This Is How We Do It
Montell Jordan

Capo 2

Bm
This is how we do it.
     A
It's Friday night,
      Em
and I feel all right

    Bm
The party is here on the West side
     A
So I reach for my 40 and I turn it up
Em
Designated driver take the keys to my truck
Bm
  Hit the shore 'cause I'm faded
A
Honeys in the street say, "Monty, yo we made it!"
Em                       Bm
  It feels so good in my hood

  tonight

    Bm                        A
The summertime skirts and the guys in Kani
Em
All the gang-bangers forgot about the drive-by
Bm
  You gotta get your groove on,
A
before you go get paid
   Em
So tip up your cup and throw your hands up
    Bm
And let me hear the party say

Bm                        A
I'm kinda buzzed and it's all because
Em
(This is how we do it)
      Bm                   A
South Central does it like nobody does
Em
(This is how we do it)
   Bm                   A
To all my neighbors you got much flavor
Em
(This is how we do it)
      Bm                           A
Let's flip up the track, bring the old school back
Em
(This is how we do it)

Bm
This is how we do it,
    A
all hands are in the air
    Em
And wave them from here to there
             Bm             A               Em
If you're an O.G. mack or a wanna-be player

(NC)
You see the hood's been good to me

Ever since I was a lower-case G

But now I'm a big G.

money, hundred-dollar bills y'all

   Bm           A
If you were from where I'm from then
Em
   you would know
Bm                         A
That I gotta get mine in a big black truck
        Em
You can get yours in a '64
Bm
   Whatever it is,
    A
the party's underway
   Em
So tip up your cup and throw your hands up
    Bm
And let me hear the party say

(chorus)
I'm kinda buzzed and it's all because
 (This is how we do it)
 South Central does it like nobody does
 (This is how we do it)
 YNV, SCC, all my homies
 (This is how we do it)
 I'll never come wack on an old school track

[Rap:]
 Check it out!
 Once upon a time in '94
 Montell made no money and life sure was slow
 All they said was 6'8" he stood
 And people thought the music that he made was good
 There lived a D.J. and Paul was his name
 He came up to Monty, this is what he said
 You and OG are gonna make some cash
 Sell a million records and we'll make in a dash

Bm                        A
Oh i'm buzzing          because
Em
(This is how we do it)
      Bm                   A
South Central does it like nobody does
Em
(This is how we do it)
   Bm                   A
To all my neighbors you got much flavor
Em
(This is how we do it)
      Bm                           A
Let's flip up the track, bring the old school back
Em
(This is how we do it) - repeat to end.
