Ballin' on a Budget Lyrics


I'm just a big bang baller on a budget
Dank weed, smokin' like 'fuck it'
City slicker, country nigga, reppin' straight from Kentucky
Horseshoes and rabbit paws flossin', chicken closs for the lucky
40 flowers, Range Rovers, so they know the tailpipe's rustedCountry cookin', dog fightin', big body ridin'
Chillin' like a mug in Western Kentuck', showin' love
Summertime a funner time, smoke and gunner time
Sippin' Sprite and somethin' dark every fuckin' timeUhh, okay watch how the po' folk ball
Stomp through to mall in my overalls, the black Girbaud
No pager, no cellphone, no access at all
Just a pack of Dutch Masters and a pint of alcoholMy hooptie, with a down crew like Boots said
"You don't perm, fuck a fade
Let my hair swing back and forth like a germ
I'll nigga with sick shit, pull out this and stick it in this thick chick
Baby Mama drama, child support court and ain't worth the biscuit"What'cha know about them backwood country folk?
What'cha know about the 'Lac bone hundred spoke?
Jimmy Crack Corn, no fade, no comb
What'cha know about ballin' on a budget bro?

I'm just ballin' on a budget, yeaga
I'm just ballin' on a budget, yeaga
I'm just ballin' on a budget, yeaga
It's the N the A the P P YPull up, dead horns on the hood of my truck
Kentucky Mud on my shoes and my socks
Hungry Jack, prefer tryin' to stuff some food in my gut
Country cat in the cowboy hat
I'm front to back put the house on thatCandied yams, chitlins, greens, and smoked country ham
Chicken wings, cornbread, gran in the kitchen throwin' down
Eat good, tryin' a smoke somethin', run up on a pound
Roll somethin', gut a Vega tryin' a stuff it with a ounceHummin', Mama cookin' that mean it's Sunday mo'nin
Half a pint of bootleg gin, it keep my goin'
Fat knot, [Incomprehensible], bad daylight
Cigars and happy bags, man we stay rightAww man, we go back, like sweet pickle book clubs
Nigga that was good love, summertime bathin' in a foot tub
Damn that shit hurt and my jams in that shirt
Atari 26, one stick never workedWhat'cha know about them backwood country folk?
What'cha know about the 'Lac bone hundred spoke?
Jimmy Crack Corn, no fade, no comb
What'cha know about ballin' on a budget bro?
I'm just ballin' on a budget, yeaga
I'm just ballin' on a budget, yeaga
I'm just ballin' on a budget, yeaga
It's the N the A the P P YComin' up in the woods all I did was run barefoot
Ne'er could comb my hair good
My hairline grew like ten pound vines
'Tween my rib and my underwear
It's still a thin brown line, shitChores did and Ma work out on the clothin' line
Cool as shit, country boys out on the grind
River views, picnic, big ticks covered the place
Folks visit and make it apparent to come back againLook here, see I smoke like a fire and I drink like a fish
That's it, Ecstasy just ain't on my list
No comb, no brush, no fade, no pick
No shit, no hair and you get no dickNow we love them gals that love themselves, them southern belles
Them Clydesdale Kentucky gals with muddy tails
We cut them gals, no veils, no wedding bells
Trick on cheap hotels, KY gels and nothin' elseWhat'cha know about them backwood country folk?
What'cha know about the 'Lac bone hundred spoke?
Jimmy Crack Corn, no fade, no comb
What'cha know about ballin' on a budget bro?
I'm just ballin' on a budget, yeaga
I'm just ballin' on a budget, yeaga
I'm just ballin' on a budget, yeaga
It's the N the A the P P Y

Nappy Roots are an American hip hop sextet that originated in Kentucky in 1995, best known for their hit 2002 single "Awnaw". Their music can be categorized as alternative Southern rap.

The members of the group met while studying at Western Kentucky University in Bowling Green, Kentucky. The group consists of Kentucky and Oakland, California natives Skinny DeVille, B. Stille, Ron Clutch, Big V, R. Prophet, and Fishscales.

Their debut album Country Fried Cess was released in 1998. Eventually, they were signed to the major label Atlantic Records and rose to fame with their first album on the label, 2002's Watermelon, Chicken & Gritz. The album featured the singles "Headz up", "Awnaw" (whose remix featured Marcos Curiel), and "Po' Folks" (featuring Anthony Hamilton). Their next album Wooden Leather, released in 2003, featured the singles "Roun' the Globe" and "Sick and Tired" (featuring Anthony Hamilton). This critically acclaimed, major label follow up album, "Wooden Leather" featured production from Kanye West, David Banner and Lil Jon.

Since the release of Wooden Leather they are back to being independent artists, and have started their own label, N.R.E.G (Nappy Roots Entertainment Group) with distribution through Fontana/Universal Music Group. On July 31, 2007, they released their first album as independent artists, Innerstate Music featuring singles "Good Day" and "Keep It Real". This was actually an internet album, similar to a modern day mixtape. It was intended to be a precursor to their 2008 album, The Humdinger which was released on August 5th 2008.

In 2008, the Nappy Roots returned to the spotlight with an internet campaign targeting the mega-popular hip-hop sites such as Allhiphop, HiphopDX, Sohh, 2dopeboyz, Dubcnn, XXL Mag and BallerStatus, etc.[3] The critically-acclaimed album, The Humdinger features guest appearances from Anthony Hamilton, Greg Nice, Greg Street and Slick & Rose, with production from Sol Messiah, Groove Chambers, Big Al, Joe Hop and more. The Humdinger entered the Billboard Rap Charts at #7 and R&B/Hip-Hop Albums at #13.

Nappy Roots last toured across the country on the "Pursuit of Nappyness" tour. Fish Scales, Skinny DeVille, and Big V began their Humdinger Winter Tour on January 14, 2009 in Chicago, IL.

In 2009, NREG anticipates the release of 40 Akerz from Fish Scales and Skinny DeVille as well as an independent project from Big V.

Nappy Roots will kick off 2010 with their highly anticipated new album, "Pursuit of Nappiness", due to release April 20, 2010. The album will feature songs produced by a quickly emerging production duo from Atlanta, GA by the name of Phivestarr Productions.
