Tens of thousands of Jordanians braved the rain to welcome home King Hussein after six months of cancer treatment in the United States.
The King's Boeing 737 touched down in Amman on Tuesday with Hussein, a veteran pilot, at the controls.
Officials say Hussein has fully recovered following chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota.
F-16s and Mirage jet fighters from the Jordanian air force escorted King Hussein's plane as it flew into Amman.
His family watched from the ground, clearly delighted the King was home and apparently fully recovered after six months of cancer treatment in the United States.
It has been Hussein's longest absence from the kingdom he has ruled for 46 years.
An experienced pilot, the King flew the Boeing 7-3-7 into Amman's Marka Military Base himself.
After leaving the aircraft, Hussein, wearing a dark blue suit and a red and white checkered kaffiyeh, dropped to his knees to kiss the ground and then bowed his head in prayer.
The sounds of celebratory gunfire could be heard throughout the capital.
Hussein then stood to attention for the Jordanian national anthem before attending a reception at the airport.
Members of the royal family and about one-thousand government officials, Parliament members, diplomats and other dignitaries were there to greet the 63-year-old monarch.
The guests included Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, Yemen President Ali Abdullah Saleh and the emir of Qatar, Sheik Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani.
After the reception, King Hussein talked of a policy review which he had hinted at in a televised speech at the weekend.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"My plan? To rest a little bit maybe now. But no, there is a lot to be done which is nothing that means you work for a certain period and then you forget about it. It is a continuous struggle with me. It has been 40 plus years now - 47 years or so. So every now and then we have to review. We have to see what needs to be done to consolidate the country, to make people feel more comfortable, more confident in the future."
SUPER CAPTION: King Hussein of Jordan
Hussein and his wife, Queen Noor, were then driven in a royal motorcade through the streets of the capital to greet Jordanians, who jammed the 25-mile (40 kilometre) route.
Security was tight in the narrow, bustling streets of downtown Amman.
Army and police helicopters, decorated with Jordanian flags and
welcome banners, buzzed the skies.
Tens of thousands of people lined Amman's streets, cheering, chanting, waving banners, dancing and beating drums.
Officials had earlier said they expected one (m) million people to greet Hussein, but the turnout was lower, possibly due to the rainy weather.
But despite that, Jordanians are clearly pleased to have their king home.

King Hussein of Jordan is flying to Israel, Sunday, to meet the families whose children were shot dead by a Jordanian soldier, during a school trip on the border between the two countries.
Hussein is visiting to offer his condolences in person, after seven schoolchildren died in the attack, which left six others injured.
And the King is expected to use the opportunity to meet with Israeli leaders to try and dissuade them from their plans to build Jewish homes in Arab east Jerusalem.
Final preparations were underway in Jerusalem for the visit of King Hussein of Jordan, Sunday.
The Jordanian flag fluttered alongside the Israeli one outside the Prime Minister's office in Jerusalem.
A symbol of togetherness perhaps, despite recent criticism by King Hussein over the Israeli government's plan to build thousands of Jewish homes in Arab East Jerusalem.
Following the shocking murders of seven schoolchildren, by a Jordanian soldier, last week, the King requested permission to visit the bereaved families and offer his condolences.
King Hussein will also visit the two girls recovering from the attack at Jerusalem's Hadassah Hospital.
The visit is likely to be used as an opportunity for the King to talk to Israeli leaders and he is expected to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli President Ezer Weizman,
Har Homa to the Jews or Jabal Abu Ghneim to the Palestinians is one of the obstacles in the path to peace.
This part of east Jerusalem is where the Palestinians hope to base their capital and the Israeli governments plans to build here has added to the problems of the peace talks.
Israel captured east Jerusalem from Jordan in the 1967 Mideast War and later annexed it.
And the government is determined the city will remain united under Israeli sovereignty.
Distrust between the two sides was evident after the Israeli Minister for Justice Tsahi Hanegbi warned if Arafat condoned violence he would find himself in exile once again.
