California✦ love
California✦ knows how to party✦
California✦ knows how to party✦
In the city✦ of L.A
In the city✦ of good ol' Watts
In the city,✦ the city✦ of Compton✦
We keep it rockin',✦ we keep it rockin'✦
Now let me welcome everybody to the Wild Wild West
A state that's untouchable like Eliot✦ Ness
The track hits your eardrum like a slug to your chest
Pack a vest for your Jimmy✦ in the city✦ of sex
We in that sunshine state where the bomb-ass hemp be
The state where you never✦ find a dance floor empty✦
And pimps be on a mission✦ for them greens
Lean mean money-making-machines servin'✦ fiends
I been in the game for 10 years makin'✦ rap tunes✦
Ever✦ since honeys✦ was wearin'✦ Sassoon
Now it's '95 and they clock me and watch me
Diamonds shinin',✦ lookin'✦ like I robbed Liberace
It's all good, from Diego✦ to the Bay
Your city✦ is the bomb if your city✦ makin'✦ pay
Throw up a finger✦ if you feel the same way
Dre puttin'✦ it down for Californ-i-a✦
California✦ knows how to party✦
California✦ knows how to party✦ (Yes, they do)
In the city✦ of L.A
In the city✦ of good ol' Watts
In the city,✦ the city✦ of Compton✦
We keep it rockin',✦ we keep it rockin'✦
Shake, shake it, baby✦
Shake, shake it, mama✦
Shake it, Cali✦
Shake it, shake it, baby✦
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it
Out on bail, fresh out of jail, California✦ dreamin'✦
Soon as I step on the scene, I'm hearin'✦ hoochies screamin'✦
Fiendin' for money✦ and alcohol, the life of a Westside✦ player
Where cowards die and the strong ball
Only✦ in Cali✦ where we riot, not rally,✦ to live and die
In L.A. we wearin'✦ Chucks, not Ballys✦ (yeah, that's right)
Dressed in Locs and Khaki✦ suits, and ride is what we do
Flossin' but have caution:✦ we collide✦ with other✦ crews
Famous because we throw grams
Worldwide,✦ let them recognize from Long Beach to Rosecrans
Bumpin'✦ and grindin' like a slow jam
It's Westside,✦ so you know the Row won't bow down to no man
Say what you say, but give me that bomb beat from Dre
Let me serenade the streets of L.A
From Oakland✦ to Sac-town, the Bay Area✦ and back down
Cali✦ is where they put their mack down; give me love!
California✦ knows how to party✦
California✦ knows how to party✦ (Yes, they do)
In the city✦ of L.A
In the city✦ of good ol' Watts
In the city,✦ the city✦ of Compton✦
We keep it rockin',✦ we keep it rockin'✦
South Central
Uh, that's right
Now make it shake
Shake, shake it, baby✦
Shake, shake it, mama✦
Shake it, Cali✦
Shake it, shake it, baby✦
Shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it
Shake it, Cali✦
Uh, uh, West Coast
Uh, yeah, uh, uh, Long Beach in the house
Uh, yeah, Oaktown
Oakland✦ definitely in the house
Frisco,✦ Frisco✦
And you know L.A. up in here
Pasadena, where you at?
Yeah, Inglewood✦
Inglewood✦ always✦ up to no good
Even Hollywood✦ tryin' to get a piece, baby✦
Sacramento,✦ Sacramento✦ where you at?
Throw it up, y'all! Throw it up, throw it up!
I can't see ya
Let's show these fools how we do it over✦ on this Westside✦
'Cause you and I know it's the best side
Yeah, that's right
West Coast, West Coast
