• Sample Lyrics

  • So crack a bottle, let your body waddle
  • Don’t act like a snobby model
  • You just hit the lotto
  • Uh oh uh oh, b****es hopping in my Tahoe
  • Got one riding shotgun and no not one of them got gloves
  • Now where’s the rubbers? Whose got the rubbers?
  • I noticed there’s so many of them and there’s really not that many of us
  • Ladies love us and my posse’s kicking up dust
  • It’s on till the break of dawn and we’re starting this party from dusk
