verse 1]



Early Sunday morning in the spring of 96

Chilling on the couch watching the bulls against the knicks

My honey marches in and ask if I think I'm slick

It seem she found my shirt with lipstick

I thought I could explain but then my story wouldn't stick

Incriminating pictures show me some other chicks

It happened once before and she was tired of the tricks

She ask me if I can spell the word evict



[chorus]



Why me lord situation looking kinda bad

Why me lord I lost the best girl I ever had

Why me lord I'm homeless and I'm feeling kinda sad

Why me why me why me why me

Why me lord how you member massa god so quick

Why me lord when trouble tek you pickney shirt a fit

Why me lord is just because you don't know when to quit

Why me why me why me why me



[verse 2]



Just the other day when I was rolling with my crew

Made a little flex around by flatbush avenue

Calling to some honeys and sipping on my brew

That's when I saw the boys in blue

Pulled us to the side why I don't even have a clue

Looking for a reason and they finally found a few

A case of ammunition and a loaded thirty two

I can't believe what I'm going through



[chorus]



Why me lord here I am I gotta face the time

Why me lord though the evidence ain't even mine

Why me lord I swear I ain't guilty of the crime

Why me why me why me why me

Why me lord how you member massa god so quick

Why me lord when trouble tek you pickney shirt a fit

Why me lord is just because you don't know when to quit

Why me why me why me why me



[bridge]



Take heed never take advantage of the thing you need

Never let yourself be over come by greed

Walk the straight and narrow and you shall succeed

Get you act up to speed

And try no matter what it takes to give a next man a blye

Everybody else deserve a piece a the pie

Honesty the best policy no sell no samfie

You no need fi wonder why



[chorus
