County Line (LP版) - Coolio

Seven in the morning standing in the line

Three fools in front of me

Drinking on some wine

Two in the back of me sucking on a joint

And one in back of them beggin' for a Newport

There's four five suckers way way in the back

Stooped down low with the crowd smoking crack

They looking at me funny 'coz I got a record out

And a ni**a with a record out

Supposed to have some clout

A forth of the people in the line need help

But the other forth betta ask help themself

A forth of the people having good faith

And all of the rest all f**ked up in the head

A bald headed stank b**ch is about to make me laugh

And a ni**a who need a bath is asking for my autograph

Ain't nothing changed but the time

I got to get mine

So I'm standing in the county line

This ain't funny so don't you dare laugh

'Coz it's all about money

Ain't a damn thing funny

This ain't funny so don't you dare laugh

You got to have a con

In this land of milk and honey

I walked through the front door to fill out my app

Here comes another sap asking if I rap

I don't say a word 'coz he know that I do

I'm down with the mad a** you know who

I take a numer and a seat

I'm sweating from the heat

Somebody got their shoes off I smell their feet

My number is 80 it's still on 20

I look up at the clock and now is 10:30

Free butter and cheese oh please oh please

Can I get my food stamps so I can leave

I got money and a car

But they don't really know it

Now they asking me a gang of questions

'Coz I told them I was homeless

I'm living in a car drive back in the alley

But I use to shack up with a hooker named Sally

Line after line Ruff is the time

My life is in a bomb

So I'm standing in the county line

This ain't funny so don't you dare laugh

'Coz it's all about money

Ain't a damn thing funny

This ain't funny so don't you dare laugh

You got to have a con

In this land of milk and honey

I'm sitting at a desk talking to a social worker

She thinks I'm a fool

But I know that I can jerk her

Punk a** ho' sitting

Behind the window all toe up a** tramp

Runnin that old weak sh*t talkin about

"You have a penetentry record"

I said "I know that b**ch"
