Cause I'm so discombobulated being out the hood

I don't know if it's a bad or a good thang

Missin Cadillacs switches in the wood grain

Don't touch on my matress, it ain't cool

Quick to get ticked off

Every other day, take this witcha (witcha)

The politics stretched out, we all stressed out

Do your thang and I'ma do my thang

We up in the zoo, headed-quarter (??) to the West wang

Oh you servin up somethin? Well you gotta kick in

It's the politics to y'all politicians

Kicked in - shank stick in

Only God dump; inmates gets stuck

I'm smokin on a hump, hollin at her

A fool walked up, talking 'bout the phone

Phone check huh? I miss my pump

It ain't no thang even though he's holdin boulders

I'ma still squabble this fool from the shoulders

If I win or lose the respect that counts

Be the first take off (??) P.C. out

The guard so crooked (crooked)

Come equipped when the shank sticks



Repeat 1



[Nate Dogg]

Well I've arrived at my new home, cell three

I looked around and what did I see?

One of them clowns one of my enemies

Gotta stay down so I make me some weed

It's goin down in the mornin on me

Soon as they say "Hey line up," let's leave

Right now the nigga just as safe as can be

But when we hit the kitchen maaan sleep

Nate Dogg and I'm tight for all of y'all

When you wanna make a hit, give me a call

West coast representin for all my doggs

One love to my doggs behind the walls

Nate Dogg and I'm tight for all of y'all

Stand strong, stand tall, and never fall

West coast representin for all my doggs

One love to my doggs behind the walls

I'm the jaw tapper, I'ma be a G in here like Antonio Nappa

Doctor Gloria fix ya up completely

I just might stick myself (aahh) so she can feel on me

Watch out boy (boy!) It's comin fast (fast)

White lightning's 'bout to strike

It don't matter who up in here boy (boy!)

There's sixteen inmates just like him

Violent as a Viking; systematic, terrible, tragic

Tragic, drastic, spasmatic, casualties growin like cancer

I'm all outta breath like a nigga asthmatic

with asthma, here's the perfect answer

And also here's ya last chance to just

try to make it over the wall (the wall)

The inmates are so crooked (crooked)

Come equipped when the shank sticks



Repeat 1
