Bab's strong arm chicks like I'm hercules
You got a problem, come see the girl, I'll solve 'em
Big belly women we starve 'em
Dudes in the hood, we rob 'em wheneva they flawcin'
Betta tuck in ya chain dude and keep on walkin'
You a thug, why you keep on talkin let's get it crackin'
Get ya girl stomped ou in the club, I make it happen

[chorus (Ness):]
All I hear is Bad Boy this and Bad Boy that, Bad Boy will beat you down wit a baseball bat

[Ness]
Imma changed man since I made the band
Nobody - gave a damn, no-one gave a hand
Made man, made the band, wave ya hands
Rocks in the watch, I think I'm bout to blaze the band
Elliot Ness, you know I'm here to save the land
Don't try to lie and say the liquor is what made you ran (whooo)
Go somewhere and be a maintnence man, a janitor

[Chorus (Chopper):]
All I hear is Bad Boy this and Bad Boy that,
Bad Boy will beat you down wit a baseball bat

There he go, hoppin' out the G-5 wagon

Runnin' game on ya chick, ya boy's a pimp
I need the ones wit no type of common sense (that about it)
If you bout it then throw it up
Got that fire and you ready to light it then tote it up
Now that's gangsta, don't make me spank ya
You - run in that water now ya life is in danger
Ride wit the underworld, them key bangers
Soldeir that be off that frail, them beef bringers
Picture a clown tryin' to carry me
It won't happen, I won't let you haters worry me
Imma stay thugged out till they bury me
When they do, I can;t wait to see buried be
Imma dirty south boy from the dirty steets
Get krunk, get buck, get the hell off ya feet