And Palestinians have reacted to this strongly.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I don't want to react like their way because we have seen all those polite people and we don't use those kind of expressions, but in one (word unclear), this is a matter of rudeness and not accepted by anybody, and we know that Mr Tsahi he is born, his family, his mother you remember were one of those fanatics and extremists in Israel and she feed him through her milk while he is a child the bitterness and hateness for Palestinians."
SUPER CAPTION: Freih Abu Medein, Minister of Justice, for the Palestinian Authority
In Beit Shemesh, outside Jerusalem, the Malka family and their relatives were still in mourning, trying to come to terms with the loss of Adi who was one of the schoolgirls who was shot.
But they said they appreciated King Hussein's visit.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I think this is very kind, its a good kind, I mean it's kind to help the mother."
SUPER CAPTION: Sara Malka
This is the only the King's second visit to Israeli-controlled Jerusalem. The first was for Yitzhak Rabin's funeral in November 1995.

English/Nat
Confirming days of reports and rumours, Jordan has announced that King Hussein's oldest son, Abdullah, will replace the king's brother, Hassan, as future successor to the throne.
A one-paragraph royal decree, reported by state television, named Abdullah as crown prince.
In a harsh letter to Hassan, Hussein accused aides to the former crown prince of attempting to oust Hussein's loyalists from the military during the monarch's six-month absence for cancer treatment.
For crown prince Hassan - his brother's designated successor since 1965 - the Jordanian throne is now but a dream.
After days of speculation came official confirmation that King Hussein's replacement would not be his brother but his oldest son Abdullah.
Abdullah is an army major general - in charge of a special force that oversees the security of the royal
family.
His political views are not known, but he is Western educated, having attended military schools in England and the United States.
Experts say Abdullah, although relatively inexperienced, will have time to learn how to rule.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"In the short term nothing will change because his majesty will still be around, supervising and actually running the show himself. And that would be the period when the crown prince will learn the trade of being a king as such."
SUPER CAPTION: Labib Kamhawi, human rights activist
The change in succession to the Hashimite throne seems to have sprung from a major disagreement between Hussein and Hassan.
The king is believed to have accused aides to the former crown prince of attempting to oust his own loyalists from the military during the six-month absence he's taken for cancer treatment.
It's thought Hussein replaced his brother to ensure that his own sons, and not Hassan's, would be Jordan's future kings - which might not have happened if Hassan had taken the throne.
But there is no doubt that Abdullah faces quite a challenge, replacing as he will a man with over 30 years' preparation for the job.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"The new crown prince lacks the experience Prince Hassan had over the years. He served through the years, he (Abdullah) may have some experience in the armed forces, but he still has a lot to learn."
SUPER CAPTION: Labib Kamhawi, human rights activist
Abdullah is Hussein's son from his second marriage to Britain's Toni Gardiner, who adopted the name Mona when she converted to Islam upon her marriage to Hussein in 1960.
Some analysts had said Abdullah should be out of the running, since his mother is not Arab.
And until recently King Hussein had appeared to be preparing his son Hamza for the throne.
He is the 18-year-old son of Hussein and his fourth wife, the American-Lebanese Queen Noor.
Alone of his five sons, Hamza was at Hussein's bedside during his father's battle with cancer, cementing a special bond, confidants of the monarch said.
But it is thought that in the end, the monarch judged it too risky to name an untested teenager as his heir.
Hussein finally returned to Jordan last week after months of treatment for non-Hodgkins lymphoma.
His return eased widespread public concern over the implications of the king's poor health on the future of Jordan, where 90 percent of the population has been born since Hussein took the throne 45 years ago.
The monarch inherited the throne from his own father, Talal, in 1952 at the age of 17.
The constitution stipulates that his successor should be his eldest son.
The king explained recently that he had only appointed Hassan as crown prince 34 years ago because his sons were very young.
And Abdullah's reinstatement revives the Hashimite tradition of passing the throne to the eldest son.

