Nate Dogg - One More Day Lyrics
[Intro:] We would like for you to help us welcome a very distinguished speaker He hails from the DPG Would you please stand and welcome the one, the only OG Nate Dogg [Verse 1:] Now I was about eight when I caught my first case My mother she turned her back and bowed her head in disgrace Now I didn't do a thing, I was just standing by Here's a message to the youngsters today: standing by you can die Usually I'm in the house but today I snuck home And when I walk down the Long Beach streets, what a lesson they taught While walkin to the cornerstore a big mistake was made My big homey I was walkin with decided he needed to get paid So he loaded up his .32 and walked right in the store He said "Dear God, forgive me please but I can't be broke no more" Now remember I was just eight, I thought this was a joke What I'm sayin I ain't playin, it was funny til that nigga got smoked Can you guess who that could've been quite easily? but it wasn't so I'm lucky to be standing right here to see [Chorus:] One more day, one more One more day One more day, one more One more day [Verse 2:] One more day, I'm hangin around so I can see little Nate have a pocket full of money just like his daddy Everyday I'm sellin big dope, it's all that I know I ain't workin and I got a baby so don't axe me what for One more day, gather round everybody and listen to me I gotta another story about the penitentiary One more day, see while I was servin cavi I forgot to think Say for instance they catch me, little Nate'll never see Now remember I'm sellin big dope but I'm packin my thangs and every corner police watchin, I ain't crazy so I'm leavin the game (I'm leavin the game) But I guess I waited too late cos they just caught me Now I'm locked up, every mornin I am prayin for my son's safety One more day, I'd like to thank you for watchin over my D-O-double G's and would you keep an extra eye on Nate Dogg especially I guess I'll just continue liftin from day to day and if I live to see tomorrow, thankyou for one more day [Chorus to fade]
