County Line
Coolio

Verse One:

Seven in the morning standing in the line

Three fools in front of me drinking on some wine

Two in the back of me sucking on a joint

And one in back of them beggin for a newport

There's 4 5 suckers way way in the back

Stooped down low with the crowd smokin' crack

They looking at me funny coz I got a record out

And a nigga with a record out is supposed to have some clout

A forth of the people in the line be hookers

But the other forth betta ask help themself

A forth of the people haven't been fed and all of the rest are fucked up in the

Head

A bald headed stank bitch is about to make me laugh

And a nigga who need a bath is asking for my autograph

Ain't nothing changed but the time

I got to get mine, so I'm standing in the county line


Chorus:

This ain't funny so don't you dare laugh

Coz it's all about money, ain't a damn thing funny

This ain't funny so don't you dare laugh

You got to have the conned, in this land of milk and honey


Verse Two:

I walked through the front door to fill out my ap

Here comes another sap asking if I rap

I don't say a word coz he know that I do

I'm down with the maad ass you know Hoo!

I take a number and a seat

I'm sweating from the heat

Somebody got their shoes off

I smell their feet

My number is 80, it's still on 20

I look up at the clock and now is 10: 30

Free butter and cheese oh please, oh please

Can I get my food stamps so I can leave

I got money and a car but they don't even know it

Now they asking me a gang of questions coz I told them I was homeless

I'm living in a car out back in the alley

But I use to shack up with a hooker named Sally

Line after line

What is the time

My life is in a bomb so I'm standing in the county line


Chorus


Verse Three:

I'm sittin' at a desk talking to a social worker

She thinks I'm a fool but I know that I can work her

-Punk ass ho' sittin' behind the window all toe up ass tramp

Rollin' that week sheets of mine

You have a penetentry record

-I said I know that biatch!

She wants to know what kind a work do I do

I said I haven't worked since 1992

I can't find a job though I looked and I looked

Took one hit of the crack and mistook

She sittin there wonderin' when I get to the point like I'm smokin me a joint

Job search work the projects whackness

And in a few weeks I'd get my check

Now I got to wait for them to call me trough the window

So I can get some cash to pay for the hotel and the bathshow

It's 5: 13 by the clock on the wall

Bum for some change so I can make a phone call

Shit is getting late and the time is 29

That why so many niggas standing in the county line

Chorus 2X to fade
