Now let me welcome everybody to the wild' wild west A state that's untouchable like Elliot Ness The track hits ya eardrum' like a slug to ya chest Pack a vest for your Jimmy in the city of sex We in that sunshine state with a bomb ass hemp beat the state where ya never find a dance floor empty. And pimps be on a mission for them greens
lean mean money-makin'-machines servin' fiends.
I been in the game for ten years makin' rap tunes
ever since honeys was wearin' sassoon. Now it's '95 and they clock me and watch me diamonds shinin' lookin' like I robbed Liberace. It's all good' from Diego to tha Bay Your city is tha bomb if your city makin' pay

In tha citaaay of good ol' Watts
In the citaaay' the city of Compton. We Keep it Rockin' We Keep it Rockin' （Dre） Yeah' now make it shake! come on! Shake Shake it baby Shake Shake it' Shake it baby Shake Shake it' Shake it Cali（Shake it Cali）

Out on bail fresh outta jail California dreamin'Soon as I stepped on the scene I'm hearin' hoochies screamin'. Fiendin' for money and alcohol the life of a west side playa' where cowards die' it's our ball Only in Cali where we riot now rallies are live and die. In L.A. we wearin' chucks not Ballies. （yea' that's right） Dressed in Locs and khaki suits
and ride is what we do. Flossin' but have caution we can lie with other crews. Famous cause we program worldwide let'em recognize from Longbeach to Rose Grands Bumpin' and Grindin' like a slow jam it's west side so you know the Row won't bow down to no man. Say what you say but give me that bomb beat from Dre let me serenade the streets of L.A. From Oakland to Sacktown
The Bay area in bag down California.....knows how to party
Cali is where they put they mack down
California.....knows how to party
In tha Citaaay of LA
In tha Citaaay of good ol' Watts
In the citaaay' the city of Compton.
We keep it Rockin'
