How many times must I ask and from you get no reply
About the cuts above your eyebrow and the bullet-wound on you thigh
I found a loaded Beretta inside your dresser drawer
& I found a red bandana lying on the bedroom floor

(Chorus)
My baby is a Blood, She’s straight out of the ‘hood
My girl she ain’t no Crip, I taste malt liquor on her lips
My baby is a Blood and I’m scared

In your car I found an empty forty and a twenty-sack
And I heard your girlfriend whisper, “Yo puta, I got your back”
What happened to my little girl The one I thought I knew
And how come when she buys her clothes they are no longer blue

(Chorus)
My baby is a Blood, She’s straight out of the ‘hood
My girl she ain’t no Crip, I taste malt liquor on her lips
My baby is a Blood and I’m scared

(Breakdown; a la Smashing Pumpkins)
She used to call me honey, now she calls me G
(She used to be a little G)
She used to hold me softly, but now she holds me up
(She used to wear blue)
We used to have a special thing; now it’s a special thang

(Chorus)
My baby is a Blood, She’s straight out of the ‘hood
My girl she ain’t no Crip, I taste malt liquor on her lips
My baby is a Blood and I’m scared

We got married and settled down, like we’d dreamed of oh so often
We got a cozy little love nest in the deepest part of Compton
We had a get-together to christen our new home
All of her friends taught all of my friends how to play Domino

(Chorus)
My baby is a Blood, She’s straight out of the ‘hood
My girl she ain’t no Crip, I taste malt liquor on her lips
My baby is a Blood and I’m scared
