Lady Wray, Redman, Missy Elliott - No Joke (Mama Used To Say) lyrics

Yo, yo, yo, yo dawg i got shirts that say
"Don't ask me for shit!"
Y'all birds trickin', buy me the print
Me and Rockwilder got even friends
That'll pop yo neck before the evening ends
It's Friday and today it's the day
That I cash the check
And I'ma burn it all on my weed connect
You don't got 10 on it, I'll tap you later
Money like jheri curls, gotta activate ya
Who are you? thought it was a
Gorilla in a human suit
Made for money fly the coup
I won't spend a dime unless it's 1 to 9
Motel behind and not one in time
If you want some of the lime, here it is
Me and Nic in the hoop
Mama always said, "Boy get your own"
So, I got my own grown ass

If you're getting money and you
Tryna make a way
This is for my independent people
Gettin' off of work today
You gotta make your money cause you
Got them bills to pay
So, when you walk up in your job
Tell 'em move out your way
Cause my mama used to say

Get off your ass and
Do something with yourself
Cause you got to live your life
Don't live it for no one else
Stop begging from your friends
Stop asking time again
Cause you don't wanna be broke
Stop thinkin' that life's a joke

If the single players and all
The junk they say
You ask why they hatin' on you
When you're tryna make a way
Just keep on working
Cause you gotta get paid
While they sittin' on they ass
Tell 'em you are here to stay
My mama used to say

Get off your ass and
Do something with yourself
Cause you got to live your life
Don't live it for no one else
Stop begging from your friends
Stop asking time again
Cause you don't wanna be broke
Stop thinkin' that life's a joke

Ain't no stoppin' us now
We're on the move (No stoppin', no stoppin')
Ain't no stoppin' us now
We're on the move (No stoppin', no stoppin')

Get off your ass and
Do something with yourself
Cause you got to live your life
Don't live it for no one else
Stop begging from your friends
Stop asking time again
Cause you don't wanna be broke
Stop thinkin' that life's a joke
