[Intro: Nelly]

Mmmmmmmm (Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Where they at? Where they at?

Where they at? Where they at?

Where they at? Where they at?

Where they at?

Come on now


[Chorus: Nelly]

If you wanna go and take a ride with me

You're three-wheeling in the fo' with the gold D's

Oh, why do I live this-a-way? (Hey, must be the money)

If you wanna go and get high with me

Smoke a L in the back of the Benz-E

Oh, why must I feel this-a-way? (Hey, must be the money)


[Verse 1: Nelly]

In the club on a late night, feeling right, lookin', tryna spot somethin' real nice

Looking for a little shawty I noticed, so that I can take her home (I can take her home)

She can be eighteen, eighteen with a attitude, or nineteen, kinda snotty, actin' real rude

Boo, as long as you a thicky, thicky, thick girl, you know that it's on (You know that it's on)

I peep somethin' coming towards me on the dance floor, sexy and real slow (Ayy)

Sayin' she be peepin' and, "I dig the last video, somewhere, Nelly, can we go?"

How could I tell her no? Her measurements was 36-25-34 (Nelly)

I like the way you brush your hair

And I like those stylish clothes you wear

I like the way the light hit the ice and glare

And I can see you groovin' way over there (Come on)


[Chorus: Nelly]

If you wanna go and take a ride with me

You're three-wheeling in the fo' with the gold D's

Oh, why do I live this-a-way? (Hey, must be the money)

If you wanna go and get high with me

Smoke a L in the back of the Benz-E

Oh, why must I feel this-a-way? (Hey, must be the money)


[Verse 2: Nelly]

Mama poppin', face and body Frontenac, don't know how to act

Without no vouchers on her boots, she's bringin' nothin' back

You should feel the impact, shoppin' with plastic

When the sky's the limit and them haters can't get past that

Watch me as I gas that four dot six Range

Watch the candy paint change every time I switch lanes

It feel strange now

Makin' a livin' off my brain instead of 'caine now

I got the title from my mama

Put the whip in my own name now

Damn, shit done changed now

Runnin' credit checks with no shame now

I feel the fame now (C'mon), I can't complain now (No more)

Shit, I'm the man now, in and out my own town

I'm gettin' pages outta New Jersey from Courtney B

Tellin' me about a party up in NYC

And can I make it? Damn right, I be on the next flight

Payin' cash, first class, sitting next to Vanna White (C'mon)


[Chorus: Nelly]

If you wanna go and take a ride with me

You're 3-wheeling in the fo' with the gold D's

Oh, why do I live this way? (Hey, must be the money)

If you wanna go and get high with me

Smoke a L in the back of the Benz-E

Oh, why must I feel this way? (Hey, must be the money)

If you wanna go and take a ride with me

You're 3-wheeling in the fo' with the gold D's

Oh, why do I live this way? (Hey, must be the money)

If you wanna go and get high with me

Smoke a L in the back of the Benz-E

Oh, why must I feel this way? (Hey, must be the money)


[Bridge: Nelly]

Check, check, yo

I know somethin' you don't know

And I've got somethin' to tell ya

You won’t believe how many people straight doubted the flow

Most said that I was a failure

But now the same motherfuckers asking me for dough

And I'm yellin', "I can't help ya"

"But, Nelly, can we get tickets to the next show?"

Hell nah (What's with you?), you for real?


[Verse 3: City Spud]

Ayo, now that I'm a fly guy and I fly high

Niggas wanna know why (Wha'?), why I fly by

But yo, it's all good, Range Rover, all wood

Do me like you should, fuck me good, suck me good

We be them stud niggas, wishing you us niggas

Poppin' like we drug dealers, sippin' Crissy, bub', mackin'

Honey in the club, me in the Benz

Icy Cris', telling me to leave with you and your friends

So if shawty wanna knock, we knockin' to this

And if shawty wanna rock, we rockin' to this

And if shawty wanna pop, we popping the Crist'

Shawty wanna see the ice, then I ice the wrist

City talk, Nelly listen, Nelly talk, City listen

When I fuck fly bitches, when I walk, pay attention

See the ice and the gliss', niggas starin', know they diss

Honeys look, know they wish

Come on, boo, gimme kiss (C'mon)


[Chorus: Nelly]

If you wanna go and take a ride with me

You're 3-wheeling in the fo' with the gold D's

Oh, why do I live this way?

(Hey, must be the money)

If you wanna go and get high with me

Smoke a L in the back of the Benz-E

Oh, why must I feel this way?

(Hey, must be the money)

If you wanna go and take a ride with me

You're 3-wheeling in the fo' with the gold D's

Oh, why do I live this way?

(Hey, must be the money!)

If you wanna go and get high with me

Smoke a L in the back of the Benz-E

Oh, why must I feel this way?

(Hey, must be the money)

Hey, must be the money

Hey, must be the money

Hey, must be the money

Must be the money

If you wanna go and take a ride with me

You're 3-wheeling in the fo' with the gold D's

Oh, why do I live this way?

(Hey, must be the money)

If you wanna go and get high with me

Smoke a L in the back of the Benz-E

Oh, why must I feel this way?
