Keiner hat mich gewarnt 
was am Ende passiert 
keiner hat mir gesagt 
dass ich mich so verlier 
niemand hat mich gewarnt 
was die mit mir macht 
dass es so weh tut 
hab ich nie gedacht 
alle haben gesagt 
ohne sie geht das nicht 
also hab ich gehofft, das wär auch gut für mich 
dann standest du vor mir 
und dann hab ichs probiert 
viel zu viel riskiert 

warum tue ich mir das an 
heul ich Nächte lang 
na vielen Dank 
scheiß Liebe 
warum hab ich das versucht 
bin ich jetzt verflucht 
ich hab genug 
scheiß Liebe 
warum hab ich dir vertraut 
jedes Wort geglaubt 
du hasts versaut 
scheiß Liebe 
ich habe mich entschieden 
ich hasse, dich zu lieben 
scheiß Liebe 

jetzt ist es vorbei 
du bist wieder weg 
alles am Arsch 
ich fühl mich wie Dreck 
der Anfang ist schön 
doch das war es nicht wert 
was doch so weh tut (?), ist immer verkehrt 
hätt ich die Wahl 
dann will ich lieber zurück 
in die zeit ohne dich 
in die zeit voller glück 
es ist zu spät 
denn ich hab es probiert 
viel zu viel riskiert 

warum tue ich mir das an 
heul ich Nächte lang 
na vielen Dank 
scheiß Liebe 
warum hab ich es versucht 
bin ich jetzt verflucht 
ich hab genug 
scheiß Liebe 
warum hab ich dir vertraut 
jedes Wort geglaubt 
du hasts versaut 
scheiß Liebe 
ich habe mich entschieden 
ich hasse, dich zu lieben 
scheiß Liebe 

ich hasse es zu lieben 
ich hasse die Lügen 
ich will nicht mehr vergeben 
will das nur überleben 
kein Himmelreich erwerben 
und danach langsam sterben 
das ist es nicht wert 
ich will das nich mehr 

warum tue ich mir das an 
heul ich Nächte lang 
na vielen Dank 
scheiß Liebe 
warum hab ich es versucht 
bin ich jetzt verflucht 
ich hab genug 
scheiß Liebe 
warum hab ich dir vertraut 
jedes Wort geglaubt 
du hasts versaut 
scheiß Liebe 
ich habe mich entschieden 
ich hasse, dich zu lieben 
scheiß Liebe 

warum tust du mir das an 
scheiß liebe 
warum heul ich Nächte lang 
scheiß Liebe 
warum hab ich dir vertraut 
scheiß Liebe 
ich habe mich entschieden 
ich hasse dich 
scheiß Liebe

Ich fühl mich verloren - allein 
Bitte halt mich ganz fest – ich bin 
so schwach und so klein 
Komm bleib nah bei mir 
Ich brauch dich so sehr, weil ich 
mich im Dunkeln verlier 
Komm mir nicht zu nah 
Mir geht's wieder gut, ich komme 
alleine schon klar 
Ich bin stark – du wirst sehen 
Bitte lass mich jetzt los,ich weiß 
ich bin schwer zu verstehen 
Bitte geh, bleib bei mir 
Bin ganz einfach kompliziert 

Ich bin Mädchen, ich bin Frau. 
Manchmal Engel, manchmal 
Sau. Ich bin heiß, ich bin eiskalt, 
Manchmal jung und 
manchmal alt. Ich bin Mädchen ich 
bin Frau. Manchmal 
dumm und manchmal schlau. Ich bin 
sauer ich bin süß, 
manchmal nett und manchmal fies. 

Willst du alles oder nichts? 
So bin ich 
Willst du alles oder nichts? 
Ich bin ich 
Ich weiß nicht was Du morgen 
kriegst 
Ob ich nerv wie ich bin, oder ganz 
zart und verliebt 
Bin mal hart, mal ganz weich 
Du kennst mich genau, will alles 
sofort oder gleich 
Der Himmel für dich 
Und manchmal die Hölle, ob ich das 
will oder nicht 
Was ist schon normal? 
Ich bin wie ich bin, aber immer für 
dich da 
bitte geh, bleib bei mir 
bin ganz einfach kompliziert. 

Ich bin Mädchen, ich bin Frau. 
Manchmal Engel, manchmal 
Sau. Ich bin heiß, ich bin eiskalt, 
Manchmal jung und 
manchmal alt. Ich bin Mädchen ich 
bin Frau. Manchmal 
dumm und manchmal schlau. Ich bin 
sauer ich bin süß, 
manchmal nett und manchmal fies. 

Willst Du alles oder nichts? 
So bin ich. 
Willst Du alles oder nichts? 
Ich bin ich. 
Bin mal böse, bin mal lieb, fliege 
hoch und falle tief. 
Bin mal unfair, mal gerecht, 
manchmal gut und manchmal 
schlecht. 

Ich bin Mädchen, ich bin Frau. 
Manchmal Engel, manchmal 
Sau. Ich bin heiß, ich bin eiskalt, 
Manchmal jung und 
manchmal alt. Ich bin Mädchen ich

Willst Du alles oder nichts?

Wer hat das Recht zu richten 
was gut ist oder nicht? 
Wer hat mir denn zu sagen 
was richtig ist für mich? 
Was soll ich tun? 
Ich dreh noch durch! 
Mein Herz zeigt mir den Weg! 
Und das will nur zu dir zurück 
auch wenn keiner das versteht!

Alles gegen mich 
und alles gegen dich ist verschworen (ist verschworen) 
Alle sagen, alles ist für immer für uns beide verloren 
für immer verloren

Wir stehen Hand in Hand (Hand in Hand) 
mit dem Rücken an der Wand. 
Wir stehen Hand in Hand (Hand in Hand) 
Unser Traum ist abgebrannt! 
Wir stehen Hand in Hand (Hand in Hand) 
Mit dem Rücken an der Wand. 
Wir stehen Hand in Hand (Hand in Hand) 
zu zweit allein im Niemandsland.

Ich hab fast aufgegeben 
Jeder Tag war eine Schlacht. 
Habe keine Nacht geschlafen. 
Über uns beide nachgedacht. 
Was ist passiert? 
Meine Welt zerbricht. 
Sie sagen mir, sei stark. 
Doch wie's mir geht 
interessiert die nicht. 
Keiner außer dir 
ist für mich da.

Alles gegen mich 
und alles gegen dich ist verschworen (ist verschworen) 
Alle sagen, alles ist für immer für uns beide verloren 
für immer verloren

Wir stehen Hand in Hand (Hand in Hand) 
mit dem Rücken an der Wand. 
Wir stehen Hand in Hand (Hand in Hand) 
Unser Traum ist abgebrannt! 
Wir stehen Hand in Hand (Hand in Hand) 
Mit dem Rücken an der Wand. 
Wir stehen Hand in Hand (Hand in Hand) 
zu zweit allein im Niemandsland.

Du musst ihn schnell vergessen, 
ja du darfst ihn nicht vermissen! 
Dieser Albtraum geht vorbei 
sei doch froh, jetzt bist du frei! 
Vorbei, er hats verdient, 
sag mal hängst du noch an ihm? 
Du bist total verrückt, 
schau nach vorne, nicht zurück!

