Hopped up out the bed
Turned my swag on
Took A look in the mirror
Said wassup (yeaaah)
I'm gettin' money (oh) [x2]
[Verse:]
(Keri)
They told me round the hood
(What they say?)
Everytime they see me I look good (yeah)
(Why?)
I get money (yeah)
If you be hatin just be mad at yourself
I bet you think this song is about, don't you (yeah)
But I did it without you (yeah)
Said this is for them chicks who be handlin they business
Got M ups to them hatas cause we to busy winnin
You can't tell us nothin
You can't tell me nothin
If you ain't gettin money
Then you ain't got nothin for me
Cause I be gettin paper like you wouldn't believe
And I be gettin hatas like you wouldn't believe
So wassup (yeah)
Boy stop (yeah)
Swag ain't something you can wear on your neck
You can buy you a chain but you can't buy respect
I'm a walk it
Like I talk it
So you never forget
And if you get your swag on
Let me hear you say
Yeah Yeah Yeah
If you wake up in the mornin
And you turn your swag on
Let me hear you say
Yeah Yeah Yeah
Let Me hear you say
Yeah Yeah Yeah
(Turn my swag on) [repeated til end of chorus]
[Chorus:]
Hopped up out the bed
Turned my swag on
Took A look in the mirror
Said wassup (yeaaah)
I'm gettin' money (oh) [x2]
