"I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa"

("I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa")

("Call me Big Pop-pa"...)

[Intro: Notorious B.I.G., Jermaine Dupri]

(Get up, get out, get up, get out) Yeah

Uh... uh, uh... (Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up)

Yeah... representin' BK to the fullest

Uh... with the remix! (Uhh!)

(Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up) Uh

Shhh...


[Verse 1: Notorious B.I.G.]

To all the ladies in the place with style and grace

Allow me to lace these lyrical douches in your bushes

Who rock grooves and make moves with all the mamis?

The back of the club, sippin' Moët is where you'll find me

The back of the club, mackin' hoes, my crew's behind me

Mad question askin', blunt passin', music blastin' – but I just can't quit

Because one of these honeys Biggie got to creep with

Sleep with, keep the ep' a secret

Why not?

Why blow up my spot 'cause we both got hot

Now, check it – I got more Mack than Craig, and in the bed

Believe me, sweetie, I got enough to feed the needy

No need to be greedy, I got mad friends with Benz's

C-Notes by the layers, true fuckin' players

Jump in the Rover and come over, tell your friends

Jump in the GS3, I got the chronic by the tree, 'cause...

[Chorus: Notorious B.I.G. & Faith Evans, vocal sample, (Jermaine Dupri)]

"I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa"

Throw your hands in the air, if you's a true playa

"I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa"

To the honeys gettin' money, playin' niggas like dummies (Uh!)

"I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa"

You got a gun up in your waist, please don't shoot up the place (Why?)

'Cause I see some ladies tonight that should be havin' my ba-by

[Verse 2: Notorious B.I.G., uncredited female voice]

Uh, straight up, honey – really, I'm asking

Most of these niggas think they be mackin', but they be actin'

Who they attractin' with that line?

"What's your name? What's your sign?"

Soon as he buy that wine, I just creep up from behind

Ask you what your interests are, "Who you be wit'?"

Things to make you smile, what numbers to dial

"You gon' be here for a while?

I'm gon' call my crew, you go call your crew

We can rendezvous at the bar around 2 – or 3 o' clock"

Lil' Cease pull the truck up out the parking lot

Roll a blunt, 'cause he like to spark a lot

Steam on the way to the telly, go fill my belly

A T-bone steak, cheese eggs, and Welch's Grape

Conversate for a few, 'cause in a few, we gon' do

What we came to do, ain't that right, boo? (Truuuue)

Forget the telly, we just go to the crib

And watch a mov–ay, in the jacuzz–ay (Bay-bay!)

[Chorus: Notorious B.I.G. & Faith Evans, vocal sample, (Jermaine Dupri)]

"I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa"

Throw your hands in the air, if you's a true playa

"I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa"

To the honeys gettin' money, playin' niggas like dummies (Uh!)

"I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa"

You got a gun up in your waist, please don't shoot up the place (Why?)

'Cause I see some ladies tonight that should be havin' my ba-by

[Verse 3: Notorious B.I.G., (Jermaine Dupri)]

(How does a true playa lay it?)

Nigga, Versace down, Donna Karan (Yes...)

Diamonds glarin', niggas starin'

Now I got my pants draggin' in the Benz wagon (Uh-huh)

Ragged, sippin' D.P, on my way to D.C. 

(We be) The biggest willies, smokin' Phillies (Uh)

Thai and skunk together, Junior MAFIA forever

Thuggin' to see youngin' – and you knows that

I steps in, "Where the Mo's and the hoes at?" (Baybee!)

Niggas know the tender on the COOGI sweater, butter leather

Chrome Beretta – see

You know who that nigga be


[Interlude: Jermaine Dupri]

Shit... you ain't know? Ha ha ha...

That's the stride for '95, baby

Straight up playerlistic mentality (Right...)

You know what I'm sayin'? So you do yo' thang

'Cause I'm definitely gon' do mine

And we can hook-up a lil' later and do things you ain't ne'er even thought of

Can ya feel me?

[Chorus: Notorious B.I.G. & Faith Evans, vocal sample, (Jermaine Dupri)]

"I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa"

Throw your hands in the air, if you's a true playa

"I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa"

To the honeys gettin' money, playin' niggas like dummies (Uh!)

"I love it when you call me Big Pop-pa"

You got a gun up in your waist, please don't shoot up the place (Why?)

'Cause I see some ladies tonight that should be havin' my ba-by