[Chorus:]

You abandoned me
Love don't live here anymore
Just a vacancy
Love don't live here anymore

When you lived inside of me
There was nothing I could conceive
That you wouldn't do for me
Trouble seemed so far away
You changed that right away, baby

[chorus]

Love don't live here anymore
Just emptiness and memories
Of what we had before
You went away
Found another place to stay, another home

[chorus]

In the windmills of my eyes
Everyone can see the loneliness inside me
Why'd ya have to go away
Don't you know I miss you so and need your love

[chorus]

You've got style, that's what all the girls say
Satin sheets and luxuries so fine
All your suits are custom made in London
But I've got something that you'll really like

[Chorus:]

Gonna dress you up in my love
All over, all over
Gonna dress you up in my love
All over your body

Feel the silky touch of my caresses
They will keep you looking so brand new
Let me cover you with velvet kisses
I'll create a look that's made for you

[chorus]

Gonna dress you up in my love, in my love
All over your body, all over your body
In my love
All over, all over
From your head down to your toes

Shoo bee doo bee doo ooh la la
When I look in your eyes
Baby here's what I see
I see so much confusion
And it's killing me

When I look in your eyes
Baby here's what I see
I see so much confusion
And it's killing me

Well I can't take it anymore, baby
Why don't you dry your eyes, try and realize
Love can open any door, and maybe
If you trust in me, I can make you see

[Chorus:]

Shoo bee doo bee doo ooh la la, come to me baby
Shoo bee doo bee doo ooh la la, don't say maybe
Shoo bee doo bee doo ooh la la, come to me baby
Shoo bee doo bee doo ooh la la

I can see you've been hurt before
But don't compare them to me
'Cause I can give so much more
You know you're all I see

Well I can make it on my own, baby
But I'd rather share all the love that's there
I don't want to be alone, and maybe
You will see the light, baby spend the night

[chorus]

Shoo bee doo bee doo
Shoo bee doo bee doo, baby

Come to me baby
Pretty darling, don't say maybe

He's a pretender, he knows just what to say
He's a pretender, yeah you meet him every day
He's a pretender, that fish that got away
He's a pretender, why'd I fall in love

It was so strange the way he held my hand
I wanted more than just a one night stand
He had a way of making me believe
That he was mine and that he'd never leave

[Chorus:]

I know that I should take my friend's advice
'Cause if it happened once, you know it happens twice
If there's a chance then I know I've got to try
I'll make him dance with me, I'll make him tell me why
He's a pretender
He's a pretender

[Intermediate:]

I'm not afraid to fall a hundred times
And I'll believe in all your silly lies
I'd like to think that I could change your mind
Don't say that I am blind, I know all about your kind

He's a pretender, yeah you meet him every day
He's a pretender, that fish that got away
He's a pretender, why'd I fall in love

I like the way he moved across the floor
And when he danced with me I knew he wanted more
But in the dark things happened much too fast
I should've stopped him then, I knew it wouldn't last

[chorus]
[intermediate]

He's a pretender, yeah you meet him every day
He's a pretender, that fish that got away
He's a pretender, why'd I fall in love

She's reached the top and she won't stop 
Yes, she made it finally made it 
The world's her stage 
It's what she wants the number one 
Rock and roll heaven 
24/7 
She ain't got no questions 
So scared of the answers 

Awake at night when the emptiness comes 
What ever happened to the child she was, it's dead and gone 

Her lonely tears are falling in the rain 
Her lonely tears, and they won't see her pain 
Her tears are falling in the dead of night 
She just wants to get out of this so-called life 
Her lonely tears are falling in the rain 
Her lonely tears will be lost again 
Her tears are falling cause she's living the life 
There's a side of the story she's supposed to hide 

She's all the rage in a golden cage 
Keep on smiling just keep on smiling 
The show goes on 
The perfect doll she's owned by all 
What happened to heaven 
24/7 
No one knows how she feels trapped inside this dream 

Awake at night when the emptiness comes 
What ever happened to the child she was, it's dead and gone 

Her lonely tears are falling in the rain 
Her lonely tears, and they won't see her pain 
Her tears are falling in the dead of night 
She just wants to get out of this so-called life 
Her lonely tears are falling in the rain 
Her lonely tears will be lost again 
Her tears are falling cause she's living the life 
There's a side of the story she's supposed to hide 

All the rage 
In a golden cage 
Keep on smiling 
Just keep on smiling

So this is the girl you chose over me. 
Say was it worth it? 
You two look oh so sweet. 
I'm over you and she's cute indeed 
And yes, I can see why you picked her over me 
But the way you look at me behind her back 
I can't believe you do something like that 
Do you wish you had back 
What you once had? 
You don't know 
What you got until it's gone bad 

[Refrain:]
Hot! No, she's not 
No, she ain't got what I got 
No, she ain't hot 
That girl ain't hot and you know she's not 
She ain't got what I got 
No, she ain't got 

What do you want from me when you have her? 
The perfect match 
You and your dreamgirl 
Say are you thinkin' of me while makin love to her? 
I thought she's all that you need or is something missing there 

[Refrain (x3):]
Hot! No, she's not 
No she ain't got what I got 
No she ain't hot 
That girl ain't hot and you know she's not 
She ain't got what I got 
No, she ain't got

(feat. Ghostface Killah)



Take me home
Take me home

Baby I know you're wondering
Why I won't go over to your place
Cause I'm not to sure about how you feel
So I'd rather go at my own pace
And I know and you know that if we get together
Emotions will go to work
And I may do something I might regret the next day
And end up hurt
Oh I don't know...

That's the way that I feel
I'm so afraid of a one night deal
I wonder if I take you home would you still be in love baby
Because I need you tonight
I wonder if I take you home would you still be in love baby
Because I need you tonight

Your love is... no good
Take me home

Lately you've been expressing to me
Just how much you want to make love
I want it just as much as you do
But will you still keep in touch
You say I'm teasing but ought to have a reason
Don't let your feelings fade
Cause you will have me and sooner than you know it
If you could only wait
Oh I don't know...

That's the way I feel
I'm so afraid of a one night deal
I wonder if I take you home will you still be in love baby
Because I need you tonight
I wonder if I take you home will you still be in love baby
Because I need you tonight

[Ghostface Killah RAP:]
Boo you stop that
Let me smash that
You know the kid defeinetly gunna call back
In fact I might not leave your crib
Make music on your body with my mouth like tha biz
So stop teasing me and start pleasin me
Cause we could both share a crib and start switching keys
I anit tryin to just sit in the crib but if this is true love then it can last for a minute
Let's be oust we can practice makin babies
I said practice baby don't go start gettin crazy
We got a lot of love makin to do
And I promise in the morning I still be loving you

Tired of the games been there done that
Lookin' for the real thing if you got that
Must be commited if you in this need an investmeant before I give you the business

I Know your ready
And it's hard to resist you really do turn me on
I anit ready to give it up for you just to leave me in the morning

I wonder if I take you home will you still be in love baby
Because I need you tonight
I wonder if I take you home will you still be in love baby
Because I need you tonight

Your love is...
No Good!

Take me home

How deep is your love
Dream the summer rainbow
How deep is your love
How deep is your

My world is falling
Without you
But you don`t care
About anything beside you
I've been calling
Your number forever
But the silence was always
An answer

How deep is your love
Dream the summer rainbow
How deep is your love
Spread the way inside
How deep is your

My love is fading without you
It's a call here, I love to be beside you
I've been calling
Your number forever
But the silence was always
An answer

How deep is your love
Dream the summer rainbow
How deep is your love
Spread the way inside
How deep is your

Dream the summer rainbow
Spread the way inside

How deep is your love
Dream the summer rainbow
How deep is your love
Spread the way inside
How deep is your

Because of you I`m flying higher
You give me love, you set on fire
You keep me warm when you call my name
That`s my name, that`s my name, that`s my name

(And you are the one that lights the fire
I am the one who takes you higher
I lose my voice when you say my name
That`s my name, that`s my name, that`s my name)

Strong enough to smell through the jar wit the top on
Cop and be gone... If you come to the block drawn
I'll hit you with the glock till ev'ry one of the shots gone
He thought he was a thug he was all on his pop join'
Till he got popped now he all on his rock join'
I left him all on the block wit his top gone
Law called his mom and pop they all on they shock join'
I was just tryna make some bread for my family
And ev'rybody got somebody dead in they family
and ev'rybody got some crackheads in they family
So it's no room to hate cause i kno you relate... My shit

[HOOK]

I'ma blow like propaine cause the flow flames
It'll have you look like the cooked version of cocaine
I spit crack homie... neva been wak homie
I'm back homie... And I hold weight like I'm fat Tony
Like a Soprano I stay with the ammo
Push keys and make music but dont play the piano
You could get blam! yo... I'm nice wit my hands doe
You'll be looking like Rocky if you play like you Rambo
I'm looking type Rocky when I hop out the Land Vo
Bezel on the band whoa... rock on the hand glow
It's all for the fans doe
Thanks for the sup-port
my 16s like the nicotine in a newport
I'm like Too $hort... Pimpin these hoes
I'm the best at inventin the flow since Hove
What these other niggaz spittin is trash
But it's like hittin a glass when you listen to Cass... My shit

[HOOK]

I still be fucking it all up
Gettin it, mixin it cuttin, it all up
I make hella cake and I'm addin it all up
And I ain't sellin weight, man I'm baggin it all up
My youngn's on the block they be knockin it all off
Who you think the feins be coppin it all off
My block got hard but we coppin it all soft
If its snakes in the grass we choppin it all off
If you play wit my cash I'm poppin at all ya
Wit my face in a mask I'm choppin at all ya
But due to the fact I be rappin and all that
I be actin and all that I ain't clappin at y'all cats
But before I did music and movies and all that
I was moving in all black wit the toolies and all that
But now I dont got time cause I'm eatin and all that
I'm too decent for all that to be beefin wit y'all cats... You on

[HOOK]

CRACK!!!!, CRACK!!!!, CRACK!!!!
ITS CALLED CRACK!!!!!!!!
I SAID CRACK!!!!
CRACK!!!!, CRACK!!!!, CRACK!!!!, CRACK!!!!!!

