Lyrics: California Love
California
Knows how to party
California
Knows how to party
In the citaaay of L.A.
In the citaaay of good old Watts
In the citaaay, city of Compton
We keep it rockin
We keep it rockin

Verse One: Dr. Dre

Now let me welcome everybody to the wild, wild, west
A state that's untouchable like Elliot Ness
The track hits ya eardrum like a slug to ya chest
Pack a vest for your jimmy in the city of sex
We in that sunshine state with a bomb ass hemp beat
The state where ya'll never find a dance floor empty
And pimps be, on a mission for them greens
Lean mean money-makin-machine servin' fiends
I been in the game for ten years makin' rap tunes
Ever since honeys was wearin' Sassoon
Now it's '95 and they clock me and watch me
Diamonds shinin'
Lookin like I robbed Liberachi
It's all good, from Diego to the Bay
Your city is tha bomb if your city makin pay (uh)
Throw up a finger if ya feel the same way
Dre puttin it down for
Californ-i-a

Chorus

California
Knows how to party
California (West coast)
Knows how to party (That's right)
In the citaaay of L.A. (yeah)
In the citaaay of good old Watts
In the citaaay, city of Compton
We keep it rockin
We keep it rockin

Yeah, now make it shake

Shake it shake it baby
Shake it shake it baby
Shake it shake it mama
Shake it Cali (Shake it Cali)
Shake it shake it baby (That's right)
Shake it shake it shake it shake it...
Shake it Cali

Verse Two: 2Pac

Out on bail
Fresh outta jail
California dreamin
Soon as I stepped on the scene
I'm hearin hoochies screamin'
Fiendin' for money and alcohol
The life of a west side playa
Where cowards die, and it's all ball
Only in Cali where we riot not rally to live and die
In L.A. we wear Chucks not Ballies (yeah that's right, uh)
Dressed in Locc's and khaki suits and ride is what we do
Flossin' but have caution we collide with other crews
Famous because we program
Worldwide, let'em recognize from Longbeach to Rosecrans
Bumpin' and grindin' like a slow jam
It's west side so you know the row won't bow down to no man
Say what you say
But give me that bomb beat from Dre
Let me serenade the streets of L.A.
From Oakland to Sactown
The Bay Area and back down
Cali is where they put they mack down
Give me love!

Chorus

California
Knows how to party
California
Knows how to party
In the citaaay of L.A. (South Central)
In the citaaay of good old Watts (Uh, that's right)
In the citaaay, city of Compton
We keep it rockin
We keep it rockin

Dre: Yeah, yeah, now make it shake, uh

Shake it shake it baby (uh)
Shake it shake it
Shake it shake it mama
Shake it Cali (Shake it Cali)
Shake it shake it baby (Shake it Cali)
Shake it shake it shake it shake it...
Shake it Cali

Outro

Pac: Cause you and I know it's tha best side

Dre: Yeah, that's right
Dre: West coast, west coast
Dre: Uh, California Love, California Love

Yeah

California

California
Knows how to party (Where they at?)
In the citaaay of L.A. (South Central)
In the citaaay of good old Watts
In the citaaay, city of Compton