Hussein bin Talal (Arabic: حسين بن طلال, Ḥusayn bin Ṭalāl; 14 November 1935 – 7 February 1999) was King of Jordan from the abdication of his father, King Talal, in 1952, until his death. Hussein's rule extended through the Cold War and four decades of Arab-Israeli conflict. He recognized Israel in 1994, becoming the second Arab head of state to do so.
Hussein claimed to be a descendant of the Islamic prophet Muhammad through his relations with the ancient Hashemite family.
Hussein was born in Amman on 14 November 1935 to Talal bin Abdullah and Princess Zein al-Sharaf bint Jamil. After completing his elementary education in Amman, he was educated at Victoria College in Alexandria. He proceeded to Harrow School in England, where he befriended his cousin Faisal II of Iraq. He pursued further study at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst.
On 20 July 1951, Prince Hussein traveled to Jerusalem to perform Friday prayers at the Al-Aqsa Mosque with his grandfather, King Abdullah I, where an assassin opened fire on Abdullah and his grandson. Abdullah was killed, but the 15-year-old Hussein survived the assassination attempt, and according to the Jordanian government, pursued the gunman. The Jordanian government claims that the gunman turned his weapon on the young prince, who was saved when the bullet was deflected by a medal on his uniform which had been given to him by his grandfather.

English/Nat King Hussein of Jordan is flying to Israel, Sunday, to meet the families whose children were shot dead by a Jordanian soldier, during a school trip on the border between the two countries. Hussein is visiting to offer his condolences in person, after seven schoolchildren died in the attack, which left six others injured. And the King is expected to use the opportunity to meet with Israeli leaders to try and dissuade them from their plans to build Jewish homes in Arab east Jerusalem. Final preparations were underway in Jerusalem for the visit of King Hussein of Jordan, Sunday. The Jordanian flag fluttered alongside the Israeli one outside the Prime Minister's office in Jerusalem. A symbol of togetherness perhaps, despite recent criticism by King Hussein over the Israeli government's plan to build thousands of Jewish homes in Arab East Jerusalem. Following the shocking murders of seven schoolchildren, by a Jordanian soldier, last week, the King requested permission to visit the bereaved families and offer his condolences. King Hussein will also visit the two girls recovering from the attack at Jerusalem's Hadassah Hospital. The visit is likely to be used as an opportunity for the King to talk to Israeli leaders and he is expected to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli President Ezer Weizman, Har Homa to the Jews or Jabal Abu Ghneim to the Palestinians is one of the obstacles in the path to peace. This part of east Jerusalem is where the Palestinians hope to base their capital and the Israeli governments plans to build here has added to the problems of the peace talks. Israel captured east Jerusalem from Jordan in the 1967 Mideast War and later annexed it. And the government is determined the city will remain united under Israeli sovereignty. Distrust between the two sides was evident after the Israeli Minister for Justice Tsahi Hanegbi warned if Arafat condoned violence he would find himself in exile once again. And Palestinians have reacted to this strongly. SOUNDBITE: (English) "I don't want to react like their way because we have seen all those polite people and we don't use those kind of expressions, but in one (word unclear), this is a matter of rudeness and not accepted by anybody, and we know that Mr Tsahi he is born, his family, his mother you remember were one of those fanatics and extremists in Israel and she feed him through her milk while he is a child the bitterness and hateness for Palestinians." SUPER CAPTION: Freih Abu Medein, Minister of Justice, for the Palestinian Authority In Beit Shemesh, outside Jerusalem, the Malka family and their relatives were still in mourning, trying to come to terms with the loss of Adi who was one of the schoolgirls who was shot. But they said they appreciated King Hussein's visit. SOUNDBITE: (English) "I think this is very kind, its a good kind, I mean it's kind to help the mother." SUPER CAPTION: Sara Malka This is the only the King's second visit to Israeli-controlled Jerusalem. The first was for Yitzhak Rabin's funeral in November 1995.

