L.A. Heres 2 U by Tha Dogg Pound Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2013

[Chorus: Johnnie Taylor Sample]
L.A., here's to you
For being the kind of place a man can do his due
Out here the hippies skip, and they get their kicks
Bumpin' all night long, out on Sunset Strip...

[Intro: Snoop Dogg, Johnnie Taylor Sample]
Yeah, ha ha
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, players and pimps
We'd like to welcome you all to Los Angeles (L.A.), California (Here's to you)
Yes, sir
For being the kind of place a man can do his due
Out here the hippies skip, and they get their kicks
Bumpin' all night long, out on Sunset Strip…

[Verse 1: Snoop Dogg]
Run it down the line, Sunset and Vine
Blow a half a zip by the Hollywood sign
Scotty once said "It gets better with time"
Eastside Long Beach but this L.A. County on mines
Yeah, this is the sign of the times
One of a kind, and this might blow your mind
This ain't no TV show, bow-wow-yippee-yo
Standin' on your tippy-toe, nigga here we, here we go
Crenshaw Boulevard, everywhere niggas hard,
Left on Vernon by my auntie's front yard
No disrespect or disregard
Shout out to the whole motherfuckin' Crip card
Dip hard, rip hard, used to poplock
You turn on the wrong street and you will get got
Rules of the city like fee-fi-fo
Creep slow in a '4, motherfuck Five-O
[Chorus: Johnnie Taylor Sample]
L.A., here's to you
For being the kind of place a man can do his due
Out here the hippies skip, and they get their kicks
Bumpin' all night long, out on Sunset Strip...

[Verse 2: Kurupt]
Yeah, look, Dogg Pound Gangstas, we gotta dump off
Unless you wanna hear that pump cough
Watch who you talk on
And watch the different streets you walk on
I mob like a mobster
Like I'm a motherfuckin' monster
Don't make me approach you
Contraband in my hand
With the homies from the land with a plan to expand
And leave with a hundred grand with my pistol in my hand
Just me, Daz, and ... Bigg Snoop
Niggas that ain't never kept out the loop
Look, is this the way you livin'
In this land of the unforgiven?
Man, be wary how you livin'
So let me show you where a nigga livin'

[Chorus: Johnnie Taylor Sample, Daz Dillinger]
L.A., here's to you
For being the kind of place a man can do his due
Out here the hippies skip (Woo), and they get their kicks (Yeah, yeah)
Bumpin' all night long, out on Sunset Strip... (West Coast)
[Verse 3: Daz Dillinger]
The glamour, the lights, turn the city into the place you wanna be at
Tha Dogg Pound Gangstas, yeah, nigga, we bizzack
From Figueroa to Pacific Palisades
Iconic Hollywood culture, blow it in the frame
Blind from the sunrays, I put on my locs
Skirt that Sunset as I ride and smoke
Approximately twenty-two miles to that famous boulevard
Echo Park, Silver Lake, now I'm smokin' my car
Treacherous in areas, yeah, it's four lanes wide
Esés, Asian, niggas, and yeah, one time
History extended Cesar Chavez
For prostitution, hoes sellin' all ass
By the Sunset Strip with a Black and white blonde bitch
Pistol on the grip, yeah, I'm takin' no shit (Boo-yow)
You see us as we ride by
Exit 405, now the shit's gettin' live, we in

[Chorus: Johnnie Taylor Sample]
L.A., here's to you
For being the kind of place a man can do his due
Out here the hippies skip, and they get their kicks
Bumpin' all night long, out on Sunset Strip...

[Outro: Johnnie Taylor Sample]
L.A., here's to you
For being the kind of place a man can do his due
