Shelburne

uh

uh-huh uh huh uh

Where you from, what?

Where you from?

Work the party now

J-Bizzy in the place yo

uh, yeah



You know you're Shelburne when you're standing on the block

You gotta walk around the corner every time you see a cop



You know you're Shelburne when you's thinkin you's a star

But the music in your system is costin more than your car



You know you're Shelburne when you're thinkin that you're cool

But 24 years old you'll still be stuck in high school



You know you're Shelburne when you listen to this song

You're with the same girl for years but you guys still don't get along



You know you're Shelburne when you're drinking ?????

??????????????????????????????????????



You know you're Shelburne with your shirt ?????

And you see me on the street you'd be like "How's it goin pard?"



You know youre Shelburne when you ?????? withput a plan

And after each and every sentence you have to use the word 'man'



Now you know I understand, man

But if you're still up by the school buyin smokes

Understand that you're Shelburne



[corus]



Shelburne's what you are when you think you's a star

But you still drive around by yourself in your mothers car

Shelburne's what you are when you think that you're nice

But you're the opposite, don't look twice

Yo, S to the L to the B U R N E

Yo, S to the L to the B U R N E



Yo

You know you're Shelburne when you's thinkin that you're ??

Drinkin too much liquor, but you haven't drank enough



You know you're Shelburne when you're tryin to buy some weed

You gotta go through seven peoples just to get what you need



You know you're Shelburne when your mom's gone to mingle

And you're dad's at the Oxbow actin like he's single



You know you're Shelburne when you couldn't make a list

Of all the people that you know who make a living off of fish



You know you're Shelburne when you're out walkin the dog

Wearin a massive sweatsuit from the Sears catalouge



You know you're Shelburne when you're out lookin for work

Walkin around still wearin that Scarlet Letter T-shirt



If you're from Shelburne then it goes unsaid

By the time the tractor's done there'll be room for ???



You know you're Shelburne when you've heard of J-Bizz

I'm big J, I'm tellin y'all, what more can I say?



[chorus]



Shelburne's what you are when you think you's a star

But you still drive around by yourself in your mothers car

Shelburne's what you are when you think that you're nice

In front of A-1 tryin to get a slice

Yo, S to the L to the B U R N E

Yo, S to the L to the B U R N E



Yo



You know you're Shelburne when you always like to stare

At every car that drives by and if you don't know them then ??



If you're from Shelburne then you probably got some ??

In the middle of the woods and you gotsta worry bout the cops



If you're from Shelburne it don't matter if you're slower

But if you're driving past 12 then the cops will probably pull ya over



And if you're from Shelburne then they're probably gonna harrass you

Inseatd you're thinkin of all the stupid questions they're gonna ask you



When you're from Shelburne goin away as a kid

And you say where you're from they're gonna ask you what you did



You know you're Shelburne and you're playin basketball

Thinkin that you're Michael Jordan, only 5 feet tall



You know you're Shelburne when you're spittin out your rhymes

Walkin around, wearin a touque in the middle of summertime



Don't get me wrong cause I do this shit too

Cause I was raised in Shelburne County where there's nothin else to do



Yo, I'm Shelburne



[chorus]



Shelburne's what you are when you think you's a star

But you still drive around by yourself in your mothers car

Shelburne's what you are when you think that you're nice

But you're the opposite, don't look twice

Yo, S to the L to the B U R N E

Yo, S to the L to the B U R N E



uh uh

Yo Shelburne
