VERSE
If I could give you the world
On a silver platter
Would it even matter?
You'd still be mad at me
If I could find in all this
A dozen roses
Which I would give to you
You'd still be miserable
In reality, I'm gonna be who I be
And I don't feel no faults
For all the lies that you bought
You can try as you may
Break me down but I say
That it ain't up to you
Gone and do what you do
CHORUS
Hate on me, hater
Now or later
‘Coz I'm gonna do me
You'll be mad, baby
Go ‘head and hate
Go ‘head and hate on me, hate on
‘Coz I'm not afraid of it
What I got I paid for
You can hate on me
Ooh, if I gave you peaches
Out of my own garden
And I made you a peach pie
Would you slap me high
What if I gave you diamonds
Out of my own womb
Would you feel the love in that,
Or ask ‚why not the moon‚Äù?
If I gave you sanity
For the whole of humanity,
Had all the solutions
For the pain and pollution
No matter where I live,
Despite the things I give,
You'll always be this way
So go ‘head and….
You cannot hate on me
‘Cuz my mind is free
Feel my destiny
So shall it be
closeGuitar's best kept secret... Revealed!

E
He was a hard headed man. He was brutally handsome, and she was
terminally pretty. She held him up, and he held her for ransom in the
A7
heart of the cold, cold city. He had a nasty reputation as a cruel dude.
E B7
They said he was ruthless; they said he was crude. They had one thing
A7
in common; they were good in bed. She'd say, Faster, faster. The lights
are turnin' red.
E Tacet E Tacet E Tacet
Life in the fast lane surely make you lose your mind. Life in the
E Tacet
fast lane, mmmm.
Are you with me so far?
E
Eager for action and hot for the game, the coming attraction, the drop
of a name. They knew all the right people; they took all the right
pills. They threw outrageous parties; they paid heavily bills.
A7 E
There were lines on the mirror, lines on her face. She pretended not
B7
to notice; she was caught up in the race. Out every evening until it
A7
was light, he was too tired to make it; she was too tired to fight
about it.
E Tacet E Tacet E Tacet
Life in the fast lane; everything all the time. Life in the fast lane,
E Tacet
uh huh.
E
Blowin' and burnin', blinded by thirst, they didn't see the stop sign;
took a turn for the worst. She said, Listen, baby. You can hear
the engine ring. We've been up and down this highway; haven't seen
A7
a god-dam thing. He said, Call the doctor. I think I'm gonna crash.
E
The doctor says he's coming; but you gotta pay him cast. They went
B7 A7
rushin' down that freeway; messed around and got lost. They didn't
know they were just dying to get off.
E D/E
And it was life in the fast lane,
C/E A/E
life in the fast lane.

It's been seven hours and fifteen days

Since you been gone I can do what-ever I want

I can see whomever I choose

I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant

but nothing, I said nothing can take away these blues
D# Bb
'cos nothing compares
Dm C
nothing compares 2 U.
It's been so lonely without U here
like a bird without a song
nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
tell me baby where did I go wrong?
I could put my arms around every boy I see
but they only remind me of U.
I went to the doctor and guess what he told me guess what he told me
he said- girl U better try to have fun no matter what U do
but he's a fool
'cos nothing compares
nothing compares 2U.
All the flowers that U planted mama
in the back yard
all died when U went away
I know that living with U baby was sometimes hard
but I'm willing 2 give U another try
'cos nothing compares
nothing compares 2U.

I walked forty-seven miles of barbed wire, I got a cobra snake for a necktie
A brand new house on the road side, and it's a-made out of rattlesnake hide
Got a band new chimney that I put on top, and it's a-made out of human skull
Come on take a little walk with me baby, and tell me who do you love?
[chorus 1]
Who do you love?
[verse 2]
Around the town I use a rattlesnake whip, take it easy baby don't you give me no lip
[chorus 2]
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
[verse 3]
I've got a tombstone hand and a graveyard mind, I'm just twenty-two and I don't mind dying
[chorus 3]
Who do you love?
Yeah, who do you love?
Ah, who do you love?
[solo]
[verse 4]
Now Arlene took a-me by my hand, she said lonesome George you know I understand
[chorus 4]
Who do you love?
[verse 5]
The night were dark and the sky were blue, down the alleyway a ice-wagon flew
Hit a bump and somebody screamed, you should've heard what I'd seen
[chorus 5]
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Yeah who do you love?
Ah, who do you love?
[solo]
[verse 6]
Yeah, I've got a tombstone hand in a graveyard mine
Just twenty-two baby I don't mind dying
Snake skin shoes baby put them on your feet
Got the good time music and the Bo Diddley beat
[chorus 6]
Yeah, who do you love?
Ooh, who do you love?
[verse 7]
I walked forty-seven miles of barbed wire, I got a cobra snake for a necktie
A brand new house out on the road side, and it's made out of rattle snake hide
Got a band new chimney that's been put on top, and it's made out of human skull
Come on take a little walk with me child, tell me who do you love?
[chorus 7]
Yeah, who do you love?
Whoo, Who do you love?

