One More Day Lyrics - Singles - Nate Dogg

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 

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 corner store 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 

One more day, one more 

One more day 

One more day, one more 

One more day 

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 ask 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, thank you for one more day 

One more day, one more 

One more day 

One more day, one more 

One more day 

One more day, one more 

One more day 

One more day, one more 

One more day
