Buttermilk Bottom
[Chorus]
Buttermilk Bottom (yeah)
Buttermilk Bottom
Buttermilk Bottom (oooh)
Buttermilk Bottom

[Verse 1]
Brothers and sisters getting drunk
Beer cans all out in the street
Scared to go to the greasy food
To get a bite to eat
Cause a [?] this morning
Had [?]
If you don't find a way to pay
Big Red gonna take your life
So you go around the corner
But ain't nobody there
Cause everybody's ducking and dodging
Down here in Buttermilk Bottom

[Chorus]
Buttermilk Bottom (yeah)
Buttermilk Bottom

[Verse 2]
Sisters are fine and foxy
The prettiest thing you've ever seen
Tall, black and sexy
And every time you see 'em they're clean
They all wearing different gangsta hats
Cause they think that's where it's at
They switching and walking and talking
And driving them Cadillacs
On Saturday night they're drinking
Come Sunday they all start thinking
And praying to the Lord to save us
Save us all from Buttermilk Bottom
[Chorus]
Buttermilk Bottom (yeah)
Buttermilk Bottom

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Buttermilk Bottom (yeah)
Buttermilk Bottom

[Verse 3]
Everybody's getting down
Doing what [?]
You can find them out on Gods road
In a nightclub every night
They all tryna get over
Tryna run the game
[?]
[?]
Cause everybody's fakin'
Tryna be what they ain't
And if they stay down here
They'll rot in Buttermilk Bottom

[Chorus/Outro]
Buttermilk Bottom (yeah)
Buttermilk Bottom
Buttermilk Bottom (Buttermilk Bottom)
Buttermilk Bottom
(Everybody's getting down...) Buttermilk Bottom
(In Buttermilk Bottom) Buttermilk Bottom
(Doing what they call right) Buttermilk Bottom
(And [?] wrong) Buttermilk Bottom
(You'll find them out on Gods Road) Buttermilk Bottom
(In Buttermilk...) Buttermilk Bottom
(In a nightclub every night) Buttermilk Bottom
(In Buttermilk Bottom) Buttermilk Bottom
(I tell ya they all try to get over...) Buttermilk Bottom
(Buttermilk Bottom) Buttermilk Bottom
