Ladies and gentlemen  flight 1 0 from LAX is now arriving into 
JFK International. 

[ODB talking] 
What? What? (...?...) about that money  nigga. 
How many  hey yo  how many niggas is really making money now  
now what I'm saying? 
This 98  I'ma tell y'all cats somethin. 
This is the year of do it  or don't. 
If you gon do it  you better roll on with this crew cat  
juggyyyyy!!!! 

[Mack 10] (ODB) 
People call me crazy, but that's alright with me (It's alright!) 
They ask me why I'm hustlin, (We hustlin!) I say for the money (Yeah!) 
I duck down with Buckshot, Hoo Bang with Wu-Tang (Oooooo!) 
Won't hesiate to slang, so money ain't a thang (Ahhhhh!) 
Called Buck and Dirty, asked em what they need 
They said send me two thangs and some LA weed 
So my belief is f*ck the beef, all money the same 
And when I get to New York, I'ma show you the whoop game 
I make a bitch stay down, 'cause I'm that type of guy 
Put the work on the Greyhound and fly to the NY 
Hit the east coast with a pocket fulla cheddar 
Tan khakis on with a thick red sweater (Oh yeah!) 
They see me with some hoes, couldn't be better timing 
'cause though a nigga g'd up, I got on big diamonds, so nigga what? 
(Tell it to em cat!) 

[Hook] [Mack 10] (ODB) 
People call me crazy, but that's alright with me 
They ask me why I'm hustlin, I say for the money 
(Yo, I am comin over, to your spot tonight 
I promise you my baby, that I'm gon do you right!) 

[Buckshot] (ODB) {Mack 10} 
Through the gusty wind, I roll with fifty men 
Ready to get nifty and shifty and low 
So what's the movements, yo? Let me know 
'cause when I come for motherfuckers, I'm comin for throats 
It was sad I bled, but the red in my eyes shed 
Light on the dark, I led the blind in sight 
Now I got all of them inside 
It's the reason why I do this, and I night ride 
(For the moneyyyyy!!!!!!) 
If you and a nigga outside, say the word 
And I'm a spruge with my flight team soarin like birds 
Missed it on the Friday with my nigga Cube 
But the bomb blew Saturday when Mack lit the fuse 
Who other than Buckshot come pick up the pieces 
And straighten niggas out like creases 
{Speak on it} Yeah nigga 
(It's for the moneyyyyyy!!!!!) 
Buckshot, ODB, Mack 10, back at it again 

[Hook] 

[Ol' Dirty Bastard] 
Hey yo, most of you know me, some of you don't 
When it comes to challengin, none of you won't 
Arrange this battle to improve your style 
It's a brother with a totally different profile 
Most of you play cold front in your face 
Hesitatin on the rhymes, shoulda been Memorex 
But, you forgot, you's an amateur 
Mystery worshipper, yo I prefer 
I mind you, tease you, who's the boss? 
Sucka amneisa, memory loss, welllll 
Hit this, just quiet as kept 
Mmmmm see's on the charts from the start had slept 
Leeeeet's take them, wake them 
You should be woke 
'cause you take MC'in for a practical joke, Hmmmmm 
I present myself to be a similar nightmare of an Amazing Story 

[Hook] 

[ODB talking] 
Yo, you ain't hearin nothing but a drop of the dime. 
Know what I'm saying? 
To all my dogs, I want to give a shout out. 
You got my nigga, Mack 10. 
You got my nigga, Buckshot shorty. 
And you got the one, dirt dog. 
Know what I'm saying? 
And we gon do it like sweat hogs, my nigga. 
This how we get down! 

[Mack 10 talking] 
People call me crazy, but that's alright with me 
They ask me why I'm hustlin, I say for the money 
Haha, Hoo Bangin records, pushin weight in 98. 
Cookin nothing but the bomb. 
You know what I'm sayin? 
'cause we got the Recipe, fo sho!
