[Intro 1]
[D][Em][D][Em]
[D][Em][D][Em]

[Verse 1]
[D]Just waking up in the morning,
gotta thank God
[Em]I don't know but today seems kinda odd
[D]No barking from the dog, no smo[Em]g
And momma cooked a breakfast
with no hog
[D](yeah)
I got my grub on, but didn't pig out
[Em]Finally got a call from a girl
I want to dig out [D](wassup?)
Hooked it up for later as I hit the do'
[Em]Thinking, "Will I live another twenty fo'?"
[D]I gotta go 'cause I got me a drop top
And [Em]if I hit the switch,
I can make the ass [D]drop
Had to stop at a red light
[Em]Looking in my mirror, not a jacker in sight
[D]And everything is alright
I got a [Em]beep from Kim
and she can fuck all [D]night
Called up the homies and I'm askin' [Em]y'all
"Which park, are y'all playin' basket[D]ball?"
Get me on the court and I'm trouble
[Em]Last week, fucked around
and got a triple double
[D]Freakin' niggas every way like M.J.
[Em]I can't believe, today was a good day

[Interlude 1]
[D](shit)[Em][D][Em]

[Verse 2]
[D]Drove to the pad and hit the showers
Didn't even [Em]get no static from the cowards
'Cause just yester[D]day them fools
tried to blast me
[Em]Saw the police
and they rolled right past [D]me
No flexin', didn't even look
in a [Em]nigga's direction
As I ran the intersection
[D]Went to Short Dog's house,
they was watchin' Yo! M[Em]tv Raps
What's the haps on the craps?
[D]Shake 'em up, shake 'em up,
shake 'em up, shake 'em
[Em]Roll 'em in a circle of niggas
and watch me break 'em
With the [D]7, 7-11, 7-[Em]11 7,
even back do' Little [D]Joe
I picked up the cash flow
[Em]Then we played bones,
and I'm yellin', "Domino"
[D]Plus nobody I know
got killed in South [Em]Central L.A.

[Interlude 2]
Today was a good day
[D](shit)[Em][D][Em]

[Verse 3]
[D]Left my nigga's house paid (what)
Picked [Em]up a girl
been tryna fuck since the twelfth grade
[D]It's ironic, I had the bre[Em]w,
she had the chronic
The Lakers beat the Supersonics
[D]I felt on the big fat fanny
[Em]Pulled out the jammy, and killed the punanny
[D]And my dick runs deep, so deep,
[Em]so deep put her ass to sleep
[D]Woke her up around one
She didn't hesi[Em]tate
to call Ice Cube the top gun
[D]Drove her to the pad and I'm coasting
Took another [Em]sip of the potion,
hit the three-wheel motion
[D]I was glad everything had worked out
[Em]Dropped her ass off
and then chirped out
[D]Today was like
one of those fly dreams
[Em]Didn't even see a berry
flashing those high beams
[D]No helicopter looking for a mur[Em]der
Two in the morning got the Fat[D]burger
Even saw the lights of the Goodyear [Em]Blimp
And it read "Ice Cube's a pimp" (yeah)
[D]Drunk as hell but no throwing up
[Em]Halfway home and my pager still blowing up
[D]Today I didn't even have
to use my A[Em]K

[Outro 1]
I gotta say it was a good day
[D](shit)[Em][D][Em]
[D][Em][D][Em]
[D][Em][D][Em]
