Queen Latifah - New Jersey Drive текст песни

Yo what's up this is Queen Latifah in the house

Definetely representin Jersey on the love love

Coolin' in the county; shoot [???]

But damn I miss home

[Chorus x4]

I can't.. forget New Jersey

[Verse 1: Queen Latifah]

When I think of home I think of a place where theres no over-flowin

And all my family and peeps I knew when I was growin

Mommy and daddy made me proud to in Owens

So for me to keep goin, I would become

Her eminental royal highness

The Queen Latifah; no doubt; one of New Jersey's finest

So, said it all

Get up on all of my own

Cause Jersey's what I think about when I think of home

Don't let know one get close to you except the chosen

Stick with the ones who meant the most to you

when you were broke and blue, that's how fam do

That's how you stay true around these snakes

that freakin' smile when they hate you

I'm quick to take the ride down for in-town

(Just another day living on a down)

My experience legit, my rhymes is on hit

It's mad truth to the room where we the shit; I can't forget

[Chorus]

[Verse 2: Queen Latifah]

I used to work at Burger King but after takin orders

I used to take the path to Latin Quarters across the waters

Where I learned to do the Who, yo, I couldn't stop

I brought it back around the way to show the peple on my block

Teacher, teacher, tell me how you do it

It looks so simple like that there's nothin to it

So, we meet at Irvan's (???) and after school I run

To the wall of Brookmore boots, there was Solamon

I had a talent for getting up for gear

A petty thief, small time crook of the year

But I chilled cause I had bigger dreams than to steal

And Ramsey came for me and Patchy to put our voices on a reel

And I could hear myself on the radio

"45 King Special Red Alert Show"

Cause that's what life was all about to me

All EE flavor you did it, represent Jersey

[Chorus]

[Verse 3: Queen Latifah]

I think about my mom and my brothers when I'm all swoll

Shock, Kim, when I'm all swoll

My baby sister. when I'm all swoll

Hostan, when I'm all swoll

Ill-Town, when I all swoll

Jill-Town, JC, when I'm all swoll

[???] to [???] so on, when I'm all swoll

Recognize the whole mama soul

We got Naughty

In another words we got Nicky

We got Redman, the Order Facts and Whitney [???]

Bruce Springsteen, and a house ah blacks

Shaquille O'Neal, oh he'll catch rack

Tisha Campbell, Jerry Lewis, Tony Bennett

Back spin, or spin it,

Thursday peppermint and I'm in it

Shag do's, I does no fo's in the spot

Cause them peeps is my peeps and my back is got

Nuf' respect to your burough, your block

You're black; I love to see us move as a flock

Unscrapped, against each other

No body armor

Nobody harms a hair on a head, everything calmer

We ghetto stars and fools

We paid the dues

We made the blues

So come on with the come on

And get down with the get down

I'm down with my hometown sound
