The Block Party Lyrics

Uh, uh, shake, uh, shake it down now

Uh, uh, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah one time

Two times, shake it down now



(Verse 1)

Remember way back in the day (hey hey)

When the kids from around the way

Used to come out and play

And the double dutch bus

Had you bumpin' on down the street

Tryin' to move your feet

While you shake your little booty

To the groove of the beat (uh)

To the beat

To the beat (beat)

You hit the corner and you stopped

Hey y'all there's a party on the other block

We hit the jackpot

Jackpot (what what)

And it's only 12 o'clock

And the sun is hot

Free soda pop

We about to rock rock rock rock...



[What's your name] Lisa

[And where you from] 9th street

[Where you goin'] To the party

[Can I come] Uh huh

Ooh...they're playin' hop scotch



Come on

Come on hop with me

Come on

Ooh...them boys is pop lockin'

Come on

Come on bounce with me



We were dancing all night long

We were dancing all night long

Music pumping and we're jumping

And they played our favorite songs



We were dancing all night long

We were dancing all night long

Music pumping and we're jumping

And they played our favorite songs



I'm a big city girl

From all over the world

And I do what I wanna do

Right foot left shoe

Then you take it on down

Then you shake it around

Bring it up

Clap your hands

Then you turn it all around



We were dancing all night long

We were dancing all night long

Music pumping and we're jumping

And they played our favorite songs



(Verse 2)

Remember when we did the wop (pop pop)

And you used to make that head bop (bop)

Like it would never stop (stop)

And them other grown folks

Gettin' busy with the gigolo

Drinkin' Michelob

It was 6am before they hit the road (uh)

Hit the road hit the road (road)

Them fat gold chains and high top banks (hey)

Run DMC was all you ever played (yeah)

Shell toe Adidas

No strings (mmm mmmm)

There's somethin' cookin' in the pop

About to hit the spot

Boombox

Play me some of that hip hop (hip hop)

Hip hop hip hop hip hop.....



[What's your name] Lisa

[And where you from] 9th street

Come on

Ooh...they on the dance floor

Come on

We were dancing all night long

We were dancing all night long [Two times]

Then you take it on down

Then you shake it around