[Intro]
I still move work, from the A.M. to the P.M.
Niggas got beef, I'm gonna spray 'em when I see 'em [2X]

[Cassidy]
I pump on the street from the A.M. to the P.M.
Nigga want beef, I'm gonna spray 'em when I see 'em
Lay 'em when I see 'em, AK 'em when I see 'em
Hop out the Bronco, I'll O.J. 'em when I see 'em
Cut a bone out his skin, fish fo-lay 'em when I see 'em
And wire is real, Kanye 'em when I see 'em
On their job, so I'll pay 'em when I see 'em
Turn boys to men I'll wine Yayo when I see 'em
'Cause I'll be on the grid from the P.M. to the A.M.
Paint pictures with my rhymes, you can see 'em when I say 'em
My songs like movies you can see 'em when you play them
If a nigga want beef, when I see 'em I'm gonna spray 'em
For six g's I could get your wip swiss cheesed
I'm like a red nose pit, you a mixed bread
Bitch please all 'em dudes in your crew ass
I'll get you strangled with the strings on your doo-rag

[Chorus: repeat 2X]
I still move work from the A.M. to the P.M.
Niggas got beef, I'm gonna spray 'em when I see 'em
I still move work from the A.M. to the P.M.
Niggas got beef, I'm gonna spray 'em when I see 'em

[Cassidy]
I'm gonna let you talk all stupid, till you get harked all stupid
Sparked out stupid, outlined in chalk all stupid
Dog I bite I don't bark all stupid, it is what it is
I'm in the coupe room dropped all stupid
Fitted hat cocked all stupid, gettin' top off stupid
My clientele cop all stupid
We excels on the block all stupid, it is what it is
It's a fact that I rap all stupid
Get your wig pushed back all stupid
We strapped all stupid, I'll get you clapped all stupid
Don't let the pills and the yack make you act all stupid
Yeah I do my thing all stupid, let my chain bling all stupid
My ring all stupid and my earring all stupid
I got them things and I swing all stupid

[Chorus]

[Cassidy]
Yo, with my flow you all amazed and astonished
I've been hot since I got my first Sega with Sonic
Back in the days when Shawn Kemp played for the sonics
I rocked the huge jeans and I played the atonics
You know I blow haze, I'll be blazing the chronic
It got my mind scrambled the and egg and an omelette
I talk to God every day, and he made me a promise
Me and T like, Malcolm and Alasia mahomie
Me and Swizz like Martin and Jessy
But the fact that I can get assassinated, is starting to stress me
I ain't tryna let the police department arrest me
But I still keep the steel tucked under the fresh tee
And I ain't just raping for my health
So before you diss me, you be better off laughing at yourself
Cause I ain't tryna battle on the mic
I have them goons hop out on you like they did Harrell at the light

[Chorus]

(feat. Nas, Quan)



Yea, hehe. Don Quan
A vision of God's Son Nas. That nigga Cass rules. Whattup baby

[Chorus: Quan]
Y'all niggaz is crazy. (To think) Y'all niggaz can't fade me
(Trick these) From the bottom to the top, from the booth to the block
Anyway I got to get it, I'm givin it all I got
Y'all haters can't hold me. (No Way) And y'all don't want to zone me
(Want it your way) So when I get, I'm gon' get it, in my life how I live it
and whips I be whippin, smokin on the exquisite

[Nas]
In the crib, two bricks of coke, liquor and dope
Pretty Hawaian bitches who eat choch and deep throat
Same niggaz that get down, remember them
California style, yeah I went back again
But much wiser, 'cause these guys are
Leave you up shits creek and won't lose sleep
So while we pack the heat, I got the heckler and koch
My man got the dot, five-oh block
It's like the movies shots as niggaz watch
But the American version
East coast, west coast as we connect these curtains
'Cause we ain't scared to buck, step on the Timbs and Chuck's
Is gonna happen, gun clappin, remember that
Now we on the soothern part of the map
Houston, party of the year, everybody there
Texas, no guestlist, only real players allowed
Me and my dudes make out rounds *Yall must be crazy*

[Chorus: Quan]

[Quan]
VA game spittin, platinum grill grinnin
Chrome rims spinnin, with wood grain glistenin
Any amount we sippin, passion for thugs livin
Free, fresh and out of prison
Flexin that new edition
Good grain gettin, shit and lovin the feelin
Bobby Womack singin, Marisa Rings gleaming
Hat cocked duce, puffin the quarter loosely
Poppin the bottle and tippin fifth of that to goosey
Shinnin for Swill and Halle, smokin for Lil' Shawney
Still reppin Bad Newz, and all my soldiers for me
Enjoy some better days, dispute burdens I carry
See cousin hookin money, for God momentary
Floss every chance I get, spread love freely
Still spittin gangsta shit, 'cause the streets need me
Still got that mack with me, for niggaz actin silly
still pimpin gangsta pretty, reppin in every city

[Chorus: Quan]

[Cassidy]
Yeah, I pray every day for a better life
I think it's gon' get better but it's like I'm never right
Make about it Christ, I'm on both of my knees
There's no hope, that why I'm smokin the trees
Damn, all for the chees, I lost both of my mans
That's why this toast is in the both of my hands
Damn, and I'll sell coke and birds 'fore I go to work
I go to the Range more than I go to church
My whole mentality twisted, but this reality isn't it
I ain't tryin to be fatality listed
And yo reverend, gettin dough is like goin to heaven
And goin to jail, like goin to hell
But before I go in the grave, I'll go in the cell
Just send my son mo' dough in the mail
Oh well, but I got god on my side so I'm beatin the case
This life crazy but I'm keepin the faith

This for the grown and sexy
This for the grown and sexy (grown and sexy)
This for the grown and sexy
This for the grown and sexy

[Verse 1]
If you down with me then I'm down with you

And if you ride wit me I ride wit chu 
And if you stick by my side I'll provide for you 
And if you there for me I'll be there for you 
Through the laughter and tears I'll care for you

Cassidy
Huh
This one of my joints for the ladies man

[Hook - Cassidy (Woman)]
Lift up ya shirt, let me see ya bellybutton girl
You got a belly ring, show ya bellybutton girl
(I'm not impressed by the money and the bling
Show me respect and then I'll show you my belly ring)
Lift up ya shirt, let me see ya bellybutton girl
You got a belly ring, show ya bellybutton girl
(Boy you my type and I like to do my thing
Treat me right, I'll show you what's under my belly ring)

[Verse 1]
Ain't nothing funny bout this money I be touching girl
I get the cheese, if you need it, then it's nothing girl
You might not know me, but I know if we was fucking girl
You would get blazed like the haze I be puffing girl
Kissing and hugging girl, licking and sucking girl
Ya body is the truth and you cute as a button girl
And you know I sold rock and I be hustlin girl
The pot I got on my stove top is not stuffing girl
You might not think that I'm the one to put ya trust in girl
But I won't break ya heart for nothing, I ain't bluffing girl
I think you got a crush on me, I see you blushing girl
I got you tempted cause I'm smooth as David Ruffin girl

[Hook]

[Verse 2]
I'm the kid from the telly with R. Kelly man
And I'm a ass, I'm a titty, I'm a belly man
I play them low like when I'm sittin on Pirelli's man
I'm blowing up so they be blowing up my celly man
Doing they gully dance, showing they belly man
It can't be jam because they shake it like it's jelly man
And it's some girls that probably never even wanted one
Till they heard the song and then they went and got they stomach done
Ya belly ring on bling, let ya belly floss
Just go bezerk, lift up ya shirt, show ya belly off
It's eye candy for the guys and it's fly mami
And you might like it if you try, don't be shy mami

[Hook]

[Verse 3 (Woman)]
And I know it some women who don't have a belly ring
It's okay, ay, ay (okay, ay, ay)
Cause you can go to the store and get yourself a belly ring
Today, ay, ay (Today, ay, ay)
On the radio, the TV, even the press
Women get their bellybuttons pierced, even they breasts
You supposed to cloth yourself, not expose yourself
But when this song come on, they can't control theyself
They be doing they thizzle y'all, making it wiggle y'all
I got 'em shaking and bouncing it like the dribble y'all
You know the izzle y'all, I'm off the hizzle y'all
For shizzle my nizzle, I love my nigga Swizzle y'all
Cause he the cat that make the tracks, I'm the cat that's rapping
I'm back in action, and I'm bout to get it crack-a-lacking
I'm that boy, you can be that bitch
So if you got ya belly pierced, let me see that sis, just

[Hook 2x]

[Cassidy]
This the boy Cassidy man
And I'm feeling like a red nose that we just let out the cage man
I'm ready to bite one of you niggaz at any given moment

GET 'EM!!!!

