Lyrics:
all black
Left a baby at the door in a blanket all wrapped
Mr and Mrs. Dracul came to open the door
And surely they were surprised by what they saw
to me
Lord, I done told ya
Pretty little thing riding by in a champagne Corolla
Asked the boys on the corner
Did they know how many them things you
on the floor, girl, it's your f***in' song
Do your thang, don't be scared
'Cause you gon' get served, get mine and you gon' get yours
Papa think your ass lovely
I was walking the streets of San Francisco
The hour was just turning nine
When I chanced on a girl, tall and slender
On the corner of Kearny and Pine
of where dad and I land
We laugh and joke and give him hell
But he loves that little girl
And they get by
And they get by
We all get by
By the grace
the atmosphere
So girl, quit frontin' and get you're ass over here
And get yourself a cup of this Crown and Belvedere
I'm all off in the corner 100 honeys
Girl, don't turn your back on me
Is this what we came for, feel so ungrateful
Moved to Los Angeles now I've seen an angel
Thought we turned a corner got
raised by Luke, so go and raise the roof (raise the roof)
I stay clean like a fresh triple beam
And in '93, it was all a dream
Brass monkey, that ass
the girls we knew perpetuating backseat legends
Fours years worth of near misses too numerous for me to mention
Shootin' the bull in an old cowtown
Ivy naïve to the villain behind the mask whole lot of pot burns, mad weed
Planted in her mind she can't see got her on the corner to receive
John's
And I don't do well
With people in the world
Out here trying to control me
Unless you're my girl
I don't really see a reason
For you trying
time or space to love
If you cut corners, I’m a mile away
& I’ll be blinded by your stifling embrace, uh
You said
I caught you in my spiderweb
Your
(Bitches slime)
See the pain in these eyes
Death arrives how'd I survive (How did I)
No hope when medics arrive
Few corner stories to tell (Take a seat)
sitting on the wall like a kitchen shelf
Choppa in the corner same height as one of Santa's elf's
15 in the glick I don't need no assist
You gon' punch
the theory/
some have said death's next level and here we are /just
trying to be some regular boys, girls, jahs
he left me there on the corner
and I'll never
We live in a world
Where a man is judged by the color of his skin
We can't win
Not the content of his character
They scared of you
22 million black
till it's over
I was from e'sgogweni by the corner
Her apartment paid for by her father
Mansion e'Winchester
Did I mention,when mansions were mentioned
seems had broken his dreams
By stealing the girl of his fancy.
Her name was Magil and she called herself Lil
But everyone knew her as Nancy.
Now she
seems had broken his dreams
By stealing the girl of his fancy.
Her name was Magil and she called herself Lil
But everyone knew her as Nancy.
Now she
him by inches, he sprinted
Some of his boys on the corner was who your bullets entered
Two of 'em pull through, but one didn't, son's finished
You took
I wake up-wake up in the morning,
'Cause them boys come knocking in the morning,
Then I have me girl go flush in the toilet,
Them say did someone
crack
By seventeen
Eighteenth street where I played that
Nineteen - on the corner with
Twenty in they straps
Playing with my money like
Playing with my
Catch a glimpse at the cutie in the corner
She spun me round, flipped my frown now I adore her
Cause she's a dollar bill, I'm just a quarter
I'm
yeah
You're in every corner of my heart
My heart belongs to you
Whenever we stay up all night long
Talking about all the things we want
You and I know
