Clue, Clue... Clue... (Clue...) Clue, Clue, Clue, Clue... Clue... (Clue...) Clue, Clue... Clue... (Clue...) Clue, Clue, Clue, Cluuue! New OutKast! For my Dirty South niggas! [Verse 1: Big Boi] Out of the basement, out of The Dungeon Look at these Georgia boys, they runnin' and rippin' And sippin' and pimpin' and clippin' and trimmin' up all the women I'm swimming But it's odd to me, your words are kind of drippin', I'm trippin'... Your flow is non-existent, bitch, it's missin' Like Eric Robert Rudolf, or Puss In Boots with his boots off "Howdy doo, boss" Check the southern slang, boy – I got a true drawl From East Point to New York, it's OutKast and Clue, y'all Howdy doo, y'all (Howdy doo, y'all!
