Hip Hop Hooray

Give it up for Naughty By Nature!
Hip-hop hooray, ho-ay, ho-ay, ho-ay, ho

You drew a picture of my money but you couldn't make my day (Hey)
I'm rockin' and you're yawnin' but you never look my way (Hey)
I'm lookin' down your drawer and in every single way (Hey)
You're finally for a score and a drink I come my way
You think I'm quick to do a shampoo, but watch your Head & Shoulders
Brother older, pullin' up the folder, yo, I told ya

A raid, afraid of what I made and played and plus a funky bitch
So say you'll flip the trick for the music and the monkey bit
Trick is from the good town ill town, some ask how I feels now
The dollars have been real, so we still brown
The lamp with the fizzle phantom, ain't trying to be handsome
Trickin', what you thinkin' 'cause I'm vampin' (Vampin')

I live and die for hip-hop, this is hip-hop of the day
I give props to hip-hop, so hip-hop hooray

Ho-ay, ho-ay, ho-ay, ho-ay, ho
Hip-hop hooray, ho-ay, ho-ay, ho-ay, ho

You heard a lot about a brother gainin' mo' ground
Bein' lowdown, I threw the showdown with any little ho 'round (No)
I wanna know who you believe in, leave your funny reasons
Even when I'm sleepin', you think I'm cheatin'
You say, "I know you, Mr. O-P-P Man

Your P-P Man was the only me, man"
You shoulda knew when I ain't hittin' his step
That I was word to the beat and to consider the rep, hey
I did your partner 'cause she's hot as a baker
'Cause I'm Naughty By Nature, not 'cause I hate ya

You put your heart in the part of a part that spreads apart
And forgot that I forgave when you had a part
You try to act like somethin' really big is missin'
Even though my name's graffiti-written on your kitten
I love rap women always and disrespect ain't the way
Let's start our friendin' today

Hip-hop hooray, ho-ay, ho-ay, ho-ay, ho
Hip-hop hooray, ho-ay, ho-ay, ho-ay, ho

Hip-hop, if hip-hop, if hip-hop hooray
There's many hungry hip-hoppers, one reason hip-hop's the top today
So 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 wonder sound
From the underground town down a hill for half the town
Drown smiles to frowns, snatchin' crowns from clowns

Beat down, they find a doormat, I come around
Tippy-tippy boss, tippy-tippy boss
Since I'm creepin' upper, eatin' monkeys as I'm older than Lou Rawls
Peace to this one and that one and then
That's why I shout out and didn't end Ms. One friend
Fools get foolish, neither them or rock or Louis newest
You can have crews if shoes and care get to us
Some kiddies startin' to call me sir too, lookin' for her crew
Any trick that diss gets a curfew

I put on projects for boots, step through troops and leave fruit
My problem solved, the name is Spook
I'm hittin' hoodies in the hoodies, peace to Josette
Jo-Bet, to Jo-Jo-Lay and every hood, G

That's right, my fight is ill, please make the L-O-N-S
Inquest, nice and smooth as Cypress Hill
I live and die for hip-hop, this is hip-hop of the day
I give props to hip-hop, so hip-hop hooray

Ho-ay, ho-ay, ho-ay, ho-ay, ho
Hip-hop hooray, ho-ay, ho-ay, ho-ay, ho

Smooth it out now
