Lyrics:

This is how we do it

(This is how we do it)

(This is how we do it)

This is how we do it

It's Friday night and I feel all right

The party is here on the West side

So I reach for my 40 and I turn it up

Designated driver take the keys to my truck

Hit the shore 'cause I'm faded

Honey's in the street say, Monty, yo we made it

It feels so good in my hood tonight

The summertime skirts and my guys in Kani

All the gang bangers forgot about the drive-by

You gotta get your groove on before you go get paid

So tip up your cup and throw your hands up

And let me hear the party say

I'm kinda buzzed and it's all because

(This is how we do it)

South Central does it like nobody does

(This is how we do it)

To all my neighbors, you got much flavor

(This is how we do it)

Let's flip the track, bring the old school back

(This is how we do it)

This is how we do it, all hands are in the air

And wave them from here to there

If you're an OG mack or a wanna-be player

You see the hood's been good to me

Ever since I was a lower case G

But now I'm a big G

The girls see I got the money

Hundred dollar bills, y'all

If you were from where I'm from

Then you would know

That I gotta get mine in a big black truck

You can get yours in a '64

Whatever it is, the party's underway

So tip up your cup and throw your hands up

And let me hear the party say

I'm kinda buzzed, it's all because

(This is how we do it)

South Central does it like nobody does

(This is how we do it)

To all my neighbors, you got much flavor

(This is how we do it)

Let's flip the track, bring the old school back

(This is how we do it)

I'm kinda buzzed, it's all because

(This is how we do it)

South Central does it like nobody does, nobody does

(This is how we do it)

YNV, SCC

(This is how we do it) All my homies

I'll never come wack on an old school track

(This is how we do it)

Check it out

Once upon a time in '94

Montell made no money and life sure was slow

And all they said was 6'8 he stood

And people thought the music that he made was good

There lived a DJ and Paul was his name

He came up to Monty, this is what he said

You and OG are gonna make some cash

Sell a million records and we're making the dash

Oh, I'm buzzing because

(This is how we do it)

South Central does it like nobody does

(This is how we do it)

To all my neighbors, you got much flavor

(This is how we do it)

I'll never come wack on an old school track

(This is how we do it)

I'm kinda buzzed, it's all because

(This is how we do it)

South Central does it like nobody does, nobody does

(This is how we do it)

Oh, it's party time

(This is how we do it)

Straight up coming from the west side

(This is how we do it)

Oh, she's got the flavor, yeah

(This is how we do it)

And Monty does it like nobody does

(This is how we do it)

Come on now, Def Jam

You know that this is how we do it

This is how we do it

Songwriter:

Yo Montell, this Percy, man, the barber, your barber

Man, I'm sitting up here listening to your tape, dude

And this shit is on, man

You gon' make it, fool

Keep on doing what you doing, man

My phone number is area code 909, 0, 80

Gimme a call, man

We getting ready to step out to the Fox Hills Mall right now, but uh

It's Monday morning about a quarter to eleven, peace
