Full Lyrics of the Song
Verse 1:
“Where the hood, where the hood, where the hood at?
Where the hood, where the hood, where the hood at?
If you ain’t from the streets, don’t come around
You ain’t gonna make it ’round here, no way, no how
I’m a dog, you a cat, I’ma chase you out the house
You can bark all you want, but you ain’t gon’ take my mouse”
Chorus:
“Where the hood, where the hood, where the hood at?
Where the hood, where the hood, where the hood at?
If you ain’t from the streets, don’t come around
You ain’t gonna make it ’round here, no way, no how”

Where niggas don’t sleep and the heat never go away
Where niggas is wild and they ready to spray
Where them niggas from Yonkers, everyday, all day”

“Where the hood, where the hood, where the hood at?
Where the hood, where the hood, where the hood at?

Where niggas don’t play and they ready to spray
Where niggas is wild and they ready to fight
Where them niggas from Yonkers, all day, every night”
