Low Income Lyrics by Wyclef Jean

Low Income Lyrics

    Intro:
    Let um feel the beat first
    I'm bout to come through your stereo
    Should my rhyme start with the hook
    Start with the hook


    To my people who don't wanna go to work
    Thank God it's Friday
    Cover me she bout to put up her skirt
    Thank God it's Friday
    Do Your mom now you act so berserk
    Thank God it's Friday
    What's the track, what's the track girl?
    She don't wanna, she don't wanna work on Monday
    (I wanna thank my hood)

    Verse 1:
    For makin me a star before I had fast cars
    And couldn't tell the difference between Whoppers and caviar
    Before the fame
    Way before things changed
    All I wanted to do was freestyle and get a name
    I used to work at the fast food restaurant
    For minimum wage
    Dreamin I'm on stage
    At 17 I left the house
    Cause my father was a minister
    And I didn't want the Marvin route
    What's goin on?
    Today to sell a song you need a video with soft porn
    MC's in the industry
    You wanna tip?
    Don't let them pimp you like Goldy
    And tell Sony they better have my money
    Cause I play wit the Comodores and be like Lionel Richie
    Low Income, I stay so hungry that if 50 Cent came to rob me
    He'd be part of my charity
    (I wanna thank my hood)


    To my people cuttin here in the shops
    Thank God it's Friday
    To the thugs sweatin up in the chop shops
    Yo, it's Friday
    To my people that don't got no job
    Everyday it's Friday
    What's the track, what's the track yo?
    She don't wanna, she don't wanna work on Monday
    All the Ladies sing

    Ladies:
    I don't feel
    Like cookin you no breakfast
    This mornin
    (Wyclef: All my hoodlums say)

    Guys:
    You don't have
    To cook me breakfast
    Cause your girlfriend will
    After you leave
    (I wanna thank my hood)

    Verse 2:

    For the love of money
    I know kids who'll slit your throat
    Friday the 13th
    Jason wit a trench coat
    But you can't scare Suzie
    Cause her man got so many uzi's you'd think he was Cadivi
    Meanwhile, she's getting her nails done
    Crystal clear so they could shine like wit diamonds
    It's such a shame what happened last week
    Man they found her under the sheets with a letter from the Son of Sam
    It said to tell New York I ain't sleepin
    You want to be clubbin then you better pack your heat in
    And to my man G Swar Rest in Piece
    I still poor liquor
    1 draw on the cocoa leaf
    Inhale, exhale smoke grasses
    Polices in the area, but ain't no need to panic
    You wit Wyclef you getting in
    If not, then we gonna make CNN
    (I wanna thank my hood)

    To my people who don't wanna go to work
    Thank God it's Friday
    Cover me she bout to put up her skirt
    Thank God it's Friday
    Do your mom know you act so berserk?
    Thank God it's Friday
    What's the track, what's the track girl?
    She don't wanna she don't wanna work on Monday
    Yo, to my people cuttin here in the shops
    Thank God it's Friday
    To the thugs sweatin up in the chop shops
    Yo, it's Friday
    To my people who don't got no job
    Everyday it's Firday
    What's the track, what's the track yo?
    She don't wanna she don't wanna work on Monday
    All the Ladies sing

    Ladies:
    I don't feel
    Like cookin you no breakfast
    This mornin
    (Wyclef: All my hoodlums say)

    Guys:
    You don't have
    To cook me breakfast
    Cause your girlfriend will
    After you leave
