With the fam
Tommy Tee Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah,
Squizzy,
South Bronx,
Where we at
Oslo,
Ok
Check it The all knowing, all glowing,
Sons of the globe been jets all bowing
For the drop I got a fetish,
I get a rush when my hands touch the lettuce,
We big Macs, special orders don't upset us,
Ladies treat us like chinchillas and pet us,
Don't matter what continent or hemisphere,
I speak precise you understand when it's clear,
The macaroni I smack a phony,
Back a homie ex'es come back to bomie,
Mean swagging jeans sagging,
Lean bragging in that cue five mean wagon,
Dead wrong I'm head strong,
Fuck with diam's we like to get hating long,
So baby see me after the show,
Or stay put if you after the dough,
You know.
[Hook: Devin The Dude]
If you see me in the club you know,
The police gonna spot my shine,
If you see me in the streets yo,
A nigga's all about my crime,
If you see me anywhere at all,
You know I'm just trying to get by,
With The Fam.
[Verse 2: Tommy Tee]
A short motherfucker, and large motherfuckers,
We grown men your moms wanna fuck us,
Puff on the keiths go nuts on the beats,
So sweet getting puff from the police,
Kicks are stoldees snares are bottom,
Don't ask for beats if you can't afford 'em,
Dude I'm on 'em heading for the big checks,
With a couple of big hits you know how that shit gets,
Bangin on the mac put my bangers on the map,
The plaque's hanging in the back, Studio is dirty,
Maybe cause of the fact I never kept it clean in that shit since I was
Thirty,
It's Tee and the band Sugarhill and the Gang,
(With the fam), Just me and the fam,
It's Tee and the band Sugarhill and the Gang, wifey in the back,
(With the fam), Just me and the fam.
[Hook: Devin The Dude]
If you see me in the club you know,
The police gonna spot my shine,
If you see me in the streets yo,
A nigga's all about my crime,
If you see me anywhere at all,
You know I'm just trying to get by,
With The Fam.
X2
If you see me in the studio,
With The Fam,
If you see me in the studio,
With The Fam,
If you see me in the studio,
With The Fam,
If you see me in the studio,
With The Fam.