[Verse 1]
Am F
Pistol shots ring out in the barroom night
Am F
Enter Patty Valentine from the upper hall
Am F
She sees the bartender in a pool of blood
Am F
Cries out My God they killed them all!
C F
Here comes the story of the Hurricane,
G C F
The man the authorities came to blame
Dm C
For something that he never done
Dm C Em
Put in a prison cell but one time
Am F C G
He could have been the champion of the world
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 2]
Am F
Three bodies lyin’ there does Patty see
Am F
And another man named Bello, movin’ around mysteriously
Am F
I didn’t do it, he says, and he throws up his hands
Am F
I was only robbin’ the register, I hope you understand
C F
I saw them leavin’, he says, and he stops
G C F
One of us had better call up the cops
Dm C
And so Patty calls the cops
Dm C Em
And they arrive on the scene with their red lights flashin’
Am F C G
In the hot New Jersey night
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 3]
Am F
Meanwhile, far away in another part of town
Am F
Rubin Carter and a couple of friends are drivin’ around
Am F
Number one contender for the middleweight crown
Am F
Had no idea what kinda shit was about to go down
C F
When a cop pulled him over to the side of the road
G C F
Just like the time before and the time before that
Dm C
In Paterson that’s just the way things go
Dm C Em
If you’re black you might as well not show up on the street
Am F C G
’Less you wanna draw the heat
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 4]
Am F
Alfred Bello had a partner and he had a rap for the cops
Am F
Him and Arthur Dexter Bradley were just out prowlin’ around
Am F
He said, I saw two men runnin’ out, they looked like middleweights
Am F
They jumped into a white car with out-of-state plates
C F
And Miss Patty Valentine just nodded her head
G C F
Cop said, Wait a minute, boys, this one’s not dead
Dm C
So they took him to the infirmary
Dm C Em
And though this man could hardly see
Am F C G
They told him that he could identify the guilty men
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 5]
Am F
Four in the mornin’ and they haul Rubin in
Am F
Take him to the hospital and they bring him upstairs
Am F
The wounded man looks up through his one dyin’ eye
Am F
Says, Wha’d you bring him in here for? He ain’t the guy!
C F
Yes, here’s the story of the Hurricane
G C F
The man the authorities came to blame
Dm C
For somethin’ that he never done
Dm C Em
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
Am F C G
The champion of the world
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 6]
Am F
Four months later, the ghettos are in flame
Am F
Rubin’s in South America, fightin’ for his name
Am F
While Arthur Dexter Bradley’s still in the robbery game
Am F
And the cops are puttin’ the screws to him, lookin’ for somebody to blame
C F
Remember that murder that happened in a bar?
G C F
Remember you said you saw the getaway car?
Dm C
You think you’d like to play ball with the law?
Dm C Em
Think it might-a been that fighter that you saw runnin’ that night?
Am F C G
Don’t forget that you are white
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 7]
Am F
Arthur Dexter Bradley said, I’m really not sure
Am F
Cops said, A poor boy like you could use a break
Am F
We got you for the motel job and we’re talkin’ to your friend Bello
Am F
Now you don’t wanta have to go back to jail, be a nice fellow
C F
You’ll be doin’ society a favor
G C F
That sonofa is brave and gettin’ braver
Dm C
We want to put his ass in stir
Dm C Em
We want to pin this triple murder on him
Am F C G
He ain’t no Gentleman Jim
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 8]
Am F
Rubin could take a man out with just one punch
Am F
But he never did like to talk about it all that much
Am F
It’s my work, he’d say, and I do it for pay
Am F
And when it’s over I’d just as soon go on my way
C F
Up to some paradise
G C F
Where the trout streams flow and the air is nice
Dm C
And ride a horse along a trail
Dm C Em
But then they took him to the jailhouse
Am F C G
Where they try to turn a man into a mouse
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 9]
Am F
All of Rubin’s cards were marked in advance
Am F
The trial was a pig-circus, he never had a chance
Am F
The judge made Rubin’s witnesses drunkards from the slums
Am F
To the white folks who watched he was a revolutionary bum
C F
And to the black folks he was just a crazy er
G C F
No one doubted that he pulled the trigger
Dm C
And though they could not produce the gun
Dm C Em
The D.A. said he was the one who did the deed
Am F C G
And the all-white jury agreed
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 10]
Am F
Rubin Carter was falsely tried
Am F
The crime was murder one, guess who testified?
Am F
Bello and Bradley and they both baldly lied
Am F
And the newspapers, they all went along for the ride
C F
How can the life of such a man
G C F
Be in the palm of some fool’s hand?
Dm C
To see him obviously framed
Dm C Em
Couldn’t help but make me feel ashamed to live in a land
Am F C G
Where justice is a game
[Instrumental]
| Am | F | Am | F |
[Verse 11]
Am F
Now all the criminals in their coats and their ties
Am F
Are free to drink martinis and watch the sun rise
Am F
While Rubin sits like Buddha in a ten-foot cell
Am F
An innocent man in a living hell
C F
That’s the story of the Hurricane
G C F
But it won’t be over till they clear his name
Dm C
And give him back the time he’s done
Dm C Em
Put in a prison cell, but one time he could-a been
Am F C G
The champion of the world

