I missed you too
I missed you so much I followed you today

Thats right now close your mouth
Cause you cold busted

Now just sit down here, sit down here
Im so upset with you I dont know what to do

You know my first impulse was to run up on you
And do a Rambo

I was about to jam you and flat blast both of you
But I didnt wanna mess up this thirt-seven hundred dollar lynx coat
So instead I chilled -- Thats right chilled
I called up the bank and took out every dime.
Than I cancelled all your credit cards...
I stuck you up for every piece of jewelery I ever bought you!
Dont go lookin in that closet cause everything you came here with is
packed up and waiting for you in the guest room. What were you
thinking?
You dont mess with the Juice!
I gave you silk suits, blue diamonds and gucci handbags.
I gave you things you couldnt even pronounce!
But now I cant give you nothing but advice.
Cause youre still young, yeah, youre young.
And youre gonna find somebody like me one of these days . . .
Until then, you know what you gotta do?
You gotta get on outta here with that alley-cat-coat-wearing,
punch-bucket-shoe-wearing crumbcake I saw you with. Cause you
dismissed!
Thats right, Silly rabbit, tricks are made for kids, dont you know
that. You without me is like corn flakes without the milk! This is my
world. Youre just a squirrel trying to get a nut! Now get on outta
here. Scat!
Dont touch that coat...

DRU DOWN
PIMP OF THE YEAR

Mack playas ballas grindas.
Yeah I'm the real true pimp of the year.
Will ya feel me.
Ha ha pimp of the mutha' fuckin' year.
Give it up give it up a give it to me. A big mack capalized double D.
see. And it's on so I'm a get sick wit it a give me drank da bomb
and let me get wit it. Yeeyah cause I'm gonna be the biggest pimp of
the year goin' around doin' shit like this here. Cause a nigga is
strong, and way to long when it comes to my ding dong. But, bet, I get
a check when I sign on the dotted line, cause a now I know I gotta get
mine. It's really no thang to me, see, to be a real true P.I.M.P.
Cause I had me a hoe or two or mo' way back in eighty fuckin' fo'.
That's when I was a teen. But my dick was still big to make a bitch
bleed, see. And of coarse I'm slappin' hoes, smackin' hoes, up and
down tha fuckin' avenues. And ever I do that, I dig a deep in the
pocket for tha fat gat. Feel me. I'm so god damn bad, that I had to
kick off in a hoe's ass, cause the girl tried to do me, ride with her
man in the mustang pony. And I know it'd catch up with her. Next day
in the paper, yeah the nigga raped her. But I'm not trippin'. Bitches
like you wanna keep on slippin'. So I had to move on, to the next
young bitch that had it goin' on. Uh, and I'm not here to pump no
fear, I'm just the mack playa' pimp of the year, bitch.
Pimp, pimp on...
You got all the ladies.
Pimp, pimp on...
You got all the ladies.
First thang first on the second verse. I learned a hell of a lot, ah
from the get down start. So I had my hoes hoin'. Had every tramp
thinkin' I was the (?) goin'. Cause all the game I spit is good shit,
and the shit that I spit made me rich. Cause I was all about money. If
the girl says she down, well bees come and get the honey. Cause I'm
givin' it up quick. Take a hit, take a lick at them pink lips. Uh, and
a bet is better than grey, not knowin' that I bought this broad out of
state. And I met her in (?). Lookin' just like the actress singer
Whitney. But I knew she was a fake one, but to me young bro' it didn't
really make me none. I just walked up to her. I said my name's Dru
Down and I'll Slick Rick the ruler. And from the get go, I'm just a
pimp, hoe, ya comin' with me, a to the east side O. And then she said
okay, I'm on my way, let me pack my bags before today. Yeeyah, then I
said get with it and don't be a bitch and try to split. Uh. She was
right up under my wing ,at the airport at five fifteen. She said "Who
are you and why are ya here?", I said I'm Dru Down and pimp of the
year.
Pimp, pimp on...
You got all the ladies.
Pimp, pimp on...
You got all the ladies.
I've got a thang for makin' hoes. Every woman than I touch bitch turns
into gold. And I don't go for talk back, have respect when ya speakin'
to a pimp fuck that. Deduct up from tha pay check, matta fact get yo
ass in the back of the Cadillac, so I can ride and check mate. Like
rule number eight I keep a bitch in a plate. And no I don't play
around, fuck around, a when it comes to my money nigga. And when it
comes to gettin' a bitch sprung, I give her Henesee, a with tha one on
one. So she can get so high, real high, and that she that knows I'm
that type a guy. Cause I'm a kick somethin' just for the hoes, and for
myself I keep indo. And when a hoe finds out I'm real, yes I am, mack
playa pimp of tha year.
Pimp, pimp on...
You got all the ladies.
Pimp, pimp on...
You got all the ladies.
Pimp, pimp on...
You got all the ladies.
Pimp, pimp on...
You got all the ladies.
