Devin The Dude - What A Job lyrics

Your rating:

(feat. Andre 3000, Snoop Dogg) 



[chorus:] 

Rollin' up another swisha listenin' to the beat again 

Drankin' but we concentratin' smoke another sweet again 

Steadily rewindin' trying to make some hot shit 

Oh what a job this is 



Another all nighter tryin' to get it done 

Barely make it home with the morning sun 

Baby mother thinking that you on some other shit 

Oh what a job this is 



[Devin the Dude:] 

Drankin' yet I'm thinking of another rhyme 

Smokin' hoping that some bad news will come some other time 

Cause I'm trying to do what I love, I love what I do 

This music is something mo' different than the weed and the brew 

That's why we mashin' we ain't asking for nothing we working for it 

Push it peddle it to the people they can't ignore it, this is for 

All the independents, a few major labels 

The big studios who still give niggas favors 

On the mixin' and mastering, puzzlin' and plastering the tracks together 

On tapes, CDs, wax or whatever 

This is for all the engineers who smoke weed 

Can't forget about the production costs and all the hidden fees 

For another rhyme written, we spend time spittin' in the booth 

Sometimes it's like a pigeon coop 

But it's all for the cause [vocal scratch] so I'm 

Gonna continue to MC and smoke weed, you know I'm 



[chorus] 



[Snoop Dogg:] 

As easy as it looks to you I make it look so easy 

With the music I be making the impression I be leaving 

A lot of folks they stop and stare, thinking Im'a trick it off 

I roll another bleezy, puff it, pass it and shake it off 

Move on to the next phase and it's amazing 

The next generation of rappers, big Snoop Dogg raising 

Mmm, that's 15 years in the game 

Still got the fortune and fame, yeah I'm doing my thang, check this Devin 

Somebody said that real Gs to go heaven 

So I'ma keep spittin' the truth on these fools like a reverend, stay open 

Like 7-11 that's 24/7 

When you need some hot shit stop by and get you a beverage, I'm serving 

My rhymes like nickels and dimes 

Plug it in, let it play and let me blow your mind 

It's the dominant conglomerate prominent and I'ma get 

What I gotta get, twist another sweet and bob to the beat 



[chorus] 



[Andre 3000:] 

We work nights, we some vampires 

Niggas gather round the beat like a campfire 

Singin' folk songs, but not no Kumbaya my Lord 

You download it for free, we get charged back for it 

I know you're saying, they won't know they won't miss it 

Besides, I ain't a thief, they won't pay me a visit 

So if I come to your job, take your corn on the cob 

And take a couple kernels off it that would be alright with you 

Hell no! Yeah, exactamundo 

But we just keep recording and it ain't to get no condo 

And Candy Bentley fanny with no panties in Miami 

And that cute lil' chick named Tammy that you took to the Grammys 

See we do it for that boi that graduated 

That looked you in your eyes real tough and said 'preciate it 

And that he wouldn'ta made it if it wasn't for your CD number 9 

And he's standing with his baby momma Kiki and she cryin' talkinbout 

That they used to get high to me in high school 

And they used to make love to me in college 

Then they told me 'bout they first date, listenin' to my tunes 

And how he, like to finger nail polish 

I say hate to cut you off but I gotta go 

I wish you could tell me mo' but I'm off to the studio, gotta write tonight 

Hey, can you put us in your raps? I don't see why not 

Devin it's the Dude you gon' probably hear him talking 'bout 



[chorus] 



[Snoop Dogg:] 

Yeah, this life we live. What a job this is. Real spit man 

A lot of folks want to walk in these shoes but they just don't know man 

it's a hell of a job, man 

To be a rapper, MC, whatever you want to call it, man 

We got a lot to deal with. Family members we gotta always look out for 

Baby momma nagging, you knowImsaying kids need this, 

And then again the public need that, we gotta make hot music 

Cause if it ain't hot it don't mean shit 

But you know, it's all in a day's work 



What a job this is my nigga 

What's crack-a-lackin' Devin the Dizzude? 

Snoop D-O dub, J Prince, Jazz Prince 

Yeah, Rap-A-Lot still on top. 2007
