Downtown 81 Lyrics

[Intro]
Walk around
With your head up high (With your head up high, uh)
In the street I stop
But you walk on by (But you walk on by, Marci muh'fucker)
Sophisticated lady (Yeah)
I know I drive you crazy
Don't lie (Don't lie baby)
Don't lie (Don't lie)
Yeah, come on, yo

[Verse]
At the penthouse, breaking bread with a thick brickhouse
I dicked her down, she took that shit like a big gal
The picture fell
I ain't gotta have a pitch for this to sell, this shit sell itself
Redbone bitch with the yellow tail eating yellowtail
Picture me jealous, hoe, LOL, LMAO
The old white Alfa Romeo look like yayo (White)
I'm on my way yo (I'm on my way)
If the clothes made by Josue then it's fuego (Fire)
The coat got flames on it like it came straight from Waco (yeah)
The cream suede Kanyes is alfredo (uh) Scott Baio (uh)
Mayo, I'm waving "Hi" to a hater, bitch, I'm Maino
Drive-by spray your Loreto with five Dracos
The behind on the Wraith though, it look like one of Drake hoes
The shape is cold (Cold) I'm baking coke
I made all this cake, I'm scraping the bowl like a eight year old (mmhm)
Shake you out your J's, made your ankle roll (Uh)
Do you dirty like Kobe did Jalen Rose
[Refrain]
Uh, give you 81
Basquiat Downtown 81
Uh, 81
Basquiat Downtown 81
The Gucci frames was made in '81
I'm in the Mercedes, I'm doing 81
Kobe gave the homie Jalen 81 (Yeah)
81

[Outro]
Yeah, like that, straight like that nigga

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
