[verse 1]
|
|
Early Sunday morning in the spring of 96
|
Chilling on the couch watching the bulls against the knicks
|
My honey marches in and ask if I think I'm slick
|
It seem she found my shirt with lipstick
|
I thought I could explain but then my story wouldn't stick
|
Incriminating pictures show me some other chicks
|
It happened once before and she was tired of the tricks
|
She ask me if I can spell the word evict
|
|
[chorus]
|
|
Why me lord situation looking kinda bad
|
Why me lord I lost the best girl I ever had
|
Why me lord I'm homeless and I'm feeling kinda sad
|
Why me why me why me why me
|
Why me lord how you member massa god so quick
|
Why me lord when trouble tek you pickney shirt a fit
|
Why me lord is just because you don't know when to quit
|
Why me why me why me why me
|
|
[verse 2]
|
|
Just the other day when I was rolling with my crew
|
Made a little flex around by flatbush avenue
|
Calling to some honeys and sipping on my brew
|
That's when I saw the boys in blue
|
Pulled us to the side why I don't even have a clue
|
Looking for a reason and they finally found a few
|
A case of ammunition and a loaded thirty two
|
I can't believe what I'm going through
|
|
[chorus]
|
|
Why me lord here I am I gotta face the time
|
Why me lord though the evidence ain't even mine
|
Why me lord I swear I ain't guilty of the crime
|
Why me why me why me why me
|
Why me lord how you member massa god so quick
|
Why me lord when trouble tek you pickney shirt a fit
|
Why me lord is just because you don't know when to quit
|
Why me why me why me why me
|
|

|
|
Take heed never take advantage of the thing you need
|
Never let yourself be over come by greed
|
Walk the straight and narrow and you shall succeed
|
Get you act up to speed
|
And try no matter what it takes to give a next man a blye
|
Everybody else deserve a piece a the pie
|
Honesty the best policy no sell no samfie
|
You no need fi wonder why
|
|
[chorus]
