I ran the game

[ VERSE 1 ]

A lil' lil' to make the ladies scream

This story is all about a tag team

The plot of the game was to jerk me

One would wind me, and the other would work me

These two were livin life triflin

To the point you would wanna get a rifle and

Blast their brains all the way to oblivion

Sweet Polly Pure and her homegirl Vivian

I first met em in the state of Wisconscin

When I caught ol' Vivy sneakin a peek at my Johnson

You could see that shine on my fronts

I said, 'Go for it, pal, cause you only live once'

I threw a quick glance at ol' Vivy

And she gave the eye that everything was splivy

The moment had arrived, I didn't wanna waste it

All choked up cause my eyes were pasted

On the bumps between her neck and her waistline

And I knew I had to hit her with a bassline

I said, "I'd like to introduce me"

But I wasn't about to let ol' Polly and Vivy juice me

She said, "I seen you clockin us

And I bet that you were thinkin 'bout knockin us

But if you had the chance, now would you?

Better yet, my man, now could you?

I said, "I'ma tell ya, no sense lyin

I be damned if I didn't die tryin"

She said, "I'm just kiddin, and we don't do that"

And I said, "Sure, what train runs through that?"

Like a prospector stakin his claim

You mighta been dealin, but I ran the game

(Yo, yo, place your bets

Word up, I got the bank, yo

He-he-he, word to mother)

(Place your bets)

(Place your bets)

(Place your bets)

You mighta been dealin, but I ran game (2x)

Now Polly wasn't into any regular ritz

With that big bold ass and them rhinestone tits

Just lookin at Vivy had me comin in excess

All I seen was horses on the plains of Texas

I asked them if they knew a place that I could rest at

Kinda hopin they would suggest that

But I still had doubts

And they said, "Come on over to our house"

"Then it's to your place we step to

Here comes my ride, yo James, what kept you?"

I can still see the faces like a snap shot

Like they musta hit the jackpot

I could see em just sneakin and canivin it

The car was borrowed and my homeboy's drivin it

Some freaks, me and James drived past them

I was surprised how quick that gased em

"Before you put up the glass to divide, Sir

Are you planning to ride her?"

"Do we have to go through it?

Put the pedal to the metal, James, now do it"

Vivy sittin with her legs all cocked

I said, 'Goddamn, she gotta get her boots knocked'

Polly asked me where the bar was

And what else this car does

This car is boring and restless

Pussy invitations, I was now on the guest list

They made a few ice teas from Long Island

You're talkin 'bout a brother that's smilin

Like a prospector stakin his claim

You mighta been dealin, but I ran the game

(Yo, yo, place your bets

Word up, I got the bank, yo

He-he-he, word to mother)

(Place your bets)

(Place your bets)

(Place your bets)

You mighta been dealin, but I ran game (2x)

[ VERSE 3 ]

Now Vivy had my limb hard as a bark

I was ready, I was set, and I was on my mark

Like a thoroughbred she was the gait

I yelled, "Time, hold up, wait!"

Before I take my iron and I brand em and bond em

I revealed my super lubricated sensitive condom

She yelled out, "Timber!", and I said, "Fall"

Damn, what the hell James gotta ring the phone for?

Just like a sucker he said he would bust me

"Chill, you're with it, homeboy, trust me"

Turned my back to fix the blind up

And in a glance they both were lined up

I had the whole world in the palm of my hand

And more pussy than a man could stand

Mile after mile I was stickin ol' Vivy

Polly on the side sayin, "Gimme, gimme, gimme"

Up and down, doin it to death

Y'all better hold on, there's a lot more left

There I was, drivin it deeply

The tag was made and Polly yelled, "Freak me!"

So I sent her on a far out trip

Kicked that 'don't you ever leave me on the lonely' tip

I had Polly and Vivy pinned to the mat

1-2-3, and they was out like that

They thought I was a sucker, Mr. Lollypop Man

On the bumps they would always say, "Shan! Shan!"

They were probably thinkin Grants and Franklins

I'm surprised they didn't hear the change shanklin

Since they didn't, that's too bad

About 89 cents, and that was all I had

Now as for Polly and Vivy and their big-time talk

I left them drunk bitches on the sidewalk

Just like a prospector stakin his claim

You mighta been dealin, but I ran the game

(Place your bets)

(Place your bets)

(Place your bets)

You mighta been dealin, but I ran game (2x)
