[Verse 1]
Drivin down the motherfuckin highway
The flyway, "Hey, bitch, you goin my way?"
Now I got a passenger
I looked at the miniskirt, and I'm askin' her
"Would you like to hit the fat bud?
Or perhaps can I run your name through the mud?
I mean, Are you giving up the nappy dugout?"
She said, "No," "Well then, get the fuck out!"
'Cause I know where the hoes be fienin'
Plus your fat ass got my six-deuce leanin'
Bust a U on the avenue
Why oh why there ain't shit to do
Bumping Sir Jinx's latest mix
And you thought that shit played out in '86
Lookin for my dogs
Looked up in the mirror being followed by the hogs
One time's on my motherfuckin line
Why the fuck the swine had to get behind a nigga like me
They must think it's a G
They both walk up with the G-L-O-C
(Get out of the car! There was a robbery; the nigga looked just like you. All right, put your hands up, take your pants down, spread your cheeks.)
Started they investigation:
No driver's license no registration
When I stepped out the car they slammed me
Goddamn y'all who got the camera?

[Hook: repeat 2X]
"Oh please, oh please, oh please, just gimme just one more hit"
"Oh please, oh please, oh please, just gimme just one more hit"
Who got the camera?

[Verse 2]
No lights no camera no action
And the pigs wouldn't believe that my slave name was Jackson
He said, "Don't lie to me"
"I'm looking for John, Matty, or Spike Lee"
The motherfuckers called for back up
I guess they planned to beat the mack up
He called me a silly ass thug
And pulled out his billy ass club
Tearin up my coupe lookin for the chronic
Goddamn nobody got a Panasonic?!
Found an empty can of Old Gold
Came around and put my ass in a choke hold
Fucked around and broke my pager
Then they hit a nigga with a Taser
The motherfucking pigs was trying to hurt me
I fell to the ground and said, "Lord, have mercy!"
Then they hit me in the face y'all
But to them it ain't nuttin but (a friendly game of base ball)
Crowd stood around I said "God damn ya
Who got the camera?"

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
I knew when I saw that deputy smirkin'
That they was gonna put some work in
Mr. lLaw had to hit me in the jaw
'Cause I called them faggots with guns and badges
They played rat-a-tat-tat on me head
But if I had the gatty-gat-gat they'd be dead
A victim of a big fat 187
And little devils don't go to heaven
Last night it was eleven but they wasn't scarin me
So they tried the flashlight therapy
I looked at the black one and called him a traitor
I don't give a fuck if you got a Beta
Just take my fuckin picture
So I can go downtown and pitch a bitch about
The one that called me a spook
His name is Officer David Duke
If the crowd wasn't around, he would've shot me
Tried to play me out like my name was Rodney
Fuckin police gettin badder
'Cause if I had a camera, the shit wouldn't matter (bitch)

[Outro]
Uhh, who got my nine
Who got my nine
Y'all done did it this time, uh
Who the fuck got my nine?

Ice Cube

Straight outta South Central Los Angeles, Ice Cube became one of the most respected rappers in hip-hop, helping to usher in the era of gangsta rap with N.W.A and as a solo artist. He has gone on to become a mogul in Hollywood but still remains true to the game that brought him his success.

Born O'Shea Jackson on June 15, 1969, Ice Cube got his name from his older brother, who threatened to put him in a freezer and pull him out when he was an ice cube. He began rapping in high school and started his rap career as a member of Stereo Crew, which released the single “She’s a Skag” through Epic Records in 1986, and C.I.A. with the 1987 track “My Posse.” Both groups featured producer Sir Jinx, the cousin of DJ/producer Dr. Dre.

Ice Cube’s big break came when he wrote the song “Boyz n the Hood” for Eazy-E, which led to the formation of N.W.A. as a group. After the release of the 1987 compilation N.W.A. and the Posse, the group released their classic debut Straight Outta Compton in 1988. A financial dispute caused Cube to leave the group in 1989 and start his successful solo career, starting with his 1990 platinum debut Amerikkka’s Most Wanted.
