The Payback (Part 1)
Hey! Gotta, gotta payback!
(The big payback)
Revenge!
I'm mad! (The big payback)
Got to get back!
I need some get-back!
Payback!
Payback! (The big payback)
There it is! Payback!
Revenge!
I'm mad!

You get down with my girlfriend, that ain't right
HO! Smokin'!
Holler and cuss
You wanna fight
Payback is a thing you got to see
Hell! Never do any damn thing to me

You sold me out for chicken change
(Yes you did)
You told me that they, they had it all arranged
You had me down, and that's a fact
And now, you punk, you gotta get ready
For the big payback
(The big payback)
That's where I laugh, HO, for the big payback
(The big payback)
I can do wheelin', I can do dealin'
(Yes we can)
But I don't do no damn squealin'
I can dig rappin'
I'm ready! I can dig scrappin'
But I can't dig that backstabbin'
(Oh no)
So brother get ready, that's a fact
Get ready, you mother for the big payback
(The big payback)
Let me hit them, hit them, Fred, hit them
Hey, hey, HEY!
Lord! Lord!

You took my money, you got my honey
Don't want me to see what you doin' to me
I can get back!
I got to deal with you, gotta deal with ya
Gotta deal with ya!
I... gotta deal with...
Hey, let me tell you!
Get down with my woman, that ain't right
You holler and cuss, you wanna fight

Looka here!
Don't do me no darn favor
I don't know karate, but I know ca-razy
(Yes we do)
Hey! Get ready, that's a fact
Get ready you mother for the big payback
(The big payback)
Hey, I'm a man, I'm a man...
I'm a son of a man, but don't they tell you that papa can
Get ready for the big payback
(The big payback)
Hit me again!
No, don't...
Get ready, I need it, I need a hit again
The same one. The same one. The same one
Hit me back
Lord!
(The big payback)
Sold me out for chicken change
You said my woman had it all arranged
Tried to make a deal, she wanted to squeal
But I had my boys on her heels
Saw what she had comin', told a lie
She broke down and she wanted to cry
I don't care what she does
She'll be doing just like she was
Take those kids and raise them up
Somebody drink out the righteous cup
Take her, take that woman, it's one place she found
Just run that mother out of town
Make her get up, make her get up, get out
Make her get up, make her get up, get out
I'm mad!
I want revenge, I want revenge, my...
(The big payback)
My patience ends, I want revenge
My patience ends, I want revenge
I want revenge, I want revenge
(The big payback)
Gonna get some hits, I need those hits
I need those hits, hit me!

Lord, I need those hits
Carry on, carry on, payback melody
(The big payback)
(The big payback)
Alright!
Da-dee-da-da, da-dee-da-da, da-dee-da-da
(The big payback)