[Verse 1]
My shit is the truth I get in the booth
And start spitting like I'm missing a tooth
You listening duke, I'm gripping the coupe, lifting the roof
Sip the orange juice mixed with the goose
Or shots of the yak I got gats that could lift up a moose
Stay with a biscuit to shoot like I'm Bishop in Juice
I get more bitches than Luke when I run the block
Fiends scream "I Wanna Rock, I Wanna Rock Ock"
I'm right in the curb white and the herb
And I got a nice price on the birds you might could get served
You come with the doe I come with the blow
But if you don't come with the change I'm a come with them thangs
Run up on you with the gun in the dickie
The collar coat hold a hundred and fifty
You wanna get busy come get me I'll bury you cats
Cus I wife the knife and I marry my gat

[Hook-Swizz Beats]
Get 'em get 'em get 'em get 'em

[Verse 2]
A yo my flow sick I need an antihistamine
Both of my wrists gleam and my fist just as mean
It's blue but it's see-through like Listerine
I get the cream on the strip fucking with the fiends
So go and get your team
And I'll get 'em all smoked like a stick a nicotine or a nick of green
And I don't talk to these hoes like I'm Mr. Bean
I just let 'em mop me off get a Mr. Clean
And I might pop her off if the chick is mean
I got some stories I can tell I'll sell a chick a dream
I'll let her sip a little liquor let her hit the green
Then I'm a unbutton her blouse and unzip her jeans
And merk that ass, hurt that ass
Cass show you how to work that ass
And I ain't with my boy Kells in the hotel no more
I'm on the strip making sells fish scale galore
Whore

[Verse 3]
I'm still acting a fool packing a tool
Went back to the dude before I was with the black and the jewels
I don't feel right if I ain't strapped with the tool
But give me a gat and I'm cool like the mac or the ooze
And I'll clap at you dudes I ain't scrapping you dudes
I'm kind of light and I ain't fighting I got ratchets to use
I'll have cats like "Damn yo what happened to dude?"
Listen homey if I'm hungry you'll get jacked for your food
I'm back on the move, back on the grind
I'm a natural born hustler I just happened to rhyme
Who would of ever thought I'll be the cat to get signed
But life hard to predict the shit happen sometimes
Cats jacking my lines, taking my style
But there ain't no perpetrators aloud
If you die then you can't testify when I take it to trial
You can hate it I just take it and smile
Motherfucker

[Hook-Swizz Beats]
Get 'em get 'em get 'em get 'em

(feat. Fabolous, Lil Wayne)



[Cassidy speaks in the beginning and between each verse]

[Cassidy]
Yeah, I go by the name of Cassidy the Hustler
And I brought two of my niggaz with me
and we about to shut the industry down
Aiyyo Wheezy let's get it poppin!

[Lil Wayne]
Hit me!
Front that shit this the south side, got a fat dick on your mouth wide
I've come to take outside, nah do it right here
Hop out later owning on everybody's home that you fuckin with
Wheezy F baby, please say the baby
Riding with your bitch got keys on the lady
Triple gold these four tires on the whip
Young Carter sliding out I'm flyer than the whip
Yeah, higher than an angel, or hotter than the devil
The pot or kettle, uh
The metal let 'em burn like Ursha but worse, uh
If there's any beef I come Ron like Mertz, uh
Word up, eagle street I'm throwing my curve up
We take your ice cream and turn you into sherbert
I got flow I'm like "Sure" but, if it's about dough I'm like "Sure 'nuff"
I'm from the bird bunch, Birdman Jr. you niggaz bird lunch
I see your lips moving but I ain't heard much
You see the wirst moving, it look like pure punch
I hear the playa hating but I don't endorse such
I got the Escalade, guts like the tour bus
I got the styrofoam poured up with syrup
And in the tires little package is gone
Might I spend a good deal with these Firestones
I spit like Myer's bones, born in chromers
For the buyers chromosomes I got summers
I got vicadens, valiums I ain't stopping
Got pot and heroin, ex, oxycontin
And that's how we rocking
How can you hear that bop unless I'm be-bopping
Yeah skip when you hear that click
Cash money nigga I'm that shit
Weezy Baby, ugh!

[Cassidy]
That's what I'm talking about
Now Fab, spit at these niggaz and let them know why they ain't fuckin with you

[Fabolous]
Your goddamn right I'm feeling myself
A chauffeur no sir, I'm wheeling myself
Looking for a chick chilling for self
So I can show her the suicides and talk her into killing herself
I'm having problems dealing with wealth
But you wouldn't understand it, until you get a million yourself
You niggaz must've got a deal for your health
Your cd is frozen food, it just chills on the shelf
I spend big, at any time I can start splurging
The twin cigs open chests like a heart surgeon
And I'm buttoned up, I'm just a blue collar crook
But I keep a stack thick as few college books
I got a new polished look
And twenty dime bitches, to show y'all niggaz how my two dollars look
The boy's got at least six digits on
So the guns gotta be at least midget long
The money, is like ten bridges long
I throw bread around just to turn pigeons on
I got some good smoke just for puffers
The two grand twenty's make the hustlers suffer
Plus it's fluffer, than a cotton ball
I've gotten calls wanting me to put the pot in malls
But nowadays you can't put it past 'em
I got a Dan Marino arm, I'm bout to throw some bullets past 'em
And the niggaz in the hood keep quoting my lines
I don't jump ship I keep floating in mine
Long as I keep toting I'm fine
I'mma have these dick sucking niggaz deep-throating the nine
I jumped in the English ship, Benzed whip
It's Terminator 2 chrome the engines dip
I'm reading scripts no, not the penmanship (no)
The box-office shit (yeah), I box off this bitch (yeah)
Jessica Alba, Kirsten Dunst
And still make a mil' off the first of months
These dudes be the first to front
'Til they family and friends is in limos, they in hearse in front
I'm in the top position, I can make you a proposition
I'm in the hard top waiting on the drop edition
To hell with the patience
I'mma send a nigga down under like Australia vacations

[Cassidy]
Yeah it is what it is, my niggaz just killed y'all and I'mma close the casket
I'm tryin not to let this industry get the best of me y'all
I work hard in the game, the game's stressing me y'all
All they do is complain what they expect from me y'all
From the hood to Hollywood they respecting me y'all
And even overseas they accepting me y'all
All the ladies show me love, the thugs repping me y'all
I get a lot of dirty money so respect me or fall
But I'm saving all my checks, I'm investing 'em all
They say, what goes up is gon' definitely fall
Even the stars work success, it's my destiny y'all
Look, I cook tracks I got the recipe y'all
You can't name another cat that can mess with me y'all
At the shows all the hoes be molesting me y'all
I got broads crying trying to get next to me y'all
I got broads craving begging to have sex with me y'all
Screaming, "Cash you don't know how sexy you are!"
And I'm happy I'm alive, God's blessing me y'all
And all the problems that arrive is God testing me y'all
So I pray everyday but I ain't praying too much
Cause I be sinning everyday so I ain't praying enough
And we all could be beat, and I ain't saying I'm tough
But if it's beef I don't speak, I ain't saying "What's up"
If it's beef when we meet then I'm spaying shit up
Prraat prraat.I ain't saying too much and that's that
Cause that cat you embracing with love
Might clap that gat cause he got hate in his blood
Keep your friends at a distance and your enemies close
Cause the folks you call friends can envy the most
Some cats'll hang themselves if you give 'em a rope
Burn the bridge and don't give a boat, let 'em sink
Sometimes you gotta give 'em some some time to let 'em think
But sometimes you gotta give 'em the nine and let 'em stink
You can't bring every horse to the pond and let 'em drink
I'd rather keep my eyes wide open instead of blink
As soon as your eyes shut, them niggaz will ride up
And the guys that you trusted be getting you tied up
And we all gotta die, but I ain't ready to leave
That's why even if it's petty I'll be ready to squeeze
But put a cheddar in cheese, guac-a-moola
I pop the ruger, send that hot shit through ya!
Like booya! That's the sound when the pound busting
Ooh, ah, you'll be laying on the ground suffering
Clowning's nothing to pull out and blast you
I try to only resort to violence if I have to
But man niggaz out here are playing fair
So before the odds are even I'm leaving them laying there
And I ain't even playing believe what I'm saying here
Cause before this shit gets further your click gets murdered
And found in a hole in the grass
For trying to play that thug role I'll stomp a mud hole in your ass
And this Cass, nigga I'm that sick
Full Surface nigga I'm that shit, bitch!

