Ghetto Serenade
作詞:William Calhoun, George Jr Clinton, Bootsy Collins, Carlos Ward, Bernard Worrell
Back in the days when I was tryin' to come up in the rap game Livin' like a [unverified], bustlin' spare change Drivin' a bucket, livin' in a shack Tryin' to make the best out of what I had, usin' a pen and pad
There was this girlie that I wanted to get with Who never gave me no play, because I wasn't rollin' She said I was too ghetto and that a brother from the ghetto Couldn't give her nothin' but hard times and trouble
But bein' I was young and dumb And just thinkin' bout the putang, had me sprung I used to play myself late at night goin' over her house, drinkin 40s Standin' on the front porch singin' oldies
And even though her father used to run me away I used to creep around the side and hit the back gate Tappin' on her window, givin' her the ghetto serenade And it went this way
You've got somethin' that keeps my head in a spin You've got somethin' that makes me wanna give in You've got somethin' that turns my head all around You've got somethin' that takes me all down
I used to ask her all the time, 'Yo, why do you play me?' It shouldn't matter that I didn't drive a Mercedes She said that I was probably only good for makin' babies And my physical appearance makes me look crazy
She said that, 'You look like you bang, or maybe even slang And if you wanna be with me, you gotta rearrange' But I wasn't 'bout to get a flattop or go in a suit And come back in a new BMW
She said her parents wouldn't approve of the way that I looked, see And plus you got nothin' to give me You wanna get laid? You gotta keep me paid That's when she lost me, man, 'cause I ain't payin' for the ying-yang
And even though I'm feelin' bad I feel like this, I can't miss what I never had So I gave it a last shot and right before I walked away 更多更詳盡歌詞 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 I hit her with the ghetto serenade
You've got somethin' that keeps my head in a spin You've got somethin' that makes me wanna give in You've got somethin' that turns my head all around You've got somethin' that takes me all down
A few years later, now my dues are paid up I got a record out, now I'm rollin' in big bucks Flyin' all around the world, meetin' many girls Everywhere that I go and makin' rap videos
And signin' autographs the other day I looked up and guess who was comin' my way? The same old girl who never gave me no rhythm But this time standin' in the middle of five children
She done got fat, and now she's lookin' like the cookie monster to me Walkin' around with the saggy booty And runnin' that drag about how I done matured so much And why I haven't kept in touch?
I started laughin' in her face, 'cause to me it was funny Now she wanted me for my money So I turned my back to her and I walked away Leavin' her singin' the ghetto serenade And here's what she had to say
You've got somethin' that keeps my head in a spin You've got somethin' that makes me wanna give in You've got somethin' that turns my head all around You've got somethin' that takes me all down
Hey Dub, man, what's up, man? You done got these braids off your head Got rid of those khaki pants Man, you sure have matured, man
How about gettin' your telephone number? What's up with that, man? Just 'cause I wasn't givin' you no rhythm That wasn't my fault, man, lookin' so good, man
