 Send "Ghetto" Ringtone to your Cell 

  feat. Petey Pablo

[Sticky Fingaz - talking]
If you're makin the check to cash in place
If you put on panty-hoes instead of shavin you're
legs
If you use grease that you used over and over
again
If you only go to church on easter and holidays
Then you ghetto, believe that

[chorus - Petey Pablo]
Can you be rich and be ghetto? (yes)
And just cause you're poor do that mean that
you're ghetto? (no)
So people don't understandwhat means to be ghetto
And if you gonna ask them you wind up with no

[Sticky Fingaz (Petey Pablo)]
Meaning of ghetto
It's just the things we do sometimes
Like hanging your clothes on the oven to dry
But yo're late, you gotta goand they ain't ready
yet
(Put 'em on anyway and rock them halfway wet)
First you wear then return
Everything you buy, always lookin for a discount
til the day you die
You got three kids, about three different guys
(No one can't tell it, that's wrong what you did)
Put salt on your food
Before you even taste i, give it doggy bag
Shit, it's ghetto, it ain't wasted
You know you ghetto, no, you know you're grinded
(Well rub your dirty pants til these f**kersget
shiny)
 

[chorus 2x]

[Sticky Fingaz (Petey Pablo)]
It's not a place, it don't matter what colour you
are
You can be white as shark or as black as Stark
And it really don't matterhow much money you have
(You canlive on fifth ave. and be ghetto as that)
You know you're ghetto when your soap is the size
of check list
Run into the kitchen for dishwashin liquid
The water's cold cause they shut off all your
power
(You know you're ghetto if you pee in the shower)
No toilet paper, somebody used the last you had
No problem, just get a Daily News and a paperbag
Falter it up and pumble to make it softer for
your ass
(And when you flush, thetoilet always gets popped
up)
And if you got the money, the landlord never gets
it
We never pay the rent, yo we almost got evicted
This shitis funny or offendin you
(Chances are, it's because you're ghetto too)

[chorus 2x]

Can you be rich and be ghetto (3x)
And if you gonna ask them you wind up with no

East Coast is the ghetto
West Coast is the ghetto
South Side is the ghetto
Everywhere is the ghetto
