You wanna know why I, why'd I die for this West Coast turkey?
From Sacra to San Diego, I was put in work
California soldiers, we was born and born
It's like a lei in the bay, it's the heart of the dog
Pump the blood of an Aztec, mean mug, nothing plastic
What's up homie, fire up, let's get blasted
Flash on the pass homie, you ain't know
California, used to be Mexico
Now check the Spanish surnames on the cities we claim
Los Angeles and San Francisco, all the same
It's the coldest state of California, baby baby
Before you hate on us, we gotta warn ya
Mexicans, Cali's biggest minority
In the millennium, officially, we'll be the majority
Take a look around you, the world is a barrio
And everybody's low-riding like they on their way to a course
California, it's just like Mexico
And Phoenix, Arizona, that's right
It's just like Mexico
Denver, Colorado
It's just like Mexico
And Houston, Texas, why?
It's just like Mexico
It's just like Mexico
I took a trip to the city of bright lights, Las Vegas
Sitting near the * table, full of players
Hot rollers, Latin ballers and money makers
Supermodels with Fuliatos, that's how I break it
The title taker, from the streets to the skyscraper
From Frisco to Phoenix, they see, we chase paper
Every city I go, I see some homies dipping lolos
T-shirt khakis, mall-headed logos
I went to Utah, Salt Lake City
Did a show for Cinco de Mayo
And see so many Heiners looking pretty
I heard they got Chicanos in Chicago
Doing a thug dance
Ain't go-headed, Mano
Everybody balling clavo
From Houston, Texas
To Denver, Colorado
We low-riding in a Lexus on the way to a car show
The Southwest, it's just like Mexico
Utah, it's just like Mexico
And Nevada, boy, it's just like Mexico
You know Texas, it's just like Mexico
And Colorado, oh yeah, it's just like Mexico
Yeah, I ain't been around the world
But now everywhere I look, I see homies
So what's up?
Now we up in Dallas, with some stallions
Hanging on me at the bar like medallions
Every barrio I go, I fit right in
Cause everywhere that I look, I see Mexicans
Cara mia, tan ferraza like Pancho Villa
Mi casa es tu casa, drink shots of tequila
Puerto Ricans got New York, and the Cubans got Florida
But it's just like Mexico, when you listen to California
It's just like Mexico
It's just like Mexico
And Albuquerque, New Mexico, it's just like Mexico




Boy, it's just like Mexico
It's San Diego, oh yeah, it's just like Mexico
Los Angeles, it's just like Mexico
The Bay Area, just like Mexico