2:57JORDAN: KING HUSSEIN'S SON ABDULLAH FUTURE HEIR TO THRONE
JORDAN: KING HUSSEIN'S SON ABDULLAH FUTURE HEIR TO THRONEJORDAN: KING HUSSEIN'S SON ABDULLAH FUTURE HEIR TO THRONE
English/Nat Confirming days of reports and rumours, Jordan has announced that King Hussein's oldest son, Abdullah, will replace the king's brother, Hassan, as future successor to the throne. A one-paragraph royal decree, reported by state television, named Abdullah as crown prince. In a harsh letter to Hassan, Hussein accused aides to the former crown prince of attempting to oust Hussein's loyalists from the military during the monarch's six-month absence for cancer treatment. For crown prince Hassan - his brother's designated successor since 1965 - the Jordanian throne is now but a dream. After days of speculation came official confirmation that King Hussein's replacement would not be his brother but his oldest son Abdullah. Abdullah is an army major general - in charge of a special force that oversees the security of the royal family. His political views are not known, but he is Western educated, having attended military schools in England and the United States. Experts say Abdullah, although relatively inexperienced, will have time to learn how to rule. SOUNDBITE: (English) "In the short term nothing will change because his majesty will still be around, supervising and actually running the show himself. And that would be the period when the crown prince will learn the trade of being a king as such." SUPER CAPTION: Labib Kamhawi, human rights activist The change in succession to the Hashimite throne seems to have sprung from a major disagreement between Hussein and Hassan. The king is believed to have accused aides to the former crown prince of attempting to oust his own loyalists from the military during the six-month absence he's taken for cancer treatment. It's thought Hussein replaced his brother to ensure that his own sons, and not Hassan's, would be Jordan's future kings - which might not have happened if Hassan had taken the throne. But there is no doubt that Abdullah faces quite a challenge, replacing as he will a man with over 30 years' preparation for the job. SOUNDBITE: (English) "The new crown prince lacks the experience Prince Hassan had over the years. He served through the years, he (Abdullah) may have some experience in the armed forces, but he still has a lot to learn." SUPER CAPTION: Labib Kamhawi, human rights activist Abdullah is Hussein's son from his second marriage to Britain's Toni Gardiner, who adopted the name Mona when she converted to Islam upon her marriage to Hussein in 1960. Some analysts had said Abdullah should be out of the running, since his mother is not Arab. And until recently King Hussein had appeared to be preparing his son Hamza for the throne. He is the 18-year-old son of Hussein and his fourth wife, the American-Lebanese Queen Noor. Alone of his five sons, Hamza was at Hussein's bedside during his father's battle with cancer, cementing a special bond, confidants of the monarch said. But it is thought that in the end, the monarch judged it too risky to name an untested teenager as his heir. Hussein finally returned to Jordan last week after months of treatment for non-Hodgkins lymphoma. His return eased widespread public concern over the implications of the king's poor health on the future of Jordan, where 90 percent of the population has been born since Hussein took the throne 45 years ago. The monarch inherited the throne from his own father, Talal, in 1952 at the age of 17. The constitution stipulates that his successor should be his eldest son. The king explained recently that he had only appointed Hassan as crown prince 34 years ago because his sons were very young. And Abdullah's reinstatement revives the Hashimite tradition of passing the throne to the eldest son.

Famous quotes by King Hussein:
"a force for peace"
"My concern is not for me, ... but for Jordan, its stability, its progress, its democracy (and) its people."
"a lot to be done."
"I am feeling fine,"
"It was so cold, and I did not have adequate clothing so my clothes turned out to be something like a sponge, and it was pretty cold,"
"As long as I live, I'll be proud to have known him,"
"At seventeen, I knew the end of a dream, ... I would never be a schoolboy again."
"God is the one who saved me. He who believes in God, in His cause and His truth is capable of standing up to the greatest power."
"We should face reality and our past mistakes in an honest, adult way. Boasting of glory does not make glory, and singing in the dark does not dispel fear."
"It is my firm belief that I have a link with the past and a responsibility to the future. I cannot give up. I cannot despair. There's a whole future, generations to come. I have to keep trying."
"At seventeen, I knew the end of a dream... I would never be a schoolboy again."
