The Way We Ball (Album Version)

Hey, ho

(This is the way we ball)

Ah ha, Houston, Texas

(This is the way we ball)

Ah ha

(This is the way we ball)

(This is the way we ball)

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss

I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty south (this is the way we ball)

And we ridin' blades, Jags and Escalades

We third coast boys but we always gettin' paid (this is the way we ball)

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss

I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty south (this is the way we ball)

And we ridin' blades, Jags and Escalades

We third coast boys but we always gettin' paid (this is the way we ball)

I'm Lil' Flip, I'm back on the scene, freestyle king

Brand new piece, same Byzentine

I'm still sippin' lean, I'm still watchin' "Scream"

I love wearin' platinum, but my favorite color's green

I'm hoppin' out Ferraris, my house is three stories

I'm still independent 'cause Jive couldn't afford me

The meetings were boring, for real, I was snoring

The VP was fine, yeah, she made me kinda horny

But that's another story, let's get back to the topic

Right now, me and Hump negotiatin' to buy the Rockets

We might buy the Comets, name it, I done it

If you see it and want it, buy it, own it

This is for my homies, Pat and DJ Screw

R.I.P. dawg 'cause I really miss you

Boy, I'ma stay true, until the day I fall

East coast and West coast, this is how we ball (this is the way we ball)

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss

I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty south (this is the way we ball)

And we ridin' blades, Jags and Escalades

We third coast boys but we always gettin' paid (this is the way we ball)

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss

I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty south (this is the way we ball)

And we ridin' blades, Jags and Escalades

We third coast boys but we always gettin' paid (this is the way we ball)

I'm thinkin', designer clothes and fashion shows

I'm thinkin', all my albums goin' platinum and gold

I'm thinkin', Jaguars and a Bentley Rolls

I'm thinkin', bein' rich before I'm 24

I'm feelin', wood grain all in my tinted truck

I'm fillin', all my teeth up with princess cuts

I'm fillin', jugs up, no more empty cups

I'm feelin', like I'm worth ten million bucks

And I know, I wear a watch, yo, it was made from a game

And I know, my rims chop like the blades on a plane

And I know, yo' baby mama still givin' me brain

And I know, that ain't platinum, that's a silvery chain

And I make, nothin' but hits when I step in the booth

And I make, rainbows from the sun reflect on my tooth

And I make, DVD's light up in my Coupe

I think, I feel, I know, I'm making money, how 'bout you? (This is the way we ball)

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss

I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty south (this is the way we ball)

And we ridin' blades, Jags and Escalades

We third coast boys but we always gettin' paid (this is the way we ball)

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss

I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty south (this is the way we ball)

And we ridin' blades, Jags and Escalades

We third coast boys but we always gettin' paid (this is the way we ball)

I'm swangin', about to rip the kizzerp, sippin' on my syzzerp

If you buy first from me then you just bought a dessert

Swangas on my whizzeel, platinum in my grizzeel

Me and Doby D stay blowin' on some kizzeel

I'm higher than a hizzeel, mind on a mizzell

Southside of H-town show me how you fizzeel

Now you see we ball, now you see we rich

I represent the legendary Screwed Up Click

I wreck I-45, I wreck two Screw tapes

I'm three wheelin', poppin' trunk, goin' down Fuqua

So move out of my way 'cause I'm ridin' double R

MJ right behind me in a Lexus bubble car (this is the way we ball)

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss

I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty south (this is the way we ball)

And we ridin' blades, Jags and Escalades

We third coast boys but we always gettin' paid (this is the way we ball)

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss

I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty south (this is the way we ball)

And we ridin' blades, Jags and Escalades

We third coast boys but we always gettin' paid (this is the way we ball)
