JD:

I don't think y'all can handle this

I don't really think Y'all can handle this

Mo,I don't think they can handle this

I don't really think they can handle this

Monica:

*I'm too hood for you

I ain't trying to act too good for you

I'm just trying to tell you what's real and true

Baby,I don't think you can handle this(I'm too)

I'm too hood for you

Tell me what you know about

ridin on chrome, bout

hair braided up with the golds in your mouth.

Nothing,nothing(I'm too)*

I don't wanna pull your card

Play you out,call you soft

But the line you just kicked to me

It won't get you nowhere with me

I can see that you are not

The kind of guy that I like

Me and you could never be

You're too nice and just too pretty and...

(Repeat*)

It's not your fault I'm from the hood

I love' em bad and hate' em good

To keep it real with you honestly

That's the only type of figure that can handle me

All tidied it up or faded up

A player that don't give a what

I'm the only one he lets inside

When he does it's ride or die

That's why I'm...

(Repeat *)

I try not to let it show

Something said,Mo,let it go

And let yourself be free

'Cause I can take myself out of the hood

But I can't take the hood out of me

I'm a gangsta,got diamonds in my teeth

So ghetto,yeah,just one of these

I gotta have the heart to play the part

And talk the talk to walk these streets

I'm too hood

JD:

Call it what you like

Sometimes I like to fight

Get fly,get high

Party all night

Keep at lease five grand

In my pocket in a rubber band

Only rock it if it's name brand

You know

Prada,Gucci,Polo whatever

The car

Gotta have in wood grain and leather

The shoes

They gotta be twenties or better

I don't care if you're in a Benz or a Jetta

Ladies with tattoos

About three or four

Of somebody's name

You don't even see no more

And you gotta have the flings

Some rings or a neckpiece

Bracelet or studs in your eat at lease

Fellows with more than two BM's

That's too hood

Girls that dress like Lil' Kim

That's too hood

Can talk without cursing gold teeth

And Mel K,all that's

I'm just too hood

(Repeat* 3 times with ad lib)
