Run DMC Album

(Jermaine Dupri)
uh huh

ah hah
ah hah

see when y'all heard that
all I'm doin is laughin' at all y'all niggas that been frontin'
on my man's in there man, these niggas started this shit man

(Run)
When I come to the show that I rock
and the flow that I drop
y'all know Run kills the mic
can't forget about the olds that I got
and the rolls in the spot
ya'll know I didn't steal it right?
how ya gonna take an old song been around so long
so so def done made it tight
done went from a DJ to an MC to the REV like overnight
everybody lookin' players get shook when
Rev Run walk up in the spot
even though the crooks that
be livin' up out in Brooklyn
just can't help but point a lot
everywhere I go now
people say "oh wow"
cause they know how I get
It don't matter if it's motown
all the way to your town
you can't slow down my hits

(Jermaine Dupri)
can't slow it down man
think about this
from 1983 to 2000, its 2001
and these niggas are still on the run
y'all niggas just crazy
ya'll out here tryin' to front
like they ain't the reason nigga went and bought a pair of shell toes
the f*ck is wrong with y'all

(Run)
People wanna hear Rev Run say
cuz I got dough that I must be a type of fraud
but you know that the thing that's funny
if God made money, then how rich is the Lord
went got JD , made me crazy play me up in the club
got a brand new Mercedes for my lady
bustin me I'm older
to a Bentley Arnage that come out the garage
on the side of a grand prestigious home
Y'all ask if I'm blessed, by God player,
what you thought, what Rev you see on chromes
gotta make these dollars, comin outta Hollis
got my collar on two, I got the rhyme on the beat
and the vibe from the street and now the rest is on you

(Jermaine Dupri)
the rest is on me man
let me let j'all know somethin'
the first rap group to get on MTV
heard heavy ya heard me
and then they go turn around and resurrect Aerosmith like
you know what I mean, there ain't none of that,
know what I'm sayin
and if it weren't for these cats man y'all wouldn't know
nothin' about no LL Cool J or Beastie Boys you know what I mean
and this comin' from me I'm lookin at it man
since I've been 13 years old, now I been watchin these cats man
I aint no old nigga, but I know nigga ya heard me
ya know what I'm sayin', so stop all that frontin' man
stop all your frontin' ya heard me
ya hear

(Run)
Don't forget the hits that I made on the gig that I played
if ya had love back in the day
just raised up my kicks and changed up the spit
and turned into the Run y'all love today
I picked the mic back up, came right back up
to the top where I'm supposed to be (JD: supposed to be)
and when the track light up y'all come back right up
y'all playa's too close to me

(Jermaine Dupri)
You know what I used to like?
the way my man used to come up on stage
and grab the mic and just throw the damn stand
across the stage man
then he used to tell his man like
"Yo D, come right here in the middle of the stage,
grab yo dick and say what you gotta say"
and you know what D used to say
he used to say
"Party people, your dreams have now
been fullfilled, get out your seats and let's get ill
that's right y'all, we not just rough, we more than tough"
and when it comes to shit like this hah we got enough
know what I mean? you know who the f*ck I am
you know my name, you know my game
its So So Def, Run DMC

Ah, Ya, yeah, ya
Seen this girl on the block by the boon-ah
On the spot she was down for the boom-mark
Drop doc she was rockin a Tupac
Said: yo D now me, what's you got
He says: ba boo bang, ba boo bang
Ba boo bang
Seen a girl so crystal clean, I mean
Since I've been on the scene I've dreamed
Of girls to tops poofs on rooftops
Now this girl, who cruises the two pack
Get this girl in my bathtub, and rub my back rub
My bathroom's like a nightclub
A few ladies in my tin to find the limb
A few ladies in the bin, to put some yellow in
Any mighty fine fellow men like myself
To organize the panties on the shelves

[Chorus.]
Them girls, them girls
Them girls I do adore

I like em' sweet and fine
I get a wine to bind
All kinds I love them all

Them girls, them girls
Them girls around the way

I like a limit to a lime
The women so fine sometimes they make me say:

Had a fly girl go called her honey
Make this spent up all my money
Fred went to bed with a girl from college, what
He told me she was looking for dollars
E to MC that don't get played
Girls gonna chase him, but they don't get paid
They might get naked, but they don't get laid
The school needs girls who made first grade

I like the small girls, I like the tall girls
I like all the girls looking merry, call girls
So Run, let's bring the girls in
And their girlfriends, but no one let the squirrels in
As for the boyfriends step on joy
When the girlfriends come home and bring Limp Bizkit toys in
I like erection when I'm in the states
But no silicone cause' I don't like the fake shit

[Chorus.]
Them girls, them girls
Them girls I do adore

I like em' sweet and fine
I get a wine to bind
All kinds I love them all

Them girls, them girls
Them girls around the way

I like a limit to a lime
The women so fine sometimes they make me say:

