[Verse 2]
[D]Mummy I saw one day (one day)
She was on some fume vapors
Givin' me lip so I continued with the caper
Cat litter had me sniffin
Since outside the [Ebdim]palace
Eyes sicker than AIDS
Game [D]harder than a callous
Tried to enter in her shit
She had locks on the session
Tellin [Ebdim]me how her last man
[D]Taught her ass a lesson (damn)
Well, I'm not the mayor
I take care of my dimes
But I ex[Ebdim]cluded I had nickels
Addin' [D]up to [G]her kind (ha)
Short [F#]stacks with a [C#]wrist full of jewels Sayin she

[Verse 3]
[C#]
didn't need a [D]man
To make her out for a fool
Dig it, miss,
my love is credited in [C#]cupid account
And if you need that extra [D]help,
I got the extra amount
Gigglin, figurin' I had [C#]jokes
for her humor
Then she [D]broke out with the words
About knowin all the rumors
"See, all you niggas rappin
be like [C#]pedigree dogs
Thinkin' [D]you can have me leashed
Around your microphone cord"
Somethin 'bout her lit me up like July
[Ebdim]And with them onions
in the [D]pants
I couldn't help but cry
Seemed lost in the essence
But I had to find my way to take
Action for the digits just
to set up a date
Thought my shinin' was on
I had the skirts in the bag
Until i took a bit of time
To peep the price on the tag
She said "I'm that salt and pepa
Who like pushin it to sisters
[Ebdim]You need to get to [D]walkin with it mister
I think you betta [G]listen"
[C#](Listen all

[Verse 4]
[D]you fellas,
giver [G]her good lovin')
[C#](Listen all you fellas,
the [D]kind she understands)
(Listen all you fellas,
then you won't [G]have to [C#]worry[D] no no no)
(Listen all you fellas,
you betta listen) (you betta [G]listen)
[C#]We

[Verse 5]
[D]was[C#] at s[D]ome outside
jam one Saturday night
When this pretty ass girl got
locked in my sight
She was a ghetto philosopher
Yeah you know the type
Thinkin' [Ebdim]Mary J. and Sade
under[D]stood her strife
Caught [B]me lookin',
"Yo [D]what's cookin?"
"Nothin' from around [Ebdim]here
So don't approach or [D]hope
To be the man of the year"
I said listen deer or rabbit or
whatever the hell you [Ebdim]be
I'm not the one to embarrass
But the [D]one to emcee
I traveled the world quarters
on my relation[Ebdim]ships
Used and abused by hoes
So my [D]royalty stubs
But above all
I brought my daughter into this earth
So I understand the need
Of women feeling of worth
She glanced deep in my eyes
And said "oh shit, you're ill
I [Ebdim]like the way your mind
Moves [D]around at will
[B]Still, let me [D]apologize
for soundin' so sassy
But niggas [Ebdim]act as if my ass
Has a [D]sign that says harass me"
Her name was Gail from [C#]the union of Dale
I made her remove [D]the shades
So her eyes could tell me the plan
Yo where's [G]your man?
"Oh that [C#]nigga's past tense
Painted bruises on [D]my face
Haven't seen him ever since"
Gave a pinch to my bottom
And started [C#]rubbing my back
She said "I bet your ass [D]is darker
Than a Mobb Deep track"
Only [C#]one way to [D]know it
And I [C#]was down to show it
So we [D]jetted back to
my crib to set it
She made it known
"I've owned thoughts of you
Since [Ebdim]that song 'meeny- meeny'
Can't believe you're about
To be [D]all up in between me"
Man, the flag was lowered
So my wood was raised
Followed [Ebdim]a shielding of my building
To pro[D]tect me from the blaze
[B]This granted acc[D]ess to
Southern parts of her borders
[Ebdim]Did you have her comin'?
Like the [D]new world order
I caught her with the right combination
A good combination
Keepin' it in her hard, man
You betta listen

[Verse 6]
(Listen [D]all you fel[G]las,
[C#]give[D]r[G]
[C#][D][G]
[C#]her [D]good[G] lovin')
[D](Listen all[C#][D][G]
[D]you[C#] fell[D]as,[G]
[C#]the kind[D] she understands)
(Listen all you fellas,
[G]then [C#]you won't[D] have to worry no no n[G]o)
(Listen all you fellas,
[Bb]you [G]betta list[Bb]en) ([G]you betta[Bb]
[D]listen)

[Verse 7]
That nigga said S- Os, I ain't retarded yo He
probably did cause niggas
Cause even when you were saying S- Os, I
wasn't even thinking club S- Os
I'm thinking S.O.B's cause niggas
do call S.O.B's, S- Os
Like you know just for short
But there is a Club S- Os too
Well they gotta cut that shit out
They have to [D]cause they
done fucked with Maceo today
