Lyrics
Oakland (Oh-oh-oh-Oakland)
Oaktown (Oh-oh-oh-Oaktown)
Oakland (Oakland, Oakland)
Oh-oh-oh-Oaktown
Straight from the West, Oakland is the best
Baby, it's so fresh (Oakland)
It's called the Big Bad O, city of players on the go
You gotta have Trues and Vogues (Oakland)
Baby, that's my town, when all the tops come down
You'll hear my funky sound (Oh-oh-oh-Oaktown)
O-A-K-L-A-N-D, that city was made for me
Just rocking to the beat (Oakland)
Drop tops rolling down the strip, baby, it's the tip
Don't stop dipping it till I quit (Oaktown)
Trues and Vogues on my car, baby, I'm a star
I'm playing at Player's Park (Oakland)
Everybody on the floor, do you really want some more?
We'll get funky like Playboy $hort (Oh-oh-oh-Oaktown)
Oakland (Oakland, Oh-Oaktown)
Oakland
Oh-oh-oh-oak, Oak-oak-oak-Oaktown
Westside coming through, Northside coming to it, too
East Oakland, it's for you (Oakland)
Californ-I-A, can you hear me say
Oakland is here to stay (Oakland)
Oakland (Oh-oh-oh-oh-Oakland)
Oaktown (Oh-oh-oh-Oaktown)
Oakland (Oh-oh-Oakland)
Oaktown
Straight from the West, Oakland is the best
Baby, it's so fresh (Oakland)
Oakland (Oh-oh-oh-Oakland)
Oakland, Oakland
Straight from the West, Oakland is the best
Baby, it's so fresh (Oakland)
Drop tops roll down the strip, baby, that's the tip
Don't stop dipping it till I quit (Oakland)
Trues and Vogues on my car, baby, I'm a star
I'm playing at Player's Park (Oakland)
Oakland (Oh-oh-oh-oh-Oakland)
Oakland, Oaktown, Oakland, Oh-oh-oh-oh-Oaktown
