Shorty Was Da Bomb

Uh, yeah, yeah, yeah (not this sh- again)

Dog gon' be a dog, I mean? Mother-

Don't get a dog, you can't take care of a dog

(Gotta take care of the dog) you know, you know

Take it easy, lady, you know? Uh-huh

Give me a motherfu- break, will ya?

Shorty was the bomb, brown skin honey with a little dough

Come to find out she was a little, but still yo, I pushed up

Shorty had that a- like bloaw!

Had me scheming on how I could get that now

Was like girlfriend (what?!) let me drop a bug in yo' ear

She was mine 'cause I told her what she wanted to hear

Was like, yeah, she knew how it was going down

She said page me, code zero, 'cause I know you get around

Didn't have a man, but even if she did, dead

'Cause my game is tight like a stocking cap on a ni- head

I said, "We'll get up like nine or something"

Don't act like, when I say that a- is mine, I'm frontin' (aight)

That night was right, she let me get that, hit that (uh, uh)

Rip that, bounce it off the walls, flip that (uh, uh, uh, whoo)

But only one thing went wrong, the ru- bust

But I didn't fuss 'cause Dog, Shorty was the bomb (aight)

Shorty (uh)

We only did it for that night

But man, the - was good (uh-huh)

But shorty's - up my life, - up my life

Shorty (uh)

We only did it for that night (just one mothe- night, man)

But man, the - was good

But shorty's - up my life (uh-huh)

C'mon, ma, give me a break

A few days later, I hit her up, just to keep it real (aight)

Was like, "What's up, boo? How you been? How you feel?" (Aight)

She said, "Aight, but my friend's kinda late

Today's the 13th, and it shoulda been here on the eighth"

I'm like, "For real? Don't stress it, it'll come

It better, 'cause I can't afford another, little one"

She said, "Neither can I"

I said, "Cool 'cause I got mad - to do, and you still going to school"

So at least we had the same thing in mind (uh-huh)

Not to have this kid, and everything would be fine

But I was blind to the fact that she was setting me up for the kill (c'mon)

Damn, why wasn't she on the pill?

And I still would check on her, like, once a week

Sometimes I hit it, sometimes I didn't, but Shorty was a freak

And whenever I would speak on the baby

Shorty would be like, "I ain't having this kid, is you crazy?"

Shorty, uh-huh (uh)

We only did it for that night (man, listen man, one mother- night)

But man, the - was good (I ain't gon' front)

But Shorty's - up my life (oh man this - is a - headache)

- up my life

Shorty (uh)

(Shorty was definitely a bomb Dog)

We only did it for that night (One motherfu- night, and I was drunk)

But man, the - was good (man! Let me tell you)

But Shorty's - up my life (Dog, this - is a problem)

C'mon, ma, give me a break

By now, wasn't looking too good

'Cause she wasn't doing things that she told me she would

Like getting the price checked out for what we had to do

And it goes up another yard for every month after two and a half

I had to laugh out of frustration (what?)

Now she's four months, I'm ready to hit the bus station (man)

If I was still on that sh-, it woulda made me rob her

Told her friends, "DMX? Yeah, that's my baby's father" (uh-oh)

Her lil' stomach is showing (uh-huh)

So now the heat is on

Maybe she'll see the light if I start to treat her wrong

Like if she thought that if she kept the baby, she would keep me (what?)

So I played the game on her level, got sneaky (aight)

Let her have the kid, she said it was premature (uh-huh)

Found out she was six months when she said she was four (uh-huh)

So I left her with the pressure on the next man's arm

But she'll be aight, 'cause Shorty was the bomb (for real)

Shorty (uh)

(Was the bomb)

We only did it for that night (I mean what, one - night? C'mon Ma)

But man, the - was good

But Shorty's - up my life (now this bi- won't stop calling, what the - man?)

- up my life

Shorty (uh)

(She was kinda cute though)

We only did it for that night (all it takes is one night, man, haha)

But man, the - was good (mm-mm-mm)

But Shorty's - up my life (this -, has got to go)

C'mon, ma, give me a break
