Got your money
Ohh baby
I dedicate this to all the pretty girls
All the pretty girls

All the pretty girls, in the world
And the ugly girls too
'Cause to me your pretty anyways baby

You give me your number, I call you up
You act like you're pussy don't interrupt
I don't have no problem with you fucking me
But I have a little problem wit you not fucking me

Baby you know ima take care of you
'Cause you say you got my baby, and I know it ain't true
Is it a good thing? no its bad bitch
For good or worse, makes you switch

So I walk on over with my crystal
Bitches, niggaz put away your pistols
Dirty won't be having it in this house
'Cause bitch I'll cripple your style

Now that you heard my calm voice
You couldn't get another nigga, hoochie won't get moist
If you wana look good and not be bummy, girl you better give me that money
Aoow...

[Hook: x2]
Hey, dirty, baby I got your money
Don't your worry, I said hey.
Baby I got your money

Yo! so I glanced at the girls, girls glanced at me
I whispered in their ear, wana be with me?
You wana look pretty though, in my video
Ol' dirty on the hat and I let you all know

Just dance! if you caught up in the holy ghost trance
If you stop! ima put the killer ants in your pants
I'm the o-d-be	 as you can see
Every eye, don't you be watching me

I don't want no problems cause I put you down
In the ground where you can not be found
I'm just dirt dog trying to make sum bunny
So give me my streaks and give me my honey

Recognize I'm a fool and ya luuuuuuuuuuv me!
None of you nmph better look at me funny
Nmph you know my name now give me my money!

[Hook: x2]

Dirty: sing it, sing it girls! (during hook)

Dirty: that's how I like giiiiiiiirlllll

Bitches put your ass out let me hold it tight
You looking at my wrist saying "its so nice"

The price bitch is diamonds shining disco light
You better help me solve this problem
Or I'm a get this money and rob them
Lucky dig when I won the lotto

Ran up on my car for carrying (ryllos?)
You can call me dirty, and then lift up your skirt
And you want some of this dirty, god made dirt and dirt bust yo ass
Stop annoying me, yeah! I play my music loud

It takes the bastard ol' dirty, to move the crowd
They say he had his dick in his mouth
Eddie murphy told me that back in the house
But give me my money!