I'm in my penthouse half naked
I cooked this meal for you naked
So where the hell you at
Just one shot left of this drink, in this glass
Don't make me break it
I wish that you were me
So you could feel this feeling
I never broke one promise, and I know when you're not honest
Now you got me yelling that's because I'm jealous
[Hook-]
If you keeping your promise, I'm keeping mine
Oh I'm jealous
If you keeping your promise, I'm keeping mine
Oh I'm jealous
[Post-Hook-]
Sometimes I want to walk in your shoes
Do the type of things that I never ever do
So I take one look in the mirror and I say to myself
Baby girl you can't survive like this
[Verse 2-]
Take it one step further
Freakum dress out my closet
'Yonce fillin' out this skirt
I look damn good I ain't lost it
And I ain't missed a beat
Boy you been hanging out at tonight
I'm staying out 'til tomorrow
Dancing on them tables ain't got no cares, no sorrow
I ran into my ex
Said what up to his besties
Now we reminiscing how we used to flex in Texas
Don't be jealous
[Hook]
[Post-Hook]
[Bridge-]
And I hate you for your lies and your covers
And I hate us for making good love to each other
And I love making you jealous but don't judge me
And I know I'm being hateful but that ain't nothing
That ain't nothing
I'm just jealous
I'm just human
Don't judge me

We count only blue cars

Skip the cracks in the street

And ask many questions

Like children often do
We said
[Chorus 2]

Bm
I'm walking fast through the traffic lights
Busy streets and busy lives
And all we know, is touch and go
We are alone with our changing minds
We fall in love 'til it hurts or bleeds or fades in time
And I never (never) saw you coming
And I'll never
G
Mmm
Bm
Hey, yeah
C
(That's just for fun) (What?)
Em D
Ah
[Verse 1]
G
I'm not one to stick around
Bm
One strike and you're out, baby
Don't care if I sound crazy
C
But you never let me down, no, no
Em
That's why when the sun's up I'm stayin'
D
Still layin' in your bed sayin'
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Bm
Got all this time on our hands
C
Might as well cancel our plans, yeah
Em D
I could stay here for a lifetime
[Chorus]
G
So, lock the door and throw out the key
Bm
Can't fight this no more, it's just you and me
C
And there's nothin' I, nothin' I, I can do
Em D
I'm stuck with you, stuck with you, stuck with you
G
So, go ahead and drive me insane
Bm
Baby, run your mouth, I still wouldn't change
C
Being stuck with you, stuck with you, stuck with you
Em D
I'm stuck with you, stuck with you, stuck with you, baby
[Verse 2]
G
There's nowhere we need to be, no, no, no
Bm
I'ma get to know you better
Kinda hope we're here forever
C
There's nobody on these streets
Em
If you told me that the world's endin'
D
Ain't no other way that I can spend it
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Bm
Got all this time in my hands
C
Might as well cancel our plans

