City Spud - 2 Sides

〈intro: city spud〉
Tha biz-tha bizness
Look, hey

〈chorus: nelly〉
There's two sides to every story
And your girls, they don't really know me
See, i'd do anything for my shawty
'cause she do anything for me
There's two sides to every story
And your girls, they don't really know me
See, i'd do anything for my shawty
'cause you're the only one for me

〈verse 1: city spud〉
You wanna know why you trip off what your girls say
See, that's the reason they alone in the first place
Since i've been with you, i been real since the first date
And every time, you gone, i'm alone in the worst way
And i don't want a bunch of stones for your birthday
And i don't wanna make you feel at home like your birthplace
When in bed, i make it rumble like an earthquake
When you came, you learn my name like a first date
And like the first date and in the freezer
When you hungry and you thirsty, so why you bugging now?
I just wanna be the one to give you
Everything you think and dream about
Let you dream about, i'ma paint a perfect picture
Shawty, let you dream about it
So let 'em talk about it, karma is a motherfucker
Tell your friends to think about it
〈chorus: nelly〉
There's two sides to every story
And your girls, they don't really know me
See, i'd do anything for my shawty
'cause she do anything for me
There's two sides to every story
And your girls, they don't really know me
See, i'd do anything for my shawty
'cause you're the only one for me

〈verse 2: city spud〉
Yo, i've been thinking 'bout everything you wanna see
Every place you wanna go, everything you wanna know
Shawty, i can tell you 'bout it; just give me a minute, mama
I'ma give you happiness if you forget about the drama
So go on and hear me, oh, baby, let me turn you out
Let me lick you up and down, turn your frown to a smile
You ain't had this shit before, you don't like it, get on the floor
From the bed to the stairs around like a merry-go
Like a merry-go, like merry-go, like a merry-go
From the bed to the stairs around like a merry-go

〈chorus: nelly〉
There's two sides to every story
And your girls, they don't really know me
See, i'd do anything for my shawty
'cause she do anything for me
There's two sides to every story
And your girls, they don't really know me
See, i'd do anything for my shawty
'cause you're the only one for me
〈verse 3: chingy〉
Didn't i put that benz on them five-star rims?
Didn't i open that account when you needed ends?
I'm messing with her and her, oh, you believe your friends
I can have any girl i want, so believe 'em then
But don't forget who put you in that louis bag and heels
And had you at them cardinals games sitting on the field
Ma, i don't do the faking, so i'ma keep it real
Tell your gossip and ass girls to stay up out your grill
And don't i lay that pipe right like a pull-up do
And the group satisfy me, i just want some of you
You know if i bust, baby girl, you coming too
Call an end zone, she the only one i'm running through

〈chorus: nelly〉
There's two sides to every story
And your girls, they don't really know me
See, i'd do anything for my shawty
'cause she do anything for me
There's two sides to every story
And your girls, they don't really know me
See, i'd do anything for my shawty
'cause you're the only one for me

City Spud is a part of the St. Lunatics, a group that included Nelly.

Per The Riverfront Times, he was often mistaken for Nelly’s brother, and his name was explained by Ali (another member of the St. Lunatics) as follows:

We called him City Spud for the fact that he was -- it was like calling a fat person Tiny. He was from the county. He was always from the county, real passive, real nice, real neat, just a really cool guy. He was so county that we called him City.
