Hip Hop Hooray - Remastered

Give it up for Naughty By Nature
Yeah
Hip Hop Hooray
Ho, hey, ho, hey, ho, hey, ho

(Yeah) you drew a picture of my mornin', but you couldn't make my day (hey)
I'm rockin', and you're yawnin', but you never look my way (hey)
I'm lickin' down your darlin' in every single way (hey)
Your funny flow is foreign, and a green card's on the way
This ain't got shit to do with shampoo, but watch your head and shoulder
Brother older, bold enough to fold you, you I told you
A raid afraid of what I made and played it, plus a funky fit
So save yo' flips and tricks for that music and the monkey bit

Triggers from the Grill-town, Ill-town, some ask how it feels now
The deal is that we're real, so we're still 'round
Don't lamp with a freestyle phantom ain't tryin' to be handsome
Shrinkin' what you're thinkin', 'cause I'm vampin'
I live and die for hip-hop, this is hip-hop for today

I give props to hip-hop, so Hip Hop hooray
Ho, hey, ho, Hey, ho, hey, ho
Hip Hop Hooray
Ho, hey, ho, hey, ho, hey, ho

You heard a lot about a brother gainin' mo' ground
Bein' low down, I do the showdown with any little ho 'round
No! I wanna know who you believe in
Through your funny reasons even when I'm sleepin' you think I'm cheatin'
You said, "I know you, Mr. O-P.-P man
Yo, PP man, won't only see me man"
You should've known when I ain't hit it and step
That I was with' it's a bit, not to consider the rep, heck

I did your partner 'cause she's hot as a baker
'Cause I'm Naughty By Nature, not 'cause I hate you
You put your heart in a part of a part that spreads apart
And forgot that I forgave when you had a spark (yeah)
You try to act like somethin' really big is missin'
Even though my name's graffiti-written on your kitten
I love black women always and disrespect ain't the way
Let's start a family today, Hip Hop Hooray

Hey, ho, hey, ho, hey, ho, hey, ho
Hip Hop Hooray
Hey, ho, hey, ho, hey, ho, hey, ho

Hip Hop, Hip-Hip Hop, Hip-Hip Hop
There's many hungry hip-hoppers
One reason Hip Hop's tip-top today
Swerve what you heard 'cause I ain't bailin' no hay
Ain't choppin' no crops, but still growin' every day
Here's a thunder sound from the wonders found
From the underground town down the hill
Feel how Ill-town, drown smiles to frowns
Snatchin' crowns from clowns, beat downs are found

Don't know me, don't come around
Tippy, tippy, pause, tippy, tippy, pause
Sometimes creepin' up I eat 'em up, your styles are older than Lou Rawls
Peace to this one and that one and them
That way I shout out, and I didn't miss one friend
Fools get foolish, neither them nor Parker Lewis knew us
You could have crews with shoes and can't step to us (yeah)
Some kitties purr, now call me sir too

Lookin' for her crew, any trick that diss gets a curfew (yeah)
I put on project's for boots, step through troops and leave proof
My problem solver's, her name is Mook (yeah)
I'm hittin' woodies in a hoodie
Peace to Josette, Jobete, Jo-Jo, Genae, and every hood G
That's right, my fight is ill, Peace goes to L.O.N.S. and Quest
Nice & Smooth and Cypress Hill
I live and die for Hip Hop, this is Hip Hop of today
I give props to Hip Hop, so Hip Hop Hooray

Ho, hey, ho, hey, ho, hey, ho
Hip Hop Hooray
Ho, hey, ho, hey, ho, hey, ho

Smooth it out now
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
