[Chorus]
It's all good, it's alright✦
Fuck all day, fuck all night
Call my bitches,✦ 'cause wherever✦ I go, y'all my bitches✦
East to the West coast, all my bitches✦
It's all good, it's alright✦
Fuck all day, fuck all night
Call my bitches,✦ 'cause wherever✦ I go, y'all my bitches✦
East to the West coast, all my bitches✦
[Verse 2]
Flocks of bitches✦ by the dozens, from sisters to cousins
Got 'em doin' shit they said they wasn't ever✦ gonna✦ do
Like knowin'✦ I'd fuck the bitch that she was close to (Uh-huh)✦
Still gave up the ass and dough, she was supposed to (What?)
Pictures of bitches✦ and flicks of chicks
Videos with the baddest hoes, suckin'✦ dick
It's the dog in me, that makes✦ me do wrong
And honeys✦ can't help but get strung (Why?)
'Cause the game is too strong (Okay)✦
I like 'em greedy,✦ black like Edi
Eyes beady,✦ willin'✦ to give to the needy✦
I done ran through 'em all, from around the way bitches✦ (Uh-huh)✦
To them outta✦ state hoes, and even✦ hittin'✦ gay bitches✦ (Uh)
All I tell 'em is, "Let me get that," then it's on
Knock her motherfuckin' boots, and then I'm gone
I got the white bitches✦ sayin', "It's a black thing"
'Cause I leave that ho with no dough and plenty✦ of back pain
[Chorus]
It's all good, it's alright✦
Fuck all day, fuck all night
Call my bitches,✦ 'cause wherever✦ I go, y'all my bitches✦
East to the West coast, all my bitches✦
It's all good, it's alright✦
Fuck all day, fuck all night
Call my bitches,✦ 'cause wherever✦ I go, y'all my bitches✦
East to the West coast, all my bitches✦
[Verse 3]
Bitches✦ who get props, 'cause they know who can get got
And they can get shot, by the way a niggas✦ lip drop
Walk up in the spot, knowin'✦ what she want strictly✦
When hon' wants the dickly,✦ hon' comes✦ and gets me
Hits me, pays me, doesn't get crazy✦
Knows to be Swayze, 'cause that's daddy's✦ baby✦
I keep them hoes in check, like the government
Hittin'✦ 'em off with nothin'✦ but the dick, and they lovin'✦ it
Huggin'✦ it, like it's they best friend, 'cause it is
Word to Miz, fuckin'✦ with tricks is just biz'
I deal with strictly✦ dimes✦
Got 'em committin' they first crimes✦
Now she suckin'✦ dick, for the first time
And ain't no secret,✦ 'bout how I freak it, when they sleeped✦ it
Never✦ know how I peeped it, then creeped✦ it
That's how I know this must be that shit
I tell them bitches,✦ "I'll be back," and they believe that shit
[Chorus]
It's all good, it's alright✦
Fuck all day, fuck all night
Call my bitches,✦ 'cause wherever✦ I go, y'all my bitches✦
East to the West coast, all my bitches✦
It's all good, it's alright✦
Fuck all day, fuck all night
Call my bitches,✦ 'cause wherever✦ I go, y'all my bitches✦
East to the West coast, all my bitches✦
It's all good, it's alright✦
Fuck all day, and all night
Call my bitches,✦ 'cause wherever✦ I go, y'all my bitches✦
East to the West coast, all my bitches✦
It's all good, it's alright✦
Fuck all day, and all night
Call my bitches,✦ 'cause wherever✦ I go, y'all my bitches✦
East to the West coast, all my bitches✦
[Outro]
I love my niggas,✦ but where's✦ my bitches?✦
I love my niggas,✦ but where's✦ my bitches?✦
I love my niggas,✦ but where's✦ my bitches?✦
I love my niggas,✦ but where's✦ my bitches?✦
