Snow Tha Product Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Turn around, got your girlfriend turned out
I ain't tryna take your man, I'm tryna see what you about
If Trey can't do the job, Trish'll knock the pussy out
Got you checkin' if it's serious or checking if it's facts
Ex was a dog, bad bitches get the cat
Tell me if I'm wrong but you ain't happy where you at
'Cause girls wanna have fun, women wanna make stacks
Ooh, twenty-five, thirty-five, I hit
Forty-five, fifty-five roll the dice
Sixty-five, seventy-five that's right
It ain't trickin' if you got it and I got the green light, ooh
I don't want a half, bitch, I want the whole thing
I'm an itty bitty saditty bitch that go both ways
All I do is make plays, hit a lick and make waves
Take a flight on vacation and make things take place (tell 'em)
Ooh twenty-five, thirty-five, I hit
Forty-five, fifty-five roll the dice
Sixty-five, seventy-five that's right
It ain't trickin' if you got it and I got the green light, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Dicen que ellos no me creen que tan bonita y quito novias
Esta chula mami tumba todo, hagan memoria
Tengo barras y dinero tengo lo que quiero
Soy la pinche mera mera y hasta puto mero mero
Tengo práctica, yo tengo plática y esto no para
Tu novia me odia porque a to ya se te cae la baba
Para, déjale saber que es cosa rara
Que se me antoje un cuerno pero de qué es la empanada?
Quiere más, quiere más, ya, dale más, dale más o se te va
Quiere más, quiere más, ya, dale más, dale más o se te va
Look, I'm a big money spender and I make ya quite fast
Cold drinks, hot beaches and some white sand
Want the privileged life like a fucking white man
But I'm a cute Mexicana with a butter like tan
Lighter on the nightstand, higher than a kite
Damn, I just live the life man, I'm just being polite when
I be acting like I'm not the shit but cool as ice, yeah
Walk up in this bitch and they announce who I am
I throw twenty-five, thirty-five, I hit
Forty-five, fifty-five roll the dice
Sixty-five, seventy-five that's right
It ain't trickin' if you got it and I got yo' bitch right
