(feat. Snoop Doggy Dogg, Warren G)
[Nate Dogg]
Friends, how many of us have them

Friends, how many of us have them
Friends, how many of us have them
Friends, how many of us have them


[Snoop Doggy Dogg]
Every since I could remember

I had friends I could depend on
Clothes to lend 'em
But as time went by

My life got a little strange
And the rules of the game seem to change
Trust, honesty and devotion

And money, money, money is the poison potion
There's no way that I can even say
That this game has been good to me

Or even bad to me it had to be
Cause tragically the way this %#@!
Cracked off for Doggy Dogg was magically

And now I'm gettin' everything I'm supposed to get
But my friendship with ^!$$%z always ends up as bul%#@!
I listen to my momma though

She always tried to prepare me
Byt how could she do what I
I mean I'm do or die

But my life on the streets
That %#@! is suicide
So to cope I got a dogg and a locc

And keep my heat close in case these jokes go for broke
I'm mashin' with the click 2-1-3 that is
They my homeboys ever since kids-

Real friends to the end

[Chorus (Nate Dogg):]


Hangin' out with my homies and I'm feelin' just fine
I've been ponderin' lately

A lot of different things on my mind
It seems lately my friends list
Done took a slight decline

And if you wanna know the trith man, man
Them wasn't no friends of mine


[Warren G]
You jackin' me up, you takin' my cash
All my life L-B-C, for my city I mash

All those OGs and BGs and wannabies and L-O-Cs
The only friends I got is my 2-1-3s
That's my ^!$$% Snoop D Woop and my ^!$$% N-A-T-E

I can't forget about my ^!$$% H to the Deezy
Pressure and strikes
Don't wann take no lives

But these jaws, cracks and hood cracks
Will make you break bizacks
"Whussup homie, can I borrow some cash?"

Last week I agve you 500, so kiss my $$#
I got a baby to feed
A familly to see through

And shake busta snitches tweekin' like you
Homies and friends that's what they for
Stayin' tight and money right

And bustin' with a 44.

[Chorus (x2)]
