Intro: 

A homeboy is somebody that got your back 

Whether you right or wrong 

Somebody that excepts you for what you are 

Not what you got on, what you can do for them 

If you lucky enough to have some then 

You know what I'm talkin bout 



Verse 1: 



Friends, how many of us have them 

And not that many 

The chances of meeting someone these days you can trust is skinny 

But, it seems there really ain't a damn thing you can do 

Cause since the seventies, it seems everybody been rolling with a crew 

A team, a gang, a posse, or some type-a click 

And if your firm ain't thick 

Then your squad becomes vixed 

Be extra careful or the ones you call your partna 

Cause what they really is, is a busta out to rob ya 

And, be weary of strangers bearing your God and gifts 

And a wolf in sheeps clothing 

Cause some of y'all ain't knowing 

Me and you go back like roaches in the projects 

And, we done been through things they still ain't even thought of yet 

A good homie is hard to come by 

But most times you get done by the ones you trust most 

So, I gotta raise a toast 

To my tried and tested, and straight up for real dose 

Pour yourself some exol, this ones here for you, loc 



Chorus: Coolio, Montell Jordan 



I don't fly on air, walk on water (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) 

Uh, but, I'm damn sure your partner (Ooh-ooh-ooh) 

You can count on me to the end (Oh-yeah) 

Thick and thin, nigga 

You can call me homeboy (You can call me homeboy) 

If I got a quarter, then you got a dime (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) 

And, you can call me up no matter what the time (Ooh-ooh-ooh) 

If you watch my back, then I'll watch yours, nigga 

You can call me homeboy (Call me homeboy) 



Verse 2: 



Now I done met a lot of haters in my lifetime 

That I would of smoked if i would of had a Tek 9 

But, here I stand as a man, and I'm free to say 

I'm hella glad that my momma didn't raise me that way 

And the homies I grew up with 

Locs I threw up with 

Is the kind of fools that you don't want to buck with 

Why does it seem that the good brothers die 

And the evil brothers live 

And prosper and multiply 

Pass the Hennessey to the left hand side 

Want some many dirt for the homies that expired 

I hope you rest in peace 

And, when it's time for my release 

I'll meet you at the crossroads dippin in the low-low 

But, until then I'ma keep my rolls slow 

My flow on tight, and stay rollin with the 4-0 

This is comin from the one and only 

And like MC Shan said, "I'll never leave you lonely" 



Chorus: Coolio, Montell Jordan 



I don't fly on air, walk on water (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) 

But, I'm damn sure your partner (Ooh-ooh-ooh) 

You can count on me to the end (Oh-yeah) 

Thick and thin, nigga 

You can call me homeboy (You can call me homeboy) 

If I got a quarter then you got a dime (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) 

And, you can call me up no matter what the time (Ooh-ooh-ooh) 

If you watch my back, then I'll watch yours, nigga 

You can call me homeboy (Call me homeboy) 



Verse 3: 



Me and you is like family 

And everybody know that we go back to back 

And we go toe to toe 

Comin from the west 

Where the sets run thick 

Where brothers either bang or try to make a grip 

I cross my heart and hope to die 

I never lie 

I run out on mine 

Anywhere or anytime 

Me and my homies don't get involved with that he say, she say 

But, if you've lost you'll recieve a ass whippin with your instant replay 

Or, deckin like Tekken 

So, show some respect when respect is given to you 

And, watch out for the forty too 

Fake curve 

And fools who got the nerve 

To pretend that they was down 

When last month they wadn't even around 

West coast, East coast, and worldwide 

My homies in the pen, and my homies that lived and died 

I'm still the same little nappy head brother from the eastside 

And, you can call me homeboy 



Chorus: Coolio, Montell Jordan 



I don't fly on air or walk on water (Or walk on water, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) 

But, I'm damn sure your partner (Ooh-ooh-ooh) 

You can count on me to the end (Oh-yeah) 

Thick and thin, nigga 

You can call me homeboy (You can call me homeboy) 

If I got a quarter then you got a dime 

(If I got a quarter then you got a dime) 

And, you can call me up no matter what the time (Ooh-ooh-ooh) 

If you watch my back, then I'll watch yours 

(Watch my back, then I'll watch yours, yours) 

You can call me homeboy (Call me homeboy) 

I don't fly on air, walk on water (Iiii, don't walk on water, no) 

You can count on me till the end (Count on me till the end, oh-yeah) 

Thick and thin (Thick and thin) 

You can call me homeboy (Call me homeboy) 

If I got a quarter then you got a dime 

(If I got a quarter then you got a dime) 

And, you can call me up no matter what the time 

(Call me up no matter what the time) 

If you (If you) 

(Watch my back, I'll watch yours, yours) 

You can call me homeboy (Call me homeboy) 

(You can call me homeboy, boy, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) 

(I got your back, ooh-ooh-ooh) 

(You can call me homeboy) 

(You can call me homeboy)
