Ghostface Killah - Whip You With A Strap Lyrics






[Chorus: repeat 2X]
Take me across her lap, she used to whip me with a strap
When I was bad
Bad

[Verse 1]
Picture me snotty nose sittin on my aunt's lap
The kid like 5 or 6 shit I will curse back
I got it from the older folks sittin in the living room
everybody had cups stylistic song boom
but then came Darryl Mack lightin' all the reefer up
baby caught a contact I'm trying to tie my sneaker up
I'm missing all the loops strings going in the wrong holes
It feels like I'm wobbling, look at all these afros
Soon as I thought I was good the joke's on me
I heard a voice "get in the room, I get angry"
Sting my feet catch a tantrum
spit, scream, fuck that
Momma shake me real hard, then get the big gat
That's called the belt help me as I yelled
I'm in the room like (panting)"huh, huh, huh" with mad welps
ragged out, bad belt yes her presence was felt
Then get my black ass in the bed it's time crash out (crash out)

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
Despite the alcohol, I had a great old Mama
She famous for her slaps and to this day she's honored
But when I was a lil dude her son was a lil rude
I picked the peas off my plate and pour juice in her nigga food
Get beat, then I'd run and tell grandman "mama hit me for no reason"
She whipped me hard when I finished eatin
and felt that belt stingin after I wet that bed
Hid my drawers and start cryin, when she felt that bed
Caught another when I told her those the fake pro-keds
In the corner weavin and screamin trying to block my head (ahHH!)
Nowadays kids don't get beat, they get big treats
Fresh pair of sneaks, punishments like have a ceas
Back then when friends and neighbors would bust that ass
and bring you back to your momma she got the switch in the stash
That's back to back beatings
Only went outside for free lunch with welts on my legs still leakin yo

[Chorus]

  22. R.... K....

    anyone got an accapella to this??
    i feel like the mix could be so much better. whoever mixed this kinda sucks
    if you listen to the instrumental on donuts its sounds alot cleaner and more present and not distorted

  23. K.... ....

    DILLA DILLA DILLA DILLA 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

  24. T.... ....

    I recently released my first beattape, partly inspired by Dilla's Donuts. Check out my cover of One For Ghost here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esZaAKCDzls

  25. N.... P....

    So true growing up early 80s Staten Island 💯🔥👊 Free lunch PS18 G0Store McKee butter crunch joints

  26. I.... B....

    Not every time I got the strap did I deserve it, but I did deserve more straps than I got..

  27. D.... D....

    This whole album is that work

  28. 1.... ....

    I wanna dedicate this track to my mother, i play this for her some years ago & she bust up laughing. She hit my ass with anything she could get her hands on from belts, 2x4 stick, trophies, video tapes, keys, hangars, extension cords & even had a brick thrown at me but i ducked out the way. You're truly are appreciated!

    1.... ....

    1trl2 tell me this doesn't sound like some of the new Kanye beats

    1.... ....

    TCT U mean all of Kanye's beats. He is just like dilla, sampling old soul records to make joints

    1.... ....

    I mean I wouldn't say all of his beats. Alot of college drop out, late registration and some of graduation but 808, yeezus, MBDF, cruel summer, and life of Pablo was more electronic. Every now and then he would drop a throw back track like on watch the throne and bound 2 on yeezus but yeah I agree they are very similar. He definitely drew influence from RZA and Dilla. He kinda takes a price of every good producer even the newer ones

    1.... ....

    TCT That's true. He later albums & productions did have both electronic & rock elements to it but with the help of other producers involve. I worked as a audio engineer with producers all the time & after a certain amount of time they have to go with a different sound to keep themselves relevant

  29. m.... ....

    The combination Dilla and GFK is perfect!

  30. A.... F....

    I LOVE THIS FUCKING SONG !!!!

  31. d.... ....

    Wow.J Dilla was incredible producer.n Ghostface always deliver

  32. T.... D....

    This beat was always one of my favorites from Dilla

  33. H.... R....

    I jam in my room to this song regularly.

  34. K.... S....

    Dilla RIP

  35. x.... ....

    Holy fuck

  36. S.... H....

    This was an amazing album. DILLA X GHOST

    S.... H....

    I love this track

  37. M.... H....

    I remember my mom's used to make me go outside to get a switch to whoop my ass with it and don't come back until you get a big switch I used to take my sweet ass time coming back home I remember I got caught in the hallway smashing this girl Carmen she whooped my ass and her ass she told her mom she spanked her takes me back when I was a bad ass kid I used to get caught stealing I get a ass whooping from my mom and my pops when he got home from work

  38. S.... 4....

    Dilla lives forever

  39. W.... W....

    REST IN BEATS JAMES DEWITT YANCEY✊

  40. o.... D....

    Happy birthday Jdilla

    S.... w....

    Adam Gordon "fresh pair of sneaks, punishment like have a seat."

    S.... w....

    That ain't the only problem.

  42. O.... D....

    that was real hip hop now hip hop crony

  43. R.... H....

    12 people never got the strap when they were bad and now there disobedient

  44. R.... D....

    that siren shit is bangin yeeehhhhhiiinn

  45. E.... ....

    The title made me think this was about getting pistol whipped. Alas, it is about childhood corporal punishment.

    E.... ....

    Erocktyle thought the same.

    E.... ....

    Aka ass whippings from momma lol

    E.... ....

    I think about some sado shit hahaha

  46. T.... &....

    Dilla n Ghost dini

  47. M.... ....

    Really timeless. A lot of us can relate to this shit here. Dilla and ghost. They don't make shit like this anymore...

  48. J.... W....

    what sample is this from tho?

    J.... W....

    Luther Ingram- To The Other Man

    J.... W....

    Luther Ingram.... to the other man...

  49. K.... T....

    I thought it was only us Pakistanis that got beat...

    K.... T....

    Nah, bruh. People worldwide been getting whippings for time immemorial (Tony Soprano voice).

    K.... T....

    Everybody gets beat dude.

  50. M.... M....

    I would pay money to hear the instrumental on it's own.One of ghosts best stories I think

    M.... M....

    im sorry but this is a little funny

    M.... M....

    to be fair, i didn't realise this existed before about 3 minutes ago, i just assumed it was only an instrumental.

    M.... M....

    its on j dilla donut album.

    M.... M....

    J Dilla - One for Ghost - Donuts

    M.... M....

    The song started as an instrumental made for Ghostface by J Dilla on his deathbed, look up One for Ghost

  51. E.... B....

    Happy Bday Dilla

  52. K.... ....

    Damn Ghostface, maybe my boi outta get some face time with a motherfuckin' psychiatrist man, for real. Niggas probably somehere pissin' his sheets having night terrors about back-to-back beatings by every adult in his hood. Waking himself up in the middle of the night trying to hide his wet drawz n' shit

    K.... ....

    +KochuJang That shit really wasn't all that unusual when I was growing up. I still get a faster heart beat whenever I ear the sound of a belt getting pulled out of those loops.

  53. c.... ....

  83. m.... ....

    Someone really needs to make a video for this song. It is such a great narrative it doesn't need one but it would be nice to see. The song is great but I would really have love a verse between the 1st and 2nd.

    m.... ....

    You'd get sued for depicting this in video in any sort of way for child abuse.

  84. m.... ....

    Someone really needs to make a video for this song. It is such a great narrative it doesn't need one but it would be nice to see.