"I, not for the first time, would like to say that I never took a pro-Iraq position during the Gulf War."
"After all, I think Jerusalem is part of the, of the world's heritage."
"I am pro-peace."
"Jordan has a very important part in any Arab-Israeli peace process."
"Sometimes, leaders' failures can cost these young people's lives."
"I'm proud of what I've done in Jordan, but the region itself is sitting on a time bomb."

English/Nat
Tens of thousands of Jordanians braved the rain to welcome home King Hussein after six months of cancer treatment in the United States.
The King's Boeing 737 touched down in Amman on Tuesday with Hussein, a veteran pilot, at the controls.
Officials say Hussein has fully recovered following chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota.
F-16s and Mirage jet fighters from the Jordanian air force escorted King Hussein's plane as it flew into Amman.
His family watched from the ground, clearly delighted the King was home and apparently fully recovered after six months of cancer treatment in the United States.
It has been Hussein's longest absence from the kingdom he has ruled for 46 years.
An experienced pilot, the King flew the Boeing 7-3-7 into Amman's Marka Military Base himself.
After leaving the aircraft, Hussein, wearing a dark blue suit and a red and white checkered kaffiyeh, dropped to his knees to kiss the ground and then bowed his head in prayer.
The sounds of celebratory gunfire could be heard throughout the capital.
Hussein then stood to attention for the Jordanian national anthem before attending a reception at the airport.
Members of the royal family and about one-thousand government officials, Parliament members, diplomats and other dignitaries were there to greet the 63-year-old monarch.
The guests included Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, Yemen President Ali Abdullah Saleh and the emir of Qatar, Sheik Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani.
After the reception, King Hussein talked of a policy review which he had hinted at in a televised speech at the weekend.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"My plan? To rest a little bit maybe now. But no, there is a lot to be done which is nothing that means you work for a certain period and then you forget about it. It is a continuous struggle with me. It has been 40 plus years now - 47 years or so. So every now and then we have to review. We have to see what needs to be done to consolidate the country, to make people feel more comfortable, more confident in the future."
SUPER CAPTION: King Hussein of Jordan
Hussein and his wife, Queen Noor, were then driven in a royal motorcade through the streets of the capital to greet Jordanians, who jammed the 25-mile (40 kilometre) route.
Security was tight in the narrow, bustling streets of downtown Amman.
Army and police helicopters, decorated with Jordanian flags and
welcome banners, buzzed the skies.
Tens of thousands of people lined Amman's streets, cheering, chanting, waving banners, dancing and beating drums.
Officials had earlier said they expected one (m) million people to greet Hussein, but the turnout was lower, possibly due to the rainy weather.
But despite that, Jordanians are clearly pleased to have their king home.

ISRAEL: JORDAN'S KING HUSSEIN TO VISIT JERUSALEM

English/Nat
King Hussein of Jordan is flying to Israel, Sunday, to meet the families whose children were shot dead by a Jordanian soldier, during a school trip on the border between the two countries.
Hussein is visiting to offer his condolences in person, after seven schoolchildren died in the attack, which left six others injured.
And the King is expected to use the opportunity to meet with Israeli leaders to try and dissuade them from their plans to build Jewish homes in Arab east Jerusalem.
Final preparations were underway in Jerusalem for the visit of King Hussein of Jordan, Sunday.
The Jordanian flag fluttered alongside the Israeli one outside the Prime Minister's office in Jerusalem.
A symbol of togetherness perhaps, despite recent criticism by King Hussein over the Israeli government's plan to build thousands of Jewish homes in Arab East Jerusalem.
Following the shocking murders of seven schoolchildren, by a Jordanian soldier, last week, the King requested permission to visit the bereaved families and offer his condolences.
King Hussein will also visit the two girls recovering from the attack at Jerusalem's Hadassah Hospital.
The visit is likely to be used as an opportunity for the King to talk to Israeli leaders and he is expected to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli President Ezer Weizman,
Har Homa to the Jews or Jabal Abu Ghneim to the Palestinians is one of the obstacles in the path to peace.
