Verse 1:
A E
Livin on fat pockets on flat with the gat
A E
Rolling around nine deuce cadillac
A E
Still got my homies to watch my back
A E
And they'll smoke your ass if you wanna come and chat
A E
That's why some pigs and the kids come sweating they follow
A E
A hollow point shell's hard to swallow (heyy)
A E
Why wallow when you come to roll on I put the clip in the four five
A E
Bring your ass on, left kicking dust as you hear the gat bust
A
My cribs surrounded, I'm about to get rushed, I brushed with death
A
How many shells stuffed in my closet where my big chrome things kept
Hook:
A E
When the shit goes down you better be ready (when the shit goes down)
A E
When the shit goes down you better be ready (when the shit goes down)
A E
When the shit goes down you better be ready (when the shit goes down)
A E
When the shit goes down you better be ready (you better be ready)
Verse 2:
N.C.
I told the boys get the sawed off Glock and the rest of the gats
N.C.
As I strapped on the bullet-proof vest
N.C.
BOOM, I think I got one to the chest
N.C.
Hot damn I didn't want to kill a man shit
A E
I still stand tall with the hill clan ya'll better stand back
A E
Niggas bout ta fall, I'm coming out blasting like Yosemite Sam
A E
Got the cheese an the bread for the ham
Hook:
A E
When the shit goes down you better be ready (when the shit goes down)
A E
When the shit goes down you better be ready (when the shit goes down)
A E
When the shit goes down you better be ready (when the shit goes down)
A E
When the shit goes down you better be ready (you better be ready)
