Lil’ Keke
Money in the City
[Intro: Tre Virdure]
To all my n***as out here gettin' money in the city
To all my ladies out here gettin' money in the city
Put your hands up (hands up) if you wit it
Put your hands up (hands up) if you wit it

[Chorus: Tre Virdure (Lil Keke, Slim Thug & Paul Wall)]
Gettin' money in the city
(When I scream Southside
I chunk up the deuce, then I scream Southside)
Gettin' money in the city
(I'mma rep mine with pride
Until the day I die, it's forever Northside)
Gettin' money in the city
(We can't be denied
I ride for my city and I rep my side)
Gettin' money in the city (city)
City (city)
City (city)
City!

[Verse 1: Lil Keke]
H-O-U-S-T-O-N
The moment that I stepped in this game, I played to win
I'm a OG, homie been gettin' it since back then
Set the city on fire, then I came back again
Let's go hustle for money, I want mo'
Got purple by the pound, got drank, got blow
Move slow, this candy machine is so mean
I'ma chunk up the deuce reppin' 713
I'm clean, I'm nice, on a new paper route
Had some dirt up on my shoulder but it got wiped off
I'm a Don, Texas my home, that's where I'm from
I belong up top next to Scarface and Bun
A lot of people hatin', but I'm cool with that
They said H-Town was finished, but the fool is back
They've been waitin' on this album for two years strong
The street dream on the way, drop this and I'm gone!
[Chorus: Tre Virdure (Lil Keke, Slim Thug & Paul Wall)]
Gettin' money in the city
(When I scream Southside
I chunk up the deuce, then I scream Southside)
Gettin' money in the city
(I'mma rep mine with pride
Until the day I die, it's forever Northside)
Gettin' money in the city
(We can't be denied
I ride for my city and I rep my side)
Gettin' money in the city (city)
City (city)
City (city)
City!

[Verse 2: Slim Thug]
It's Thug Boss, spokesman for the North
Reppin' H-Town, all wins, no loss
See, I was taught to get it at all costs
Ain't drop in three years, still survivin' them droughts
Gettin' money, still hit the boy up when it's sunny
Makin' half-steppers run from me
When they see me pull out that train I'ma bring the pain
Then swang and bang and try to come off the frame
I'm a vet up in this game, remember my name
Since I came in '98, I've been gettin' my change
Slim Thugga, muthafucka, Boss of the South
The one with the chain costs more than your house
The boy with the blue on everything with gloss
Every time you see me, new superstar spokes
Yeah, playa, she with me, dime so pretty
You ain't heard the word? We gettin' money in the city!
[Chorus: Tre Virdure (Lil Keke, Slim Thug & Paul Wall)]
Gettin' money in the city
(When I scream Southside
I chunk up the deuce, then I scream Southside)
Gettin' money in the city
(I'mma rep mine with pride
Until the day I die, it's forever Northside)
Gettin' money in the city
(We can't be denied
I ride for my city and I rep my side)
Gettin' money in the city (city)
(We gettin' money, partner!)
City (city)
City (city)
(We gettin' money in the city!)
City!

[Verse 3: Paul Wall]
Well, it's the Lone Star cat stackin', chasin' that cake
I want them chips and that bread, put it all on my plate
I go and get it when it's late, the hustle never stops
That's why the money rollin' up like Hunter Pence socks
Like Watts I chop it up on Tidwell with the G's
With C-Dawg on South Park posted up like trees
The corners on Goldbank and the block's a 5'9
Put my points up on my wrist, then Kobe in clutch time
I'm slidin' down Hailey Street, contemplatin' my chess move
With screens hangin' like paintings up in the Louvre
I was caught up in the hype, tryin' to put fame first
But now I'm back on the paper route, Lockwood to Hurst
I'm searchin' for paper from [?] to Scott Street
My grind ain't stoppin' 'til I'm underground six feet
A go-getter with big dough, and big homie
Runnin' corners like Mike Bourne, the whole city know we
Gettin' money, partner!
[Outro: Tre Virdure]
To all my n***as out here gettin' money in the city
To all my ladies out here gettin' money in the city
Put your hands up (hands up) if you wit it
Put your hands up (hands up) if you wit it
To all my n***as out here gettin' money in the city
To all my ladies out here gettin' money in the city
Put your hands up (hands up) if you wit it
Put your hands up (hands up) if you wit it
Yeah!
