Ernie G. - Tales From The Westside lyrics

[Hook] Westside (Background) You can run but you can't hide (x2) You can run but you can't hide fool (x2) [Verse 1: Frank V] Another day on the Westside, everything's fine Youngster coming up trying to sell me an alpine Damn, that's the fifth one this month Gave him fifty bucks and threw it in my trunk Rolled out, there was some things I had to do Homies on the Westside were throwing a barbecue Yeah, Chicanos got a peace treaty But you won't see homeboys on TV The media will shed no light, but that's alright Chicanos were k**ing each other every single night Eses dropping left and right Till the vatos from the pen stepped in I guess it was a test to see who had guts I guess it was a test to see who really had nuts I'm sitting here rolling in my ride Oh what the hell, just another Tale From The Westside [Bridge] Westside, that's the spot Westside, don't get caught Westside, after dark Westside, you gotta have heart [Hook] [Verse 2: Frank V] Another day, another ducket I'm sitting here rolling in my bucket Thinking of a way to make some quick dinero Without busting out with my double-barrel Cuz there's some youngsters who look up to me And kicking it in the county ain't my cup of tea So I start to wet my whistle Now I'm looking down the barrel of a pistol They were four deep then four more creeped Pulling over my ride, damn back away side A jail cell is something I hate I'm the creeper so I put my beeper on vibrate They run my plates, cuff me up, and tow my ride Oh what the hell, another Tale From The Westside [Bridge] Westside, that's the spot Westside, don't get caught Westside, after the dark Westside, you gotta have heart [Hook] [Verse 3: Frank V] Living on the Westside ain't an easy task If you don't know homeboy you better ask Cuz what you don't know fool, just might hurt Even homegirls are putting fools in the dirt Levas like that deserve to get stuck Like that fool that tried to jack my brother for his drop truck I can't let it slide Called up the homeboys, jumped in the G-ride Rolled to the spot where he hangs Kicked down the door, click click, bang bang It's a shame that the vato died But maybe I'm insane or I got too much pride Westside, that's the spot Westside, don't get caught Slipping in the park after dark talking noise First to get your a** stomped on by the homeboys Yeah, you can run but you can't hide fool Tales From The Westside [Bridge] Westside, that's the spot Westside, don't get caught Westside, after the dark Westside, you gotta have heart [Hook]
