| Aiyo I’m going back to Cali
|
| To all the ladies in the valley
|
| And the weather more beautiful than Halle
|
| And I done been all through the hood
|
| My boy Dougie D, man he took me on a tour through the hood
|
| Slauson swap meet, Crenshaw, stop, eat
|
| Then go to Melrose, cop a pair of shelltoes
|
| Then I’m jumpin' on the 5-North
|
| Then I gas up, then I drive off
|
| To the Bay, oh how I love it in the Bay
|
| Same way I love it in LA
|
| I get a lot of love up on Hate Street
|
| Folks look up to me like I’m 8 feet tall
|
| Aiyo the West Coast got it all
|
| And every time I go, man I have a ball
|
| Fun times, sunshine, that’s right up my alley
|
| That’s why I’m going back to Cali
|
| I’ll be back, for now I’m gone
|
| You know what they say, no place like home
|
| I’m keeping my girls in my phone
|
| Worldwide I be all in my zone
|
| C’est la vie, c’est la vie
|
| Adios, adios
|
| Au revoir, au revior
|
| Cheerio
|
| Home sweet home
|
| Hey yo, I’m going back to Paris, France
|
| And I must say, that you really should go if you have a chance
|
| The culture, the music, the art
|
| The food, the people, they real to the heart
|
| This is genuine love, this is not a act
|
| And I couldn’ta put it down on a hotter track
|
| I hear a lot of cats talk a lotta smack
|
| But I lost six G’s, and I got it back
|
| How real is that? |
| Thinking the utmost
|
| Respect from me against the world full of cut-throats
|
| How could I lose a grip like that?
|
| In a crowded sports bar and get it right back (I don’t know)
|
| It’s like no place I ever went
|
| And this’ll be the biggest shout that I ever sent
|
| To any city that I ever flew through
|
| Merci beaucoup, I salute you
|
| I’m going back to the Netherlands
|
| Switzerland, Finland, Deutschland, and the motherland
|
| I’m going back to Jo-Burg, back to Cape Town
|
| Back to Sydney, oh what a great town
|
| Let me break down where I’m going back to
|
| If I been through, I want to come back through
|
| And like a tattoo, I would stay permanent
|
| But my love for the road don’t determine it |