I could stay here forever

Now and then I think of when we were together
D C D C D C D C
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
D C D C
Told myself that you were right for me
D C D C
But felt so lonely in your company
D C D C D C D C
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember
D C D C D C D C
You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
D C D C D C D C
Like resignation to the end Always the end
D C D C D
So when we found that we could not make sense
D C D C
Well you said that we would still be friends
D C D C D C D C
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over
D C B F
But you didn't have to cut me off
D C
Make out like it never happened
B F
And that we were nothing
D C B F
And I don't even need your love
D C
But you treat me like a stranger
B F
And that feels so rough
D C B F
You didn't have to stoop so low
D C B
Have your friends collect your records
F D
And then change your number
D C B F
I guess that I don't need that though
D C B F
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
D C D C D C D C
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
D C D C D C D C
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
D C D C
And I don't wanna live that way
D C D C
Reading into every word you say
D C D C
You said that you could let it go
D C D C D C D C
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know...
D C B F
But you didn't have to cut me off
D C
Make out like it never happened
B F
And that we were nothing
D C B F
And I don't even need your love
D C
But you treat me like a stranger
B F
And that feels so rough
D C B F
You didn't have to stoop so low
D C B
Have your friends collect your records

And then change your number
D C B F
I guess that I don't need that though

Until the day the earth starts turning right to left
Until the earth just for the sun denies itself
Until dear Mother Nature says her work is through
Until the day that you are me and I am you
[repeat first two lines of chorus 1]
[piano solo]
Interlude-
We all know sometimes life's hate and troubles
Can make you wish you were born in another time and space
But you can bet your life times that and twice its double
That God knew exactly where He wanted you to be placed
So make sure when you say you're in it but not of it
You're not helping to make this Earth a place sometimes called Hell
Change your words into truths and then change that truth into love
And maybe our children's grandchildren
And their great-great-grandchildren will tell
I'll be loving you...
[repeat choruses 1, 2, 3]
Always...

Think it's funny, but honey, can't run this show on your own
I can feel my body shake, there's only so much I can take
I'll show you how a real queen behaves, oh
Pre Chorus:
No damsel in distress, don't need to save me
Once I start breathin' fire, you can't tame me
And you might think I'm weak without a sword
But if I had one, it'd be bigger than yours

Disobey me, then baby, it's off with your head
Gonna change it and make it a world you won't forget, oh-oh, oh

Here are the lyrics-
I wish I could tie you up in my shoes
Make you feel unpretty too
I always thought I was beautiful
But what does that mean to you
Look into the mirror
Who's inside there
The one with the long hair
Same old me again today
My outsides look cool
My insides are blue
Everytime I think I'm through
It's because of you
I try different ways
But it's all the same
At the end of the day
I have myself to blame
I'm just tripping
You can buy your hair if it won't grow
You can fix your nose if he says so
You can buy all the makeup that Mac can make
But if you can't look inside you
Find out who am I to
Be in a position to make me feel so
Damn unpretty
I make you feel unpretty too
Never insecure until I met you
Now I'm being stupid
I used to be so cute to me
Just a little bit skinny
Why do I look to all these things
To keep you happy
Maybe get rid of you
And then I'll get back to me
My outsides look cool
My insides are blue
Everytime I think I'm through
It's because of you
I try different ways
But it's all the same
At the end of the day
I have myself to blame
Keep on tripping
Chorus x2
I make you feel unpretty too
Make me feel unpretty
Oh oh, oh oh oh x4
Chorus
You can buy your hair if it won't grow (ha ha ha ha)
You can buy all the makeup that Mac can make
But if you can't look inside you
Be in a position to make me feel so
You can buy your hair if it won't grow

