Ghetto Serenade

[ VERSE 1: W.C. ] Back in the days when I was tryin to come up in the rap game Livin like a [???], bustlin spare change Drivin a bucket, livin in a shack Tryin to make the best out of what I had, usin a pen and pad There was this girlie that I wanted to get with Who never gave me no play, because I wasn't rollin She said I was too ghetto, and that a brother from the ghetto Couldn't give her nothin but hard times and trouble But bein I was young and dumb And just thinkin bout the putang, had me sprung I used to play myself late at night goin over her house, drinkin 40s Standin on the front porch singin oldies And even though her father used to run me away I used to creep around the side and hit the backgate Tappin on her window, givin her the Ghetto Serenade And it went this way [ CHORUS ] You've got somethin that keeps my head in a spin You've got somethin that makes me wanna give in You've got somethin that turns my head all around