Them girls, them girls
Them girls, them girls
Them girls, them girls
Them girls, them girls
Them girls, them girls
Them girls, them girls
Them girls, them girls
Them girls, them girls

Yo, yo girls in line now
Girls galore, girls I've never even seen before
The way they sway, that makes me smile
And Run gett a dime on the top of the pile

Girls are freaking things are good
Girls can fill up my neighborhood
But don't take my sunshine I'll be OK
Some seam girlies I hear are snakes

[Chorus. (X2)]
Them girls, them girls
Them girls I do adore

I like em' sweet and fine
I get a wine to bind
All kinds I love them all

Them girls, them girls
Them girls around the way

I like a limit to a lime
The women so fine sometimes they make me say

Them girls, them girls
Them girls, them girls
Them girls, them girls
Them girls, them girls
Them girls, them girls
Them girls, them girls
Them girls, them girls
Them girls, them girls

[Run] Now the things I do make me a star
And you can be too if you know who you are

[Kid] Like a Brougham on the corner, big boy in a car
Be the Kid in Kid Rock, with the baw-wit-da-baw
Be hard as law, what you saw is law

[Run] Once again my friend, it's DJ Run on tour
[Kid] Like DJ Run's his name
[Run] Like Kid Rock is his
[Kid] He's D.M.C. it's like that and that's the way it is

[Run] Beats get you open my voice is just like a (HURRA)
cane come invadin your statement and made a (TERROR)
Flows doin shows they knows I go (OVER)

[Kid] Hoes even chose to pose for this Rover

[Run] Eyes come to see the three in live footage
Jay Run and D.M.C., that's what the hood is

[Kid] Never been a time like this that's so vital

[Run] "I'm the King of Rock".. cause that's my title

[Kid] Then take a count, one two three
"Jam Master Jay, Run-D.M.C."

[Run] ... You see, I..
[Kid] want respect
[Run] And if I'm correct
[Kid] Well then you're all like a call that I had checked
[Run] And the shots that they take have no effect
[Kid] Some punk tried to dunk but he broke his neck
Cause I rock harder, and I roll farther
You wanna battle Kid Rock, bitch don't bother

[Run] You waste your time, messin with my rhymes
[Kid] The only kick you'l get out of is in your behind

[Kid] Fire, blaze, my name is worldwide
When we yes yes y'all we rock it all night
[Run] To other MC's doin rock'n'roll
It's Run-D.M.C., Kid Rock patrol
DJ Run 'til I'm done, D.M.C.'s the soul
Got MTV on remote control
Platinum platinum can't mess with gold
We never let go of the mics we hold
Our joints get played your select's the mode
D.M.C.'s spittin flame while your jams is cold
Over thirty-million records worldwide we sold
Darryl Mack, JMJ, and my name is Joe
The other MC's know about the show
Hook the turntables up to the telephone pole
Rock a rhyme nine nine 'til it's time to go
Cough up a long, DJ Run, got a rhyme to flow
I come from a school that they call the old
D.M.C. stands for Devestating Mic Control
I come from a school that they call the old
We never let go of the mics we hold
I come from a school that they call the old
Over thirty million records worldwide we sold
I come from a school that they call the old
It's Run-D.M.C., Kid Rock patrol

I come from a school that they call the old..
Dum diddy dum diddy diddy dumb dumb

[Kid] You see, I.. want respect
[Run] and if I'm correct
[Kid] Well then you wall like a ball that I had checked
[Run] And the shots that they take have no effect
[Kid] Some punk tried to dunk but he broke his neck
Cause I rock harder, and I grow farther
You wanna battle Kid Rock, bitch don't bother
[Run] Don't waste your time, messin with my rhymes
[Kid] The only kick you'll get out of it IS IN YOUR BEHIND

[Run]
Let me tell you bout what I love in Gina
Love is like no other couldn't get in between her
Always stayed fly man I wished that you seen her
Said they had a scheme but nobody believed her
No real job cause she stay in the streets
Gina did nails but her love made beats
When they wanna eat they just walked in the store
They took what they wanted man the illest you saw
Til one day they went up kindin fiendin with ice
Butter like(?) the jeans and Gina said "The rings are nice"
Next thing you know they wanna pull off a heist
Shook took a look and shot the jeweler twice
Diamonds all shinin as they flew in the air
Butter actin up and grabbin stuff by the pair
Gina at the door cause she good with the gun
They both grabbed the money and run

[Chorus: Everlast]
C'mon, take the money and run {*v/ scratched: "Run"*}
C'mon, take the money and run {*v/ scratched: "Run"*} hey, hey, hey
C'mon, take the money and run {*v/ scratched: "Run"*}
C'mon, take the money and run {*v/ scratched: "Run.."*} hey, hey, hey