You can be amazing

You can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug

Nothing's gonna hurt you the way that words do

Kept on the inside and no sunlight

Sometimes a shadow wins

But I wonder what would happen if you

Are we written in the stars, baby, or are we written in the sand

Are we just a backseat, tryna get it while we can

Ohhh wo-oh, Ohhh wo-oh
We share something so common
Still so rare, uncommon all
Never been here before
So high, we're still climbing
Even here inside these walls
Breaking each other's hearts
And we don't care cause we're so
In too deep, can't think about giving it up
But I never knew love would feel like a heart attack
It's killing me, swear I never cried so much
Cause I never knew love would hurt this f*ck*n' bad
The worst pain that I ever had
Ohhh wo-oh, never never never knew love (Ohhh wo-oh) would hurt this f*ck*n' bad
The worst pain that I ever had
Outta times when I know I should be smiling
Seems to be the time that I frown the most
Can't believe that we still suffering
Cause i'm slowly breaking down
Even when I hold you close
And if I lose you
I'm afraid I would lose who
I gave my love to
That's the reason I stay around
Even though I fell way
In too deep, can't think about giving it up
But I never knew love would feel like a heart attack
It's killing me, swear I never cried so much
Cause I never knew love would hurt this f*ck*n' bad
The worst pain that I ever had
Ohhh wo-oh, never never never knew love (Ohhh wo-oh) would hurt this f*ck*n' bad
The worst pain that I ever had
And it hurts,
Cause I wanna leave, and you wanna leave
But the loves keeps us together
And if I lose you
I'm afraid I would lose who
I gave my love to
That's the reason I stay around
Even though I fell way

[Verse 1] Am AminMaj7 Amin7 Amin6
Watch the sunrise / Say your goodbyes
Off you go / Some conversation
No contemplation / Hit the road]
Car overheats / Jump out of my seat
On the side of the highway, baby / Our road is long
Your hold is strong / Please don't ever let go, oh no
RAP

Everyone has a secret / But can they keep it / Oh no, they can't

I'm driving fast now
Don't think I know how to go slow
Oh, where you at now?
I feel around
There you are
Cool these engines
Calm these jets
I ask you how hot can it get
And as you wipe off beads of sweat
Slowly you say "I'm not there yet!"
[Chorus]
Am B7 Bbmaj7 Am Am B7 Bbmaj7 E
I know I don't know you / But I want you so bad
Everyone has a secret / But can they keep it / Oh no, they can't

Listen to the song for rhythm and the layout of the song. Ive tried to tab out the
as best as i could and hope its clear enough to understand.
Lyrics-
said a hip hop
the hippie the hippie
to the hip hip hop, a you dont stop the rock it
to the bang bang boogie, say up jumped the boogie
to the rhythm of the boogie, the beat
now what you hear is not a test--i'm rappin to the beat
and me, the groove, and my friends are gonna try to move your feet
see i am wonder mike and i like to say hello
to the black, to the white, the red, and the brown, the purple and yellow
but first i gotta bang bang the boogie to the boogie
say up jump the boogie to the bang bang boogie
let's rock, you dont stop
rock the riddle that will make your body rock
well so far you've heard my voice but i brought two friends along
and next on the mike is my man hank
come on, hank, sing that song
check it out, i'm the c-a-s-an-the-o-v-a
and the rest is f-l-y
ya see i go by the code of the doctor of the mix
and these reasons i'll tell ya why
ya see i'm six foot one and i'm tons of fun
and i dress to a T
ya see i got more clothes than muhammad ali and i dress so viciously
i got bodyguards, i got two big cars
that definitely ain't the wack
i got a lincoln continental and a sunroof cadillac
so after school, i take a dip in the pool
which really is on the wall
i got a color tv so i can see
the knicks play basketball
hear me talkin bout checkbooks, credit cards
more money than a sucker could ever spend
but i wouldnt give a sucker or a bum from the rucker
not a dime till i made it again
everybody go, hotel motel
what you're gonna do today (say what)
cause i'm going to get a fly girl, gonna get some spanking drive off off in a fresh oj.
go hotel, motel, holiday inn
say if your girl starts actin up, then you take her friend
master g, my mellow
its on you so what you gonna do
well it's on n on n on on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
i said m-a-s, t-e-r, a g with a double e
i said i go by the unforgettable name
of the man they call the master gee
well, my name is known all over the world
by all the foxy ladies and the pretty girls
i'm goin down in history
as the baddest rapper there ever could be
now i'm feelin the highs and ya feelin the lows
the beat starts gettin into your toes
ya start poppin ya fingers and stompin your feet
and movin your body while youre sittin in your seat
and the damn ya start doin the freak
i said damn, right outta your seat
then ya throw your hands high in the air
ya rockin to the rhythm, shake your derriere
ya rockin to the beat without a care
with the sureshot m.c.s for the affair
now, im not as tall as the rest of the gang
but i rap to the beat just the same
i dot a little face and a pair of brown eyes
all im here to do ladies is hypnotize
singin on n n on n on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
singin on n n on n on on n on
like a hot buttered a pop da pop da pop dibbie dibbie
pop da pop pop ya dont dare stop
come alive yall gimme what ya got
i guess by now you can take a hunch
and find that i am the baby of the bunch
'but that's okay i still keep in stride
cause all i'm here to do is just wiggle your behind
singin on n n on n on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
singin on n n on n on on n on
rock rock yall throw it on the floor
im gonna freak ya here im gonna feak ya there
im gonna move you outta this atmosphere
cause im one of a kind and ill shock your mind
ill put t-n-t in your behind
i said 1-2-3-4, come on girls get on the floor
a-come alive, yall a-gimme what ya got
cause im guaranteed to make you rock
i said 1-2-3-4 tell me wonder mike what are you waitin for?
i said hip hop the hippie to the hippie

