[Chorus: E-40]

Uh-iz-I, uh-iz-I, should I save her?

I wanna be saved

Uh-iz-I, uh-iz-I, should I save her?

I wanna be saved

Uh-iz-I, uh-iz-I, should I save her?

I wanna be saved

Uh-iz-I, uh-iz-I, should I save her?

I wanna be saved


[Verse 1: B-Legit]

It's 1993 and niggas need to miss me, be savin' these hoes

You know how these tricks be, be buyin' 'em clothes

Wanna taxi hoes on Vogues with the beat

And have 'em sittin' next to 'em in the front seat

But not B, see, I'm a hog up out the V

And my motto is fuck a ho and hit the throttle

'Til there's smoke, talkin' on my okie-doke

Worldwide I got a Clydes' up in Tokyo


[Verse 2: E-40]

Look up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane

What's that nigga's name? Captain Save a Hoe, mayne

More faster than a speedin' bullet

To put on his cape, his card, I pulled it

Fake the-fake the funk-the funk

Not me, that's not the way to do it

Captain motherfuckin' Save a Hoe came to me

Flashin' just like a little ol' batch all up in front of my company

Had to check his ass with an ear check thump and punked him

Talkin' to him while I'm beatin' his ass, pumpin' fear, talkin' about, "Nigga, you gon' retrospect somethin' here"


[Chorus: E-40]

Uh-iz-I, uh-iz-I, should I save her?

I wanna be saved

Uh-iz-I, uh-iz-I, should I save her?

I wanna be saved

Uh-iz-I, uh-iz-I, should I save her?

I wanna be saved

Uh-iz-I, uh-iz-I, should I save her?

I wanna be saved


[Verse 3: D-Shot]

Mr. Super Trick, Mr. Super Snitch, yeah

You wanna kill me 'cause I fucked your bitch

You should've had your cape on tight that night

'Cause a nigga like the Shot sure plugs 'em right

And now your bitch is straight callin' me, lovin' me

On the under for the porno star that I be

And don't you come in my face with that trick shit

You better try some more shit


[Verse 4: E-40]

I got the gift to grab any batch that I want, but I don't

'Cause batches now days'll get you caught up in some funk

Oh no, I'm not tryin' to save you hoes, and

How come when I was broke you wasn't brown nosin'?

The other day you see me smobbin' down Magazine

With some ol' nigga in your car lookin' at me mean

I stopped in the middle of the street, reached under my seat to grab my heat

Man, that's the same motherfucker that I got into it with at the club last week


[Verse 5: B-Legit]

Man, them niggas can't fade, they bitch made and so they start

But niggas with no heart don't want no parts of this

Nigga rollin' with the Funk Mobb

And when it's funk, the pump will spit them double-aughts

So what you doin' when we roll through you hideout?

Let my MAC get off and then I rides out

With your ass there smokin' like a incense

You savin' hoes, nigga, and that's bitch shit


[Chorus: E-40]

Uh-iz-I, uh-iz-I, should I save her?

I wanna be saved


[Verse 6: Suga-T]

I'm crossin' up niggas and bitches and even snitches just for my riches

Captain Save a Hoe, I ain't got no problem with that ol' shit

I gives a damn as long as he's payin'

It ain't my fault because he's sprung off my layin'

I'm takin' GA checks, go to the bank, Hank

If your breath stank, you gets ganked, mayne

Long as a trick comes fallin' down

That gives me all the sets to put on my suit and clown


[Verse 7: E-40]

But make that nigga take care of your kids

Make that nigga call your kids his

Make that nigga get out there and work

Make his ass buy you a Dooney & Bourke

It's all part of that, "Nigga, take care of me

Pussy-whipped nigga, come save me"

Batches out there be on the lookout

For Captain Save a Hoe 'cause he's savin' hoes


[Chorus: E-40]

Uh-iz-I, uh-iz-I, should I save her?

I wanna be saved

Uh-iz-I, uh-iz-I, should I save her?

I wanna be saved

Uh-iz-I, uh-iz-I, should I save her?

I wanna be saved

Uh-iz-I, uh-iz-I, should I save her?

I wanna be saved


[Post-Chorus]

I wanna be saved

I wanna be saved

I wanna be saved

I wanna be saved


[Outro: Captain Save 'Em]

Fuck that, what they talkin' about

Man, I'll save a ho, hahahaha

Yeah, baby, what's up? You wanna get your nails done?

Come on, let's go down to Lee to Kim's Nails, yeah, hahaha

We'll get your nails done, get your hair done

What about your kids? How many kids you got? Two?

Aw, that's cool, yeah, we can go feed and clothe them kids

We'll get the— go down, get the hook up at Durant Square

Yeah, baby I'll do anything for you

Want your phone turned on? I'll get it turned on in my name

Matter of fact, I'll get you a cellular phone and a pager

We'll get that package deal down there at, uh, Cellular One

Baby, I'm— I'm here for you, I got you
