Gangsta

My mama always told me: If you're in trouble, always run
My papa always said to me: I never ever gonna carry the gun

But heyhey, I've seem them wear those shoes, and them hats
With them clothes and them guns,

I wanna be cool, I wanna be bad

Ooh, I wanna be a gangsta. Ooh, an original G
Ooh, I wanna be a gangsta. Ooh, an original G, so come on
Please give me your money, or else I shoot you with my gun

My country always told me: Get an edu- education
My older brother said the same, but neither of us got the patience
(So listen up!)
If you want an extraordinary life, it calls for extraordinary dreams

Ooh, I wanna be a gangsta. Ooh, an original G
Ooh, I wanna be a gangsta. Ooh, an original G, so come on
Please give me your money, or else I shoot you with my gun
Please give me your money, or else I shoot you with my gun

So I'm collecting bottles because I am so poor
They say I should get a job, but then I have to work, so...
But then I have to work, so...

Ooh, I wanna be a gangsta. Ooh, an original G
Ooh, I wanna be a gangsta. Ooh, an original G, so come on
Please give me your money, or else I shoot you with my gun
Please give me your money!