to the bang bang the boogie say up jumped the boogie
to the rhythm of the boogie the beat
skiddlee beebop a we rock a scoobie doo
and guess what america we love you
cause ya rocked and a rolled with so much soul
you could rock till you're a hundred and one years old
i dont mean to brag i don't mean to boast
but we like hot butter on our breakfast toast
rock it up a baby bubbah
baby bubbah to the boogie da bang bang da boogie
to the beat beat, its so unique
come on everybody and dance to the beat
a hip hop
the hippie the hippie to the
hip hip hop, a you dont stop rock it
rock it out baby bubbah to the boogie da bang bang
the boogie to the boogie da beat
i said i cant wait til the end of the week
when im rappin to the rhythm of a groovy beat
and attempt to raise your body heat
just blow your mind so that you can't speak
and do a thing bout a rock and shuffle your feet
and let it change up to a dance called the freak
and when ya finally do come in to your rhythmic beat
rest a little while so ya don't get weak
i know a man named hank
he has more rhymes than a serious bank
so come on hank sing that song
to the rhythm of the boogie da bang bang da bong
well, im imp the dimp the ladies pimp
the women fight for my delight
but im the grandmaster with the three mc's
that shock the house for the young ladies
and when you come inside, into the front
you do the freak, spank, and do the bump
and when the sucker mc's try to prove a point
[ Tab from- http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-sugarhill-gang/128630.html ]
we're treacherous trio, we're the serious joint
a from sun to sun and from day to day
i sit down and write a brand new rhyme
because they say that miracles never cease
i've created a devastating masterpiece
i'm gonna rock the mike till you cant resist
everybody, i say it goes like this
well i was comin home late one dark afternoon
a reporter stopped me for a interview
she said she's heard stories and she's heard fables
that i'm vicious on the mike and the turntable
this young reporter i did adore
so i rocked some vicious rhymes like i never did before
she said damn fly guy im in love with you
the casanova legend must have been true
i said by the way baby what's your name
said i go by the name of lois lane
and you could be my boyfiend you surely can
just let me quit my boyfriend called superman
i said he's a fairy i do suppoose
flyin through the air in pantyhose
he may be very sexy or even cute
but he looks like a sucker in a blue and red suit
i said you need a man who's got finesse
and his whole name across his chest
he may be able to fly all through the night
but can he rock a party til the early light
he cant satisfy you with his little worm
but i can bust you out with my super sperm
i go do it, i go do it, i go do it, do it , do it
an i'm here an i'm there i'm big bang hank, im everywhere
just throw your hands up in the air
and party hardy like you just dont care
let's do it don't stop yall a tick a tock yall you don't stop
go hotel motel what you gonna do today (say what)
im gonna get a fly girl gonna get some spank drive off in a def oj
everybody go hotel motel holiday inn
you say if your girl starts actin up then you take her friend
i say skip, dive, what can i say
i can't fit em all inside my oj
so i just take half and bust them out
i give the rest to master gee so he could shock the house
it was twelve o'clock one friday night
i was rockin to the beat and feelin all right
everybody was dancin on the floor
doin all the things they never did before
and then this fly fly girl with a sexy lean
she came into the bar, she came into the scene
she traveled deeper inside the room
all the fellas checked out her white sasoons
she came up to the table, looked into my eyes
then she turned around and shook her behind
so i said to myself, its time for me to release
my vicious rhyme i call my masterpiece
and now people in the house this is just for you
a little rap to make you boogaloo
now the group ya hear is called phase two
and let me tell ya somethin we're a hell of a crew
once a week we're on the street
just a-cuttin' the jams and making it free
for you to party ya got to have the movies
