Good Thing We're Rappin

Digital Underground

Alright parents go head tuck the kids in PG time is over



This goes out to all the macks in the industry..



Huh alright roll the tape...



(..yo rest day ain't for hoes..)



It's a good thing that we're rappin



If it wasn't for the rappin we'd be mackin



It's a good thing that we're rappin



If it wasn't for the rappin we'd be mackin



It's a good thing that we're rappin



There was a time when they called me Smooth Eddie



Playing the hoes and shook the red card steady



It was Mike to those that knows



Matter of fact, Icy Mike cause he was cold on them hoes



We was east coast niggas headin west



I was rollin shotgun, coolin with my man fresh Wes



The royal blue Brogham was a drop top rag



You could tell we was pimps from the Las Vegas tags



Cause that's how we flipped it



Hit a lick, paid cash, said nothin, pimp shit



All of this was around spring eighty one



I was in the life and had a good three year run



Anyway, one friday on the side of the road in L.A.



My man Wes says hey, "I got a bitch in San Diego"



"Cool", I said, "I'll see ya in a coupla days



I'm gonna stay and play some L.A. hoes"



He said, "alright player yo, I'll see you soon"



Yeah that's how real players kick it see there ain't no rules



We roll from city to city, like kids playing hookie



Later that night I knock a bitch named Cookie



She says, "I love you and I want to make you rich"



I says, "oh yeah", I swear I worked the shit out this bitch



She was fine too, niggas couldn't tell me nothin



Had brains too, did more stealin than fucking



A real thoroughbred, played con like a pro



Man I'm tryin to tell you I had a money makin ho
