Oh, ha ha
Man, all bitches be tryin' to run a funky ass game
They be like way out with that ol' shit man
I know, man what's up
You ever hook up with that bitch E hooked you up with
No man but I ran into this ol' school bitch though
Man she tried to run that same ol' shit
Man check it out
[B-Legit]
Bumped into a bitch named Candy
Met her late nigh, kind of perved off brandy
Dick on numb and I was strikin' the o's
And that's the same bitch that wants to fuck my mo's
Pass the chance, I wanna bone the bitch
I gave her my number with the code 0-6
I told her to call when the nights get cold
And maybe she can ride on the three times gold
Game much colder than a twenty below
Cause baby beeped back and was ready to go
Now my nigga told me when I'm in pursuit
It's nathin' but Lance open after two
So I hops in my Cut and I'm about tah
Take this bitch to my house-ah
No she ain't comin' from Legitimate B
Cause hoes to me is tramp d's
And that's a tramp nigga, a straight up bitch
Fuckin' with Legit cause she figure I'm rich
But I'm just to make her dome swoll
Wait till I get her in the day room
The day room man where I get the draws
Bang the walls cause it ain't no laws
Because soon as I get her I'ma spank her
Hit it real hard then I shank her
[B-Legit talking]
Ah yeah, she one of them late night hoes
One of them late night broads man, it's two in the morning ya know
Ah, I already know the program I know why shit is
Yeah I ran her pants ya know
Ha ha ha
[B-Legit]
And Candy was a bitch like dandy
Diggin' for gold, with a kid buyin' Huggies by the boat load
Black shear shirt with the see-through sleeves
Thicker than a block of that government cheese
She used to have a man but he's up state
Snuck when I callher but I stay
And dude'll never ever see baby again
She needs another nigga to giver her some ends
So I peeps game and plays the role
And tell her how good she'll look in some gold
That must have been it, her magical spot
Cause after that have baby straight on top
Ridin' askin' if Legit can mack
And I was tryin' to give the bitch brain damage
She can keep fuckin' Legitimate B
Cause hoes to me is tramd d's
And that's a tramp nigga, a straight up bitch
Fuckin' with Legit cause she figure I'm rich
But I'm just to make her dome swoll
Wait till I get her in the day room
[B-Legit talking]
Day room
Yeah day room
Shit
Really don't know what the day room about though
Yeah, you'll have to tell me
Tell me about that
[B-Legit]
The day room man where I'm gettin' the draws
And baby tryin' to strip paint off the walls
Bashed the bitch and hittin' it swell
Holdin' on to her fake ponytail
A nigga like Legit straight tore shit up
Hit it from the back and dropped a nut in her gut
And that's about the time that the shit had changed
The tramp dog bitch started runnin' her game
About bein' depressed, down and out
And havin' no mail in her bank account
But all I can do when I listen to that
Is give her a biggie and find a sack
Meet me at the track about 3: 15
And we can talk about makin' us some green
Give me a call, the Hillside Hog
But bitch you'll still be a tramp dog
[B-Legit talking]
Yeah, it's like this though man
I played the game with bitches right, right
It's like this the first one comes wins ya know, right
And I'm undefeated, undefeated ha ha
And it's like this if the bitch don't cum when I cum
Then she cum when I come back
Oh like that, like that
Ya know what I'm sayin' right
If she want mail she ain't gettin' shit
Bitch you better get a job, or something
Ya know, bitch
Yeah so I come through the drive-thru
And you don't say shit bitch
McDonald's, Burger King what not Taco Bell
Really want the check though, ol' bitch
You owe me ya buck bitch
That's my money, ha ha ha
Motherfucker come off that shit
Look she got five sixty
Oh a real ho
Nigga that's rent at the Hillside Terrace
What I say, that's what I'm talkin' about
Hey man but now I'm gone
Hey man but find some hoes we can hook up with later on
Like that
Yeah, call the bitches back
Well I'll get 'em though
The Click's Tramp Dogs tells the story of B-Legit meeting a woman named Candy in the late night, who he describes as a tramp dog. She is persistent in her pursuit of him and he eventually decides to take her home, knowing her reputation. The song features a lot of vulgar language as B-Legit describes his sexual encounter with her in graphic detail. He later refers to her as a tramp dog again, suggesting that this is all she is good for, and tells her to meet him later to "talk about making some green."
