california love
Singer:somekindawonderful
california knows how to party
california knows how to party yea
in the city of l.a. in the city of good ol' watts
let me welcome everybody to the wild wild west
a state that's untouchable like elliot ness
the track hits ya eardrum like a slug to ya chest
pack a vest for your jimmy in the city of sex
we in that sunshine state where that bomb ass hemp be
the state where you never find a dance floor empty
and pimps be on a mission for them greens
lean mean money-makin-machines serving fiends
i been in the game for ten years makin' rap tunes
ever since honeys was wearin sassoon
now it's '95 and they clock me and watch me
diamonds shinin' looking like i robbed liberace
your city is tha bomb if your city makin pay
throw up a finger if you feel the same way
dre puttin it down for californ-i-a
california knows how to party
california knows how to party yea
in the city of l.a. in the city of good ol' watts
shake it shake it shake it shake it
out on bail fresh outta jail
soon as i stepped on the scene
i'm hearin hoochies screamin
fiendin for money and alcohol
the life of a west side playa where cowards die and it's all ball
only in cali where we riot not rally to live and die
in l.a. we wearin' chucks
dressed in locs and khaki suits and ride is what we do
flossin but have caution we collide with other crews
famous cause we program worldwide
let'em recognize from long beach to rosecrans
bumpin and grindin like a slow jam
so you know the row won't bow down to no man
but give me that bomb beat from dre
let me serenade the streets of l.a. from oakland to sacktown
the bay area and back down
cali is where they put they mack down
california knows how to party
california knows how to party yea
in the city of l.a. in the city of good ol' watts
shake it cali! shake it cali!