[Run]
Spoonie was a rookie that was new on the scene
Used to be a thug now he's doin it clean
Ironic he was coppin and they gave him the spot
Knew Butter back from Hollis used to chill on the block
Seen Butter round the way with a brand new Benz
Gina lookin pretty in the city with friends
Spoonie's sayin yo I gotta get these ends
And these are the two I gotta apprehend
A big boy from Hollis promised not to tell
And lead these cops on a long long trail
Spoonie saw Gina and the chick turned pale
Runnin sayin somethin like she don't got bail
Butter said promise me I won't see jail
Spoonie want a watch and a brand new cell
Butter and Gina moved to Pensacola
Spoonie got a Roley and a Motorola

[Chorus] w/ variations

[Run]
All I can say is about the story
Is livin like Butter Love is not for me
Let me show you how we get the money legit
Jack B. Nimble was nimble, and he was quick
Rev. Run, D.M.C. is the +Kings of Rock+
Rolled to the top and then we never did drop
You still here to jam me in two thousand and one
Then me and D'll take the money and run

[Chorus] - 2X w/ variations

[Everlast]
Hey, hey, hey

I ain't stoopid y'all, outrageous
Actin like Run can't rock all ages
So...Joe - act like y'all don't know
Run be rockin since Kurtis Blow

Me and my brother be gettin this dough
Came in the door, said it befoe'
These are the Kings from around the way
Run-DMC and Jam Master Jay...

Chorus:

I'm the King (what's up?) of ROCK!
Who am I?
I'm the King (of what?) of ROCK!
WHO ARE WE?
I'm the King (alright, never let ya down) of ROCK!
In the end it's just a rock show
I'm the King (alright, alright, alright) of ROCK!
In the end it's just a rock show

Y'all wanna know what it takes to be
An MC like D in the place to be
Gotta a house on the hill full of family
With the grass more green than a gram of weed

Stars in the cars on the way to my Show
Gettin raw at the pub when they're drinking the mo
With a cigar and the pumps he be getting the dough
And unchanged with the lane and the range of the roll

Just 'cause y'all know my name
Heard my fame and seen my game
Don't mean I'm all about the glitter and glam
The King of Rock - is who I am

Raw - we are - by law
First one rockin' in Adidas y'all saw
Jumped on Tour way back in '84
Jay, Run, D, Macs rock-knockin' at your door

Chorus:

I'm the King (alright, never let ya down) of ROCK!
In the end it's just a rock show
I'm the King (alright, never let ya down) of ROCK!
Cause in the end it's just a rock show
I'm the King (alright, never let ya go) of ROCK!
cause in the end it's just a rock show
I'm the King (alright, alright, alright) of ROCK!
In the end it's just a rock show
Who am I?
I'm the King (alright, alright, alright/of what?) of ROCK!
In the end it's just a rock show

Hey, y'all, it's me, the 3EB
And one see the sucker three
You show y'all it can be done
Step up and smoke everyone
Hey, wow
Can't touch this (x5)

Let’s stay together (together forever)

Let's stay together
Yo, yeah, DMC my man
In the place to be
Yo, this song is dedicated (word)
(Whether good days, happy or sad)
To all of those that's been down with each other since day one
Aha, let's keep it together
Now we've been all around the world
From the corner of the block to the top of the world and back
Bought a rolly on the Ave, ain't nobody ever have
And the brand new jet black Cadillac
We've been down since day one
And no matter where I go, people want to see you next to me
They say, "what's up with D?" I used to jam all across the land
The colosseum, even MSG, went raised hell with Cazals
In the shells, and the plush hotel after every show
We were just kids on the mic, living the life
Of MTV and the radio
And so you, Jay, and me since ‘83
Been livin’ and stickin’ together like a family
And no matter what the rumours be
That’s guaranteed that I'm for you, and you for me
So
Let's stay together let's stay together
Loving you whether times are good or bad
And happy or sad
Yo, my love of the mic, can't touch my love for my wife
Baby I ain't going nowhere, ’specially the way you smile
When you have my child, or when I rock the crowd
Can't wait to be right there
Even my kids that ain't yours still yours
’Cause you love ‘em and you treat ‘em like your very own
We be holding hands, and I be holding doors
And with my mother in-law, I spend time alone
Call about five hundred times a day
When I'm off and gone ‘cause I'm on the road
And when I'm on the phone, you know I want to be home
’Cause that's the one and only spot where I really belong
You know I love callin’ you the preachers' wife
With the keys to the Bentley, livin’ it up
And everybody would know, done seen us in the video
On the dance floor, straight cuttin’ it up
I love you baby
Let's stay together, let's stay together
Loving you whether times are good or bad, happy or sad
To me, you mean the world
No matter what it is you say or do
I always will be there for you
So know, no matter what, let's stay together
Through the good, bad, happy or sad
You mean the world, no matter what is it you say or do
I always will be there for you
So know, no matter what, let's stay together
Through the good, bad, happy or sad
Let's stay together
Loving you whether times are good or bad, happy or sad
Ain't no reason to leave nobody you love
Best thing in life is to have somebody, ya heard
So keep it together
Good, bad, happy or sad
