Hook:
I'd like to welcome y'all to
Where the gangs wear blue
And all the thugs wear read
And the cops bang too, oh, oh!
I'd like to welcome y'all to
Where the little women turn to pretty women
Where you're lucky to be twenty still living
Forty sipping mixing gin and juice.
You see, my momma was a thug, granny was a plug
And my daddy stared used them drugs.
I used to get it cracking for a rock softer ...
Grabbing drinks from the... selling bad just because
I used to run the block trying to get me a bankroll
Used to tell a living life from a change, oh!
My black sisters just want to be a model
Baby, in black families momma's got to rose
When you coming from a far, far, far
You take the train to the DB side
Tear drops on the parking lot.
And only out of a box is in a real box
The only way to her heart is in the shoe box
I hope these... set me fly
To the big games mentioned in the sky.

Where all the gangs wear blue (wear blue)
And all the thugs wear read (shit)
And the cops bang too (oh, oh!)
I'd like to welcome y'all to (Crown Royal Blvd)
Where the little women turn to pretty women (women)
Where you're lucky to be twenty still living
Forty sipping mixing gin and juice.

Pa, pa, pa
