| Song | Gettin' It |
| Artist | Too Short |
| Album | The Mack of the Century... Greatest Hits |
| 作词 : Clinton, Collins, Cooper, Shaw ... | |
| That's right, album number ten, short dawg's in the house | |
| It's gettin close to the end y'all | |
| But we gonna kick it like this on the last album | |
| Verse one：too $hort | |
| Now let me holler at ya partner, spit this game | |
| In you ear for a minute, quit complaining | |
| Bout how you can't spend it cause you ain't got it | |
| You got what it takes but not enough to get started | |
| I hope you get the message, no it's not a test it's | |
| Just me ridin legit, they can't arrest me or bust me | |
| I'm still hungry, i want some more stuff | |
| Get fat and watch my whole crew blow up | |
| So get yours, and buy my new album | |
| Peep the game and don't be like calvin | |
| Get everything you want, get real, get you mail | |
| Get your girl to make bail and get your ass out of jail | |
| You should be gettin it, everything you want | |
| Everything you dreamed of, never have to front | |
| You shoulf be gettin it, gettin money | |
| I'm talking bout you black, don't laugh it aint funny | |
| You should get a good lawyer, like johnny cochran | |
| Swear to tell the truth, hell no i didn't pop him | |
| Get your kids in school, so they can get an education | |
| Get a degree, and take a vacation | |
| You see i got all my game from the streets of california | |
| Young millionaire with no high school diploma | |
| Livin real good, taking care of my folks | |
| Roll up a fat one for the players to smoke | |
| Short dawg in the house, i know you aint trippin | |
| Cause life is too $hort you gotta get in where you fit in | |
| Stop looking for what you never seem to find | |
| It ain't what you think you got to read between the lines | |
| Cause life ain't long, for a young black man | |
| Tryin to make money doing all he can | |
| Sellin dope don't ya hope he would go to classb | |
| But the boy makes money and he makes it fast | |
| With the twenties on top and the fifties on the bottom | |
| I fuck the top notches oh yes we got em | |
| It's been a long time since i first got down | |
| But i still keep makin these funky sounds | |
| Get your money man | |
| Get yours | |
| Chorus: p-funk | |
| You should be gettin it | |
| Get it while the gettin is good, get it while you can | |
| You should be gettin it | |
| Get it while the gettin is good (repeat as necessary) | |
| Verse two: too $hort | |
| I know you tired of being broke just hanging out | |
| You gotta lot a dreams but you can't get out | |
| The first thing you need to do is set your self some goals | |
| Think positive, everything else is old | |
| And work hard, never stop hustlin | |
| Cause they just love to see the black man strugglin | |
| (so what are you saying todd?) | |
| It's time to come up, put your dollar bills in the air | |
| He said meet me at the white house and i was there | |
| Cause i'm one in a million, black man rising | |
| They wanna keep me down but i always surprise em | |
| Spend my money in the hood, i know it's all good | |
| And you should do the same i told you peep the game | |
| Too $hort, you know i'm the man | |
| I lend my brother a hand cause i know i can | |
| I keep going and goin but i'm not the pink bunny | |
| I'm not beatin on a drum i never stop thinkin money | |
| I'm gettin all i can if you don't ya slip | |
| I can't wait to get to heaven just to have a grip | |
| When i was broke, i couldn't afford a meal | |
| But now i'm now rich i can't be fake i gots to keep it real | |
| It's been a long time baby since i first got down | |
| But it still keep making these funky sounds | |
| Chorus | |
| (i earned my respect in the street | |
| The ghetto's been good to me | |
| I'm never going to turn my back | |
| The true and living so i got to kick the facts) |
