Ain't Nothing But a G Thang
Dr. Dre&Snoop Dogg Lyrics

One, two, three and to the fo'
Counting up to four to start the song.

Snoop Doggy Dogg and Dr. Dre is at the do'
Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre are ready to perform.

Ready to make an entrance, so back on up ('Cause you know about to rip shit up)
They're about to perform and their audience should be ready for the upcoming act.

Gimme the microphone first, so I can bust like a bubble
Dr. Dre wants to perform first and set the tone.

Compton and Long Beach together, now you know you in trouble
They're from two different neighborhoods but come together to create something amazing.

Ain't nothin' but a "G" thang, baby! Two loc'ed out niggas so we're crazy! Death Row is the label that pays me! Unfadeable, so please don't try to fade this (Hell yeah)
They are proud of their work and their label, and nobody can stop them.

But uh, back to the lecture at hand Perfection is perfected, so I'ma let 'em understand From a young G's perspective And before me dig out a bitch I have to find a contraceptive You never know she could be earnin' her man And learnin' her man, and at the same time burnin' her man Now you know I ain't with that shit, Lieutenant Ain't no pussy good enough to get burnt while I'm up in it (Yeah) And that's realer than Real-Deal Holyfield
Dr. Dre is sharing his perspective as a young man, emphasizing the importance of practicing safe sex and avoiding women who are in relationships.

And now you hooka's and ho's know how I feel Well if it's good enough to get broke off a proper chunk I'll take a small piece of some of that funky stuff
He's clarifying his viewpoint on sex and willing to engage if the conditions are acceptable.

It's like this and like that and like this and uh It's like that and like this and like that and uh It's like this and like that and like this and uh Dre, creep to the mic like a phantom
They're rapping and getting the audience going as Dr. Dre takes center stage.

Well I'm peepin', and I'm creepin', and I'm creep-in' But I damn near got caught, 'cause my beeper kept beepin'
Dr. Dre is focused on his performance but nearly gets distracted by his beeper.

Now it's time for me to make my impression felt So sit back, relax, and strap on your seatbelt You never been on a ride like this before With a producer who can rap and control the maestro At the same time with the dope rhyme that I kick You know, and I know, I flow some ol' funky shit To add to my collection, the selection Symbolizes dope, take a toke, but don't choke If you do, you'll have no clue On what me and my homey Snoop Dogg came to do
Dr. Dre is hyping up the audience for their performance and shares his skillset as both a rapper and producer.

And who gives a fuck about those? So just chill, 'til the next episode
They don't care about haters and will continue their work. They're asking the audience to relax and wait for more.

Fallin' back on that ass, with a hellified gangsta lean Gettin' funky on the mic like a ol' batch of collard greens
Snoop Dogg is rapping with passion and energy.

It's the capital S, oh yes I'm fresh, N double-O P D O double-G Y, D O double-G, ya see Showin' much flex when it's time to wreck a mic Pimpin' hoes and clockin' a grip like my name was Dolomite
Snoop Dogg is introducing himself, showcasing his skill as a rapper, and bragging about his lifestyle.

Yeah, and it don't quit I think they in the mood for some motherfuckin' G shit (Hell yeah) So Dre, (What up Dog?) Gotta give 'em what they want (What's that, G?) We gotta break 'em off somethin' (Hell yeah) And it's gotta be bumpin' (City of Compton!)
Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre know what their audience wants, and they will provide it.

It's where it takes place, so when asked, yo' attention Mobbin' like a motherfucker, but I ain't lynchin' Droppin' the funky shit that's makin' the sucker niggas mumble When I'm on the mic, it's like a cookie, they all crumble Try to get close, and your ass'll get smacked My motherfuckin' homie Doggy Dogg has got my back Never let me slip, 'cause if I slip, then I'm slippin' But if I got my Nina, then you know I'm straight trippin' And I'ma continue to put the rap down, put the mack down And if your bitches talk shit, I'll have to put the smack down Yeah, and you don't stop I told you I'm just like a clock when I tick and I tock But I'm never off, always on, to the break of dawn C-O-M-P-T-O-N, and the city they call Long Beach Puttin' the shit together Like my nigga D.O.C., "No One Can Do It Better"
