Heyyy, Ho (This is the way we ball)

Ah ha, Houston, Texas (This is the way we ball)

Ah ha (This is the way we ball)

(This is the way we ball)

[Chorus]

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss

I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty South

(This is the way we ball)

And we ridin blades, Jags and Escalades

We third coast boys but we always gettin paid

(This is the way we ball)

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss

I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty South

(This is the way we ball)

And we ridin blades, Jags and Escalades

We third coast boys but we always gettin paid

(This is the way we ball)

[Verse One]

I'm Lil' Flip, I'm back on the scene, freestyle king

Brand new piece, same byzentine

I'm still sippin lean, I'm still watchin "Scream"

I love wearin platinum, but my favorite color's green

I'm hoppin out Ferraris, my house is three stories

I'm still independent cause Jive couldn't afford me

The meetings were boring, for real I was snoring

The VP was fine, yeah she made me kinda horny

But that's another story, let's get back to the topic

Right now me and Hump negotiatin to buy the Rockets

We might buy the Comets - name it, I done it

If you see it and want it, buy it, own it

This is for my homies, Pat and DJ Screw

R.I.P. dawg cause I really miss you

Boy I'ma stay true, until the day I fall

East coast and West coast, this is how we ball

[Chorus]

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss

I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty South

(This is the way we ball)

And we ridin blades, Jags and Escalades

We third coast boys but we always gettin paid

(This is the way we ball)

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss

I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty South

(This is the way we ball)

And we ridin blades, Jags and Escalades

We third coast boys but we always gettin paid

(This is the way we ball)

[Verse Two]

I'm thinkin - designer clothes and fashion shows

I'm thinkin - all my albums goin platinum and gold

I'm thinkin - Jaguars and a Bentley Rolls

I'm thinkin - bein rich before I'm 24

I'm feelin - wood grain all in my tinted truck

I'm fillin - all my teeth up with princess cuts

I'm fillin - jugs up, no mo empty cups

I'm feelin - like I'm worth 10 million bucks

And I know - I wear a watch, yo it was made from a game

And I know - my rims chop like the blades on a plane

And I know - yo baby mama still givin me brain

And I know - that ain't platinum, that's a silvery chain

And I make - nothin but hits when I step in the booth

And I make - rainbows from the sun reflect on my tooth

And I make - DVD's light up in my coupe

I think I feel I know I makin' money, how bout you?

[Chorus]

[Verse Three]

I'm swangin, about to rip the kizzerp, sippin on my syzzerp

If you buy first from me then you just bought a dizzert

Swangas on my whizzeel, platinum in my grizzeel

Me and Doby D stay blowin on some kizzeel

I'm higher than a hizzeel, mind on a mizzell

Southside of H-town show me how you fizzeel

Now you see we ball, now you see we rich

I represent the legendary Screwed Up Click

I wreck I-45, I wreck 2 Screw tapes

I'm 3 wheelin, poppin trunk, goin down Fuqua

So move out of my way cause I'm ridin double R

MJ right behind me in a Lexus bubble car

[Chorus]

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss

I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty South

(This is the way we ball)

And we ridin blades, Jags and Escalades

We third coast boys but we always gettin paid

(This is the way we ball)

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss

I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty South

(This is the way we ball)

And we ridin blades, Jags and Escalades

We third coast boys but we always gettin paid

(This is the way we ball)
