Verse 1
(E minor) When I was 17 I was staying in NYC
And my homie told me where
I could get a fake ID
(A major) "Aiyo son you better get
that shit when (E minor) (A major) you in NY"
So I hopped on the subway and
(E minor) I gave it a try
Plesant surprise (A major) the ID looked (E minor) fine
5'9, blues eyes, born in 1979
Nervous as hell I went to the
store with my homie
Came out and yelled "Dawg they
sold me a 40"
Yeah, you know (G major) that I was the man
Buying the contraband with
(A major) a fake ass hologram
No more looking for (G major) bums,
standing in (E minor) the rain
Stranded on Broadway and giving
'em all my (A major) change
For the rest of the (B minor)
summer man I was on (A major) fades
17, had it made, (E minor) getting drunk everyday
Eh, I got treated a (A major) whole new way
Because of a piece of plastic (G major)
(E minor) that proved (A major) I was of age
Verse 2
You know what I'm saying, (A major)
all of a sudden you (G major) get this little piece of plastic and you're in the club

Verse 3
Now for the next three (G major) years I had
so (E minor) (G major) much fun
Get (E minor) ting drunk in Hip- Hop clubs
where you had to be 21
Then one day I was walking
and (A major) I (E minor) saw a sign
That said KRS- One 21 up and live
That's (B minor) hella tight
Aiyo I heard he always (G major)
(E minor) (G major) ripped (A major) it (G major) (E minor)
So I hopped (A major) up in my Civic
and went out to by a ticket
When I (E minor) got up the the door
the bouncer checking ID's
Looks at mine and he's like (A major) "Nah
(E minor) we don't take these"
I tried to reach and grab
my shit back
But the mother fucker was tougher
than Shaq, on crack
(A major) I should've punched (E minor) him, but
I would have reached his knee cap
Verse 4
And that probably wouldn't have
hurt (G major) him very (A major) much
Verse 5
He kept laughing and (B minor) smilin' and (D major) he (A major)
called me (E minor) (A major) a dumb shit
(E minor) And if I (A major) would (E minor) of let myself (G major) (E minor)
(G major) I (A major) would have cried (G major) in public
Oh no, I'm like give it (A major)
(E minor) back (A major) bro
But no, my ID was jacked by the
(E minor) Caucasian Deebo
Verse 6
Ha I'm laughing right now but (E minor) at the (G major) time it really was
not (D major) funny and (E minor) it's still not very funny (A major) fucker
Bitch (G major)
Verse 7
(E minor) (A major) why you
got to take my ID?
Why do (G major) I have to be 21 to drink (A major)
(E minor) (D major) a Long (E minor) Island Ice tea?
I hate (A major) bouncers with their bald (E minor) (A major) heads and ten foot tall legs
and shirts that they (G major) (B minor) outgrew (G major) when they were like ten
Your mother is dumb for (E minor) having you
You're a bouncer because you have a small
dick and as a kid (A major) everyone (E minor) laughed at you
You're too big and
you never seemed to listen
You look injected with the shit
they give to KFC chickens
I (B minor) don't (E minor) like ya, at all (G major)
(A major) I des (B minor) pise (D major) you
If I was tall (A major) I would (G major) (E minor) fight you
If (A major) I was a dog I would bite you (E minor)
(G major) Every single (E minor) day you (G major) make people cry
And your job (A major) is to go (G major) and ru
(A major) in (E minor) teenager's lives
Ok I'm going too (G major) far
bouncers aren't all (A major) bad
I'm sure they make great husbands
(G major) and really strong (A major) dads
But hopefully (G major) (E minor) you
(A major) learned a lesson from me
Never take an MC's fake ID
Yup, I said never take an MC's fake ID
Verse 8
You could (G major)
be buff and (A major) tough,
it don't matter to me
'Cause you're going to
get burned if you step to MCs
