Why Lyrics - Singles - Nate Dogg

Why did my homie have to die 

With the tears in my eyes 

I came to say goodbye 

Say goodbye 

Why did my homie have to die 

With the tears in my eyes 

I came to say goodbye 

Say goodbye 

Just passin' through to let you know 

That I remember the times we shared 

Your mother prayed for us both night and day 

I guess this is what she feared 

The picture in my room keeps your image sharply in my head 

All in my head 

I just can't let go of the memories I had 

Will this madness ever end? 

Why did my homie have to die 

With the tears in my eyes 

I came to say goodbye 

Say goodbye 

Sometimes I wonder if it's better 

To be free or be in jail 

Incarceration at this time to me 

Is better than heaven or hell 

I often wonder if you'd still be here 

If you had worn your vest, worn your vest 

You most likely soon see me we'll all be a memory 

If we don't change this mess, change it or we gone y'all 

Why did my homie have to die 

With the tears in my eyes 

I came to say goodbye 

Say goodbye 

Hi, passing you through to let you know 

Passing you through to let you know 

That I, gonna tell everyone I know 

Gonna tell everyone I know 

How we, used to send them to the floor 

Used to send them to the floor 

Have we, have we forgot to mourn 

Ohh, how long, how long, how long will they mourn 

Ohh, how long, how long, how long will they mourn 

Why did my homie have to die 

With the tears in my eyes 

I came to say goodbye 

Say goodbye 

Why did my homie have to die 

With the tears in my eyes 

I came to say goodbye 

Say goodbye 

Why did my homie have to die 

With the tears in my eyes 

I came to say goodbye 

Say goodbye