so we'll get right down and give you the groove
for you to dance you gotta get hype
so we'll get right down for you tonight
now the system's on and the girls are there
ya definitely have a rockin affair
but let me tell ya somethin there's still one fact
and to have a party ya got to have a rap
so when the party's over you're makin it home
and tryin to sleep before the break of dawn
and while ya sleepin ya start to dream
and thinkin how ya danced on the disco scene
my name appears in your mind
yeah, a name you know that was right on time
it was phase two just a doin a do
rockin ya down cause ya know we could
to the rhythm of the beat that makes ya freak
come alive girls get on your feet
to the rhythm of the beat to the beat the beat
to the double beat beat that it makes ya freak
to the rhythm of the beat that says ya go on
on n on into the break of dawn
now i got a man comin on right now
he's guaranteed to throw down
he goes by the name of wonder mike
come on wonder mike do what ya like
i say a can of beer that's sweeter than honey
like a millionaire that has no money
like a rainy day that is not wet
like a gamblin fiend that does not bet
like dracula with out his fangs
like the boogie to the boogie without the boogie bang
like collard greens that dont taste good
like a tree that's not made out of wood
like goin up and not comin down
is just like the beat without the sound no sound
to the beat beat, ya do the freak
everybody just rock and dance to the beat
have you ever went over a friends house to eat
and the food just ain't no good
i mean the macaroni's soggy the peas are mushed
and the chicken tastes like wood
so you try to play it off like you think you can
by sayin that youre full
and then your friend says momma he's just being polite
he ain't finished uh uh that's bull
so your heart starts pumpin and you think of a lie
and you say that you already ate
and your friend says man there's plenty of food
so you pile some more on your plate
while the stinky foods steamin your mind starts to dreamin
of the moment that it's time to leave
and then you look at your plate and your chickens slowly rottin
into something that looks like cheese
oh so you say that's it i got to leave this place
i dont care what these people think
im just sittin here makin myself nauseous
with this ugly food that stinks
so you bust out the door while its still closed
still sick from the food you ate
and then you run to the store for quick relief
from a bottle of kaopectate
and then you call your friend two weeks later
to see how he has been
and he says i understand about the food
baby bubbah but we're still friends
with a hip hop the hippie to the hippie
the hip hip a hop a you don't stop the rockin
to the bang bang boogie
say up jump the boogie to the rhythm of the boogie the beat
i say hank can ya rock
can ya rock to the rhythm that just don't stop
can ya hip me to the shoobie doo
i said come on make the make the people move
i go to the halls and then ring the bell
because i am the man with the clientele
and if ya ask me why i rock so well
a big bang, i got clientele
and from the time i was only six years old
i never forgot what i was told
it was the best advice that i ever had
it came from my wise dear old dad
he said sit down punk i wanna talk to you
and don't say a word until im through
now there's a time to laugh a time to cry
a time to live and a time to die
a time to break and a time to chill
to act civilized or act real ill
but whatever ya do in your lifetime
ya never let a mc steal your rhyme
so from six to six til this very day
ill always remember what he had to say
so when the sucker mc's try to chump my style
i let them know that i'm versatile
i got style finesse and a little black book
that's filled with rhymes and i know you wanna look
but the thing that separates you from me
and that's called originality
because my rhymes are on from what you heard
i didnt even bite and not a go word
and i say a little more later on tonight
so the suker mc's can bite all night
a tick a tock yall a beat beat yall
a lets rock yall ya don't stop
ya go hotel motel whatcha gonna do today (say what)
ya say im gonna get a fly girl gonna get some spankin

