Song by Nate Dogg<br /><br>

[Intro:]<br>

<br>

We would like for you to help us welcome a very distinguished speaker<br>

He hails from the DPG<br>

Would you please stand and welcome the one, the only<br>

OG Nate Dogg<br>

<br>

[Verse 1:]<br>

<br>

Now I was about eight when I caught my first case<br>

My mother she turned her back and bowed her head in disgrace<br>

Now I didn't do a thing, I was just standing by<br>

Here's a message to the youngsters today: standing by you can die<br>

Usually I'm in the house but today I snuck home<br>

And when I walk down the Long Beach streets, what a lesson they taught<br>

While walkin to the cornerstore a big mistake was made<br>

My big homey I was walkin with decided he needed to get paid<br>

So he loaded up his .32 and walked right in the store<br>

He said "Dear God, forgive me please but I can't be broke no more"<br>

Now remember I was just eight, I thought this was a joke<br>

What I'm sayin I ain't playin, it was funny til that nigga got smoked<br>

Can you guess who that could've been quite easily?<br>

but it wasn't so I'm lucky to be standing right here to see<br>

<br>

[Chorus:]<br>

<br>

One more day, one more<br>

One more day<br>

One more day, one more<br>

One more day<br>

<br>

[Verse 2:]<br>

<br>

One more day, I'm hangin around so I can see<br>

little Nate have a pocket full of money just like his daddy<br>

Everyday I'm sellin big dope, it's all that I know<br>

I ain't workin and I got a baby so don't axe me what for<br>

One more day, gather round everybody and listen to me<br>

I gotta another story about the penitentiary<br>

One more day, see while I was servin cavi I forgot to think<br>

Say for instance they catch me, little Nate'll never see<br>

Now remember I'm sellin big dope but I'm packin my thangs<br>

and every corner police watchin, I ain't crazy so I'm leavin the game (I'm<br>

leavin the game)<br>

But I guess I waited too late cos they just caught me<br>

Now I'm locked up, every mornin I am prayin for my son's safety<br>

One more day, I'd like to thank you for watchin over my D-O-double G's<br>

and would you keep an extra eye on Nate Dogg especially<br>

I guess I'll just continue liftin from day to day<br>

and if I live to see tomorrow, thankyou for one more day<br>

<br>

[Chorus to fade]<br>

<br>
