Memphis City Blues 8Ball & MJG

[Intro: Corte Ellis]
Hmm...
Said I got the blues
Said I got the blues
Memphis City Blues

[Verse 1: 8Ball]
Light up the green, watch me light up the room
Watch me light up the mic, fat boy be the truth
Nigga live and learn, learn the streets or get burned
Niggas take what you earn, they be slick as a perm
Mayne, I try to be slicker, try to be cunning and quicker
Try to be more than just another broke ass nigga
In this game of life, lose your life in the game
Take a life full of pain, make you remember my name
From the home of the blues, thought I paid my dues
It's hard to fill my shoes, imitators abuse
I just love the music, like my heart or my brain
Couldn't live without it, that's impossible, mayne
I'm unstoppable, mayne, from the bottom I came
Niggas scratching for bread, stumbled up on the fame
Humble niggas with game, shut your mouth up and listen
Recognize it's a blessing, thankful just to be living

[Chorus: MJG, Corte Ellis]
I got the Memphis City Blues
Ooh, I could feel it now
The neighborhood pimps introduced us to pimping
And everybody we know
Used to play in them, streets oh man, oh man, oh man
I got the Memphis City Blues
Ooh, I could feel it now
The neighborhood pimps introduced us to pimping (This is how they put it down)
And everybody we know
Used to play in them, street oh man, oh man, oh man
