[Nelly]
Welcome to Nellyville, where all newborns get a half-a-millī
Sons, get the tan DeVille, soon as they can reach the wheel
And daughters, get diamonds the size of their age - help me out now
One year get one carat, two years get two carats
Three years get three carats, and so on into marriage
Nobody livin average, everybody jang-a-lang
Nobody livin savage, eīrybody got change
Even the paperboy deliver out the back of a Range
Itīs not a game, itīs a beautiful thang
Imagine blocks and blocks of no cocaine, blocks with no gunplay
Ainīt nobody shot, so ainīt no news that day
Ainīt nobody snitchin, they refuse to say
Every month - we take a vote on what the weather should be
And if we vote it rains - know how wet we want it to be
And if we vote it snow - know how deep we want it to get
But the sun gonī shine 99 percent, in Nellyville
[Chorus]
Thereīs no.. way.. I.. I could explaiiiiin..
the way I feel right now
Thereīs no.. way.. I.. I could explaiiiiin..
the way I feel about livin in Nellyville
[Nelly]
I got that good at eīry gas station, pull on up
Give me a half a ounce of that shit, fill it up
We got straws for the bottles, outlaw the cups
And we gonī make it happen, ainīt no need for no luck
Ainīt no lotteries, no pick 3īs or pick 2īs
Keep the money in your family, gamble amongst your crew
Cause the dice gonī do what the dice gonī do
And if you take a life, you gonī lose yours too
Ainīt no trials, itīs automatic, you drop īem right where it happen
You do unto others if you donīt want it donīt do the cappin
Think thatīs cool? 40 acres and a mule
Fuck that! Nellyville - 40 acres and a pool
Six bedrooms, full bath with a jacuzzī
Six-car garage, pavement smooth
Both front and back deck īnough room to land a jet
And you ainīt reached the city, thatīs just the projects
[Chorus]
[Nelly] Everybody, uh, now everybody say
[Interlude]
Well I want to go, please let me go
I need to go - down to Nellyville
I need to see, what I can say
Wonīt you and me - go to Nellyville
I want to go, so bad
I just want to go and look
Wonīt you please take me on in
I just know I gotta be there
[Nelly]
No unexpectancy, like teenage pregnancy
And physical mental attraction your only ecstasy
Your own destiny, create your own recipe
If you ainīt livin accordin to dirty then you stressin me
"And who are you?" Who me? Iīm the mayor
And any problems you got, I live up thurr
"Whereīs that?" The house on the hill, welcome mat of fur
When you pass by that thang, be polite and donīt sturr
[Chorus]
..
[Outro]
Yeah
Thereīs no.. way.. yeah
Thereīs no.. way.. yeah
Thereīs no.. way.. yeah
Thereīs no.. way..
