《Memphis City Blues (C&S Version)》歌词

[00:05:04] Memphis City Blues - 8Ball & MJG

[00:05:04] Said I got the blues

[00:05:04] Said I got the blues

[00:05:04] Memphis city blues

[00:05:04] Yeah, light up the green, watch me light up the room

[00:05:04] Watch me light up the mic, fat boy, be the truth

[00:05:04] Ni**a live and learn, learn the streets or get burned

[00:05:04] Niggas take what you earn, they be slick as a perm

[00:05:04] Man I try to be slicker, try to be cunning and quicker

[00:05:04] Try to be more than just another broke a** ni**a

[00:05:04] In this game of life, lose your life in the game

[00:05:04] Take a life full of pain, make you remember my name

[00:05:04] From the home of the blues, thought I paid my dues

[00:05:04] It's hard to fill my shoes, imitators abuse

[00:05:04] I just love the music, like my heart and my brain

[00:05:04] Couldn't live without it, that's impossible man

[00:05:04] I'm unstoppable man, from the bottom I came

[00:05:04] Niggas scratching for bread, stumbled up on the fame

[00:05:04] Humble niggas with game, shut yo' mouth up and listen

[00:05:04] Recognize, it's a blessing, thankful just to be living

[00:05:04] I got the Memphis City Blues

[00:05:04] Ooo, I could feel it now

[00:05:04] The neighborhood pimps introduced us to pimping

[00:05:04] And everybody we know used to play in them streets

[00:05:04] Oh man, oh man, oh man

[00:05:04] I got the Memphis City Blues

[00:05:04] Ooo, I could feel it now

[00:05:04] The neighborhood pimps introduced us to pimping

[00:05:04] (This is how they put it down)

[00:05:04] Everybody we know used to play in them streets

[00:05:04] (We know)

[00:05:04] Oh man, oh man, oh man

[00:05:04] I had the Memphis City Jones running through my bones

[00:05:04] Way, way back with A+ beepers and gray phones

[00:05:04] Even further back when I was just playing around the yard

[00:05:04] Riding bikes and sh*t, falling and getting my legs scarred

[00:05:04] In the music city, Memphis Tenn, they turned me into this

[00:05:04] My dad and a couple of my friends, they played instruments

[00:05:04] And when we used to roll to school at 16

[00:05:04] We bumped sh*t like Bobby Womack and Al Green

[00:05:04] Hell, I knew most of the old school sh*t from front to end

[00:05:04] I would start to memorize, four fives at age 10

[00:05:04] I come from a city where R&B run deep

[00:05:04] And the blues was the music that paved the whole street

[00:05:04] It was only natural that we would take the torch and run wit it

[00:05:04] Be serious, but still have a little fun wit it

[00:05:04] MJG, from a town that runs real deep

[00:05:04] Ask B.B. King and Isaac Hayes on Bill Street

[00:05:04] I got the Memphis City Blues

[00:05:04] Ooo, I could feel it now

[00:05:04] The neighborhood pimps introduced us to pimping

[00:05:04] And everybody we know used to play in them streets

[00:05:04] Oh man, oh man, oh man

[00:05:04] I got the Memphis City Blues

[00:05:04] Ooo, I could feel it now

[00:05:04] The neighborhood pimps introduced us to pimping

[00:05:04] (This is how they put it down)

[00:05:04] Everybody we know used to play in them streets

[00:05:04] (We know)

[00:05:04] Oh man, oh man, oh man

[00:05:04] Yeah, on that pimping man, me and G was born and raised

[00:05:04] Commodores, O Jays, Frankie Beverly and Maze

[00:05:04] Windows rolled down, no AC cause the gas low

[00:05:04] Bread at a minimum, but still we found a place to go

[00:05:04] North to the South at my ni**a house, chiefing out

[00:05:04] Skipping school, learning what the Memphis City Blues 'bout

[00:05:04] Me and G and a whole bunch of others

[00:05:04] Had a rocky road to travel just to make the world love us

[00:05:04] 'Cause it's the Memphis City, really to call it itty bitty

[00:05:04] Would be an understatement

[00:05:04] We got big a**, cash, and titties

[00:05:04] Big pimping working and hurt, the pockets of big tippers

[00:05:04] Side dippers and big jails to hide niggas

[00:05:04] But we stayed out, hard times, we prayed bout 'em

[00:05:04] Ni**a step up talking that sh*t and I laid out 'em

[00:05:04] MJG rappin' the Memphis Tennie, you and I could feel it

[00:05:04] Pass me some of the henny

[00:05:04] I got the Memphis City Blues

[00:05:04] Ooo, I could feel it now

[00:05:04] The neighborhood pimps introduced us to pimping

[00:05:04] And everybody we know used to play in them streets

[00:05:04] Oh man, oh man, oh man

[00:05:04] I got the Memphis City Blues

[00:05:04] Ooo, I could feel it now

[00:05:04] The neighborhood pimps introduced us to pimping

[00:05:04] (This is how they put it down)

[00:05:04] And everybody we know used to play in them streets

[00:05:04] (We know)

[00:05:04] Oh man, oh man, oh man
