[Verse 1]
[A]My daddy had [Asus4]a small h[D]ouse
Up on the east [Gm]side[C]

Threw me the peace [Gm]sign
[C](oh[D] yeah)
Moved to the big [A]city
[D]Now[F#m] we sit,
[D]kil[Gm]ling (al[C]rig[D]ht)
My daddy [Asus4]growed up
[A]When tim[D]es was hard and gritty
[Gm](oh [C]yeah[D])

Whether looking for love?
Are you looking for fame?
Before you go off
Better know the game, oh
