CRUISIN’! CRUISIN’! 12TH STREET VIBES!
(Boomin’ snare, funky bassline drops, Ice Cube-style)
Yo, it’s summertime, ‘95, we alive!
19, no cares, just ridin’ the drive!
Verse 1
Rollin’ down 12th, Mustang’s purrin’ loud,
Camaro’s flexin’ chrome, drawin’ girls in the crowd.
19, carefree, summer’s got me high,
Chasin’ hot chicks, watch ‘em wink as we fly!
Top down, breeze hittin’, speakers bumpin’ Cube,
Taco Bell at midnight, that’s our late-night food.
Cops just nod, “Keep it cool, y’all, cruise on,”
Didn’t know these nights were the best, now they’re gone!
Chorus
Cruisin’ up and down 12th, no cares in my mind!
Hot cars, hot girls, summer’s one of a kind!
Wish we knew back then, these were the best days,
Cruisin’ 12th Street, man, that vibe won’t fade!CRUISIN’! CRUISIN’!
Verse 2
See a shorty in a sundress, smilin’ like a star,
She’s givin’ me that look, yo, I’m leanin’ from the car.
Mustang’s red-hot, paint gleamin’ in the sun,
We’re young and dumb, just chasin’ all the fun!
Hit the strip again, Camaros roarin’ past,
Laughin’ with my homies, wish this summer would last.
Taco Bell’s our spot, crunchwraps fuel the night,
Cops roll by slow, but they’re keepin’ it light!
Chorus
Cruisin’ up and down 12th, no cares in my mind!
Hot cars, hot girls, summer’s one of a kind!
Wish we knew back then, these were the best days,
Cruisin’ 12th Street, man, that vibe won’t fade!
CRUISIN’! CRUISIN’!
Bridge
“Ayo, 19, we was kings of the street!
Mustangs, Camaros, girls bringin’ the heat!
Didn’t know we’d grow up, leave this life behind!”
Breakdown
Cruise it, cruise it, 12th Street’s the scene!
Summer nights, young hearts, livin’ the dream!
Cruise it, cruise it, wish we’d never grow old!
Best times of our lives, worth more than gold!
Verse 3
Now I’m lookin’ back, man, those days were the peak,
Ridin’ with no worries, every night was unique.
Just before we grew, ‘fore we turned into men,
Wish I’d held that summer, never knew it would end!
Mustangs, Camaros, girls with that glow,
Taco Bell runs, where the good vibes flow.
Cops let us cruise, kept the street feelin’ free,
12th Street summers, that’s my legacy!
Chorus
Cruisin’ up and down 12th, no cares in my mind!
Hot cars, hot girls, summer’s one of a kind!
Wish we knew back then, these were the best days,
Cruisin’ 12th Street, man, that vibe won’t fade!
CRUISIN’! CRUISIN’!
Outro
CRUISIN’! CRUISIN’! 12th Street’s the flame!
Summer nights forever, etched in my name!
Yeah, ‘95 vibes, we was livin’ it right! Peace out!
