Nelly Lyrics

Mmmmm you can find me in St. Louie
I'm from St. Louis and this is where I can be found.

Where the gun play ring all day (nanana)
There's constant gun violence in St. Louis.

Some got jobs and some sell yea'
Some people have legitimate jobs, while others sell drugs.

Others just smoke and fuck all day
Others spend their days smoking and having sex.

St. Louis is home to famous comedians like Red Fox and Ced the Entertainer.

Jettin off with Brian Cox, I'll see ya later
I'm leaving to hang out with Brian Cox.

Maybe not cuz I got somethin hot
I may not leave because I have something else to do.

In the Navigator, waitin in the parkin lot
I'm waiting in my Navigator in a parking lot.

A Bad Boy, on a Ryde Ruff-er than The LOX
I'm a bad boy riding rougher than the hip-hop group The LOX.

I keep 'em both cocked, nina and sabrina

Catch me in the Galleria, Plaza of Chesterfield

Rollin down Hanley Hills, in a black Sedan Deville

I used to love it when they hit me for a rocker
I used to enjoy when people would ask me for drugs.

Maybe a bopper, I kept it proper
I would sell drugs to those who asked, but I never got too involved.

A non-stopper, around the clock-a
I was constantly selling drugs.

Now it's cool to pull up the Benz and helicopta, uh
Now I have achieved success and can afford a Benz and helicopter.

Sunday mornin, crack of dawn and I'm yawnin
On a Sunday morning, I wake up early and feel tired.

Natural Bridge and Kingshighway is where I'm goin
I'm headed to the intersection of Natural Bridge and Kingshighway.

Wake up man and start blowin
I wake up and start smoking marijuana.

Gotta get those juices flowin
I need to get myself going for the day.

Now I'm gonna tell ya one more time
Let me repeat myself.

For you cats that just ain't knowin
For those of you who don't know.

In the hole with me Fetty and Leezy gettin swoll
I am in the gym working out with my friends Fetty and Leezy.

Grabbin the Optimo, sharpin up my flow

Practicin for my shows, that's usually how it goes
I'm practicing for my music performances.

We be ready to go, the chronic already rolled

The one who's gettin where he at and he showed you who was the boss

I'm like a human hot sauce
I bring a lot of energy and flavor to everything I do, like hot sauce.

Thinkin I'll burn your thoughts
My music will make you think and feel strong emotions.

Your information was false
What you thought about me and my music was wrong.

I'll show you just what it costs
I will prove to you how great my music is.

In the M I crooked letter crooked letter O U R I
This is a reference to the spelling of Missouri.

No one could do it better, hey

Now in the middle we keep it crunk and jiggy
In the middle of our music performances, we keep the energy high and the dancing energetic.

I'm strong and tough, like a dog.

Call me Snoopy, another famous dog.

You wouldn't have caught me in a run-down car.

And when the heat come down
When the police come after us.

We need to run away quickly (God bless us).

Loax with us, just how he jokes with us
Loax is hanging out with us and making jokes as usual.

My daddy told me that I'm supposed to bust
My dad told me I'm destined to succeed.

Don't be provokin us
Don't make us angry.

It ain't no joke in us
We're not joking around.

Just the North, South, East, West coast, and us
There are only five places in the US that matter: the coasts and St. Louis.
