Murder Was The Case soundtrack — текст песни (Nate Dogg)

Intro:

We would like for you to help us welcome a very distinguished speaker
He hails from the DPG
Would you please stand and welcome the one, the only
OG Nate Dogg

Verse 1:

Now I was about eight when I caught my first case
My mother she turned her back and bowed her head in disgrace
Now I didn`t do a thing, I was just standing by
Here`s a message to the youngsters today: standing by you can die
Usually I`m in the house but today I snuck home
And when I walk down the Long Beach streets, what a lesson they taught
While walkin to the cornerstore a big mistake was made
My big homey I was walkin with decided he needed to get paid
So he loaded up his .32 and walked right in the store
He said Dear God, forgive me please but I can`t be broke no more
Now remember I was just eight, I thought this was a joke
What I`m sayin I ain`t playin, it was funny til that nigga got smoked
Can you guess who that could`ve been quite easily?
but it wasn`t so I`m lucky to be standing right here to see

Chorus:

One more day, one more
One more day
One more day, one more
One more day

Verse 2:

One more day, I`m hangin around so I can see
little Nate have a pocket full of money just like his daddy
Everyday I`m sellin big dope, it`s all that I know
I ain`t workin and I got a baby so don`t axe me what for
One more day, gather round everybody and listen to me
I gotta another story about the penitentiary
One more day, see while I was servin cavi I forgot to think
Say for instance they catch me, little Nate`ll never see
Now remember I`m sellin big dope but I`m packin my thangs
and every corner police watchin, I ain`t crazy so I`m leavin the game (I`m
leavin the game)
But I guess I waited too late cos they just caught me
Now I`m locked up, every mornin I am prayin for my son`s safety
One more day, I`d like to thank you for watchin over my D-O-double G`s
and would you keep an extra eye on Nate Dogg especially
I guess I`ll just continue liftin from day to day
and if I live to see tomorrow, thankyou for one more day