The song seems to portray women as objects to be used for sex and discarded, with no regard for their feelings or wellbeing. The repetitive use of the term "tramp dog" reinforces this idea and perpetuates negative stereotypes of women. The lyrics and language of the song may be offensive to many listeners, particularly women.
Interestingly, The Click's Tramp Dogs was heavily sampled in the popular song Regulate by Warren G and Nate Dogg. Additionally, the song was sampled by Notorious B.I.G. in his track Runnin' (Dying to Live), and by Tyler, the Creator in his song GONE, GONE / THANK YOU.

Game much colder than a twenty below
I am playing the game smarter than the average person
Cause baby beeped back and was ready to go
She responded and was interested in having sex
Now my nigga told me when I'm in pursuit
My friend advised me how to handle the situation
It's nathin' but Lance open after two
Only thing open after 2 AM is a Lance, which is slang for vagina
No she ain't comin' from Legitimate B
She is not my girlfriend
Cause hoes to me is tramp d's
I treat women who sleep with me poorly
And that's a tramp nigga, a straight up bitch
She is a promiscuous woman who sleeps around
Fuckin' with Legit cause she figure I'm rich
She wants to sleep with me because she thinks I am wealthy
But I'm just to make her dome swoll
I am only going to have sex with her
Wait till I get her in the day room
Wait until I have sex with her
The day room man where I get the draws
The place where I have sex with women
Bang the walls cause it ain't no laws
Having loud sex because there are no rules
Because soon as I get her I'ma spank her
As soon as I have sex with her, I am going to punish her
Hit it real hard then I shank her
Have sex aggressively and selfishly with her
One of them late night hoes
A promiscuous woman who is awake at night ready to have sex
Black shear shirt with the see-through sleeves
A woman wearing a black sheer shirt with see-through sleeves
Thicker than a block of that government cheese
She has a curvy figure
She used to have a man but he's up state
She has a boyfriend but he is in prison
Snuck when I callher but I stay
She answers my calls when her boyfriend is not around
So I peeps game and plays the role
I assess the situation and act accordingly
And tell her how good she'll look in some gold
Flatter her and compliment her looks
Ridin' askin' if Legit can mack
Having sex and asking if I am good at it
And I was tryin' to give the bitch brain damage
Trying to have rough sex with her
The tramp dog bitch started runnin' her game
The promiscuous woman started to play tricks on me
About bein' depressed, down and out
Complaining about her life situation
And havin' no mail in her bank account
She has no money in her bank account
But all I can do when I listen to that
I can do nothing but listen to her complaints
Is give her a biggie and find a sack
Give her drugs to cope with her problems
Meet me at the track about 3: 15
Meet me at the racetrack at 3:15 PM
But bitch you'll still be a tramp dog
Even after this, you will still be promiscuous
I played the game with bitches right, right
I played the game of having sex with women correctly
It's like this the first one comes wins ya know, right
The first person to have sex is the winner
And I'm undefeated, undefeated ha ha
I am successful at having sex with women
And it's like this if the bitch don't cum when I cum
If the woman doesn't orgasm when I do
Then she cum when I come back
She will orgasm when I have sex with her again
If she want mail she ain't gettin' shit
If she wants money, she won't get anything
Bitch you better get a job, or something
Get a job to support yourself instead of relying on me
Ya know, bitch
You know what I mean
Oh a real ho
A truly promiscuous woman
Nigga that's rent at the Hillside Terrace
The amount of money she owes me is a lot
Hey man but find some hoes we can hook up with later on
Find some women we can have sex with in the future
