Lyrics Sir Mix-A-Lot

Sir Mix-A-Lot

Gold

Gold around his neck (8 ball rollin')

Gold around his neck (24-7)

Gold around his neck (8 ball rollin')

Gold around his neck (14k heaven)

Clockin' lots of dollars, cruisin' in his benz

Clockin' lots of dollars, got no place to go

Clockin' lots of dollars, rollin' with your posse

Clockin' lots of dollars, we all got gold

Listen up brothers it's the rhyme I can't repeat

I'm sportin' more gold than a rock 'n' roll freak

Mix is my name, bustin' rhymes is my game

Don't disrespect me cause I kill then I take your chain

Life is pretty tough gettin' gold's kinda rough

Stealin' and you're dealin' but you just can't get enough

Now you're crying cause my rope is 20 millimeters fat

You're stealin' gold emblems down at Fredrick Cadillac

Walkin' round San Fran, rippin' up the set

Homeboys on the corner ask us where we rock next

I'm not in town to smoke dope, if you broke you can't cope

We're back in San Francisco and we're looking for the gold rope

Saw the rock man and we tailed his benz

He drove Powell Street to where the trolley cars end

He sipped his soda pop, came to a complete stop

Looked over to the left it was a... gold shop!

Yo baby check out this big gold nugget ring!

Walked into the shop and I had to stare

This freak was in the corner with the long blonde hair

I knocked her out the way cause she was standin' in my vision

I saw this gold rope and Maharashi started fishin'

Walked up to the counter and we hit the bell

We all had money for the big gold sale

From back behind the counter came the big gold mon

Last name, kinda funny, but his first name was Jahan

He said, "Put your money down that's nothing to me

Got the real rock man buying my jewelry

So that mean I gots money from american games"

The AMG kick on my 516 Mercedes

So I reached into my pocket and I pulled thick bank

I would have bought the store but my bank just sank

I know I got points cause my gold shines bright

Gonna sport it to the solar system Saturday night

Maharashi's up next for the big gold deal

Flipped dead presidents and cold got ill

Smile on his face with a grand in his hand

Bought a Turkish gold rope with the 30 inch span

Kid Sensation was the next at bat

Bought a big nugget watch, face up a Cadillac

He saw this gold rope and said "How much for that to go?"

Told him 700 dollars everybody said "woooaaahhhh"

Security came over as the kid count bank

Gave him fourteen fifties and his face stayed blank

I grabbed the sack of gold and Jahan, we told 'em bye

We'd like to stay and kick it but we can't we gotta fly

Break!

We left the gold shop kinda broke but happy

Promoter put us up in an '86 Caddy

Crossed the Golden Gate and headed for the Napa Valley

No liter in the car because we threw it in the alley

Everybody's trippin' off the Mix-a-lot crew

Pose fresh dipped all filas are blue

Caddy pushin' 80 like a big black rocket

We're looking for a posse with no money in their pockets

We made a right turn there's the pose on the left

Before we get busy just remember we're def

Maharashi took the bank roll, Larry took the car

Kid Sensation had a plan thinking he was superstar

Step aside kid I control this jam

You are my partner and here's my scam

I'll take the homeboys you take the skeezer

The boys got gold but they ain't got filas

Larry made a move with the black briefcase

5000 dollars worth of fila in your face

They ain't got money but they had a lot of dope

I said I don't want drugs just give me your rope

To sell a suitcase of filas boy it ain't no thing

Just give me that gold that includes all rings

Maharashi snatched the gold out the homegirls nose

Man we would have took her bra if the sucka was gold

Gold around his neck (8 ball rollin')

Gold around his neck (24-7)

Gold around his neck (8 ball rollin')

Gold around his neck (14k heaven)
