[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
[E- 40] [C]I like
this Rick [D]Rock
[C5]I don't be

[Verse 2]
slackin in my [C]mackin,
I be [C5]doin it in a player fashion
Makin it happen, speaker[C]s slappin,
scootin [C5]and skatin and Cadillac'n
I be, representin my [C]region and pullin
[C5]up in somethin decent
Used to buy shit off the lot,
but now lately I've been leasin
Like the white man I've been thinkin,
tryin to come up with a plan
How to spend this dope money,
buy [C]some houses and [C5]some land
Tryin to teach you [C]niggaz somethin,
[C5]tryin to lace you like a shoe
Buy a couple of big Celebrities pimpin
[C]it ain't gotta be [C5]brand new
I'm a boss about [C]my shit,
about the [C5]way I carry it
The way I wear my glasses [C]low,
the way I [C5]sport my toothpick
The way I pop it at [C]a hoe,
the way [C5]I utilize my mouth
The way I keep my fuck[C]in blowover over
at [C5]a relative's house
Beware of yo' [F#m]sur roundings,
got[C5]ta handpick yo' cronies
Gotta be about [F#m]your allowance,
[C5]an d X out all the phonies
Gotta watch out for [C]them folks,
gotta [C5]watch yo' conversations
Gotta be careful on [F#m]the phones cause
them folks might [D]be taping
[Chorus] [F#m](Aww shit, talk in pig latin,

[Verse 3]
[F#m]
use the codes)
They might be taping
[D](Aww man,
[C5]you think they taping?)
Gotta be careful on the phones cause
them folks might [D]be taping
[F#m](Aww shit, they readin lips,
cover your nose)
They might be taping
[D](Naw man,
[C5]you think they taping?)
Gotta be careful on the phones cause
them folks might be taping
[E- 40] 40 {?} an ounce of [C]space,
ain't even had time to wash my face

[Verse 4]
[C]I been in
the traffic tryin to get it,
I ain't got time to fuckin waste
My money's short like I'm slippin,
I'm tryin to smack it up and flip it
I'm tryin to turn this thousand dollars
into a quarter of a mill' ticket
Some of you suckers be lyin to kick it,
[C5]but that ain't the fuckin way
Niggaz be sellin mo' [C]wolf tickets
than fake autographs [C5]on eBay
My [F#m]orangutangs'll growl,
with [C]our upside down [C5]smile
We been doin it for [C]a while,
you can [F#m]check my d- [C5]boy file
I be fuckin 'em up [C]like this man, I
be killin 'em off [C5]like that
Divin up in [C]them hoes mayne and treatin
them hoes [C5]like rats
Niggaz don't really [C]know that I'm so
sincere about [C5]this here
Niggaz don't really [C]know that I got
my name from drink[C5]in beer
[C]Do a cauliflowered ear,
[C5]me and my muskateers
Come through with [C]them choppers,
[F#m]let the lil' homey [C5]steer
I like to dress up in [C]my doctors,
cam[C5]ouflage my real career
But I'm really [C]packin woppers, pistols
rusty like Pam Grier
[D][F#m]

[Verse 5]
[Chorus]
[D][Interlude]
[C5]"Taping, taping,
[F#m]taping- taping- taping" [2X]
[E- 40] They might be taping
[D]"Taping, taping,
[C5]taping- taping- taping" [2X]
[E- 40] Gotta be careful on the phones cause
[D]them folks[F#m]
might be taping
[D][C5]

[Verse 6]
[E- 40]
I wish a [C]motherfucker would,
I'm still livin my [C5]second child[C]hood
My mentality, my frame of mind, [C5]all hood
I'm in [C]the local booth with my nine,
break[F#m]in down a back[C5]wood
[C]Sippin on 40, drink cloud nine,
try to get it while [C5]it's good
In the [C]heart of the soil, in the middle of the paint,
where [C5]it ain't
Where we [C]park our cars on the grass,
sell hop and push [C5]crank
[C]Where the dopefiends dig in our tracks
and siphon gas from [C5]our tanks
Where the biggest hypo[C]crites in the church
[F#m]call themselves s[C5]aints
I don't gossip like [C]bitches I mind
my own fuckin [C5]business
Dig yaper good [C]money cause that suck
[C5]er shit ain't nutritious
I don't be [C]burnin no bridges I'm a loy
[C]alist 'bout my [C5]riches
Gumbo pots [C]boil,
good with the [F#m]skillet like a [C5]chemist
Steady [C]long like a female weave,
[C]cooler [C5]than antifreeze
Bust you in the toe like Eddie
[C]Murphy [C5]did DeLouise
Act like you know what I repres[Cm]ent,
bitch [C5]please
That powdered milk section 8 and that government cheese,
[D]hoe[F#m]!

[Verse 7]
