(Verse)
  C                    F
I like big butts and I cannot lie
    C              F
You other brothers can?t deny
       Dm
When a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
       G
And a round thing in your face
        C                    F
You get sprung and you wanna pull up tough
    C           F
You notice that butt was stuffed
Dm
Deep in the jeans she?s wearing
    G
I?m hooked and I can?t stop staring
Em 
Oh babe, I wanna get wit?cha
    Am
And take your pretty picture
   F
My homeboys tried to warn me
         G
But that butt you got makes me so horny
C           F
Ooh, Rumple-smooth-skin
C                     F
You say you wanna get in my Benz?
      Dm
Well, use me, use me
          G
Cause you ain?t that average groupie
C              F
I?ve seen them dancing
C             F
The hell with romancing
Dm
Cause she?s sweat, wet,
       G
Got it going like a turbo Vette

Em
I?m tired of magazines
       Am
Saying flat butts are the thing
         F
Take the average black man and ask him that
G
She gotta pack much back

C           C/B (x22010)
So, fellas, fellas
Am                          Am/G (302010)
Has your girlfriend got the butt?
F                     F/E  (xx2211)
Tell her to shake it, shake it
D7                       G Gsus4 (320013)
Shake that healthy butt
         Am Em F G
Baby got back

              Am Em F G 
Baby got back (LA face with the Oakland booty)
              Am Em F G
Baby got back (LA face with the Oakland booty)
              C F C F
Baby got back

C           F
I like them round and big
C                F
And when I?m throwing a gig
Dm                                           G
I just can?t help myself, I?m acting like an animal

Now here?s my scandal
C          F
I wanna get you home
    C              F
And wo, double-up, wo-oo-wo
Dm 
I ain?t talking bout Playboy
      G
Cause silicone parts are made for toys

Em
I want em real thick and juicy
   Am
So find that juicy double
Dm
Jonnie C?s in trouble
G
Begging for a piece of that bubble

C                 F
So I?m looking at rock videos
C                  F
Knock-kneed bimbos walking like hoes
Dm
You can have them bimbos
G7
I?ll keep my women like Flo Jo
C                         F                  C
A word to the thick soul sistas, I wanna get with ya
        F
I won?t cuss or hit ya
Dm
But I gotta be straight when I say I wanna? (pause)
G
Til the break of dawn

Em
Baby got it going on
Am
A lot of simps won?t like this song
Dm
Cause them punks like to hit it and quit it
G
And I?d rather stay and play

Fmaj7
Cause I?m long, and I?m strong
G
And I?m down to get the friction on

C           C/B (x22010)
So, ladies, ladies
Am                          Am/G (302010)
If you wanna role in my Mercedes
F                     F/E  (xx2211)
Then turn around and stick it out
D7                       G Gsus4
Even white boys got to shout

              Am Em F G 
Baby got back (LA face with the Oakland booty)
              Am Em F G 
Baby got back (LA face with the Oakland booty)
              Am Em F G 
Baby got back (LA face with the Oakland booty)
              C F C
Baby got back
