Coolin' on the corner with the cellular phone

You could tell that the East Bay was his home

More mail than the rest of the pushers

'Cause he got a TEC-9 in the bushes

And that's how his shit was handled

First name Jack, last name Daniels

Had two boys named E and J

E had the nine and J the AK

Clocked on a street called Hennessy

Rivals with a motherfucker named Ol' E

E had a bitch and her name was Gin

Had a nigga named Juice doin' time in the pen

You couldn't tell that Gin was a bitch though

'Cause she was fuckin' some nigga named Cisco

E and J knew tonight they'd come

With two fat niggas named Bacardi and Rum

They capped Jack's ho and the sight was scary

The bitch was all bloody and her name was Mary

Officer Martini wiped up the body

And all fingers pointed at Rum and Bacardi

E and J told Jack the whole tale

So Jack tried to bail Juice out the jail

But Ol' E had the judge on a payroll clout

So Jack shot the judge up and broke Juice out

Now everybody's talkin' 'bout Gin and Juice

Juice shot Gin 'cause the bitch was loose

Now E is shook thinkin' they ain't gonna get me

I'll round up the posse and call up Mickey

Mickey was big, he only sold eight balls

Had 99 niggas up against the wall

E and J found out he made the call

So E and J and Jack and Juice nined them all

They were sent to the morgue and Mickey paid the bill

Got the money from the bitch workin' Strawberry Hill

Jack and Juice said Mickey wouldn't survive

But Mickey was slick he had a Colt 45

And now he's wonderin' how he got the word

It was the neighborhood wino Thunderbird

You wonder how the murder rap got so much juice

It was 187 proof

Check it out!

Mickey sent St. Ides after Thunderbird

Time for the hurricane, E said word

Thunderbird in an alley way wearin' a beanie

Tryin' to get a sip from the cop Mr. Martini

St. Ides screwed off Thunderbird's top

Spilled his drink and gave a swig to the cop

But it's too late Martini knows it all

Mickey and his boy Ol' E were slingin' eight balls

Of cocaine to the strawberries on the hill

So when he asked for Juice he got a quick fill

Mickey had his boy on Bourbon block

The murderous cop killer Mr. Peppermint Schnapps

Mickey had this thing about nosy cops

And it made Mr. Peppermint lose his top

Martini off duty waitin' for the night train

Didn't know his wife Champagne would ever see him again

Peppermint Schnapps creepin' with the Colt 45

Gotta peel his cap 'fore the train arrives

Gotta stay Lowenbrau here comes the train

All aboard! Said the engineers Bartles and Jaymes

There was a toot from the train and then a gun blast

Martini fell on the ground there was a big splash

Mr. Schnapps got up because the cops chased him

St. Ides and Mickey in a 'vette ready in front of the station

But you know Jack and Juice was undercover

And Jack was mad because Mickey shot his lover

There was big shootout and Mickey got juiced

He couldn't hang with the 187 proof

Juice is splattered and St. Ides had took a fall

And then Endo smoked 'em all

Check it out!
