Good Thing We're Rappin - Digital Underground

Alright parents go head tuck the kids in  PG time is over 
This goes out to all the macks in the industry.. 
Huh  alright roll the tape... 
(..yo  rest day ain't for hoes..) 
It's a good thing that we're rappin 
If it wasn't for the rappin we'd be mackin 
It's a good thing that we're rappin 
If it wasn't for the rappin we'd be mackin 
It's a good thing that we're rappin 
There was a time when they called me Smooth Eddie 
Playing the hoes and shook the red card steady 
It was Mike to those that knows 
Matter of fact, Icy Mike cause he was cold on them hoes 
We was east coast niggas headin west 
I was rollin shotgun, coolin with my man fresh Wes 
The royal blue Brogham was a drop top rag 
You could tell we was pimps from the Las Vegas tags 
Cause that's how we flipped it 
Hit a lick, paid cash, said nothin, pimp shit 
All of this was around spring eighty one 
I was in the life and had a good three year run 
Anyway, one friday on the side of the road in L.A. 
My man Wes says hey, "I got a bitch in San Diego" 
"Cool", I said, "I'll see ya in a coupla days 
I'm gonna stay and play some L.A. hoes" 
He said, "alright player yo, I'll see you soon" 
Yeah that's how real players kick it see there ain't no rules 
We roll from city to city, like kids playing hookie 
Later that night I knock a bitch named Cookie 
She says, "I love you and I want to make you rich" 
I says, "oh yeah", I swear I worked the shit out this bitch 
She was fine too, niggas couldn't tell me nothin 
Had brains too, did more stealin than fucking 
A real thoroughbred, played con like a pro 
Man I'm tryin to tell you I had a money makin ho
