California Love - Hip Hop Masters

California love

California knows how to party

California knows how to party

In the city of L A

In the city of good ol' Watts

In the city the city of Compton

We keep it rocking

We keep it rocking

Now 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 with a bomb a** h**p beat

The state where ya never find a dance floor empty

And pimps be on a mission for them greens

Lean mean money-making-machines serving fiends

I been in the game for ten years making rap tunes

Ever since honeys was wearing sassoon

Now it's '95 and they clock me and watch me

Diamonds shining looking like I robbed Liberace

It's all good from Diego to the Bay

Your city is tha bomb if your city making pay

Throw up a finger if ya feel the same way

Dre putting it down for

Califor ni a

California knows how to party

California knows how to party

In the city of L A

In the city of good ol' Watts

In the city the city of Compton

Keep it rocking

Keep it rocking

Yeah

Now make it shake

Come on

Shake it Cali

That's right

Oh

Out on bail fresh outta jail

California dreaming

Soon as I stepped on the scene

I'm hearing hoochies screaming

Fiending for money and alcohol

The life of a west side playa where cowards die

And cellphone

Only in Cali where we riot now rallies are live and die

In L A we wearing Chucks not Ballies

That's right

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 them recognize from Longbeach to Rosecrans

Bumping and grinding like a slow jam it's west side

So you know the row won't bow down to no man

Say what you say

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

In the city of L A

In the city of good ol' Watts

In the city the city of Compton

We keep it rocking

We keep it rocking

Yeah now make it shake

Come on

Shake it shake it baby

Shake it shake it

Shake it shake it mama

Shake it Cali

Shake it Cali

Shake it shake it baby

Shake it Cali

Shake it shake it mama

Oh

Shake it Cali

West coach

Uh yeah uh longbeach in tha house uh yeah
