Nwa - I Ain't Tha 1 lyrics

(feat. Ice Cube)

[Intro: girl, Ice Cube]

(Ice Cube, do you think you could give me some money to get my hair done?)

How short's your hair right now?

(Well you know I get it done every week, and I need my nails done too)

Look, I'ma tell you like this

[Verse One:]

I ain't the one, the one to get played like a pooh butt

See I'm from the street, so I know what's up

On these silly games that's played by the women

I'm only happy when I'm goin up in em

But you know, I'm a menace to society

But girls in biker shorts are so fly to me

So I step to em, with aggression

Listen to the kid, and learn a lesson today

See they think we narrow minded

Cause they got a cute face, and big-behinded

So I walk over and say "How ya doin?"

See I'm only down for screwin, but you know

ya gotta play it off cool

Cause if they catch you slippin, you'll get schooled

And they'll get you for your money, son

Next thing you know you're gettin their hair and they nails done

Fool, and they'll let you show em off

But when it comes to sex, they got a bad cough

Or a headache, it's all give and no take

Run out of money, and watch your heart break

They'll drop you like a bad habit

cause a brother with money yo, they gotta have it

Messin with me though, they gets none

You can't juice Ice Cube girl, cause I ain't the one

[Interlude One:]

(Girrrrrl, you got to get these brothers for all the money

you can honey. Cause if they ain't got no money, they can't

do nothin for me but get out of my face.)

(I know what you mean girl, it ain't nothin right jumpin off

unless he got dollars)

[Verse Two:]

Sometimes I used to wonder

How the hell an ugly dude get a fine girl's number

He's gettin juiced for his ducats

I tell a girl in a minute yo, I drive a bucket

And won't think nuttin of it

She can ride or walk, either leave it or love it

I show her that I'm not the O, the N-E, say

I'm a ruthless N-I double-G A

Cause I'm gamin on a female that's gamin on me

You know I spell girl with a B

A brother like me is only out for one thing

I think with my ding-a-ling, but I won't bring no

flowers to your doorstep, when we goin out

Cause you'll take it for granted, no doubt

And after the date, I'ma want to do the wild thing

You want lobster huh? I'm thinking Burger King

And when I take you, you get frustrated

You can't juice Ice Cube and you hate it

But you see, I don't go nuts

Over girls like you with the BIG ol butts

It start comin out the pocket, to knock it

But when the damage is done...

You can only lay me girl, you can't play me girl

For the simple fact that, I ain't the one

[Interlude Two:]

(I don't care how they look if they got money,

we can hook up but they ain't gettin none.)

(Yeah I just make em think they gonna get some,

play up they mind a lil bit, and get that money.)

(Oh Ice Cube, can I have some money pleeeease?)

[Verse Three:]

Give you money why bother

Cause you know I'm lookin nothin like your father

Girl, I can't be played or ganked

Ganked means getting took for your bank

Or your gold or your money or something

Nine times outta ten, she's giving up nothing

They get mad when I put it in perspective

But let's see if my knowledge is effective

To the brothas man they robbing you blind

Cause they fine with a big behind, but pay it no mind

Keep your money to yourself homie

and if you got enough game

You'll get her name and her number

Without going under

You can't leave em and love and stay above em

I used to get no play now she stay behind me

Cause I said I had a Benz 190

But I lied and played the one

Just to get some now she feels dumb

To my homies it's funny

But that's what you get trying to play me for my money

Now don't you feel used

But I don't give hoot, huh, because I knock boots

You shouldn't be, so damn material

And try to milk Ice Cube like cereal

Now how many times do I have to say it

Cause if I have to go get a gun

You girls will learn I don't burn

You think I'm a sucka, but I ain't the one

[Outro:]

(But you said you love me!)

I don't see no rings on this finger

(Why you doin me like this? I love you!)

Yeah you love my money, I got what I wanted - beat it
