[Eminem] Yo, yo, I start it off, yo, yo My name is Shady, his name is Proof Yo, we used to have a roof up on my house And now we had a mouse that ate the cheese out of the fridge Didn't want to admit that I was on welfare when I was three Plus when I was four, my mother used to leave She used to always slam the door and say "Goodbye, goodbye Marshall, I'm leaving I'm single and right now I'm going to mingle at bingo "Yeah, see you later alligator" is what she said And I would always stay at house freezing til I'm dead Cause it was cold inside that house we never had no heat Yo Proof used to come walking up right up the street and be like "Yo what up Em? How you doing?" I used be like "Yeah man it's good to see you dawg But my life's ruined cause my mom just left" She left my brother Nate and I hate the fact We never had no food on our plate So then Proof said "What up Em?" Yo, so I said "Proof won't you come in?"
[Proof] Yeah, yeah, come in what’s up with dat Tango and Cash Came to mingle and blast Together tougher than Alcatraz prison bars Driving foreign cars Yes it's me and my man compadre Black and white, white and ivory and black ebony They can't step to me Rubbery and heavenly They can't see us in the 313 vicinity Aiyyo Em, ha, ha, ha, ha

[Eminem] Here's my address This is my old address And called: a street called Dresden Yo, dead president is what I'm resurrecting Gotta say "what's up?" to Desmond and J.L.B But yo they don't help me do a thing, they never did When I was a clever kid rhyming I always used to go to school And climb in the back baseball diamond
