99 Problems Lyrics - Jay-z

If you're having girl problems I feel bad for you son 

I got ninety nine problems but a bitch ain't one 

I got the rap patrol on the gat patrol 

Foes that want to make sure my casket's closed 

Rap critics that say he's "Money Cash Hoes" 

I'm from the hood, stupid What type of facts are those 

If you grew up with holes in your zapatos 

You'd celebrate the minute you was having dough 

I'm like "Fuck critics" you can kiss my whole asshole 

If you don't like my lyrics, you can press fast forward 

Got beef with radio if I don't play they show 

They don't play my hits, well, I don't give a shit, so 

Rap mags try and use my black ass 

So advertisers can give 'em more cash for ads, fuckers 

I don't know what you take me as 

Or understand the intelligence that Jay-Z has 

I'm from rags to riches, niggas I ain't dumb 

I got ninety nine problems but a bitch ain't one, hit me 

Ninety nine problems but a bitch ain't one 

If you having girl problems I feel bad for you son 

I got ninety nine problems but a bitch ain't one, hit me 

Year's '94 and my trunk is raw 

In my rear view mirror is the motherfucking law 

I got two choices y'all, pull over the car or, hmm, 

Bounce on the devil, put the pedal to the floor 

Now I ain't trying to see no highway chase with Jake 

Plus I got a few dollars I could fight the case 

So I, pull over to the side of the road 

I heard "Son, do you know why I'm stopping you for?" 

Cause I'm young and I'm black and my hat's real low 

Or do I look like a mind reader, sir? I don't know 

Am I under arrest or should I guess some mo? 

"Well you was doing fifty-five in the fifty-four", uh huh 

"License and registration and step out of the car 

"Are you carrying a weapon on you, I know a lot of you are" 

I ain't stepping out of shit, all my papers legit 

"Well do you mind if I look around the car a little bit?" 

Well my glove compartment is locked, so is the trunk and the back 

And I know my rights so you goin' need a warrant for that 

"Aren't you sharp as a tack? You some type of lawyer or something? 

"Somebody important or something?" 

Child, I ain't passed the bar, but I know a little bit 

Enough that you won't illegally search my shit 

"Well we'll see how smart you are when the K-9 come" 

I got ninety nine problems but a bitch ain't one, hit me 

Ninety nine problems but a bitch ain't one 

If you having girl problems I feel bad for you son 

I got ninety nine problems but a bitch ain't one, hit me 

Ninety nine problems but a bitch ain't one 

If you having girl problems I feel bad for you son 

I got ninety nine problems but a bitch ain't one, hit me 

Now once upon a time not too long ago 

A nigga like myself had to strong arm a hoe 

This is not a hoe in the sense of having a pussy 

But a pussy having no goddamn sense try and push me 

I tried to ignore 'em, talk to the Lord 

Pray for 'em, cause some fools just love to perform 

You know the type, loud as a motorbike 

But wouldn't bust a grape in a fruit fight 

The only thing that's goin' happen is I'ma get to clapping and 

He and his boys goin' be yapping to the captain 

And there I go trapped in the Kit Kat again 

Back through the system with the riff raff again 

Fiends on the floor scratching again 

Paparazzi's with they cameras, snapping them 

D.A. tried to give a nigga shaft again 

Half a mil for bail cause I'm African 

All because this fool was harassing them 

Trying to play the boy like he's saccharine 

But ain't nothing sweet 'bout how I hold my gun 

I got ninety nine problems being a bitch ain't one, hit me 

Ninety nine problems but a bitch ain't one 

If you having girl problems I feel bad for you son 

I got ninety nine problems but a bitch ain't one, hit me 

Ninety nine problems but a bitch ain't one 

If you having girl problems I feel bad for you son 

I got ninety nine problems but a bitch ain't one, hit me 

Having girl problems I feel bad for you son 

I got ninety nine problems and a bitch ain't one 

You're crazy for this one, Rick, it's your boy
