Lyrics:

[English]

- [Pimp C] Man don't do it. I'm tellin' you don't do it.

- [Man 1] Mm-mm.

- [Pimp C] Don't do it.

- [Man 2] He's already nervous man.

- [DJ Paul] The only thing I wanna know is,

why is he dressed like Rowdie Piper?

- [Andre 3000] I got Scottish in my family.

- [Bun B] Scottish?

- Come on man.

- So who's your bridesmaid?

- Come on man. Support me. Support me. Come on now.

When the man is ready, he ready.

When y'all get 80, 70, 60, 55 years old and y'all gonna be

sitting in a rocking chair by yourself to

"Ahh, let's go to the club. Let's go to the club."

Y'all gonna be the only old (silence) in the club.

- Seriously, Dre, all playing aside man.
