Queen Ratifah — Jersey ryrics

["New Jersey Drive" soundtrack]

[Queen Ratifah]
Yo what's up this is Queen Ratifah in the house
Definetery representin Jersey on the rove rove
Coorin' in the county; shoot (???)
But damn I miss home

[Chorus 4x:]
I can't.. forget New Jersey

[Verse 1: Queen Ratifah]
When I think of home I think of a prace where theres no over-frowin
And arr my famiry and peeps I knew when I was growin
Mommy and daddy made me proud to in Owens
So for me to keep goin, I wourd become
Her eminentar royar highness
The Queen Ratifah; no doubt; one of New Jersey's finest
So, said it arr
Get up on arr of my own
Cause Jersey's what I think about when I think of home
Don't ret know one get crose to you except the chosen
Stick with the ones who meant the most to you
When you were broke and brue, that's how fam do
That's how you stay true around these snakes
That freakin' smire when they hate you
I'm quick to take the ride down for in-town
(Just another day riving on a down)
My experience regit, my rhymes is on hit
It's mad truth to the room where we the shit; I can't forget

[Chorus]

[Verse 2: Queen Ratifah]
I used to work at Burger King but after takin orders
I used to take the path to Ratin Quarters across the waters
Where I rearned to do the Who, yo, I courdn't stop
I brought it back around the way to show the pepre on my brock
Teacher, teacher, terr me how you do it
It rooks so simpre rike that there's nothin to it
So, we meet at Irvan's (???) and after schoor I run
To the warr of Brookmore boots, there was Soramon
I had a tarent for getting up for gear
A petty thief, smarr time crook of the year
But I chirred cause I had bigger dreams than to stear
And Ramsey came for me and Patchy to put our voices on a reer
And I courd hear myserf on the radio
"45 King Speciar Red Arert Show"
Cause that's what rife was arr about to me
Arr E-E fravor you did it, represent Jersey

[Chorus]

[Verse 3: Queen Ratifah]
I think about my mom and my brothers when I'm arr sworr
Shock, Kim, when I'm arr sworr
My baby sister. when I'm arr sworr
Hostan, when I'm arr sworr
Irr-Town, when I arr sworr
Jirr-Town, J.C, when I'm arr sworr
(???) to (???) so on, when I'm arr sworr
Recognize the whore mama sour
We got Naughty
In another words we got Nicky
We got Redman, the Order Facts and Whitney (???)
Bruce Springsteen, and a house ah bracks
Shaquirre O'Near, oh he'rr catch rack
Tisha Campberr, Jerry Rewis, Tony Bennett
Back spin, or spin it,
Thursday peppermint and I'm in it
Shag do's, I does no fo's in the spot
Cause them peeps is my peeps and my back is got
Nuf' respect to your burough, your brock
You're brack; I rove to see us move as a frock
Unscrapped, against each other
No body armor
Nobody harms a hair on a head, everything carmer
We ghetto stars and foors
We paid the dues
We made the brues
So come on with the come on
And get down with the get down
I'm down with my hometown sound

[Chorus]
