Fellas (yeah), I'm back (Back) {fade in}
The aristocratic black (Black)
My whip ain't got no crack (Crack)
But it got a hell of a bang (Hell of a bang)
Fellas (yeah), I'm back (Back)
The aristocratic black (Black)
My whip ain't got no crack (Crack)
But it got a hell of a bang (It's got a hell of a bang)
(What time is it?) {repeat "Wild and Loose" in song)
(Come on) {repeat "777-9311" sample in song}
Everybody get ready
We got a brand new groove
Everybody cold listen
I'm gonna show U what 2 do
Kick your left foot on the beat y'all
Drag the other one behind
If U really wanna be hip
Then stick out your bottom lip
Now U're jammin' fine
CHORUS:
Murph Drag - Only people with money can do this dance
Can do this dance
Murph Drag - My bank roll's gettin' heavy
My bank roll's gettin' heavy in my pants
Murph Drag - Aristocratic dreams, aristocratic dreams
All the fine ladies scream
Murph Drag - Only people with money can do this dance
Can do this dance
Ho! (Murph...)
Count it
They can't mess with U, M.D. (...Drag)
Put it up
Go'n my brotha, tell 'em what time it is!
Everybody get ready
We got a brand new cool
Everybody cold listen
I'm gonna show U what 2 do
But if U can't talk 2 chemicals
U can't talk 2 a gun
We are building up a brand new nation
Business is on the one
CHORUS
(Put it up)
(We hittin', we hittin', woo!)
(Yes)
(Murph Drag) {repeat in background}
I got a Ph.D. in common sense
Can't nobody mess with me
The original jam operator
I could sell a forest trees (Yount!)
U can't dance 2 hard, baby (Go'n and tell her Morris)
I might cop a sweat (Yes)
Y'all keep on dancin'
I'll be on this side (Winkin', blinkin', flinkin')
Winkin', blinkin', flinkin', makin' your lady wet
(Get sleazy y'all)
Murph Drag - Only people with money can do this dance
(Testin' it right, we hittin', we hittin', look out, woo!)
Murph Drag - My bank roll's gettin' heavy
My bank roll's gettin' heavy in my pants
(Murph Drag) {repeat in BG}
Fellas (Yeah), I'm back (Back)
The aristocratic black (Black)
My whip ain't got no crack (Crack)
But it got a hell of a bang (Hell of a bang)
Fellas (Yeah), I'm back (Back) {repeat 2 times}
The aristocratic black (Black)
My whip ain't got no crack (Crack)
But it got a hell of a bang (Got a hell of a Bang)
America (Yeah), I'm back (Back)
The aristocratic black (Black)
My whip ain't got no crack (Crack)
But it got a hell of a bang (Hell of a Bang)
Got a hell of a bang, got a hell of a bang
Got-a-got-a-got-a-got-a hell of a bang
