Artist/Band: Too Short
Lyrics for Song: No Love From Oakland
Lyrics for Album: Shorty The Pimp [1992]



Ain't no love in Oakland, bitch

Niggas always talkin bout 'I love you'

But ain't no love, bitch



[ VERSE 1 ]

Now it's a shame, I can't be saved by John the Pope

I gotta be a pimp or sellin dope

Cause in this town, it's goin on

And brothers doin that can't live too long

So what's my option, do it or not

Break a hoe, sell a ki, just don't get caught

Cause if I do, I'm goin to jail

On a one-way ticket to a prison cell

You gotta talk for yours, or get nothin at all

This ain't the NBA, I ain't havin a ball

Every day is a trip, but I ain't trippin

Watch my back and don't start slippin

Money won't talk, but it looks right back

Everytime I dip into my stack

I'm buyin cars, jewelries, and mobile phones

Things I couldn't get with a high school diploma

It's alright, cause I just help myself

You should know, cause I can't do nothin else

And you better watch out for the day

When you lock me up and throw that key away

Cause I'll be back on parole

Ain't changed nothing, cause I'm ready to roll

I go to school now, but just to fr
