Block Lockdown Lyrics by Ludacris

Word of Mouf

2001

[Intro: Ludacris]
\nDisturbing Tha Peace, Def Jam South
\nChris (Yeah), you ready?
\nOh it's my turn? Aight
\n
\n[Verse 1: Ludacris]
\nI got permission to put yo mamma in a headlock (What?)
\nShe tried to took me in a figure-fo' leg lock (Ohh)
\nShe said she like the way I stick and make the bed rock
\nOr how I lick and leave her twisted like a dreadlock, and it's on
\nSo stop the sweatin' like a wristband
\nAnd get some balance like a bike without the kickstand
\nI think I changed the definition of a hit man
\n'Cause I could really give a fuck about that bitch, man, c'mon!
\nWe puttin' holes in your residence
\nAnd lose anybody for the right president
\nWe thugged out street niggas with intelligence
\nSo all that bullshit you yappin' is irrelevant, oh yeah
\nI represent the Dirty Southside
\nI'm a dentist makin' women open they mouth wide
\nCould be in jail still runnin' it on the outside
\nThank not then won't you open up yo mouth riiight, but who cares?
\n
\n[Chorus: I-20, Ludacris]
\nI got my corner on lockdown
\nAbout to hold this whole block down
\nLudacris, tell 'em how the South sound
\nOoh! Graaa! Ooh-ooh-ooh, graaa!
\nOoh! Graaa! Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh
\nI got my corner on lockdown
\nAbout to hold this whole block down
\nLudacris, tell 'em how the South sound
\nOoh! Graaa! Ooh-ooh-ooh, graaa!
\nOoh! Graaa! Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh
\n
\n[Verse 2: Ludacris]
\nComin' to Shady Park is like a peep show
\nIt's some respectable ladies and there some freak hoes
\nI know killers that go to church up in they street clothes
\nYou'll end up missin' more than Shaq when shootin' free throws
\nThey packin' and bout to open up the dope spot
\nMy neighborhood is stoppin' cars like a roadblock
\nThey movin' weight like Atlanta was movin' boat rock
\nAnd catchin' ums like seein' Muslims eatin' pork chops - never happen
\nAnd meanwhile I been thinkin' man
\nNiggas started slangin' tapes like they slangin' 'caine
\n'Cause in the hood its gettin' ugly like orangutan
\nSo if you tryin' to stop the hustle get the dangalang
\nOkay, we tryin' to make our own White House
\nPaint it black and start yellin' our fuckin' pipes out
\nYou try to tackle some players and you'll get psyched out
\nThey can't fuck with us niggas you think they dyked out, so don't play
\n
\n[Chorus: I-20, Ludacris]
\nI got my corner on lockdown
\nAbout to hold this whole block down
\nLudacris, tell 'em how the South sound
\nOoh! Graaa! Ooh-ooh-ooh, graaa!
\nOoh! Graaa! Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh
\nI got my corner on lockdown
\nAbout to hold this whole block down
\nLudacris, tell 'em how the South sound
\nOoh! Graaa! Ooh-ooh-ooh, graaa!
\nOoh! Graaa! Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh
\n
\n[Verse 3: Ludacris]
\nDisturbing Tha Peace, we do that monkey shit
\nHey, what can I say? We got a monkey clique
\nSee Dre'll throw on them shades, and make that funky shit
\nAnd keep y'all women away if they got funky clit, understand
\nWe got that dough and it get rolled up
\nYou pay the price and still we got the block sold up
\nAin't nothin' nice a full house don't make you fold up
\nYou full of heist and try to jet and I'm like, "Hold up, goddamn"
\nI need to say it on a megaphone
\nAnd tell your sister get the fuck up off the telephone
\nThese fools is tickin' me off like fifty metronome
\nI'm takin' all of yo money just call me Pebbletone, alright?
\nI got the pistol and the safe key
\nYou betta tell your bitch to follow you to safety
\nHow dare you wanna be heroes and tryna chase me
\nIt's Ludacris won't leave no evidence to trace me, you know why?
\n
\n[Chorus: I-20, Ludacris]
\nI got my corner on lockdown
\nAbout to hold this whole block down
\nLudacris, tell 'em how the South sound
\nOoh! Graaa! Ooh-ooh-ooh, graaa!
\nOoh! Graaa! Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh
\nI got my corner on lockdown
\nAbout to hold this whole block down
\nLudacris, tell 'em how the South sound
\nOoh! Graaa! Ooh-ooh-ooh, graaa!
\nOoh! Graaa! Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh
\n
\n[Outro: Ludacris]
\nThat monkey shit , oh
\nDo that monkey shit, oh
\nDo that monkey shit, oh
\nDo that monkey shit, oh
\nDo that monkey shit, uh
\nDo that monkey shit, uh
\nDo that monkey shit
\nDo that monkey shit\n\n
