About G-Slide (Tour Bus)

"G-Slide (Tour Bus)" is the second single from the rap artist Lil Mama's debut album, VYP: Voice of the Young People. The song is co-written and produced by Dr. Luke and features Kadar of Familiar Faces. The chorus to the song is set to the tune of "The Wheels on the Bus", a popular infant's rhyme. The song's style is similar to rapper Jibbs' "Chain Hang Low" as both choruses sample a nursery rhyme and the verses have a very rap-influenced beat. The song was featured in the film I'm in Love with a Stripper. The song only received a commercial release in New Zealand, in the U. S. the commercial single was cancelled. However, after the film How She Move was released in movie theaters, the song resurfaced for a short period of time garnering enough airplay to chart it on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles. Lil Wayne and Juelz Santana made an unofficial remix to this song called "Do My Thang". This song is also referenced in the Superspiz song "Make You Dance".

If my sister tour bus, ride through your town
You're gonna have a problem, tell 'em Lil Mama

Uh uh, no way, you can show me how [x3]
You can show me how
To G-slide

[Chorus:]
Lil Mama tour bus might ride through your town
Take her time, show you how
To do the G-slide, let me show you how
To G-slide
Let's Go!

[x2:]
Lil Mama get it poppin', put in work
G-slide for me (Hey)
G-slide with me (Hey)
G-slide with me (Hey)

When I bump up on the track it's like (Whoop)
There it is
From the block parties to house parties
I gets it in
I'm a bump my business
And that's exactly what I meant
Young beast from the east
So you know I puts it in
I'm that ghetto gorgeous gangsta girl
About to fly east line national
By the way that I bounce on the track (Ya Know)
You ain't never see a girl like this (Oh no)
My hopes seem fly high
We ri-ide until we di-ie
Run into dudes who be yappin' and always trying to get by
But I don't hear
It goes in one ear and out the other
Told him how to G-slide and he told his mother
Get get down big Mama
I can dig it, you got it
But when my block starts to G
A stampede startin'

[Chorus:]

Lil Mama get it poppin', put in work (I put in work) [x3]
Lil Mama get it poppin', put in work (Hey!)

New shirt (New shirt)
New kicks (New kicks)
New Pants
G-slide the new dance
No auto maw
We live in the new times
Lil Ma was tha artist for me
Is the new grime
More money, more money
More shine
She the princess of the city
I'm her son boy shine
Top the dime
Shorty got cake like (uh)
Duncan Hines, come on G-slide

They be callin me T in the hood
'Cause I bring the pain daddy
And when it's time to hold it down
I make it rain daddy
And then you got to feel me
'Cause I might make it flood
And if you G-slide slow
You better pick it up
G-slide with me
Be shy do it
See shorty lookin over from the side viewin'
I'm 'bout to pick him up
And show him how to do it
Slide right, slide left
Take ya time (do it)

[Chorus:]

Lil mama get it poppin' (yeah)
Stand on the streets so the people yell
Just lookin' at me like
No fair, I'm here, No fair
And my heart for none of you girls
I bet you girls live no losses
I switch verses like sauces
That prego sauce be poppin'
She so hot
When I bubble I'm down to pop
And if you tip and try to touch
You might end up with red spots
When it's hot, then it's hot
If it ain't, then it's not
No wait, you won't convert
This numero uno spot
'Cause I spot little creatures trying to turn beast
Go feast (feast)
They like the terriers, I'm red meat (meat)
And it's no way they can see me (No)
WHile I do it for tv (Yes)
In the hood
In the hood
Is probably where my bus be

[Chorus:]
