[G] [Fm] My daddy had a Cadillac, my uncle drove a Ford,
One was Satan's angel and one worked for the Lord.
They had some hard-earned wisdom, they both became my teachers,
[Bb] I was a young disciple of [Fm] pimps and [Bb] preachers.
[Eb]
[Bb] The school of life was open, each day I went to class,
[Eb] When I didn't pay attention, [Bb] they kicked me in the ass.
They were turning out young bitches and converting non-believers,
I [Eb] was learning from the masters, [Bb] pimps and [Eb] preachers.
One took me through the darkness, [Bb] one led me to life,
[F] One showed me how to love, [Bb] one taught me how to fight.
[Eb] I guess you could say I am [Bb] an [Db] [Eb] overachiever,
[Ab] [Eb] And [Bb] I owe a debt of [F] gratitude to [Bb] pimps and preachers.
[Eb]
[Bb] They kept me under [Bbm] their wings, for when I passed the test,
They [Eb] gave me a peace-guide suit [Bb] and pushed me from the desk.
Now I'm standing on a [Bb] carpet, recruiting hungry seekers,
[Eb] I'm starting a new religion, I [Bb] call it pimps and preachers.
[Eb] One took me through the darkness, [Bb] one led me to life,
[F] One showed me how to love, [Bb] one taught me how to fight.
[Eb] I guess you could say I [Bb] am [Db] an [Eb] overachiever,
[Ab] [Eb] [Bb] And I owe a debt of [F] gratitude to pimps [Eb] and preachers.

Stand there and do nothing, but [Ab] if you want to go far,
Don't try to [Eb] please everybody, be [Bb] proud of who you are.
Get out there in the game, don't sit up in [Abm] the [Bb] bleachers,
[Eb] That is the [Bb] philosophy of pimps and preachers.
[Eb] One took me through the darkness, [Bb] one led me to life,
[F] One showed me how to love, [Bb] one taught me how to fight.
