One More Day

We would like for you to help us welcome

A very distinguished speaker

He hails from the DPG

Would you please stand and welcome

The one, the only, OG Nate Dogg

Now I was about eight when I caught my first case

My mother, she turned her back and bowed her head in disgrace

Now I didn't do a thing, I was just standing by

Here's a message to the youngsters today: standing by, you can die

Usually I'm in the house, but today I snuck off

And when I walked down the Long Beach streets

What a lesson they taught

While walking to the corner store, a big mistake was made

My big homie I was walking with decided he needed to get paid

So he loaded up his .32 and walked right in the store

He said, "Dear God, forgive me, please, but I can't be broke no more"

Now remember, I was just eight, I thought this was a joke

What I'm saying, I ain't playing, it

Was funny 'til that nigga got smoked

Can you guess who that could've been? You know quite easily

But it wasn't, so I'm lucky to be standing right here to see

One more day

One more day

One more day

One more day

One more day, I'm hanging around so I can see

Little Nate have a pocket full of money just like his daddy

Every day I'm selling big dope, it's all that I know

I ain't working and I got a baby, so don't ask me what for

One more day, gather 'round everybody and listen to me

I got another story about the penitentiary (One more day)

See, while I was serving cavi, I forgot to think

Say, for instance, they catch me, little Nate'll never see

Now remember, I'm selling big dope, but I'm packing my things

At every corner, police watching

I ain't crazy, so I'm leaving the game

(I'm leaving the game)

But I guess I waited too late, 'cause they just caught me

Now I'm locked up, every morning I am praying for my son's safety

(One more day)

Lord, I'd like to thank you for watching over my D-O double G
