Bad Company Lyrics

What kinda music do you listen to?
Gangsta Gangsta
Uh huh, huh
Is that right?
Uh huh uh huh
Right right

Chorus:
[KAM]
Bad Company (uh huh 8 8)
Bad Company
Bad Company (riders)
These the ones that be corruptin' yo hood
Everytime you see em they up to no good
Bad Company
They love to label us mad or a menace
But I'm steady screamin' "business"

[Solo]
New to the hood had no clue what's a BG
Grew up ET now 2 wanna see me (where he from huh?)
Who got the dice? (t-lee)
Hangin' with bad company now he runnin' from the PD
He'da been the fastest in the NFL
Look rookie, you catch no passes in jail
He in homeroom actin a tail
Sags tax when he bail
And don't care if he pass or he fail
Cuz he a gangsta
Cocked, one in the chamber
Taught to do what you gotta to be the remainder
Up rolls a stranger
And it's a cliff hanger
And all he thought was DANGER!
(Bad Company)
Uh huh, heard it corrupts good morals
Caught up in the midst of another hood quarrel
They started dumpin right in front of the pad
And what's harder he's now a martyr cuz his company's bad
Chorus:
[KAM]
Bad Company (po po! time to go)
Bad Company (they bad company)
Bad Company (riders riders)
These the ones that be corruptin' yo hood
Everytime you see em they up to no good
Bad Company
They love to label us mad or a menace
But I'm steady screamin' "business"

It's bad company

So bad so bad so bad so bad (uh huh)
So bad

[Elway Da Great]
I was the innocent little homie
Left without direction
Had to suffer for my lessons
Made a tougher adolescent
My momma stressin' got me turnin up the song loud
Runnin' with the wrong crowd
Drank until we fall out
I never liked school - over the edge
Now they tellin' me my twin used to work for the feds (what?)
Found dead before crackin' the case
And they wantin me to act in his place
50 G's are the accurate stakes (mmm hmmm)
Pumpin' my brakes lookin' over the case
Dealin' with blood money so we dealin' with safes
Money in a crumply bag (aww naww)
Caught up in a twist with my company bad
It's bad company
Chorus:
[KAM]
Bad Company (uh huh)
Bad Company
Bad Company (riders riders)
These the ones that be corruptin' yo hood
Everytime you see em they up to no good
Bad Company
They love to label us mad or a menace
But I'm steady screamin' "business"

[KAM]
I don't care what you goin through
Use it abuse it
Exploit it it's ownin you
Them the ones that take our kindess for weakness
Mentally and spiritually blind us and sneak us
These the ones that be corruptin' yo hood
Everytime you see em they up to no good
Bad Company
They love to label us mad or a menace
But I'm steady screamin' "business"
Business...
