Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Chorus

 I got this old school, the color of soul food

 Candied Yam racing strips, pipes potato white

 Cornbread interior trimmed in collard greens

 Air freshner smell like chicken and pork and beans [x2]

Verse

 I work the grave yard shift cause I'm dead on my feet ya'll

 really want to quit but the kids got to eat ya'll

 See money can't buy you power

 but it can pay the water bill on time so them kids can take a shower

 And I swear to GOD, if they keep on raising these gas prices

I'mma sell this Chevy and go buy me a bike

 I'm a King, but my crown in a lay-way

 And I'm just a day away from giving up.

Chorus x2

Credit card company called said my bill is overdue

Told them I couldn't afford to pay them and rent too

They told me they were gonna sue me

I said if you didn't want me to use it then you shouldn't have gave it to me.

And what's up with these people blowing up buildings

And nothing really gangsta about blowing up children

Would cry, but my eyes in a lay way and I just a day away from giving up.

Chorus x2

[Snoop Dogg]

Foreign places, court cases

Seems they always on my line

I don't trip, I just dip

Pop the top on my 69

Fleetwood, Cadillac

mirror with my Boys on back

Chandelier so superior

Louis Vitton, oatmeal interior

Bossy Boss, mink seats, what it cost

Speak yo peace, can't you see ain't no big deal

have a seat lil homie and enjoy your meal

Close the door and don't drop crumbs on my flo'

Here we go, soul food, so cool, and i got this.....

Chorus x2

Lyfe, Big Snoop, Soul Food, oh I got this greenery cause

we need some vegetables too, gotta have you vegetables

that's what it is old school, soul food

old school, soul food
