Ghetto Lisa Lyrics

She's what they call big boned

So much so that brothas be zoned in on her hips

And they fall for the tricks that Lisa plays

To keep them sprung and dumb

Don't get me wrong because Lisa's not trickin'

At least in the sense of trickin'

Like a common prostitute to get her loot

Naw, Lisa's about hers,

Women wanna be her and men wanna hold and control her

She always quotes Gwen Guthrey

When hollering back at the brothas who try to spit

"You gotta have a J.O.B. if you wanna be with me"

Actually, that's just game that Lisa runs on them

See, she's got her eyes on the prize and the prize is a better life

See, she's an intelligent black queen

Who reads books, sees plays and a lady

Who also entertains aspirations of someday

Seeing her name in lights up on that big silver screen

She always says, "It can happen!"

Until that day arrives

Lisa strives to do her best to survive

In a neighborhood that's run down

Run down to the ground

You see, she's above this place

And Lisa makes haste of the waste of time and skills… the sistah is buildin'

Yup, she builds

For real!

Don't believe me? just ask her yourself. I mean everyone knows Lisa…

Just ring… Lisa G at

Building B
