From the depths of the sea, back to the block
Snoop Doggy Dogg, funky as the, the, The D.O.C
Went solo on that ass, but it's still the same
Long Beach is the spot where I served my 'caine
Follow me, follow me, follow me, follow me, but don't lose your grip
Nine-trizzay's the yizzear for me to fuck up shit
So I ain't holdin nothin' back
And motherfucker I got five on the twenty sack
It's like that and as a matter of fact (Ra-ta-tat-tat)
'Cause I never hesitate to put a nigga on his back
Yeah, so peep out the manuscript
You see that it's a must, we drop gangsta shit
What's my motherfuckin' name?
Snoop Doggy, Dogg (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Snoop Doggy, Dogg (The bomb)
Da-da-da-da-dah
Do-do-do-do, doo-doo-doo-da-dah (Dog)
It's the bow to the wow, creepin' and crawlin'
Yiggy yes y'allin, Snoop Doggy Dogg
In the motherfuckin' house like everyday
Droppin' shit with my nigga Mr. Dr. Dre
Like I said, niggas can't fuck with this
And niggas can't fuck with that
Shit that I drop 'cause ya know it don't stop
Mr. One Eight Seven on a motherfuckin' cop
Tic toc never the Glock just some nuts and a cock
Robbin' motherfuckers then I kill dem bloodclaats
Then I step through the fog and I creep through the smog
'Cause I'm Snoop Doggy (Who?) Doggy (What?) Doggy (Dog)
Snoop Doggy, Dogg
Snoop Doggy, Dogg (The bomb)
Bow wow wow yippie-yo-yippie-yay
Bow wow wow yippie-yo (The bomb)
Bow wow wow yippie-yo-yippie-yay
Bow wow wow yippie-yo-yo-yo-yo
Now just throw your hands in the motherfuckin' air
And wave the motherfuckers like ya just don't care
Yeah, roll up the dank, and pour the drank
And watch your step (Why?) 'cause Doggy's on the gank
My bank roll's on swoll
My shit's on hit, legit, now I'm on parole, stroll
With The Dogg Pound right behind me
And up in yo bitch, is where ya might find me
Layin' that, playin that G Thang
She want the nigga with the biggest nuts, and guess what?
He is I, and I am him, slim with the tilted brim
What's my motherfuckin' name?
Snoop Doggy, Dogg (The bomb)
