These Are The Tales - Too $hort[00:00:00]
Written by:Stuart Jordan/Todd Anthony Shaw/Xavier E. Hargrove[00:00:00]
These are the tales[00:00:01]
These are the tales[00:00:03]
Tune in to the history channel[00:00:04]
These are the tales learn a lesson b**ch[00:00:06]
These are the tales that I tell so well short dog[00:00:09]
I'm thinking way back it's been a long long time[00:00:12]
In 1980 I wrote my first rhyme[00:00:15]
I like to spit a lot of game[00:00:18]
But back then I was just saying my name[00:00:20]
I had a record player on my stereo[00:00:23]
Got down on my knees with my radio[00:00:26]
From Oakland California with some new sh*t[00:00:29]
I'm sir too short I'm bout to do this[00:00:32]
In 1981 that's where it all begun[00:00:35]
We do it for the money we don't rap for fun[00:00:38]
Five dollar's for a tape too short and Freddy be[00:00:41]
Money in my pocket's all I ever need[00:00:44]
It was me Fred B and Freddy B rack[00:00:47]
Dipped the sermon sticks then we smoked them phat[00:00:50]
While we rapped about the b**ches and all the ho's[00:00:52]
Can't be in the hole trying to ball without vogues[00:00:56]
In '82 you was in the game[00:00:59]
With a falcon cougar or a mustang[00:01:01]
Me and Freddy B used to hit the turfs[00:01:04]
With a bag of tapes putting in work b**ch[00:01:07]
In '83 you hit a house party[00:01:10]
A dollar get you in and a dollar for a drink[00:01:13]
I'm on the turntable smoking get right[00:01:16]
And at mid night I'll be rapping on the mic[00:01:19]
I did the same thing for the next two years[00:01:22]
That's why they say my name when I come through here[00:01:25]
When I was 16 I wanted to be a Mack[00:01:27]
I went to Fremont high with lil' D and black[00:01:30]
Young ballets in the town living real phat[00:01:33]
Never had the sack but I smoked a little crack[00:01:36]
Crushed up in the w**d we call em bass rock caddies[00:01:39]
Going on them grimaces make them ho's call me daddy[00:01:42]
These are the tales these are the tales that I tell so well[00:01:45]
These are the tales these are the tales that I tell so well[00:01:51]
It's been 15 years since that sh*t happened[00:01:57]
But too short don't stop rapping[00:02:00]
In '85 I was on the right page[00:02:02]
Ten thousand niggards short live on stage[00:02:06]
Underground tapes was all they ever heard[00:02:09]
But the whole crowd sang along with me word for word[00:02:11]
And that changed everything[00:02:15]
Went to seventy five girls and hooked up with dean[00:02:17]
Real player ism and that's no joke[00:02:21]
Snort a lot of coke with ho's that like to smoke[00:02:23]
I was making records but wasn't making money[00:02:26]
You can take it seriously or you can think its funny[00:02:29]
By '87 I was on my own started dangerous music[00:02:32]
And I made the song these are the tales the freaky tales[00:02:36]
No radio or video or CD sales[00:02:41]
Six platinum's in a row ice cube and cool J[00:02:44]
Who else did that sh*t short dog from the bay[00:02:47]
These ho's try to play it safe[00:02:50]
But I been macing hard since eighty eight[00:02:53]
And from eighty nine to ninety six[00:02:55]
I was rapping on the mic talking sh*t about a b**ch[00:02:58]
I'll retire 10 times and I'll still be here[00:03:01]
My old records sell about a half a mil' a year[00:03:04]
I say b**ch get naked so pimpishly[00:03:07]
Spit rhymes through decades and centuries[00:03:10]
And b**ches just love my dirty mouth[00:03:13]
When I see you again I'm cuss you out b**ch[00:03:16]
That's my gift now all you rappers get to say that sh*t[00:03:21]
I won't sue you but that's the trademark[00:03:25]
I was a grown ass man when you was playing in the park lil' niggle[00:03:27]
These are the tales these are the tales that I tell so well[00:03:31]
These are the tales these are the tales that I tell so well[00:03:36]
Now I'm in Atlanta I still love the O[00:03:42]
I gave you my b**ch but you can't have my flow[00:03:45]
I guest appeared on 47 albums[00:03:49]
F**k McDonald's and f**k Calvin[00:03:51]
I get money with Crick sermon when I'm in New York[00:03:54]
I get respect they call me too short[00:03:57]
I live swell in A T L cause I'm a player[00:04:00]
We f**king Bella ho's at X house in decatur where it's greater[00:04:03]
You know how we ride[00:04:07]
I got love for all niggards from the east side[00:04:08]
It was me ant banks and shorty be[00:04:11]
All we need to do is find my niggle peewee[00:04:14]
We used to be on murder street making funky songs[00:04:17]
If you see him tell him short said its back on[00:04:20]
Lets get this money Midwest down south[00:04:23]
East coast west coast ride out b**ch[00:04:26]
Too short talking over hook[00:04:31]
That's my gift to rap you can have that word[00:04:33]
Say b**ch all you want all you regular fake ass niggards[00:04:36]
You finally get to have too short's b**ch trick[00:04:39]
