Every time I do it I do it for my hood (*repeat 2X*)
And every time I do it I do it for yo hood
And every time I do it I do it for they hood
It's understood I do it for the hood

[Verse 1]
The streets love jeezy and I love 'em back,
and If I still had the work I'd front you a sack
It's all gravy still reaching wit my words
And make 'em feel good like the first and the third
Take you back when I was sixteen wit a bankroll
Posted on the corner like a light pole
They used to call us track stars
Before they even stopped we ran to dem cars
And everybody on the block got the same agenda
Hustle from January til the end of December
Wasn't smokin purple then it was more like bobby brown
On that hen dog straight got a nigga drinking brown (7/11 nigga) you know 10 to 4 shake 'em up talk shit hit my drink and let 'em go
Even when I'm on the road a gangsta stay in touch
Why the fuck you think they love me so much (ha ha!)

[Chorus]

I'm talking summertime cookouts and wintertime fights
It ain't nothing we hear shots all night
Ford Taurus pull up everybody run
White boys jump out pointing wit they guns (5-0, 5-0)
Ford Taurus leave everybody came back
Hope dem boyz didn't find my sack
Real recognize real I suppose
I guess that's why the gangstas be at all my shows
Got the deal nothing changed but my clothes
Still catch me in the jects fuckin wit dem hoes (projects!)
Like coo-coo cal
Lord I wish mad Lou could see me now
Wish gold mouth was home mailman was free
A lot of niggaz crossing over naw dog not me
close I ever been to commercials when I watch TV
And everybody know I rep these streets faithfully

[Chorus]

Ford Taurus pull up everybody run
White boys jump out pointing wit they guns
Ford Taurus leave everybody came back
Hope dem boyz didn't find my sack

[Chorus]