This part of east Jerusalem is where the Palestinians hope to base their capital and the Israeli governments plans to build here has added to the problems of the peace talks.
Israel captured east Jerusalem from Jordan in the 1967 Mideast War and later annexed it.
And the government is determined the city will remain united under Israeli sovereignty.
Distrust between the two sides was evident after the Israeli Minister for Justice Tsahi Hanegbi warned if Arafat condoned violence he would find himself in exile once again.
And Palestinians have reacted to this strongly.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I don't want to react like their way because we have seen all those polite people and we don't use those kind of expressions, but in one (word unclear), this is a matter of rudeness and not accepted by anybody, and we know that Mr Tsahi he is born, his family, his mother you remember were one of those fanatics and extremists in Israel and she feed him through her milk while he is a child the bitterness and hateness for Palestinians."
SUPER CAPTION: Freih Abu Medein, Minister of Justice, for the Palestinian Authority
In Beit Shemesh, outside Jerusalem, the Malka family and their relatives were still in mourning, trying to come to terms with the loss of Adi who was one of the schoolgirls who was shot.
But they said they appreciated King Hussein's visit.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"I think this is very kind, its a good kind, I mean it's kind to help the mother."
SUPER CAPTION: Sara Malka
This is the only the King's second visit to Israeli-controlled Jerusalem. The first was for Yitzhak Rabin's funeral in November 1995.

English/Nat
Confirming days of reports and rumours, Jordan has announced that King Hussein's oldest son, Abdullah, will replace the king's brother, Hassan, as future successor to the throne.
A one-paragraph royal decree, reported by state television, named Abdullah as crown prince.
In a harsh letter to Hassan, Hussein accused aides to the former crown prince of attempting to oust Hussein's loyalists from the military during the monarch's six-month absence for cancer treatment.
For crown prince Hassan - his brother's designated successor since 1965 - the Jordanian throne is now but a dream.
After days of speculation came official confirmation that King Hussein's replacement would not be his brother but his oldest son Abdullah.
Abdullah is an army major general - in charge of a special force that oversees the security of the royal
family.
His political views are not known, but he is Western educated, having attended military schools in England and the United States.
Experts say Abdullah, although relatively inexperienced, will have time to learn how to rule.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"In the short term nothing will change because his majesty will still be around, supervising and actually running the show himself. And that would be the period when the crown prince will learn the trade of being a king as such."
SUPER CAPTION: Labib Kamhawi, human rights activist
The change in succession to the Hashimite throne seems to have sprung from a major disagreement between Hussein and Hassan.
The king is believed to have accused aides to the former crown prince of attempting to oust his own loyalists from the military during the six-month absence he's taken for cancer treatment.
It's thought Hussein replaced his brother to ensure that his own sons, and not Hassan's, would be Jordan's future kings - which might not have happened if Hassan had taken the throne.
But there is no doubt that Abdullah faces quite a challenge, replacing as he will a man with over 30 years' preparation for the job.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"The new crown prince lacks the experience Prince Hassan had over the years. He served through the years, he (Abdullah) may have some experience in the armed forces, but he still has a lot to learn."
SUPER CAPTION: Labib Kamhawi, human rights activist
Abdullah is Hussein's son from his second marriage to Britain's Toni Gardiner, who adopted the name Mona when she converted to Islam upon her marriage to Hussein in 1960.
Some analysts had said Abdullah should be out of the running, since his mother is not Arab.
And until recently King Hussein had appeared to be preparing his son Hamza for the throne.
He is the 18-year-old son of Hussein and his fourth wife, the American-Lebanese Queen Noor.
Alone of his five sons, Hamza was at Hussein's bedside during his father's battle with cancer, cementing a special bond, confidants of the monarch said.
But it is thought that in the end, the monarch judged it too risky to name an untested teenager as his heir.
Hussein finally returned to Jordan last week after months of treatment for non-Hodgkins lymphoma.
His return eased widespread public concern over the implications of the king's poor health on the future of Jordan, where 90 percent of the population has been born since Hussein took the throne 45 years ago.