It’s a real bad time for black celebrities, they lockin everybody up: 

Michael Jackson, James Brown, Tupac, R. Kelly, OJ Simpson, Mike Tyson, 
Kobe Bryant, Jay-Z, Mystikal, P. Diddy, Allen Iverson, Snoop Dogg, DMX, 
Styles P, Shine, Beanie Segal, Lil’ Kim. 

[Hook:]
Is it because I’m Black 
Is it because I’m Black 

When you black you got to hustle, got to struggle and strive. 
And not every cat that goes through that struggle survive. 
But he got to stay stronger and keep the struggle alive. 
They say the struggle died, I say the struggle revived. 
My profession is going through oppression. 
That’s why I’m so stressed and Im working with no rest, 
and no question ima fight for yall cause I don’t like it yall, 
we make half as much as them, we workin twice as hard yall. 
It aint fair sometimes you seein heaven signs, I aint Pharaohcon 
But I got knowledge and I’m sharing mines. I swear its time to 
be aware that they fear you mind, and they fear your heart. You 
want to change heres the start. I’m tired of watching cops outline 
my peers and yall, I’m trying to make a move, I’m not trying to make 
the news. They say the consequences worst when we break the 
rules. To get back and right you got to make a sacrifice. 

[Hook:]
Is it because I’m Black 
Is it because I’m Black 

We got some problems we need solve, heres our chance to get them handle. 
Just take the boycott in Alabama for example. They stop ridin the bus till they 
address their affairs. And they ended segregation in less then a year. So imagine 
what our status if we made a contribution, we’ll probably be able to change the 
constitution. I cant see no other kind of solution we deserve our reparation, its 
time for a revolutions. I’m a step ahead of Satan, I read it in Revelation. Forget 
your reputation, lets make it a better nation, cause they trying to cage us in, 
make us slaves again, eventually its meant to be the new plantation, the penitentiary. 
For centuries they had a plan we let them executed, everyday another brother getting 
executed. And all our artist getting arrested I aspect improvement. It’s a message 
in the music, I suggest you use it. 

[Hook:]
Somebody tell me what can I do. 
Will I survive or will I die 

On the streets its hard to survive.
Why, is it because I’m black,
Hot Shot got rock, I cant bring my cousin back.
Five-hundred thousand sold, gold, yeah it wasn’t platinum,
but Clyde gave me another try, cause I wasn’t whack.
And now im buzzin back, yeah I got my budget back.
Renegotiating got a mil to do a dozen tracks.
Yea I’m eatin only reason is because I rap, my homies eatin only reason is because of crack.
They cant get a job so them niggas quick to rob, quick to steal,
quick to kill, grip the steal, quick to ride.
Malcolm X, Martin Luther King we cant forget them guys.
These politician, hypocrites they got us hypnotize.
That why I kiss rick, why, we got to lift our eyes.
Cause if we keep’em close they just goin keep control.
And hold our sisters and brothers in the pen and we was born guilty
cause the color of our skin.

(feat. Jay-Z)

Quick fast nigga, Cass is a rich ass nigga, I got it on smash I make
Hits and your shit trash nigga, naw you ain't hot at all, so when the
Media asks if I fuck wit a lot of y'all I'm like not at all, the last
Cat I heard rapping I knotted off, so I ain't fucking with nothing
If I'm not involved, My one liners make rhymers need tylenol, and I've
Been sick with the hook since I wrote Got it off, for kissin Eve, I
Flip the keys, I got 20's of the Christmas trees with no sticks and
Seeds, that'll get you higher than a muthafucka, I'm a pretty type guy
Flyer than a muthafucka, I'm a hustler wit time and a plan, When I
Perform its more than 2000 in the stands, I been getting thousands to
The grams, that's why I'm on the cover of the Source with 10,000 in
My hand, the reason I be smiling for my fans, is because I ain't
Trying lose my deal like I'm Dylon from The Band, man, these niggaz
Acting like thugs, but they ain't never squeeze, these niggaz
Acting like bloods its cuz they ain't never bleed, we all thugs I'm
A better breed and you can't say that I don't come back to the hood
Cuz I ain't never leave, and shit change, shit the same wit this
Cheddar cheese, I just cop betta coke and smoke betta weed, I'm single
So I get the hoes that I want, I had the #1 single and went gold
In a month what you want

[Chorus]

[Da Hustla:]
Yea, You just a Performer, I was on the corner grindin the packet,
I'm a Ryder, If there's drama, I'm Palmin the Ratchet
And You could find me In traffic, I'm in the streets,
10 Years ago I was Movin like 10 a Week,
You just a family man, Tryin settle down,
You on parole, So you scared to hold the metal now,
You moved away from the hood, I'm in the ghetto now,
Yea, I grip pipes, I jus like how the metal sound,
I got the metal now, Nigga, I ain't never scared,
How the Fuck You run Philly and You ain't never there,
And I ain't never feared nuttin but god,
You went to jail, came home and ain't do nuttin but Hide,
But Fuck it, I'm a Ride, I Mite startin sparkin the H,
I send rap Cats to God like Mase,
And like the car accident, I'll put another scar on your face,
But when the 5 Clap, You ain't gone Survive that!

[BARS:]
Oh, You ruthless? The record I'm a Hustla Stupid,
Cause Jay Made more off the record than You Did,
And Swizz made more off the record than You Did,
So You did somethin for nuthin you doofus,
I'm to sick for, any nigga with 2 lips,
And 1 tongue in his mouth, I talk to slick,
You only got a few hits and a couple fans,
And I could probly get you bodied for a couple grand,
I caught a murder, attempts I had a couple man,
But I could knuckle man, and knock you out with a couple hands,
Every bar I spit raw like a couple grams,
You the Hustla, But I'll show you how to hustle man!

[Da Hustla:]
Look, I'm a Give this guy an aplause,

Cause I'm a hustla, I sold Pies of the Raw,
Plus, the hustla gon ride if it's war,
But You the type of boy that'll hide if it's war,
You the type'a boy that never come outside if it's war,
So, you a nut to me, You know you can't fuck with me,
And BARS you was locked up on protective custody,
You like my son, but I don't want custody!
You a mut to me, I'm a Pit, And You a pup to me,
You in the street cause you beat the case luckily!
But You ain't tough as me,
I'll burn You like a dutch-a-tree!

[BARS:]
You a snitch, You a rat, You a sing, You'll hold the note,
I sold the coke, or smoke weed till I'm comatose,
I live by the rules, I was schooled by the older folks,
I was showed the ropes by the cats that was holdin toast,
Lords knows even goons get the holy ghost,
Yea, I believe in christ but I'll still squeeze a pipe,
And I don't even need to write, Or switch the flow,
You niggas know I ain't MURDA FLUKE or Cysi-Ro!
I'm way sicker yo, So who ever supposed to be nice get 2 choices, the toast or the knife!
And if you think you a hustler, then You the one smokin the pipe,
Cause you ain't never sold no coke in you life, Trust me!
You must be given money away if you got 20 strips all doin 20 a day!
Cause You ain't worth shit, You went gold on your first disc,
And I'm a Hustla sold less then your first shit!

Hotter whole clip and a bullet in the chamber feels,
You don't know how carrying a banger feel,
You don't get no respect like Rodney Dangerfield You prolly never slammed crack cocaine for real,
Or took them white things on an airplane for real, I had my young boy slang your grills,
And this little bitch runnin with the rocker one named a mil,
You could ask about me my name is real,
I'm a one man army and I was trained to kill,
For real.

