It's about that money

[puffy]
Yo short man
I was with this chick last night
She was like, hey diddy, ummm diddy
Why you so motherfuckin fly
I had to tell her bitch Im just about that paper beotch

[female singer] (puffy)
Its about that paper
(make it hot)
If its about that bullshit
(make it stop)
If you got that paper we can roll
No time for hataz , gotta go

[too short]
I flew to l.a. just last week
Jumped in the limo, checked in the suite
Made a few calls, its time to go
Bust a few rhymes at the studio
You know I dont do it for the love of it
I love it but I do it for the love I get
Big checks, you think the sex is next
When I left the studio
I had to go do a show for the ten with the triple zeros
Thats why I never flipped with kilos
Flew up to the bay, then back to georgia
Had to catch a flight to tallahassee, florida
I did a show at the kapa luau
Short dog whatcha about to do now?
Im getting money, caught a flight to new york
Just another day in the life of too short

Its about that paper
(make it hot)
If its about that bullshit
(make it stop)
If you got that paper we can roll
No time for hataz , gotta go
Its about that money

Got to keep it coming
(make it stop)
Niggaz hate us all day long
(we can roll)
Cause we get our paper all night long
(gotta go)

[puffy]
Everything I do is a world premiere
I know youre not trying to front girl come here
I get up early in the morning work late at night
So when you talk about me you say it right
I get my pimp on whenever I get on
Pop, rock, rap, r&b its a hit song
I keep it moving no matter what your age
Bitches screaming out puff daddys on stage
Breaking necks, cashing checks
When Im not making money Im having sex
International, superstar
People wanna know just who you are
Im that laid jet rider
Mansion residing
If I throw a party youll be dancing all night and
Lets have some fun girl, its ok
I work hard now its time to play
Come on

Repeat 1

[too short]
I did a lot of work for the homies for the low-low
But I doing that kind of shit no more
Ask puff, fuck all that retirement stuff
I work to hard so the price went up
Im charging fifty for sixteen bars now
If you want a whole song its a hundred thou
Is it worth it? I aint no crook
A hundred thousand dollars might get you a hook
>from this nigga right here, I know you know
And you gotta pay extra for the video
So cut the check for the right amount
If not, you can wire it to my account
The only other way is to pay me cash
And aint nothing wrong with that
In fact give me the scratch in big stacks
Cause youre fucking with a real mack bitch get back
Back, bitch get back, back
Said bitch, said bitch said get your motherfuckin ass back
Thats right

Repeat 1

[too short] (puffy)
Thats right
So if you want me to do a guest appearance on your next album
Just remember one thing
Its gonna cost you man
Cause we gettin our money on
Thats right short dog in the house
(yeah) p diddy in the house
Short records, bad boy (bad boy)
Yeah thats right

Too short, too short
Gotta make that money

Bad boy, bad boy

Gotta take, gotta make, gotta catch that money, money

Repeat 2

[puff daddy]
