[Verse 1]
|
Yo, yo forget the club
|
Today we play in the block
|
It's goin' down and it's blazzin' hot
|
Jeff pop the new CD turn tables joints
|
You just got to get the amps from Boogie
|
Get the van from Rock and then
|
Call up Ishcabibble's, Jim's and Pat's
|
And tell 'em we need cheese steaks for like, 300 cats
|
And yo, make sure it's hot or else I'm sendin' 'em back
|
And get my mic right
|
If I get hyped, I might rap
|
Then take the speakers find a good spot
|
Subs on the bottom, tweeters up top
|
Yo, you know where little John lives on the corner
|
The extension cord'll run perfectly to his crib
|
And then tell Officer Mike to barricade the block
|
Regardless what car you got, leave it up top
|
You wanna come, you got to come on your feet
|
Ain't nothin' like havin' a party
|
When it's out in the street, come on
|
|
[Chorus- Tra-Knox]
|
Nine o'clock I'ma call my crew
|
And ten o'clock we gonna roll on through
|
I don't know what you gon do
|
But whatever you do, hit the block party tonight
|
|
All the ladies rollin' up with friends
|
And don't be late or you wont get in
|
Our party's packed from begining to end
|
Everybody tell a friend that the block party's tonight
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
It's ain't nothin' like
|
Havin' a party on the block
|
When everybody know everybody on the block
|
And everybody on the block
|
Come to the party on the block
|
And when the sun drop, (we don't stop)
|
Funny how fast they travel the word
|
A dozen divas from North Philly drove in when they heard
|
That it's a block party down in West Philly
|
Come block party with Jeff and Big Willy
|
Stand back, everybody come to see the man rap
|
Jeff got it... jam packed
|
Everybody, hands in the air
|
(Just get your hands in the air!)
|
Yo Philly! (dat's where the party's at!)
|
Uuh, D.C. y'all! (dat's where the party's at!)
|
A-T-L (dat's where the party's at!)
|
West side! (dat's where the party's at!)
|
Mid-west y'all (dat's where the party's at!)
|
Dirty South now (dat's where the party's at!)
|
Yo, I can't hear y'all! (dat's where the party's at!)
|
Where ever we at! (dat's where the party's at!)
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Verse 3]
|
Yo, yo and when the sun drop
|
Back in Philly that don't mean that the fun stop
|
All it mean is that it's time to turn the lights on
|
All day long I been plottin' on this nice john
|
It's ten o'clock now Jeff is tryin' to hype me
|
Will the Fresh Prince come up to the mic please?
|
Hear the crowd cheer, broguht a little smile out
|
Mic check, one, two- I'm 'bout to wild out
|
I know he's old, but
|
Mabye it's a slight chance
|
I could get my brother hype
|
Make him break dance- ha, maybe not
|
Lemme get the crowd jumpin'
|
Let me him 'em with the brand new funk or somethin'
|
I'm like Rob Base- I wanna rock right now
|
Y'all know who run the block right now
|
All we need is a mic and a beat
|
And a couple of speakers
|
And some turn tables out in the street, come on!
|
|
[Chorus]
