Low Income lyrics

[Intro: Wyclef Jean & (Rose of Sharon)]
Let 'em feel the beat first
(Yo, what's up, Clef? This is ya little sister, Rose of Sharon
Gimme a call back when you get from your tour)
I'm 'bout to come through your stereo
('Cause this is Friday and I need some money
To go chill with my crew, so call me back)
Should I rhyme or start with the hook?
(Start with the hook) Start with the hook, okay

[Chorus: Wyclef Jean]
To my people who don't wanna go to work
Thank God it's Friday
Cover me she 'bout to put up her skirt
Thank God it's Friday
Do your mom know you act so berserk?
Thank God it's Friday
What's the track, what's the track girl?
She don't wanna, she don't wanna work on Monday
(I wanna thank my hood)

[Verse 1: Wyclef Jean]
For makin' me a star, before I had fast cars
And couldn't tell the difference between Whoppers and caviar
Before the fame, way before things changed
All I wanted to do was freestyle and get a name
I used to work at the fast food restaurant
For minimum wage, dreamin' I'm on stage
At 17, I left the house
'Cause my father was a minister and I didn't want the Marvin route
What's going on?
Today, to sell a song, you need a video with soft porn
MCs in the industry, you want a tip?
Don't let 'em pimp you like Goldie
And tell Sony they better have my money
'Cause I play with the Commodores and leave like Lionel Richie
Low Income, I stay so hungry
That if 50 Cent came to rob me he'd be part of my charity