The monarch inherited the throne from his own father, Talal, in 1952 at the age of 17.
The constitution stipulates that his successor should be his eldest son.
The king explained recently that he had only appointed Hassan as crown prince 34 years ago because his sons were very young.
And Abdullah's reinstatement revives the Hashimite tradition of passing the throne to the eldest son.

Suck No Dick
Check it out
This track is goin out to anybody who think they all that
When you ain't shit
[VERSE 1]
Hey yo, what's up with your man, I think he needs to beat it
I can't stand a muthafucka who act conceited
When I flip, niggas be thinkin that I'm on a mission
I know he sucked a lotta dick to get in his position
So I'm supposed to be impressed with his lifestyle?
That's why the Undercover Lover got your wife now
While you be fuckin around with someone outta town
I got your girl up in the telly on her belly down
Doggy style, hot water couldn't get me off
Whenever he gives her money, honey hits me off
I get the cash, I make her hit the stash
When I'm finished hittin that ass I break out like a rash
So there's no need for me to jeal' your clientele
Why sweat the next man because the lives well?
I know you're gettin paid and supposed to have it made
But your girl's gettin laid, so who's gettin played?
The way I figure I guess my dick is bigger
And even with loot you'se a crab-ass nigga
Picture me jockin, cause that'll be a flick
See, niggas in the Bronx don't suck no dick
I said New York is thick
(We suck no dick)
Yo, I said New York is thick
(We suck no dick)
Yo, I said New York is thick
(We suck no dick)
(Aight)
My posse from the Bronx is thick
[VERSE 2]
Now check it, every 3 tenths of a second
Wack new jacks be comin out with they records
Don't let the record be a smash or a hit
Cause then these fake rappers start thinkin they the shit
Now they don't write, can't fight, never was hardcore
Yo, what's the name of that movie? (Uh - _CB4_)
Yup, and I be ready to serve em up
Cause they got juice and I got a empty cup
And now all the other rappers wanna sweat em
Puttin em in they videos and makin records with em
Used to call my house like 8 days a week
But now I see em in the club, the muthafucka can't speak
Your style was sloppy, so they had to fine-tune it
Niggas get souped up when they sell a million units
Catch a little tour, you wanna run for president
Before you started rhymin you was always in your residence
Like a little bitch, you switched when you signed
Want me to sweat yours, cause you was sweatin mine
Don't be suprised when you get your ass flipped
Yo, Sun don't be suckin no dick
New York is thick
(We suck no dick)
Yo, I said New York is thick
(We suck no dick)
You know I said New York is thick
(We suck no dick)
(Aight)
My posse from the Bronx is thick
[VERSE 3]
But yo, check it
This is from your peoples on the East Coast
Ice Cube, you on the tube playin all high post
Bt wuhen you was in some beef, I was there to help
Then when I needed help, I had to help my damn self
This is for the record, yo, but off the books
I hit you with my demo, when you crooked my hook
Yo, that's wicked, I kicked it and pursued Uptown
When the 'boys in the hood' 'trespass', we beat em down
Check your neck while I flex some New York slang
Niggas don't really be true to the game
But what's so hard about puttin me on
Yo, 'today was a good day' for O'Shea, and not Sun Born
Now I know how you're livin, punk
On the East Coast you got beef in the Bronx
So when you come to New York, you best to roll thick
And don't be tryina suck Zulu Nation dick
Yo, half the rappers in New York went soft
Sweatin niggas from Cali is how New York fell off
Get your best MC, I dust him off right quick
Cause real niggas in the Bronx don't suck no dick
I said New York is thick
(We suck no dick)
Yo, I said New York is thick
(We suck no dick)
You know I said New York is tick
(We suck no dick)
(Aight)
Know I said New York is thick
East Coast got dissed
All my peoples on the West Coast, all peace and love, baby
But we gots to rock the house
Suckin no dick, money
Raw for '94
The Boogie Bang
Aight
Strictly Ghetto
Cold Chillin'
