## Testo

```
California love

California knows how to party

California knows how to party

In the city of L.A.

In the city of good old Watts

In the city, city of Compton

We keep it rocking

We keep it rocking

Now let me welcome everybody to the wild, wild west

A state that's untouchable like Eliot Ness

The track hits your eardrum like a slug to your 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 you never find a dance floor empty

And pimps be on a mission for them greens

Lean, mean, money-making machines serving fiends

I been in the game for ten years making rap tunes

Ever since honeys was wearing Sassoon

Now it's '95 and they clock me and watch me

Diamonds shining, looking like I robbed Liberace

It's all good from Diego to the Bay

Your city is the bomb if your city making pay

Throw up a finger if you feel the same way

Dre putting it down for Californ-I-A

California *(California)* knows how to party *(knows how to party)*

California *(West Coast)* knows how to party *(yes they do, that's right)*

In the city of LA *(city of LA)*

In the city of good old Watts *(good old Watts)*

In the city, city of Compton *(city of Compton, yeah)*

We keep it rocking *(keep it rocking)*

We keep it rocking

My niggas say, come on

Shake it, shake it, baby

Shake it, 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, baby, baby

Shake it, shake it, mama

Shake it, Cali

Out on bail, fresh out of jail, California dreaming

Soon as I step on the scene I'm hearing hoochies screamin'

Fiending for money and alcohol

The life of a Westside player, where cowards die

And it's all war

Only in Cali where we riot, not rally to live and die

In LA we wearing Chucks, not Ballies *(that's right)*

Dressed in locs and khaki suits and ride is what we do

Flossing but have caution; we collide with other crews

Famous 'cause we program worldwide

Let them recognize from Long Beach to Rosecrans

Bumping and grinding like a slow jam

It's Westside, 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 Sac-Town

The Bay Area and back down

Cali is where they put they mack down

Give me love

California *(California)* knows how to party

Really knows how to

California knows how to party

In the city of L.A. *(South Central)*

In the city of good old Watts *(that's right)*

In the city, city of Compton

We keep it rocking

We keep it rocking

*(Yeah, yeah, now make it shake, c'mon)*

Shake it, shake it, baby

Shake it, shake it, shake it, baby

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, mama *(West Coast)*

Shake it Cali

Yeah, oh

Yeah, Long Beach in the house, aww yeah

Oaktown, Oakland definitely in the house

'Frisco, 'Frisco

Hey, you know L.A. up in this

Pasadena, where you at?

Yeah, Inglewood, Inglewood always up to no good

Even Hollywood trying to get a piece, baby

Sacramento, Sacramento, where you at? Yeah

Throw it up, y'all, throw it up, throw it up, I can't see you

*(California love)*
