You see it started way back in NYC

        Fmaj7                        Bb5 F/A
When I stole my first rhyme from the M.I.C. 

     G                  C6sus2
At a west end avenue at sixty-three 

         Fmaj7                     Bb5   F/A   G
It’s the beginning of a leap year, February, '96 

                     C6sus2
With a guitar picked up in the mix 

     Fmaj7                      Bb5           F/A
I committed to the licks like a nickel bag of tricks

Well look at me now

Look at me now

Look at me now, now, now, now

                 G
Well then you're never ever gonna guess 

           C6sus2
Where I've been been been 

      Fmaj7
And I have no regrets 

       Bb5          F/A
That I bet my whole checking account 

G                     C6sus2                Fmaj7
Because it all amounts to nothing up in the end

             Bb5   F/A             G
Well you can only count it      on the road again

                     C6sus2
We'll soon be on the radio dial 

           Fmaj7                         Bb5           F/A
And I been payin' close attention to the Willie Nelson style 

      G                          C6sus2
Like a a band of gypsies on the highway while

             Fmaj7                  Bb5        F/A       G
‘Cause I'm a one man pushin' on the California skyline drive 

               C6sus2
Up the coast I brag and I boast

    Fmaj7                        Bb5        F/A
I'm pickin up my pace and makin' time like space ghost

G                      C6sus2                   Fmaj7
Raising a toast to the highway patrol with the most 

                 Bb5     F/A
Put my cruise control on coast 

            G                             C6sus2
'Cause I'm tourin' around the nation on extended vacation see 

      Fmaj7               Bb5         F/A
I got Elsa the dog who exceeds my limitation

I say, "I like your style, crazy pound pup!

Well come on, girl, hop in the truck!”

       G
With a curbside prophet

With my hand in my pocket 

         Fmaj7                      Bb5 F/A
And I'm waiting for my rocket to come 

           G
I'm just a curbside prophet

With my hand in my pocket 

         Fmaj7                    Bb5 F/A
And I'm waiting for my rocket y’all

           G                    C6sus2
See I'm a down home brother, redneck undercover 

         Fmaj7
With my guitar here I'm ready to play 

          G
And I’m a sucker for a filly 

      C6sus2
Got a natural ability

Fmaj7
Give the freestyle, look at my flexibility 

G
Dangerous on the mike 

          C6sus2
My ghetto hat's cocked right 

        Fmaj7
All the ladies say, "yo, that kid is crazy" 

           G                        C6sus2
We got the backstage betties taking more than they can get 

     Fmaj7
They say, "what's up with m-are-a-z?”

               G                  C6sus2
Hey, hey, hey, hey. . . Ah hey. . .

To a brighter yellow
