Tone Lōc, Kenyatta - Funky Westside lyrics

(aw yeah, huh)

(UH) One-two, one-two
Oh my God! Tone-Loc, where you been?

Ohhh shhhitit's a miracle
Hey, hey whatcha gotta do, whatcha gotta do
Check it out, holmes

BO-BOladies and gentlemonit is time for
Me to introduce to you
The grandmaster, the MC
That 'oes from coast to coast
The gggrandwizard, The Man, The Myth
Tone Smith but ? known as, Tone-Loc!
Yo LOCOi wan you to rip it up for 'em, mon!
Tell us what it's all a-boutrip
It away from? bloodclots
And do it for the westsyyyyde

I do believe the year was 1966


A young brother was brought up in the mix
And ever since that day was born
Like a mother from a baby
He could never be torn
From the neighborhood that taught him so much
I'da hustle and chill
And surviving the clutch
And if you didn't know
I'm talkin' 'bout the best side
Where the tribe reside on that Westside
This ain't Bed-Stuy
But it's like "Do or Die"
Contemplatin' suicide to ride by
Homicides, and then it's ova (ova, ova)
No rabbit's for the four leaf clover
Everything is everything
Just mind yo' buis-ness
And when I handle mine, I leave no witness
So when you're walkin'
Aim straight and keep goin'
The rhymes are?gumblin'? and the
Tribe is still, flowin'
Fo' deep in the G-ride (G-ide, G-ride)
Tryna make it, to the funky-ass Westside

To the funky-ass Westside
(Westside, Westside)

Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Na na na naaa ahhha-aahh
C'mon! Lemme hear you say
Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Na na naa naaahh ahhhh

I I I remember the dayys, as a tee-ager
Before the hypeness, of a sky pager
It was +Happy Days, + now +Who's The Boss?+
Instead of The Shuffle
We was doin' El Lacoss
And it was easy to catch a girl solo
Bust out the gigolo, but showed the polo
Before you thought we was coooold freakin'
BIG grindin', dancin' cheek to cheek and
Steal a kiss and you know I'm all excited!
Until the point where I can't even hide it
And when you know, someone stepped on my shoe
And why they do that? And I
Done had too many blues
I tried, real hard, to stay cool and calm
He didn't say, "Excuse me" so I had to BOMB
Lookin' at his ?, I was only upset!
So I get, betta watch the step
(watch the step)
On the funky-funky Westside (Westside)

It's a funky-funky Westside

For the OGs' and dawgs, know what I'm sayin'?
Fo' the insanesto?all the rocks?
To all the Locs'

IIII I I I I I shot the sher-IFF (yeah I did)
But I did not shoot no deputy (Nah)
Ohhh no, NOOOOOOO (I didn't chalk him)
I said, I I I shot the sher-IFF
(yeah, I shot him)
But I did not shoot, no deputy
(ain't shoot no deputy) ohhh no, NOOOOOOOO

Illusions of the world and my
Mind begin to twirl
Thinkin' 'bout a wife, a lil' boy and a girl
You can do this when your pockets are fat
Not skinny and at this point of time
I ain't makin' a penny
Hard times of it, so I gotta get my slang on
Back on The Ave
Where I used to get my bang on
Homies all around, still?pullin'? llicks
Ain't worry 'bout a thang from Officer Dick
Yo they get theirs, so I gotta get mine
Knowin' damn well the risks of doin' time
To run this city, was the master plan
Yo I breathed the Aves, the block
The streets like a diaphragm
Times have changed
But I still scrap for mine (MINE)
That's how I'm livin' on the Westside

That's how I'm livin' on the Westside
(Westside)

On the Westside

To the funky-ass Westside
(Westside, Westside)
