Intro:
C F G (x4)
Verse 1:
Too [C]hot; this town is too [G]hot, (too hot, too hot),
Now they're callin' for their guns,
about to spoil the rude boys funs,
But rude boys never give up their guns;
It's too [C]hot, (too hot, too hot),
No man, can tell them what to [G]do, (too hot, too hot),
Pound for pound, they say; they're [C]ruder than you, (too hot, too hot).
Verse 2:
They are boss and no back [G]down, you might have a couple you like,
Choose your burial site, take insurance, make up your will,
Come out and [C]tell them, (fight them, fight them).
Solo:
C, G, C
Verse 3:
The [C]soldiers, came back to you.
With-[G]out them the police force are afraid;
They can't even [C]touch them, (too hot, too hot).
They say; "you think you're bad? Why don't you [G]come out yourself?"
These boys are calling for a fight, fighting tonight, they don't lie;
It's too [C]hot, (too hot, too hot), too hot, too hot.
Coda:
(Increase Tempo):
Too hot, [G]too hot, too hot, too hot,
Too hot, too [C]hot, too hot!
