2pac - california love

California Love!

California, knows how to party.
California, knows how to party...
In the city of LA,
In the city of good ole Watts,
In the city, city of Compton,
We keep it rockin'. we keep it rockin'...

Dr. Dre:

Now let me welcome everybody to the wild, wild west,
A state that's untouchable like Elliot Ness.
The track hits your eardrum like a slug to your chest.
Pack a vest for your jimmy in the city of sex.
We in that sunshine state with a bomb ass hemp beat,
The state where ya never find a dancefloor empty,
And pimps be on a mission for them greens.
Lean mean money making machines, servin fiends.
I've been in the game for ten years making rap tunes,
Ever since honeys was wearing sassons.
Now its '95 and they clock and watch me.
Diamond's shining,
Lookin' like I robbed Liberace.
Its all good from Diego to the Bay.
Your city is the bomb if your city making pay (uh)
Throw up a finger if you feel the same way.
Dre putting it down for Californi-yeah...

California (california), knows how to party (knows how to party)
California (west coast), know how to party... (That's right)
In the city (city) of LA, city of LA...
In the city of good old Watts, good old Watts...
In the city, city of Compton (city of Compton)...
We keep it rockin', (keep it rockin') We keep it rockin'...

Yeah, yow make it shake, come on...
Shake it, shake it baby.
Shake, shake it, (shake it baby)
Shake, shake it Mama.
Shake it Cali.
Shake it Cali...
Shake, shake it baby...
That's right!
Shake, shake it baby.
Shake, shake it Mama.
Shake it Cali!

TuPac:

Out on bail,
Fresh outta jail.
California Dreamin',
Soon as I step on the scene
I'm hearin' hoochies screamin'.
Fiendin' for money and alcohol -
The life of a west-side playah.
When cops die, its on ball.
Only in Cali will we riot, not rally, so live and die.
In LA where we gear Chucks, not Balley's.
(Yeah, that's right... uh)
Dressed in locs and khaki suits, and ride is what we do.
Flossin', but have caution - we collide with other foo's...
Famous because we throw jams - world wide.
Let 'em recognize from Long Beach to Rosecrance.
Bumpin' and grindin' like a slow jam,
Its west-side, so you know the Row won't bow down to no man!
Say what you say but give me that bomb beat from Dre...
Let me serenade the streets of LA!
From Oakland to Sack town...
The Bay Area and back down...
Cali is where they put their Mack down.
Give me love!

California (california) knows how to party (aint no doubt)
California (do do do do) knows how to party.
C'mon, baby...
In the city (South Central) of LA...
In the city of good old Watts,
That's right...
In the city, city of Compton,
We keep it rockin', keep it rockin'. We keep it rockin'...

Yeah, Yeah...

Dr. Dre: Now make it shake... Ahhh...

Shake, shake, shake it baby.
Ahhh
Shake, shake, shake it baby.
Yeah...
Shake, shake it Mama.
Shake it Cali,

Shake, Shake it baby,

Dr. Dre: Long Beach in the house, ahhh!

Oaktown... Oakland definately in the house.
Frisco, yeah, Frisco...

TuPac:
Eh, You know LA up in this...

Pasadena, where you at?
Yeah, Inglewood...
Inglewood always up to no good.
Even Hollywood tryin' to get a piece of that...
Sacramento, Sacramento, where you at?
Yeah...

Throw it up y'all! Throw it up! Throw it up!
I can't see ya...

California Love...

Let's show these foo's how we do it on this West-side...
'Cause you and I know its the best side!

Yeah, that's right...
West coast, West coast...
Ahhh! California love!
California love, yeah...

California knows how to party.... Yeah....