My life la vida loca
Your girl from Puerto Rico
She took a look at me
And she said Adios amigo

My vato brought them kilos
How much I told em mucho
He drop off;
I said gracias and Adios amigos

I just got bac from Cuba
Where everythin' is legal
Ten thousand pounds of guido
Then said adios amigos

Most of my hoe bisexual
But my connect bilingual
Everytime I cash out
He says adios amigos

Turn me up a little
Just a little more
Your girlfriend sniffed a kilo
Gotchu sayin what a lil whore

Damn she muy bonito
I luv her more than guido
She got wit me
Then call you and say adios amigo

Mi casa is su casa
But not really she can gizzzooo
And she don't gotta go home

And if you wanna beef
Ill wrap you up like a burrito
Now me straight out your taco
Aks rocko thats ma vato

My new girlfriend a knockout

Vvs all my Rocks, My Watch

[Versus 1]
Shawty says she loves me but I’m thinking maybe
Wanna have my baby
And wanna name him Radric.
My name Radric Davis, I am not a savior.
Radric is a player but Gucci is the mayor (It’s Gucci!).
Shawty fine as hell but she thick as hell.
Love the way she walk and I love the way she smells.
Shawty says loves me but I don’t believe her.
What about your Ex-man, could have been your husband.
What about your boyfriend, better yet your girlfriend.
Girl got a girlfriend,
But I don’t have a girlfriend.
But I got a bitch tho sitting in my seven four.
Ridin through the six slow hood love me.
So Icey Boyz everybody got a bad bitch.
Juice keep a bad bitch, Zey keep a bad bitch,
Frenchie got a bad bitch,
Whoop got a bad bitch,
Gucci got a bad bitch and Wacka got a bad bitch.

[Chorus]
All my bitches love me, All my bitches love me.

All my bitches love me, My bitch says that she loves me.
I am very lucky, I think that she loves me (It’s Gucci Baby)

[Verse 2]
All my bitches love me, My bitch is not ugly.
My bitches ain’t dusty, but your bitch is busted.
Yo bitch is a buster, My bitch is a hustler.
She don’t fuck with suckas, She know you a sucka.
You probably know of her. You may even fucked her
She can’t give me nothing but a nut because I’m stuck up.
Gucci got a dump  truck and he got a hummer.
And he painted all of his cars green for the summer.
You a freaky gurl but I don’t want your number.
(noooooo) I just want that thang beat up just like it’s a drumma.
BumBumuBum. Grab you by your palm Palm.
Then I pull out a condom and make her want some. 

[Chorus]
All my bitches love me, All my bitches love me.
All my bitches love me I am very lucky (kisses Hahahaha)
My bitch says she loves me, My bitch says she loves me
I am very lucky cuz my bitch say she loves me
All my bitches love me, All my bitches love me.
All my bitches love me, All my bitches love me
All my bitches love me, My bitch says that she loves me.
I am very lucky, I think that she loves me (It’s Gucci Baby)

[Verse 3]
Gucci Mane the bachelor damn you attractive.
Looking for the baddest bitch cuz I think I can handle it.
My swag is conceited, some bitches can’t stand it.
Some over stand it, but some don’t understand it.
All my bitches love me, but I’m not romantic.
But I love it when they were their dress without the panties,
Gucci Mane, I’m madness don’t you think I’m handsome.
Curling a Lambo, You handle like a Phantom.
Hotter than a candle you trying to get a temper.
Can I get a sample I feel like a need a pamper.
So Icey the shit gurl. Don’t you think we handsome?
Don’t you think we handsome 

[Chorus]
All my bitches love me, All my bitches love me.
All my bitches love me I am very lucky (kisses Hahahaha)
My bitch says she loves me, My bitch says she loves me
I am very lucky cuz my bitch say she loves me
All my bitches love me, All my bitches love me.
All my bitches love me, All my bitches love me
All my bitches love me, My bitch says that she loves me.
I am very lucky, I think that she loves me (It’s Gucci Baby)

The truth be told, the truth be told 
I'm worried about the future holds, the future holds 
I'm starting to worry about Ray 

The truth be told, the truth be told 
I'm worried about the future holds, the future holds 
I'm seriously worried about Ray 

They say the future's out to get you 
You know that I won't let you fall 
They say the future's out to get you 
You know that I won't let you fall 

The truth be told, the truth be told 
I'm treading on my tippy toes, my tippy toes 
I'm starting to worry about Ray 

The truth be told, the truth be told 
I'm treading on my tippy toes, my tippy toes 
I'm painfully so worried about Ray 

They say the future's out to get you 
You know that I won't let you fall 
They say the future's out to get you 
You know that I won't let you fall 
No! 

They say the future's out to get you 
You know that I won't let you fall 
They say the future's out to get you 
You know that I won't let you fall 

The future's out to get you, the future's out to get you, oh 
The future's out to get you, the future's out to get you, oh 

The truth be told, the truth be told 
I'm worried what the future holds, the future holds 
I'm so tired of being worried about Ray

Goodbye Mr. A

There's a hole in your logic, 
You who know all the answers, (Oh-oh-oh-oh) 
You claim science ain't magic, (Oo-oo-oo-oo) 
And expect me to buy it 

Goodbye Mr. A, 
You promised you would love us, but you knew too much, 
Goodbye Mr. A, 
You had all the answers but no human touch, 
Your life is subtraction, 
Your number is up, 
Your love is a fraction, 
It's not any more 

So busy showing me where I'm wrong, 
You forgot to switch your feelings on, (Oh-oh-oh-oh) 
So, so superior, are you not, 
You love a little bit but you forgot 

Goodbye Mr. A, 
You promised you would love us, but you knew too much, 
Goodbye Mr. A, 
You had all the answers but no human touch, 
Your life is subtraction, 
Your number is up, 
Your love is a fraction, 
It's not any more 

Goodbye Mr. A 

Goodbye Mr. A, 
The world was full of fun until you opened my eyes, 
Goodbye Mr. A, 
Wish you hadn't pulled my mind and killed the surprise, 
Goodbye Mr. A, 
You promised you would love us, but you knew too much, 
Goodbye Mr. A 
You had all the answers but no human touch. 

Your life is subtraction, 
Your number is up, 
Your love is a fraction, 
It's not any more

Hypnotised by mirrors
You should look out your window
Beneath cracked panes of ice
A sky's on fire
Drowned by the screams of decadence
A call to arms
Too busy working out to
Work it out

It's not gonna matter what you chose
It's too late when everything goes
Da ya ya yark
Da ya ya yark

It's creeping up on you 
Tt knows your name
All that you left behind 
Will never be the same
It's come for all that you hold dear
She starts to cry
And hears a song to break your heart
You're looking in the dark
I can't see
It's getting late
In the night we made mistakes

Da ya ya yark
Da ya ya yark
Da ya ya yark
Da ya ya yark

Would you leave yourself alone?
If everything goes dark
Would you lighten up your town?
Once everything goes dark
Everything goes dark
Everything goes dark

Da ya ya yark
Da ya ya yark
Da ya ya yark
Da ya ha ha
Da ya ha ha
Da ya ha ha
Da ya ha ha
Da ya ha ha
Da ya ha ha

Everything goes dark
Everything goes dark
Everything goes dark

Da ya ya yark
Da ya ya yark
Da ya ya yark

In the morning
I could take the burning sun
I could be the only warning but I'm not the only
So forgive me, Cause its more than I can bear
In demand I make my mind up by deciding not to care

Stop giving me choices
Stop giving me choices

I'm the victim, of this day and age
I've forgotten how to feel
I've forgotten how to change
So I surrender, to the apple of my eye
I surrender to the wind, I will let the wind decide

Stop giving me choices (woah oo)
Stop giving me choices (Woah oo)
Stop giving me choices (woah oo)
Stop giving me choices (Woah oo)

I could Break it, I could break it till it hurts
I could take Whatever words you say, Pretend I never heard
So Forgive me, Shouldn't be so hard
It's they way I'm put together, so your never getting past

Cant we talk this through
Actions are not what I'm used to
Cant we talk this through
Actions are not what I'm used to

Stop giving me choices (woah oo)
Stop giving me choices (Woah oo)
Stop giving me choices (woah oo)
Stop giving me choices (Woah oo)
(I surrender)
Stop giving me choices (woah oo)
Stop giving me choices (Woah oo)
(Just forgive me)
Stop giving me choices (woah oo)
Stop giving me choices (Woah oo)

Without Friction, We Would float up into space
Maybe you could be the friction that will keep me in my place
In the morning, I could take the burning sun
I could be the only warning but I'm not the only one

How does it feel
To spit out sunny skies?
And do you believe it's for real?
That you've always got it right?

