Yo Mama And Nem

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Down south, baby, you can feel the heat Front porch talk and a two-step beat Say “wassup boss” when you cross my path Or “what up big Dogg” and I might just laugh You know the code when the screen door creak Talk slow, smile broad, let the words stay sweet If I say “boy, sit down,” that ain’t no fight That mean I know your peoples, you gon’ be all right [Pre-Chorus] I know yo mama and nem I know yo cousins and them So keep it clean when you step Or we gon’ check that chin [Chorus] That’s a southern thang That’s a southern thang Wassup boss, hoss, what up big Dogg That’s a southern thang That’s a southern thang That’s a southern thang I know yo mama and nem Boy, sit down again [Verse 2] From the gas station line to the church fan wave To the sweet tea spill on a Saturday Old heads nod when the truck rolls by Little kids run up with a “hey” so high Ain’t rude, just proud, got a whole way of talk Say less, mean more when you stroll that walk If I call you family, I’m keeping it real That’s a front-porch truth and a handshake deal [Pre-Chorus] I know yo mama and nem Ain’t no need to pretend If you act too extra here The whole block gon’ grin [Chorus] That’s a southern thang That’s a southern thang Wassup boss, hoss, what up big Dogg That’s a southern thang That’s a southern thang That’s a southern thang I know yo mama and nem Boy, sit down again [Bridge] Hold up now, let the brass come through Slow drag step when the whole town move Ain’t no cap in the drawl, it’s straight up true One hand wave and a “how you do?” [Final Chorus] That’s a southern thang That’s a southern thang Wassup boss, hoss, what up big Dogg That’s a southern thang That’s a southern thang That’s a southern thang I know yo mama and nem Boy, sit down again That’s a southern thang That’s a southern thang Down south love, loud and plain That’s a southern thang
