Gettin' It Lyrics - Gettin' It (album Number Ten) - Too $hort

That's right, album number ten, short dawg's in the house 

It's gettin close to the end y'all 

But we gonna kick it like this on the last album 

Now let me holler at ya partner, spit this game 

In you ear for a minute, quit complaining 

Bout how you can't spend it cause you ain't got it 

You got what it takes but not enough to get started 

I hope you get the message, no it's not a test it's 

Just me ridin legit, they can't arrest me or bust me 

I'm still hungry, I want some more stuff 

Get fat and watch my whole crew blow up 

So get yours, and buy my new album 

Peep the game and don't be like calvin 

Get everything you want, get real, get you mail 

Get your girl to make bail and get your ass out of jail 

You should be gettin it, everything you want 

Everything you dreamed of, never have to front 

You shoulf be gettin it, gettin money 

I'm talking bout you black, don't laugh it ain't funny 

You should get a good lawyer, like johnny cochran 

Swear to tell the truth, hell no I didn't pop him 

Get your kids in school, so they can get an education 

Get a degree, and take a vacation 

You see I got all my game from the streets of california 

Young millionaire with no high school diploma 

Livin real good, taking care of my folks 

Roll up a fat one for the players to smoke 

Short dawg in the house, I know you ain't trippin 

Cause life is too $hort you gotta get in where you fit in 

Stop looking for what you never seem to find 

It ain't what you think you got to read between the lines 

Cause life ain't long, for a young black man 

Tryin to make money doing all he can 

Sellin dope don't ya hope he would go to classb 

But the boy makes money and he makes it fast 

With the twenties on top and the fifties on the bottom 

I fuck the top notches oh yes we got em 

It's been a long time since I first got down 

But I still keep makin these funky sounds 

Get your money man 

Get yours 

You should be gettin it 

Get it while the gettin is good, get it while you can 

You should be gettin it 

Get it while the gettin is good

I know you tired of being broke just hanging out 

You gotta lot a dreams but you can't get out 

The first thing you need to do is set your self some goals 

Think positive, everything else is old 

And work hard, never stop hustlin 

Cause they just love to see the black man strugglin 

(So what are you saying todd? ) 

It's time to come up, put your dollar bills in the air 

He said meet me at the white house and I was there 

Cause I'm one in a million, black man rising 

They wanna keep me down but I always surprise em 

Spend my money in the hood, I know it's all good 

And you should do the same I told you peep the game 

Too $hort, you know I'm the man 

I lend my brother a hand cause I know I can 

I keep going and goin but I'm not the pink bunny 

I'm not beatin on a drum I never stop thinkin money 

I'm gettin all I can if you don't ya slip 

I can't wait to get to heaven just to have a grip 

When I was broke, I couldn't afford a meal 

But now I'm now rich I can't be fake I gots to keep it real 

It's been a long time baby since I first got down 

But it still keep making these funky sounds

The ghetto's been good to me 

I'm never going to turn my back 

The true and living so I got to kick the facts)
