Lyrics
0:25I wake up wake up in the morning
0:27'Cause them boys come knocking in the morning
0:30Then I have me girl go flush it in the toilet
0:33Them say did someone get murdered on the corner
0:36Them say did someone see me seen someone get shot
0:40Them say they saw me there
0:43My *** they won't break me
0:44Man I'll go crazy before they make me tell
0:49There was a murder by the corner house
0:51Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
0:52Them boys asking questions now
0:54No no no no no
0:55Now everybody seen it but don't nobody know
0:58What happened to the boy down the street a week ago
1:01Ain't nobody talking they keep it on the low
1:05Don't open up your mouth when they knocking at your do'
1:07'Cause *** die out here for snitching
1:10They die for snitching okay
1:13These *** die out here for snitching
1:16They die for snitching okay
1:20Those who break the code we dig them hole
1:23What's worse than a street *** that sells his soul
1:26Via the life we chose we picked our roles
1:29Bad man stands and fall but never fold
1:32Gangster turn informer when the jig's up your tool mix up mix up
1:36Babylon boys get bodies left for pick up
1:39Blood puddle gun muffle guns couple
1:42Muzzle in mouth we bring trouble
1:44Soon police come rush whole family crushed
1:48All because them *** couldn't 'ush
1:50Shot box mouths with no covers
1:52Body 'pon body gets stacked one top the other
1:56Wish them hadn't to suffer
1:57There was a murder by the corner house
1:59Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
2:00Them boys asking questions now
2:02No no no no no
2:03Now everybody seen it but don't nobody know
2:06What happened to the boy down the street a week ago
2:09Ain't nobody talking they keep it on the low
2:12Don't open your mouth when they knocking at your do'
2:15'Cause *** die out here for snitching
2:18They die for snitching okay
2:21These *** die out here for snitching
2:24They die for snitching okay
2:27Nobody seen nothing heard nothing they ain't said a word
2:31Just chalk and yellow tape with blood 'pon them shirts
2:34Ashes to ashes his body back to the earth
2:37That casket dropped six feet then throw upon it dirt
2:40Mum's the word that's hustler's etiquette
2:43Ya rather hang yourself than turn state evidence
2:46Ever since I was young never talk to the folk
2:49Tongue small like a rudder yet steer the 'ole boat
2:52Loose lip the reason that ship no longer float
2:55Telling the Feds everything they wanna know
2:59That fatal blow took his very last breath
3:01The power of the tongue is life and death you feel me
3:05There was a murder by the corner house
3:06Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
3:08Them boys asking questions now
3:09No no no no no
3:11Now everybody seen it but don't nobody know
3:14What happened to the boy down the street a week ago
3:17Ain't nobody talking they keep it on the low
3:20Don't open your mouth when they knocking at your do'
3:23'Cause *** die out here for snitching
3:25They die for snitching okay
3:29These *** die out here for snitching
3:31They die for snitching okay
