Nelly - Nellyville! lyrics

Your rating:

Welcome to Nellyville, where all newborns get a half-a-mill`
Sons, get the tan DeVille, soon as they can reach the wheel
And daughters, get diamonds the size of their age - help me out now
One year get one carat, two years get two carats
Three years get three carats, and so on into marriage
Nobody livin average, everybody jang-a-lang
Nobody livin savage, e`rybody got change
Even the paperboy deliver out the back of a Range
It`s not a game, it`s a beautiful thang
Imagine blocks and blocks of no cocaine, blocks with no gunplay
Ain`t nobody shot, so ain`t no news that day
Ain`t nobody snitchin, they refuse to say
Every month - we take a vote on what the weather should be
And if we vote it rains - know how wet we want it to be
And if we vote it snow - know how deep we want it to get
But the sun gon` shine 99 percent, in Nellyville
[Chorus]
There`s no.. way.. I.. I could explaiiiiin..
the way I feel right now
There`s no.. way.. I.. I could explaiiiiin..
the way I feel about livin in Nellyville
[Nelly]
I got that good at e`ry gas station, pull on up
Give me a half a ounce of that shit, fill it up
We got straws for the bottles, outlaw the cups
And we gon` make it happen, ain`t no need for no luck
Ain`t no lotteries, no pick 3`s or pick 2`s
Keep the money in your family, gamble amongst your crew
Cause the dice gon` do what the dice gon` do
And if you take a life, you gon` lose yours too
Ain`t no trials, it`s automatic, you drop `em right where it happen
You do unto others if you don`t want it don`t do the cappin
Think that`s cool?  40 acres and a mule
Fuck that!  Nellyville - 40 acres and a pool
Six bedrooms, full bath with a jacuzz`
Six-car garage, pavement smooth
Both front and back deck `nough room to land a jet
And you ain`t reached the city, that`s just the projects
[Chorus]
[Nelly] Everybody, uh, now everybody say
[Interlude]
Well I want to go, please let me go
I need to go - down to Nellyville
I need to see, what I can say
Won`t you and me - go to Nellyville
I want to go, so bad
I just want to go and look
Won`t you please take me on in
I just know I gotta be there
[Nelly]
No unexpectancy, like teenage pregnancy
And physical mental attraction your only ecstasy
Your own destiny, create your own recipe
If you ain`t livin accordin to dirty then you stressin me
"And who are you?"  Who me?  I`m the mayor
And any problems you got, I live up thurr
"Where`s that?"  The house on the hill, welcome mat of fur
When you pass by that thang, be polite and don`t sturr
[Chorus]
..
[Outro]
Yeah
There`s no.. way.. yeah
There`s no.. way.. yeah
There`s no.. way.. yeah
There`s no.. way..
