    I have the lyrics memorized. When I Google them closest match is Snoop Dogg's Gin and Juice. And they're part of a song by Tha Playah called "Call my Name" but that's too modern.

    We think it's Dr. Dre. We think it's The World Class Wreckin' Cru. But we aren't positive.

    I'll spoiler how we have it memorized.

    I was rollin' down the street had my mind at ease
    I had the top pulled back so I could feel the breeze
    Somebody called my name, I looked around
    It was a freak on a bus stop flaggin' me down
    I wanted to go back and investigate
    So I made a quick U at 108
    I got back to the stop and what did I see?
    This chick I tried to get back in '83
    She had a grin. I had a frown. She said you goin' downtown?
    I said Too late, gotta date, catch you on the rebound.
    She said Wait a minute Dre can I give you a call?
    I said you better stop drinkin' that ak-o-hol
    Cuz when I met you before you wouldn't give me no play
    And now you wanna know if I'm goin' your way?
    So let's pretend I'm Italian and I'll just say Ciao
    Cuz you didn't want me then and I don't want you now.

    Like I said, it's NOT Tha Playah. He was born in 82 so no way he wrote a song about getting a chick in 83. His song has these lyrics but he got them from somewhere else.

    I was just spontaneously wondering how many people here have noticed that FedEx
    trucks have a 'forward progress' arrow hidden in the 'negative space' between the
    second 'e' and the 'x' in their logo? :ai:

    I'm not finding those lyrics in that song?

    Thank you, by the way, for helping! I feel like I'm getting closer.

    This is honestly the first time in my life I have heard (read) that some people find Adam Sandler hot.

    Check the links I dropped. One of them was from a "which album sampled what" and tha playah definitely sampled that track, so maybe y'all are just remembering a combination?
