 Hip Hop Hooray
 Ho, hey, ho, hey, ho, hey, ho
 You drew a picture of my morning but you couldn't make my day (hey!)
 I'm rocking and you're yawning but you never look my way (hey!)
 I'm licking down your darling in every single way (hey!)
 Your funny flow is foreign, and a green card's on the way
 This ain't got sh- to do with shampoo but watch your head and shoulder
 Brother older, bold enough to fold ya, yo, I told ya
 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 Grilltown Illtown
 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 trying to be handsome
 Shrinking what you're thinking, 'cause I'm vamping
 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 gaining more ground
 Being low down, I do the showdown with any little hoe 'round
 No, I wanna know who you believe in
 Me or funny reasons even when I'm sleeping you think I'm cheating
 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 wit' it 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 ya
 You put your heart in a part of a part that spreads apart
 And forgot that I forgave when you had a spark
 You try to act like something really big is missing
 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
 Ho, hey, ho
 Hey, ho, hey, ho
 Hip Hop Hooray
 Ho, hey, ho
 Hey, ho, hey, ho
 Hip Hop, Hip Hip Hop, Hip Hip Hop, Hooray!
 There's many hungry hip-hoppers
 One reason Hip Hop's tip-top today
 Swerve what you heard 'cause I ain't bailing no hay
 Ain't chopping no crops, but still growing every day
 Here's a thunder sound from the wonders found
 From the underground town down the hill
 Feel how Illtown drown smiles to frowns
 Snatching crowns from clowns, beatdowns are found
 Don't know me? Don't come around!
 Tippy tippy, pause, tippy tippy, pause
 Sometimes creeping 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 or Parker Lewis knew us
 You could have crews with shoes and can't step to us
 Some kitties purr, now call me sir too
 Looking for her crew, any trick that diss gets a curfew
 I put on projects for boots
 Step through troops and leave proof
 My problem solver's name is Mook
 I hitting 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
