Jackpot Lyrics


Get up, everybody jump, woo
Jackpot, split shot on my line doing fine the snapper I got
The bounty, blessed to the amount
We never guessed the best is yet to come
We came to rock the fucking block
If you don't come new then you might get dropped
I think it strange, the thing's the same, carry on
Seem so deranged like the one they call will be gone
With a touch of my wand
You are my God, you're my guardian
I hit the jackpot, I'm the lucky one
My fortune endless, never coming undone
Moving, I'm a nomad and all the girls and boys
Know the noise is rad
The treasure is soul, aren't you glad?
I get psychedelic with a pen and a pad
Room enough to know it's about that critical
Find it difficult to be so analytical

I'm filled with hope, the rope it won't hang you
Sit your ass down and come in Rangoon
Right about now, it's about that time
You know I crack the coconut and I twist up the lime
I been known to roll like a Seminole warrior
Passing up the tales like the one they wrote the story for
Woo, everybody jump
What are the chances? The odds must enhanced
It's a wild card that you threw
Of all the places to end up it amazes me
After all we've been through
Jackpot, all the people say, whoa
Jackpot, lemme hear you say, whoa
Jackpot, uh what, whoa
Give 'em what you got 'til you hit that spot, whoa
We hit the jackpot, the lotto, lucky dot
So the path that we tread, we pave the bars of gold
Now we got it, how we bought it
Sweating from stage to stage, a lot of it
And if we won the chance to dance and do it all again
We wouldn't change a thing, there is no other end
The pinnacle we reached, we knew it was possible
How we got here overcoming obstacles
Right about now it's about that time
You know I crack the coconut and I twist up the lime
I've been on the road like a Seminole warrior
Passing up the tales like the one they wrote the story for
Reside West Coast from the Mid West
Take what you like and fuck all the rest, man
We only enter in one contest
That we made up ourselves that's to be the 311'est
Woo, everybody jump
What are the chances, the odds must be enhanced
It's a wild card that you threw
Of all the places to end up, it amazes me
After all we've been through
What are the chances, the odds must be enhanced
It's a wild card that you threw
Of all the places to end up, it amazes me
After all we've been through
Jackpot, all the people say, woah
Jackpot, let me hear you say, woah
Jackpot, uh, what? Woah
Give 'em what you got 'til you hit that spot, woah
Woo, to the death of dismay
Uh, disc jock to the truth just hock

Howard Bailey, Jr. (born March 9, 1980 in St. Louis, Missouri), better known by his stage name Chingy, is an American rapper, actor and entrepreneur. Following in the footsteps of his heroes Ice Cube and RUN-DMC, he began writing lyrics at age nine and was recording at ten. He originally considered the stage name H.Thugzy before settling on Chingy, a slang term for money. With the release of the track "Right Thurr" Chingy became an overnight sensation, with the track peaking at number four on the Billboard 100. His highly anticipated debut album Jackpot was released in 2003, and it was received well by critics and fans alike. Within a year of its release, Jackpot was certified RIAA 3x Platinum. Chingy released his second album, Powerballin', on November 16, 2004, and his third album Hoodstar was released on September 19, 2006. Hate It or Love It is the fourth studio album by Chingy, released in 2007. His newest album, Success And Failure, will be released sometime in 2009.

His hits date back to 2003 and include: "Right Thurr," "Holidae In," "One Call Away" featuring J-Weav, "Balla Baby" and more recently, "Pullin' Me Back" featuring Tyrese and "Dem Jeans featuring Jermaine Dupri." He has also taken part in the "Get Low (Remix)" music video. Chingy goes by the logo "G.I.B.", which stands for Git It Boyz. He was on the road from August 06-January 07 and is now in his hometown St. Louis helping his younger cousin Young Spiffy create his debut album Troublemaka. Spiffy will be the first off his label Slot-A-Lot.

Career

St. Louis based Fo-Reel Entertainment home of artists such as Nelly claim to have discovered the talented Chingy, and he was often seen during his early days with their entourage. However as time passed Chingy began to distance himself, during which time a feud emerged between Nelly and Chingy. Shortly after, he emerged once again as a member of Ludacris' southern hip hop record label DTP. His relationship with DTP was hugely successful and lead to a successful debut consisting of the lead single "Right Thurr", "Holidae In", and "One Call Away". But later in 2005, Chingy had a monetary dispute with DTP, causing him to leave the label. He released Powerballin' the same year, yielding the singles "Balla Baby" and "Don't Worry". His debut single only made success into the Billboard top 20. In 2006, he squashed his beef with Nelly and appeared in Ali & Gipp's new video "Go Head". He stated in Rap City that he has no beef with Ludacris. He released his third album Hoodstar, releasing "Pullin' Me Back", "Dem Jeans", and "Nike Aurr's and Crispy Tee's". He is currently dating a girl called Georgia Lowell who was a former prostitute and stripper in the United Kingdom, however he recently announced it to be rumours. Around March 2007, Chingy started appearing in advertisements for Party with a Star.com, with whom he has signed a contract to have a one hour meet and greet with the contest winner, along with other former celebrities and reality stars Ant (comedian), Cindy Margolis, Traci Bingham, Steve-O, and Vanilla Ice.