When the words you had explode,
And you swallow them up whole,
No you gotta let go let go,
You'll love it when you let go let go let go.

It's gonna be a bumpy ride
But it sure beats standing still.
I know we can work it out,
And I've no doubt that we will.
When it hurts more than it shows,
It's not the easiest of roads.
No it's never black and white,
And you can keep your happy life.

When the words to that affect.
Have no effect on you at all,
But you gotta let go let go,
You'll love it when you let go
Let go let go.

If only you could let go,
You'd love it if you let go.
If only you could let go,
If only you could let go let go let go.

[Verse 1:]
I met this girl down the block from me
Used to tell myself she was too hot for me
But then I saw her at the corner store
So I ran on over just to grab the door
I got her number we started chillin (hey)
We started buzzin, we got addicted
Now I, I'm the one she can't live without
I bet that's her right now

[Chorus:]
Shorty hittin' me up
Says she wanna re-up
Knows I got the best in town
Cuz when she get the shivers
She knows that I'll deliver
I'm the one that holds her down
She's about to break break break break break 
And I won't let her wait wait wait wait wait
It's gettin' kinda late late late late late
And she just wanna shake shake shake shake shake

[Verse 2:]
One day she started texting me
Asked if she could borrow that recipe
I told her loving you is my specialty
She said well give it up up, give it up up
When she's away it's such a downer

And I miss her every time I'm not around her
Cuz she, she's the one I can't live without
I hope that's her right now

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
I'm hooked on her
I must admit it
I'd do anything to get it
She hooked on it
A bad habit
She'd do anything to have it
When she calls I know
Exactly what she wants from me
Yea anytime I hear my phone ringin'
She wants to shake it with me

[Chorus]

He said "I grew up in Wichita
In a Mayberry kind of town"
He never liked overalls
Or haulin' hay 'til sundown
He said he dreamed about L.A.
As he plowed away the day on an old John Deere
I said "Boy let me warn you
In southern California there's some fast trains here"

You're not in Kansas anymore
Can't be too careful that's for sure
City lights will led you on
Morning comes and they'll be gone
So write my number on your wall
You can call me anytime at all
I'm so happy now boy
You're not in Kansas anymore

He said do you know where Carson lives
So we drove up to Malibu
Cruisin' down Sunset Strip
I let him steal a kiss or two
Under the Hollywood sign
I tried to hide a smile as I whispered low
I wanna be the first to tell you
Here we say Rodel, not rodeo

You're not in Kansas anymore
Can't be too careful that's for sure
City lights will led you on
Morning comes and they'll be gone
So write my number on your wall
And call me anytime at all
I'm so happy now boy
You're not in Kansas anymore

I'm so happy now boy
You're not in Kansas anymore

She sits in the dark
Quietly cursing him and this love
While she's rehearsing every line
She's gonna say when she walks away
On a wing and a prayer

Looking back at her in the mirror is a stranger
Years that have passed, how they seemed to change her
A woman once able to stand on her own
Searches for strength to stand on her own
On a wing and a prayer

On a wing and a prayer
She's leaving tonight
Holding her heart in her hands
Somewhere out there she knows that she'll find a love that understands
Why she left there on a wing and a prayer

She held on to maybe as long as she could, knowing he wouldn't
Believeing he would, give her a single reason to stay
To keep her from breaking away on a wing and a prayer

On a wing and a prayer
She's leaving tonight
Holding her heart in her hands
Somewhere out there she knows that she'll find a love that understands
Why she left there on a wing and a prayer

Somewhere out there she knows that she'll find a love that understands
Why she left there on a wing and a prayer
Oh, why she left there on a wing and a prayer

His heart was tougher than a piece of leather
Had a will carved out of stone
He was stallion who had thrown every rider
No woman could seem to hang on
He had always been a fortress
With walls to high to climb
But then again he'd never seen Julie cry

He wasn't lookin for a woman
He was racin' with the wind
But he kinda took to Julie
Cause she kept up with him
Thought he'd out run her like the others
Leave her somewhere down the line
But then again he'd never seen Julie cry

He never thought that love would hit him
Like a train comin' out of the dark
He never thought a friend would hand him the keys to his own heart
He was like a ragin' river
One that's just to rough to ride
But then again he'd never seen Julie cry

But then again he'd never seen Julie cry

Oh how he wanted just to hold her
And wipe away the tears
But she turned him a cold shoulder
Said I've tried lovin' you for years
He didn't know that it was over
He thought he could make it right
But then again he'd never seen Julie cry

He never thought that love would hit him
Like a train comin' out of the dark
He never thought a friend would hand him the keys to his own heart
He was like a ragin' river
Oh one that's just to rough to ride
But then again he'd never seen Julie cry

Oh but then again he'd never seen Julie cry

Ooooooohhh

Until then he'd never seen Julie cry

Baby, what do you say we just get lost?
Leave this one horse townlike two rebels without a cause.
I got people in Boston.
Ain't your daddy still in Des Moines?
We can pack up tomorrow.
Tonight, let's flip a coin

Heads, Carolina Tails, California.
Somewhere greener, somewhere warmer.
Up in the mountains, down by the ocean.
Where? It don't matter, as long as we're goin'
Somewhere together. I've got a quarter.
Heads, Carolina Tails, California.

We can load what we own in the back of a U-haul van.
Couple modern day Moses', searchin for the promised land.
We can go four hundred miles before we stop for gas. 
We can drive for a day, and then we'll take a look at the map.

Heads, Carolina Tails, California.
Somewhere greener, somewhere warmer.
Up in the mountains, down by the ocean.
Where? It don't matter, as long as we're goin'
Somewhere together. I've got a quarter.
Heads, Carolina Tails, California.

We're gonna get outta here if we gotta ride a Greyhound bus.
Boy, we're bound to outrun the bad luck that's tailin' us

Heads, Carolina Tails, California.
Somewhere greener, somewhere warmer.
Up in the mountains, down by the ocean.
Where? It don't matter, as long as we're goin'
Somewhere together. I've got a quarter.
Heads, Carolina Tails, California.

O--oh, California! Carolina! California!

Remember me
The one who picked up all the pieces, me
The one whos love for you increases everyday
And it won't go away like she did
Remember her
The one who left your heart abandoned, her
Well she's back again and I can't stand it
It hurts 'cause with her tears all glistening
She's got you listening to her promises
Well remember this

I didn't have to leave you to love you
I didn't have to lose you first to want you more than ever
I didn't have to leave you to love you
I didn't have to see if I could tear your world apart
And still win back your heart
I didn't have to leave you to love you
I loved you from the start

You know me
I only want whats best for you and I'd leave
If you really wanted me to
But if I say that I don't want to stay
It would be right
You know her
And she knows how to get to you
Oh the nerve, she's offering her bed to you
And what's worse
Is that she knows you started over
But she still insists that you owe her one more try
Well I knew

I didn't have to leave you to love you
I didn't have to lose you first to want you more than ever
I didn't have to leave you to love you
I didn't have to see if I could tear your world apart
And still win back your heart
I didn't have to leave you to love you
I loved you from the start

I didn't have to leave you to love you

I remember when I was a little girl
Growin' up livin' in my own little world
So it seemed
I had my dolls and dreams

Mama was always there to comfort me
And her love
Wasn't nothin' quite like it
In the world that I knew of

Before I knew it, I was standing in my teens
Sweet little boy with his strong young arm holdin' me

I remember the first time I felt his kiss
Oh, it like to drove me crazy
And I remember sayin' I never felt nothin' like this

So I went and asked mama
Can you tell me what it means
And she said, you're in love
And that's every little girls dream

Baby, what you've found
Is every little girls dream

So I said, mama does love ever last
She says, where by now let the future come to pass
Just understand and enjoy what you've found
And listen to it just as long as your heart is sound

And love, there ain't nothin' quite like it
In the world anybody knows of
There are worlds all through my teens
Same little boy with his strong young arm lovin' me

I remember the first time I felt his kiss
Oh, it like to drove me crazy
And I remember sayin' I never felt nothin' like this

