JoJo's✦ chillin'✦
[Verse 2: Killer Mike]
Back in line JoJo✦ spot Ivy✦
Girl from the hood that he knew from NYC
TSA agent✦ so she cleared him on the ID
Before✦ he go to X-ray, he taking✦ off his shades✦
Taking✦ off his jacket,✦ arm out the sleeve
Reached in his pocket,✦ oh shit, got weed
He done made it this far, what's Jo to do?
So he stuffed it in his pocket✦ and he walked✦ right through
(He walked✦ right through?) He walked✦ right through
Then the TSA agent✦ say, "She pointing at you"
The old lady✦ that had seen Jo cut line
Went to a officer and tried to drop dime
But Ivy✦ wasn't having✦ that, stepped to the copper✦
Told him that the old lady's✦ ID wasn't proper✦
Now the old lady✦ getting treated like a terrorist
Cop got his hand where her grey pubic hair it is
After✦ this though she gonna✦ have to see a therapist
JoJo✦ found the situation hilarious
Threw the old lady✦ deuces,✦ heading to the train
Concourse A, headed✦ to his plane
Arrived on time, they called✦ the first class
Upgrade ticket✦ took a little more cash
Jo's relieved, hes almost✦ free
Can't wait to land in the NYC
[Hook]
JoJo's✦ chillin'✦
[Verse 3: Killer Mike]
Seat belt's on, seat back up
Triple shot of Seagram's in JoJo's✦ cup
A little too much, he felt the stewardess✦ up
She said "Stop, sir!", he looks like "What?"
Gave a big tip then he headed✦ to the bathroom✦
When he got there, told her, "Hey, it has room"
Turned✦ the bathroom✦ into✦ a smashroom✦
She was hitting✦ lines✦ he was hitting✦ from behind
Look up in the mirror✦ saw Ghost another time
"Peace God, pardon God, I ain't see ya Wis'
Lean toward the mirror✦ cause I gotta✦ talk biz"
Ghostface told him, "Only✦ twenty✦ to LaGuardia✦
When you get there, a car take you to Astoria✦
You don't want the alphabet boys on call
So tell the stewardess✦ to make a wheelchair✦ call"
Wheelchair✦ came, deboard plane
JoJo,✦ couple old folks, and they canes✦
Exiting the door he seen a dog walking slow
Couldn't dump the weed, nowhere to go
Turns out the dog sniffed out that blow
Good thing the stewardess✦ a cokehead ho
Cause they bumrushed the bitch
And threw her ass to the flo'
Jo told the wheelchair✦ boy, "Let's go!"
And Jo got away,✦ that's how the story✦ go
[Hook]
JoJo's✦ chillin'✦
