Memphis City Blues - 8Ball & MJG[00:00:00]

Written by：Premro Smith/M Goodwin/Andy Thelusma[00:00:04]

Said I got the blues[00:00:08]

Said I got the blues[00:00:15]

Memphis city blues[00:00:22]

Light up the green watch me light up the room[00:00:24]

Watch me light up the mic fat boy be the truth[00:00:26]

Ni**a live and learn learn the streets or get burned[00:00:29]

Niggas take what you earn they be slick as a perm[00:00:32]

Man I try to be slicker try to be cunning and quicker[00:00:35]

Try to be more than just another broke a** ni**a[00:00:38]

In this game of life lose your life in the game[00:00:41]

Take a life full of pain make you remember my name[00:00:44]

From the home of the blues thought I paid my dues[00:00:47]

It's hard to fill my shoes imitators abuse[00:00:50]

I just love the music like my heart and my brain[00:00:53]

Couldn't live without it that's impossible man[00:00:56]

I'm unstoppable man from the bottom I came[00:00:59]

Niggas scratching for bread stumbled up on the fame[00:01:02]

Humble niggas with game shut yo' mouth up and listen[00:01:05]

Recognize it's a blessing thankful just to be living[00:01:08]

I got the Memphis City Blues[00:01:11]

I could feel it now[00:01:14]

The neighborhood pimps introduced us to pimping[00:01:15]

And everybody we know used to play in them streets[00:01:18]

Oh man oh man oh man[00:01:21]

I got the Memphis City Blues[00:01:23]

I could feel it now[00:01:26]

The neighborhood pimps introduced us to pimping[00:01:27]

And everybody we know used to play in them streets[00:01:30]

Oh man oh man oh man[00:01:33]

I had the Memphis City Jones running through my bones[00:01:35]

Way way back with A+ beepers and gray phones[00:01:39]

Even further back when I was just playing around the yard[00:01:41]

Riding bikes and sh*t falling and getting my legs scarred[00:01:45]

In the music city Memphis Tenn they turned me into this[00:01:48]

My dad and a couple of my friends they played instruments[00:01:51]

And when we used to roll to school at 16[00:01:54]

We bumped sh*t like Bobby Womack and Al Green[00:01:57]

Hell I knew most of the old school sh*t from front to end[00:01:59]

I would start to memorize four fives at age 10[00:02:02]

I come from a city where R&B run deep[00:02:05]

And the blues was the music that paved the whole street[00:02:08]

It was only natural that we would take the torch and run wit it[00:02:11]

Be serious but still have a little fun wit it[00:02:15]

MJG from a town that runs real deep[00:02:18]

Ask B B King and Isaac Hayes on Bill Street[00:02:21]

I got the Memphis City Blues[00:02:23]

I could feel it now[00:02:25]

The neighborhood pimps introduced us to pimping[00:02:27]

And everybody we know used to play in them streets[00:02:30]

Oh man oh man oh man[00:02:33]

I got the Memphis City Blues[00:02:35]

I could feel it now[00:02:38]

The neighborhood pimps introduced us to pimping[00:02:39]

And everybody we know used to play in them streets[00:02:42]

Oh man oh man oh man[00:02:45]

On that pimping man me and G was born and raised[00:02:48]

Commodores O Jays Frankie Beverly and Maze[00:02:50]

Windows rolled down no AC cause the gas low[00:02:54]

Bread at a minimum but still we found a place to go[00:02:57]

North to the South at my ni**a house chiefing out[00:03:00]

Skipping school learning what the Memphis City Blues 'bout[00:03:03]

Me and G and a whole bunch of others[00:03:06]

Had a rocky road to travel just to make the world love us[00:03:09]

'Cause it's the Memphis City really to call it itty bitty[00:03:12]

Would be an understatement[00:03:14]

We got big a** cash and titties[00:03:16]

Big pimping working and hurt the pockets of big tippers[00:03:18]

Side dippers and big jails to hide niggas[00:03:21]

But we stayed out hard times we prayed bout 'em[00:03:23]

Ni**a step up talking that sh*t and I laid out 'em[00:03:27]

MJG rappin' the Memphis Tennie you and I could feel it[00:03:30]

Pass me some of the henny[00:03:34]

I got the Memphis City Blues[00:03:35]

I could feel it now[00:03:38]

The neighborhood pimps introduced us to pimping[00:03:39]

And everybody we know used to play in them streets[00:03:42]

Oh man oh man oh man[00:03:45]

I got the Memphis City Blues[00:03:47]

I could feel it now[00:03:50]

The neighborhood pimps introduced us to pimping[00:03:51]

And everybody we know used to play in them streets[00:03:54]

Oh man oh man oh man[00:03:57]

Said I got the blues[00:04:03]

Said I got the blues[00:04:05]

Said I got the blues[00:04:12]

Gotta Jones in my bones[00:04:15]

And it won't leave me alone[00:04:16]

I got the blues[00:04:20]
