Hey, ho
(This is the way we ball)
Ah ha, Houston, Texas
(This is the way we ball)
Ah ha
(This is the way we ball)
(This is the way we ball)

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss
I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty South
(This is the way we ball)
And we riding blades, Jags and Escalades
We third coast born but we always getting paid
(This is the way we ball)

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss
I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty South

I'm Lil' Flip, I'm back on the scene, freestyle king
Brand new piece, same Byzantine
I'm still sipping lean, I'm still watching 'Scream'
I love wearing platinum, but my favorite color's green

I'm hopping out Ferraris, my house is three stories
I'm still independent 'cause Jive couldn't afford me
The meetings were boring, for real I was snoring
The VP was fine, yeah she made me kinda *****

But that's another story, let's get back to the topic
Right now me and Hump negotiating to buy the Rockets
We might buy the Comets name it, I done it
If you see it and want it, buy it, own it

This is for my homies, Pat and DJ Screw
R.I.P. dawg cause I really miss you
Boy I'ma stay true, until the day I fall
East coast and West coast, this is how we ball
(This is the way we ball)

And we like to floss, all my diamonds gloss
I represent the dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty South
(This is the way we ball)
And we riding blades, Jags and Escalades
We third coast born but we always getting paid

I'm thinking designer clothes and fashion shows
I'm thinking all my albums groin platinum and gold
I'm thinking Jaguars and a Bentley Rolls
I'm thinking being rich before I'm 24

I'm feeling wood grain all in my tinted truck
I'm filling all my teeth up with princess cuts
I'm filling jugs up, no mo empty cups
I'm feeling like I'm worth 10 million bucks

And I know I wear a watch, yo it was made from a game
And I know my rims chop like the blades on a plane
And I know yo baby mama still giving me brain
And I know that ain't platinum, that's a silvery chain

And I make nothing but hits when I step in the booth
And I make rainbows from the sun reflect on my tooth
And I make DVD's light up in my coupe
I think I feel I know I make money, how bout you?

I'm swanging, about to rip the kizzerp, sipping on my syzzerp
If you buy first from me then you just bought a dizzert
Swangas on my whizzeel, platinum in my grizzeel
Me and Doby D stay blowing on some kizzeel

I'm higher than a hizzeel, mind on a mizzell
Southside of H-town show me how you fizzeel
Now you see we ball, now you see we rich
I represent the legendary Screwed Up Click

I wreck I-45, I wreck 2 Screw tapes
I'm 3 wheeling, popping trunk, groin down Fuqua
So move out of my way 'cause I'm riding double R
MJ right behind me in a Lexus bubble car