I remember sayin' to mama
I know just what you mean
I'm in love, and that's every little girl's dream

Woah, what I found
Is every little girl's dream

And I found mine, and mama says, me too baby
Once upon a time
It lifts you up, but it lets you down

There'll be another dream to bring it back around

There's something about the first time
That keeps you rememberin'
When you've found every little girl's dream

Every little girl's dream
I found
Every little girl's dream
(I remember the first time I felt his kiss)
Every little girl's dream
(I remember sayin' I never felt nothin' like this)
Every little girl's dream
(I found someone and I fell in love)
Every little girl's dream
(I remember sayin' I never felt nothin' like this)

Well it's been a long time glad to see your face
I knew we'd meet again another time another place
Can't believe it's been so many years
You'd better grab a chair and a couple of beers
Lookin' good in your three piece suit
You know I always knew you'd take the business route
You were always the one to follow the light and you look like you're doing alright

Been singin' for my rent and singin' for my supper
I'm above the below and below the upper
I'm stuck in the middle where money gets tight
But I guess I'm doin' alright

I'm all I'm all I'm alright
It's a beautiful day not a cloud in sight so I guess I'm doin' alright
O- oh o-oh, I'm alright
Got a good old friend here with me tonight and I guess I'm doin' alright

Well we had a lot of dreams when we were younger
They thought we were crazy but we had the hunger
We kept a lot of friends skipped a lot of class
Been on top of the world and knocked on our 
We lost touch, we lost in love
We lost our minds when things got tough but
Beatin' time is a losin' fight and I guess I'm doin' alright

I'm all I'm all I'm alright
It's a beautiful day not a cloud in sight so I guess I'm doin' alright
O-oh o-oh I'm alright
I got a good old friend here with me tonight and I guess I'm doin' alright
Well I guess I'm doin' alright

Well I hate to see this evening end
God only knows when I'll see you again
Just send a fax or send me a letter or give me a call that would even be better
Give the kids a kiss for me and say hello to the family
And tell them all my future's lookin' bright
Well I miss 'em but I'm doin' alright
I said I miss 'em but I'm doin' alright

I'm all I'm all I'm alright
It's a beautiful day not a cloud in sight so I guess I'm doin' alright
O-oh o-oh, I'm alright
Got a good old friend here with me tonight and I guess I'm doin' alright
Well I guess I'm doin' alright
I'm doin' alright

He left me cryin' late one Sunday night outside of Boulder
He said he had to find himself out on the road
I guess when love goes wrong
You've gotta learn to be strong

So I worked two jobs and I moved three times
I ended up south of Memphis workin' down in Riverside
I may not be so lucky in love
But the one thing I'm sure of

I want a man that stands beside me
Not in front of or behind me
Give me two arms that want to hold me not own me
And I'll give all the love in my heart
Stand beside me
Be true don't tell lies to me
I'm not lookin' for a fantasy
I want a man that who stands beside me

I didn't expect to see him one hot July morning
His hair was longer but his eyes were the same old blue
He said, I've missed you for so long. Oh baby, what can I do
I said, I want a man that stands beside me
Not in front of or behind me
Give me two arms that want to hold me not own me
And I'll give all the love in my heart

It's hard to tell him no when I want him so bad
But I've got to be true to my heart This time

I'm not lookin' for a fantasy
I want a man who stands beside me
I want a man
Who stands beside me
Stand beside me
Stand beside me

Pick up any morning paper
Turn on the 6 o'clock news
The devil's been so busy lately
That even God must get the blues

A young man lies there in the street
His life gone like it was nothin' to lose
And for the shoes there on his feet
Yes even God must get the blues

When this rain falls down from heaven
It must be the angels cryin'
For all the sorrow in the world tonight

A young girl hides her face in shame
So they can't see it's been battered and bruised
Like she's the one to blame
Yes even God must get the blues

Pick up any evening paper
Turn on the 10 o'clock news
The devil's been so busy lately
That even God must get the blues
Yeah even God must get the blues

I gave you everything I had
Oh but it wasn't enough
It don't seem right to hurt so bad
When all you're giving is love
You wouldn't let me love you
You're just too hard to hold
I gotta break the chains that bind me
So I'm

Gonna take a cab, take a train
Maybe a limousine
Anything to get me out of here
Ain't no way around it
Oh no doubt about it
One thing is clear
Oh there's no time for tears
Oh no

A wall too steep too high to climb
Is protecting your heart
I tried to break through time after time
Oh but it keeps us apart
I've cried enough to know that
It's killing me to stay
I'd rather be alone
Than hurt this way

Gonna take a cab, take a train
Maybe a limousine
Anything to get me out of here
Ain't no way around it
Oh no doubt about it
One thing is clear
Oh there's no time for tears

The time has come
To move ahead
And find what waits for me
Ooh whoa whoa

Gonna take a cab, take a train
Maybe a limousine
Anything to get me out of here
Ain't no way around it
Oh no doubt about it
One thing is clear
Oh there's no time for
No time for, no time for
There's no time for tears
Oh no
No time for tears
Yeah
No time for, no time for tears
No time for tears
Oh no no no no

Somebody's gonna give you a lesson in leavin'
Somebody's gonna give you back what you've been givin'
And I hope that I'm around
To watch 'em knock you down
It's like you to love 'em and leave 'em
Just like you loved me and left me
It's like you to do that sort of thing
Over and over again
You're a fool-hearted man

I hear you've been askin' about me
From some of my friends
Well you'd better believe I'm not goin'
Through that again
You're the kind of man a woman thinks she can change
Oh, but the only thing changin' is my way of thinkin'
And I'm thinkin' that maybe someday

Somebody's gonna give you a lesson in losin'
Somebody's gonna do to you what you've been doin'
And I hope that I'm around
To watch 'em knock you down
Somebody's gonna give you a lesson in hurtin'
Somebody's gonna leave you with your fire burnin'
And no way to put it out
Baby there ain't no doubt
You're a fool-hearted man

Yeah, you're the kind of man
A woman thinks she can change
But the only thing changin'
Is my way of thinkin'
And I'm thinkin' that maybe someday

Somebody's gonna give you a lesson in leavin'
Somebody's gonna give you back what you've been givin'
And I hope that I'm around
To watch 'em knock you down
It's like you to love 'em and leave 'em
Just like you loved me and left me
It's like you to do that sort of thing
Over and over again
You're a fool-hearted man

Somebody's gonna give you a lesson in leavin'
Somebody's gonna give you back what you've been givin'
And I hope that I'm around
To watch 'em knock you down
It's like you to love 'em and leave 'em
Just like you loved me and left me
It's like you to do that sort of thing
Over and over again
You're a fool-hearted man

Oh, a fool-hearted man
Oh, whoa
Oh, a fool-hearted man

Boy you sure look good there standin' in the doorway in the sunset light
Maybe I read you wrong thinkin' you could be my Mr. Right
I was puttin' my heart and soul on the line
Said you needed some time, just a little more time to make up your mind
Well it's been long enough
Time is up

Bye bye love, I'll catch you later
Got a lead foot down on my accelerator and the rearview mirror torn off
I ain't never lookin' back. And that's a fact.
I've tried all I can imagine
I've begged and pleaded in true lover's fashion
I've got pride, I'm takin' it for a ride
Bye bye, bye bye my baby, bye bye

Don't think all those tears are gonna hold me here like they've done before
You'll find what's left of us in a cloud of dust on highway 4
Baby what did you expect me to do
Just sit around and wait on you
Well I'm through watchin' you just skate around the truth
And I know it sounds trite
I've seen the light

Bye bye love, I'll catch you later
Got a lead foot down on my accelerator and the rearview mirror torn off
'Cause I ain't never lookin' back, and that's a fact.
I've tried all I can imagine
I've begged and pleaded in true lover's fashion
I've got pride, I'm takin' it for a ride
Bye bye, bye bye my baby, bye bye

I'd lost the game I guess
I did my best to win the part
Now I'm leavin' here with what's left of my heart. 
Bye bye, I'll catch you later
Got a lead foot down on my accelerator and the rearview mirror torn off
'Cause I ain't never lookin' back. 
You can count on that.
I've tried all I can imagine
I've begged and pleaded in true lover's fashion
I've got pride, I'm takin' it for a ride
Bye bye, bye bye my baby, bye bye

Bye bye
Ooh baby
Oh oh
Bye bye, bye bye my baby, bye bye
