Man, you got me goin' crazy Baby I'm losin' my mind [Chorus: Butch Cassidy (Snoop Dogg)] (Butch Cassidy) Feels like I'm losin' control And I don't even know Girl you hurt me oh so bad 'cause I love you so, hey But it don't matter now I'm doin' better now Whatever you do, Bitch Will come back to you, Bitch Hey, hey Hey, hey Hey, hey Hey, hey (I was in love at times) (I was so hurt, she made me forget my rhymes) [Snoop Dogg (Butch Cassidy)] Now who would ever think that I wanted her home? Three kids and a wife, never be alone A dog in the front yard and that picket fence Havin' somethin' on the side? It didn't make sense (I'm a family man sportin' a wedding band) I heard them niggas on your pager didn't give a damn I gave you eighty percent of all my trust in you The other twenty was cool, 'cause we gone make it through (The homies said she got my mind blew in, blew in) I told that nigga like Chris Tucker, "Don't worry about what the f*ck I be doin'" We was makin' chemistry, but who is he? And how this nigga know the deal about you and me? (I fell to my knees and asked the girl "Why?") She looked at my eyes with no reply So I cried I was in love at times I was so hurt, she made me forget my rhymes [Chorus] [Snoop Dogg] I was in love at times They say game don't wait, ha Warren G? Well the game better wait for me I'm spendin' my time while I'm writin' these rhymes In the Hills for real, sippin' wines Girl, you's a dime Got me losin' my mind Well if lovin' you is a crime I'm down to do my time Lock me up and throw away the key I once told that "This was the way love was meant to be" I see you with me forever We can do things that you never, Thought you could've Up out the hood-uh Is where I took you Never overlooked you I can't believe that you shook to another spot And left me cold, now I'm hot I'm tryin' to find you, what am I to do? I gave you everything that you needed [Chorus] [Snoop Dogg] You know what girl? I was in love with you and you treated me like that, But you know what they say? What goes around comes around [Butch Cassidy] How could, how could, you do me wrong? You be messin' up my songs Now a nigga must move on Gave love, and you just, straight played on me Had a nigga sick for weeks Now I must begin my streak
