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 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. One more day, one more One more day One more day, one more One more day 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, thank you for one more day One more day, one more One more day One more day, one more One more day One more day, one more One more day One more day, one more One more day
