[00:19.65]Gotta be handy with the steel if you know what I mean, earn your keep!
[00:22.91]REGULATORS!!! MOUNT UP!
[00:27.03]It was a clear black night, a clear white moon
[00:29.71]Warren G was on the streets, trying to consume
[00:32.23]Some skirts for the eve, so I can get some funk
[00:34.97]Just rollin in my ride, chillin all alone
[00:37.14]Just hit the Eastside of the LBC
[00:40.00]On a mission trying to find Mr. Warren G.
[00:42.46]Seen a car full of girls ain't no need to tweak
[00:44.90]All you skirts know what's up with 213
[00:47.19]So I hooks a left on the 21 and Lewis
[00:49.79]Some brothas shootin dice so I said "Let's do this"
[00:52.22]I jumped out the ride, and said "What's up?"
[00:54.56]Some brothas pulled some gats so I said "I'm stuck."
[00:57.45]Since these girls peepin me I'ma glide and swerve
[00:59.65]These hookers lookin so hard they straight hit the curb
[01:02.30]Won'tcha think of better things than some horny tricks
[01:04.48]I see my homey and some suckers all in his mix
[01:06.79]I'm gettin jacked, I'm breakin myself
[01:09.55]I can't believe they taking Warren's wealth
[01:12.21]They took my rings, they took my rolex
[01:14.45]I looked at the brotha said "Damn, what's next?"
[01:17.24]They got my homey hemmed up and they all around
[01:19.43]Ain't none of them seeing if they going straight pound for pound
[01:22.07]I gotta come up real quick before they start to clown
[01:24.44]I best pull out my strap and lay them busters down
[01:26.90]They got guns to my head
[01:28.34]I think I'm going down
[01:29.50]I can't believe this happenin in my own town
[01:31.92]If I had wings I could fly
[01:33.61]Let me contemplate
[01:34.49]I glanced in the cut and I see my homey Nate
[01:37.15]Sixteen in the clip and one in the hole
[01:39.39]Nate Dogg is about to make some bodies turn cold
[01:42.00]Now they droppin and yellin
[01:43.36]It's a tad bit late
[01:44.42]Nate Dogg and Warren G had to regulate
[02:07.33]I laid all them busters down
[02:08.18]I let my gat explode
[02:09.37]Now I'm switching my mind back into freak mode
[02:11.89]If you want skirts sit back and observe
[02:14.18]I just left a gang of those over there on the curb
[02:16.79]Now Nate got the freaks
[02:18.00]And that's a known fact
[02:19.21]Before I got jacked I was on the same track
[02:21.70]Back up back up cause it's on
[02:23.84]N A T E and me
[02:25.50]The Warren to the G
[02:26.83]Just like I thought
[02:27.95]They were in the same spot
[02:29.21]In need of some desperate help
[02:31.70]The Nate Dogg and the G-child
[02:34.12]Were in need of something else
[02:37.24]One of them dames was sexy as hell
[02:39.05]I said "ooo I like your size."
[02:41.47]She said "my car's broke down and you seem real nice,
[02:44.05]Would ya let me ride?"
[02:46.68]I got a car full of girls and it's going real swell
[02:51.54]The next stop is the Eastside Motel
[03:16.51]I'm tweaking
[03:17.64]Into a whole new era
