Young Jeezy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Middle of the stage got the whole club rockin'
Nigga you can hate but ya bitch steady watchin'
Bet she cant do it on a dick, she poppin'
We bottle poppin', you cock blockin'
Told ya gurl you rap, but ya cd floppin'
You say you gettin' money man, we ain't seen nothin'
Ya gurl is persistent, she ain't stoppin'
Man she say she want a hood nigga
I keep the purp by the pound
The trunk stay bumpin, yall know we run the town
Hood nigga
And I keep a bad bitch around
Thick bitch, long hair, yellow, white, red, brown
Hood nigga
And my Chevy sittin on 24's
Flats look like flapjack, pancake you ain't know
Hood nigga
I'm a play the game how it go
They can take me out the hood
But I'm a keep it hood folk
And I don't need a scale for the work
I can eyeball purp, I am not you jerk
Hatin on me will make your situation worse
You don't wanna take a ride in that long black hearse
All eyes on me, shawty I'm a bomb first
I'm the truth and they say the truth hurts
Hustle mean hard work, hard work
If you scared go to church
Man this rap shit is easy, every beat I get I murk
'Cause I'm a hood nigga
I keep the purp by the pound
The trunk stay bumpin, y'all know we run the town
Hood nigga
And I keep a bad bitch around
Thick bitch, long hair, yellow, white, red, brown
Hood nigga
And my Chevy sittin on 24's
Flats look like flapjack, pancake you aint' know
Hood nigga
I'm a play the game how it go
They can take me out the hood
But I'm a keep it hood folk
Get like you,naw, get like me
Eveesus we don't rock white tees
Classic capris, but Knicks on my feet
Account with babe and apes, get a pair every week
Manasha 3, the gurls suck me to sleep
Z-o-e climax to the peak

You'll see ICU fuckin' with me
'Cause I'm a hood nigga
I keep the purp by the pound
The trunk stay bumpin', y'all know we run the town
Hood nigga
And I keep a bad bitch around
Thick bitch, long hair, yellow, white, red, brown
Hood nigga
And my Chevy sittin on 24's
Flats look like flapjack, pancake you ain't know
Hood nigga

They can take me out the hood
But I'm a keep it hood folk
Watchin out for goldiggers like kanye,