and the fire brigade comes in a couple of days

Until then we've got nothing to say and nothing to know
But something to drink and maybe something to smoke

Let it go until our roads will change,
Singing we found love in a local rave
C#m
No I don't really know what I'm supposed to say,
But I can just figure it out and hope and pray
G#m
I told her my name, I said it's nice to meet you,
Then she handed me a bottle of water filled with tequila
G#m
I already know she's a keeper, just from this one small act of kindness, I'm in

Deep shit If anybody finds out I'm meant to drive home, but I took all of it down
Not sobering up we sit on the couch

One thing led to another now she's kissing my mouth

Oh, my, god. Becky, look at her butt.
It is so big. [scoff] She looks like,
one of those rap guys' girlfriends.
But, you know, who understands those rap guys? *scoff*
They only talk to her, because,
she looks like a total prostitute, 'kay?
[bass ostinato]
I mean, her butt, is just so big.
I can't believe it's just so round, it's like,
out there, I mean - gross. Look!
She's just so ... black!
Cm
I like big butts and I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung, wanna pull out your tough
'Cause you notice that butt was stuffed
Deep in the jeans she's wearing
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring
Oh baby, I wanna get with you
And take your picture
My homeboys tried to warn me
But that butt you got makes me so horny
Ooh, Rump-o'-smooth-skin
You say you wanna get in my Benz?
Well, use me, use me
'Cause you ain't that average groupie
I've seen them dancin'
To hell with romancin'
She's sweat, wet,
Got it goin' like a turbo 'Vette
I'm tired of magazines
Sayin' flat butts are the thing
Take the average black man and ask him that
She gotta pack much back
So, fellas! (Yeah!) Fellas! (Yeah!)
Has your girlfriend got the butt? (Hell yeah!)
Tell 'em to shake it! (Shake it!) Shake it! (Shake it!)
Shake that healthy butt!
Baby got back!
(LA face with Oakland booty)
Cm
Baby got back!
[Sir Mix-a-Lot]
Cm
I like 'em round, and big
And when I'm throwin' a gig
I just can't help myself, I'm actin' like an animal
Now here's my scandal
I wanna get you home
And ugh, double-up, ugh, ugh
I ain't talkin' bout Playboy
'Cause silicone parts are made for toys
I want 'em real thick and juicy
So find that juicy double
Mix-a-Lot's in trouble
Beggin' for a piece of that bubble
So I'm lookin' at rock videos
Knock-kneeded bimbos walkin' like hoes
You can have them bimbos
I'll keep my women like Flo Jo
A word to the thick soul sisters, I wanna get with ya
I won't cuss or hit ya
But I gotta be straight when I say I wanna *fuck*
Till the break of dawn
Baby got it goin' on
A lot of simps won't like this song
'Cause them punks like to hit it and quit it
And I'd rather stay and play
'Cause I'm long, and I'm strong
And I'm down to get the friction on
So, ladies! {Yeah!} Ladies! {Yeah}
If you wanna roll in my Mercedes {Yeah!}
Then turn around! Stick it out!
Even white boys got to shout
Baby got back!
Cm
Baby got back!
Yeah, baby ... when it comes to females, Cosmo ain't got nothin'
to do with my selection. 36-24-36? Ha ha, only if she's 5'3.
Cm
So your girlfriend rolls a Honda, playin' workout tapes by Fonda
But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda
My anaconda don't want none
Unless you've got buns, hun
You can do side bends or sit-ups,
But please don't lose that butt
Some brothers wanna play that hard role
And tell you that the butt ain't gold
So they toss it and leave it
And I pull up quick to retrieve it
So Cosmo says you're fat
Well I ain't down with that!
'Cause your waist is small and your curves are kickin'
And I'm thinkin' bout stickin'
To the beanpole dames in the magazines-
You ain't it, Miss Thing!
Give me a sister, I can't resist her
Red beans and rice didn't miss her
Some knucklehead tried to dis
'Cause his girls are on my list
He had game but he chose to hit 'em
And I pull up quick to get wit 'em
So ladies, if the butt is round,
And you want a triple X throw down,
Dial 1-900-MIXALOT
And kick them nasty thoughts
Baby got back!

[Verse 1] Em C D G
Although loneliness has always been a friend of mine
I'm leavin' my life in your hands
People say I'm crazy and that I am blind
Risking it all in a glance
And how you got me blind is still a mystery
I can't get you out of my head
Don't care what is written in your history
As long as you're here with me
[Chorus 1] C G Em D
I don't care who you are
Where you're from
What you did
As long as you love me
Who you are
Where you're from
Don't care what you did
As long as you love me
[Verse 2]
Every little thing that you have said and done
Feels like it's deep within me
Doesn't really matter if you're on the run
It seems like we're meant to be
[Chorus]
[Bridge] Em G
I've tried to hide it so that no one knows
C
But I guess it shows
C D
When you look into my eyes
Em G
What you did and where you're comin from
C#m7b5 Cmaj7 D C G Em D
I don't care, as long as you love me, baby
