[Intro: Scarface]
They Love me

[Verse 1: Scarface]
They say now pass the ganja to the left hand side
Filpping in the Range Rover blowing past the one times
Hit me with the (whoop whoop)
Bubble gum flashing in my rear view
Spraying freshener trying to steer too
Throwin out my herbs on the passenger side
Got the windows rolled down, airing out the ride
Got a loaded .45 inside
That I keep for protection when I'm riding by
My Smith and Wesson got a scope too
And I may have caught a body on it
For those who get just know somebody want it
They only ?????
To know that you ain't done shit
But still you got them haters in your business
I'm paranoid she's blowing my high
And she knew that I was buzzin from the red in my eye
Got my license and my papers, Showed me my picture on The Source
Then what the fuck you stopping me for?
And she said

[Hook: Destiny's Child]
Gangsta Ow
Put me Down, Now
Gang-sta put me down
Now, Ow

[Verse 2: Scarface]
So I gave her my cellular number and told her call me up
Beating on my dashboard hot than a fuck
Cause I done chunked a half a square thinking 5-0 jocking trying to jam me up
I continue on my mission to my Grandma's house
Hollering at my homeboy who just got out
What's up let's roll
Get you some clothes
Take you to the club so you can get with some hoes
Lets go
Made to the mall hoes thick
Listenting to Pac screaming that's the shit
Getting geared when this woman appeared up out the blue
Telling me she like what I do
And the ho was like

[Hook: Destiny's Child]
Gangsta Ow
Put me Down, Now
Gang-sta put me down
Now, Ow

[Verse 3: Willie-D]
Willie D's rollin on D's
In a drop top A-Z-U-R-E
With the knock knock banging
Listening to a song my nigga Face singing
Eardrums just a ringing, my homey bringing
A couple of honies to the hideaway
We gone fuck these hoes and straight ride away
Gotta pack confirmed tickets get some sleep
We rolling to the Baby Johnson fight a 100 niggas deep
Ain't bringing sand to beach
I got my eyes on some freak ass broads
And menage-a-trois
Never kiss and tell I keeps em horny as hell
And take my dick inside that pussy put it under a spell
Got more mail than the post office let me remind you
Don't stare at my diamonds too hard they might blind you
Freaky Deeky, Freaky Deeky Deeky
When you see me rolling past all you got to do is ask

[Hook: Destiny's Child]
Gangsta Ow
Put me Down, Now
Gang-sta put me down
Now, Ow
Gangsta Ow
Put me Down, Now
Gang-sta put me down
Now, Ow
Gangsta Ow
Put me Down, Now
Gang-sta put me down
Now, Ow

Geto Boys

Geto Boys is a rap group hailing from Houston, Texas, best known as the flagship artists on Rap-A-Lot Records with the classic lineup of Scarface, Willie D, and Bushwick Bill. The group caused controversy over their gangsta rap content but they are credited with being pioneers in putting Southern rap on the hip-hop map.

The initial group consisted of Bushwick Bill, DJ Ready Red, Prince Johnny C, and Sire Jukebox, who were featured on their 1988 debut album Making Trouble. Following the album’s lack of success, Rap-A-Lot CEO J. Prince replaced Prince Johnny C and Sire Jukebox with Willie D and Scarface (who went by “Akshen” at the time). This lineup was in place for the group’s second album Grip It! On That Other Level, which received critical acclaim, including a spot on The Source’s Top 100 Rap Albums of All Time list. Their breakthrough third album, We Can’t Be Stopped, was released in 1991 and featured their biggest single, “Mind Playing Tricks On Me.”

After that album, the three members released solo projects and Willie D was replaced by Big Mike for the group’s fourth album, Till Death Do Us Part. Scarface, Willie D, and Bushwick Bill reunited in 1996 for The Resurrection, but Bushwick wasn’t involved in the group’s 1998 release, Da Good, Da Bad & Da Ugly—however, he came back to complete the trio for the group’s next album, 2005’s The Foundation.
