PETEY PABLO LYRICS - Raise Up (All Cities Remix)

"Raise Up (All Cities Remix)"



This is David Nevermind

And today's controversy is coming from yet another member

or should I say members of the hip-hop community.

Petey Pablo - a new artist signed under

Jive has teamed up with Timbaland, outta V. A.

In a quest to redeem his title And

bring, North Carolina, and Virginia, to the front of the line.

We're gonna stand by



[Chorus]



This one's for North Carolina! C'mon and raise up

Take your shirt off, twist it 'round yo' head

Spin it like a helicopter. South Carolina! C'mon and raise up

This one's for you, uh-huh, this one's for who?

Us, us, us; yes sir!

Hot Atlanta. C'mon and raise up

Take your shirt off, twist

it round yo' head

Spin it like a helicopter. State of Virginia,

C'mon and raise up

This one's for you. uh-uh, this ones for who?

Us, us, us;yes sir!

How's it feel to lose to motherfucker that be real

Now tell 'em - "I told ya!"
