文本歌词

Now this is a story all about how
My life got flipped turned upside down
And I'd like to take a minute
Just sit right there
I'll tell you how I became the
Prince of a town called Bel Air
In west Philadelphia born and raised
On the playground was where
I spent most of my days
Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
And all shootin some b-ball
Outside of the school
When a couple of guys who
Were up to no good
Started making trouble in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared
She said you're movin' with
Your auntie and uncle in Bel Air
I begged and pleaded with her day after day
But she packed my suit case and sent me on my way
She gave me a kiss and then she gave me my ticket
I put my walkman on and said
I might as well kick it
First class yo this is bad
Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass
Is this what the people of Bel Air living like
Hmm this might be alright
Wait I hear they're prissy bourgeois all that
Is this the type of place that
They just send this cool cat
I don't think so
I'll see when I get there
I hope they're prepared for the prince of Bel Air
Well the plane landed and
When I came out
There was a dude who looked like
A cop standing there with my name out
I ain't trying to get arrested yet
I just got here
I sprang with the quickness like lightning disappeared
I whistled for a cab and when it came near
The license plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror
If anything I could say that this cab was rare
But I thought nah forget it
Yo homes to Bel Air
I pulled up to the house about seven or eight
And I yelled to the cabbie you homes smell ya later
I looked at my kingdom
I was finally there
To sit on my throne as the prince of Bel Air
