Belvedere in the rear of the club
Pulled up on dubs and we 'bout to go and buy the bar up (haha)
So soulful, sure we ain't playin' (uh-uh)

Some jiggy and some straight grindin' (yeah)
All up in the club just to have a good time (oh)

Can you show me where that party at, dirty? (Uh)
Somewhere where it's crackin' right around one-thirty (uh-huh)
Never get there too early
Come in as is (ayy), du-rags and Timbs (hahaha)
I'm rollin' past his (ayy, uh), his little Jag' and Benz
With the Rolls, not the one with the stem, the one with the rims
The one that seem to make more enemies than friends
I'm slidin' in past doors (oh), both eyes closed (uh-huh)
Both arms rose (oh), both charms froze
With the S-O-S-O, D-E-dot-F (So So Def)
We buyin' bottles, bottles, until there ain't none left (uh-uh)
I'm quick to go left (yo), I plays with no ref

You know I can't forget about my thugs (thugs)

Crazy to think this was 13 years ago! This was THE song. Feel good hit. 1999-2005 was magical musically. Kinda fell flat after that.

@ddog388112

Umm no. Before 1999 was great where you had Biggie, Pac, Nas, NWA, Wu-Tan, Snoop Dogg. After 04 when Music became shitty

@Konykonykony

@kttorro5454
