Paroles: Too $hort. Life Is... Too Short. Oakland.

Oakland, O-O-O-Oakland
Oaktown, O-O-O-Oaktown
Oakland, Oakland, Oakland
O-O-O-Oaktown

Straight from the West, Oakland is the best
Baby, it's so fresh, Oakland
It's called the Big Bad O, city of players on the go
You gotta have Trues and Vogues, Oakland

Baby, that's my town, when all the tops come down
You'll hear my funky sound, O-O-O-Oaktown

O-A-K-L-A-N-D, that city was made for me
Just rocking to the beat, Oakland
Drop tops rolling down the strip, baby, it's the tip
Don't stop dipping till I quit, Oaktown

Trues and Vogues on my car, baby, I'm a star
I'm playing at Player's Park, Oakland
Everybody on the floor, do you really want some more?
We'll get funky like Playboy $hort, O-O-O-Oaktown

Oakland , Oakland
Oaktown, O-Oaktown
Oakland, Oakland
Just get on down

O-O-O
O-O-O-O
Oaktown

Westside coming through, Northside coming to it, too
East Oakland it's for you, Oakland
California A, can you hear me say?
Oakland is here to stay, Oakland

Oakland, O-O-O-Oakland
Oaktown, O-O-O-Oaktown
Oakland, O-Oakland
Oaktown, Oaktown

Straight from the West, Oakland is the best
Baby, it's so fresh, Oakland

Oakland, O-O-O-Oakland
Oakland, get on down

Straight from the West, Oakland is the best
Baby, it's so fresh, Oakland
Drop tops roll down the strip, baby, that's the tip
Don't stop dipping till I quit, Oakland

Trues and Vogues on my car, baby, I'm a star
I'm playing at Player's Park, Oakland

Oakland, O-O-O-Oakland
Oakland, get down
Oakland, Oaktown
Oakland, O-O-O-Oaktown
