79rs Bout to Blow

79rs 'bout to blow (I know)

We done came, pushed in the door (For sure)

Playing with the gang, we holding court (And they know)

Where I'm from we trained to go (The N.O.)

79rs 'bout to—

Say, I'm a young Big Chief, I'm down in New Orleans

And I be ringing them drums and them tambourines

I use a needle and thread just to sew my suit

On that Mardi Gras mornin', I be all brand-new

79rs 'bout to blow (I know)

We done came, pushed in the door (For sure)

Playing with the gang, we holding court (And they know)

Where I'm from we trained to go (The N.O.)

79rs 'bout to blow (I know)

We done came, pushed in the door (For sure)

Playing with the gang, we holding court (And they know)

I'ma rep the Ninth Ward 'til I'm six feet deep

But I be repping 79rs while I'm running the streets

Seventh Ward, Ninth Ward come together as one

Claiborne to New Orleans, nobody run

79rs 'bout to blow (I know)

We done came, pushed in the door (For sure)

Playing with the gang, we holding court (And they know)

Where I'm from we trained to go (The N.O.)

We done came, pushed in the door (For sure)

79rs 'bout to blow, just know I told you so

So when we tear the city up, don't say you didn't know

Opportunity, preparation for the Carnival morning

'Cause when my gang strike, we give no warning

Say, the 79rs Gang, may we never depart

'Cause when we sing these songs, it come from the heart

I'm rocking this song, my thoughts and me

We got a tag team, boy, that's hard to beat

79rs 'bout to blow (I know)

We done came, pushed in the door (For sure)

Playing with the gang, we holding court (They know)

Where I'm from we trained to go (The N.O.)

79rs 'bout to—

Playing with my gang, they ain't messing with that

The whole gang on the streets, and they on the attack

Walking 'round the Seventh Ward, got a lot on my mind

Got a lot of stuff to do, but I ain't got time

We done came in this game, it's time for a change

Kept it real and stayed down, created our own lane

We the H, the I, the "in," the C

"Head Indians in Charge," you know who we be

79rs 'bout to blow (I know)

We done came, pushed in the door (For sure)

Playing with the gang, we holding court (And they know)

Where I'm from we trained to go (The N.O.)

79rs 'bout to blow (I know)

We done came, pushed in the door (For sure)

Playing with the gang, we holding court (And they know)

Where I'm from we trained to go (The N.O.)
