Rappers Delight - The Sugarhill Gang

Lyrics by：Bernard Edwards/Nile Rodgers

Composed by：Bernard Edwards/Nile Rodgers

Now what you hear is not a test

I'm rappin' to the beat

And me the groove

And my friends are gonna try to move your feet

See I am Wonder Mike

And I'd like to say hello

To the black to the white the red

And the brown the purple and yellow

But first I gotta bang bang

The boogie to the boogie

Say up jump the boogie

To the bang bang boogie

Let's rock you don't stop

Rock the riddle that will make your body rock

Well so far you've heard my voice

But I brought two friends along

And next on the mike is my man Hank

Come on Hank sing that song

Check it out I'm the C-A-S-AN

The O-V-A and the rest is F-L-Y

You see I go by the code of the doctor of

The mix and these reasons I'll tell you why

You see I'm six foot one and

I'm tons of fun and I dress to a D

You see I got more clothes than

Muhammad Ali and I dress so viciously

I got bodyguards I got two big cars

That definitely ain't the whack

I got a Lincoln continental and a sunroof Cadillac

So after school I take a dip in the pool

Which is really on the wall

I got a color TV so I can see the

Knicks play basketball

Hear me talking 'bout checkbooks credit cards

More money than a sucker could ever spend

But I wouldn't give a sucker or a bum from the Rucker

Not a dime 'til I made it again

Everybody go Hotel motel

Whatcha gonna do today

Say what

'Cause I'ma get a fly girl

Gonna get some spank and drive off in a def OJ

Everybody go Hotel motel Holiday Inn

You see if your girl starts acting up

Then you take her friend

Uh Master Gee my mellow

It's on you so what you gonna do

Well it's on and on and on on and on

The beat don't stop until the break of dawn

I said a M-A-S a T-E-R a G with a double E

I said I go by the unforgettable name of

The man they call the Master Gee

Well my name is known all over the world

By all the foxy ladies and the pretty girls

I'm going down in history

As the baddest rapper there ever could be

Now I'm feeling the highs and you're feeling the lows

The beat starts getting into your toes

You start popping your fingers and stomping your feet

And moving your body while you're sitting in your seat

And then damn you start doing the freak

I said damn right outta your seat

Then you throw your hands high in the air

You're rocking to the rhythm shake your derriere

Ya rockin' to the beat without a care

With the sureshot MCs for the affair

Now I'm not as tall as the rest of the gang

But I rap to the beat just the same

I got a little face and a pair of brown eyes

All I'm here to do ladies is hypnotize

Singing on an' an' on an' on on an' on

The beat don't stop until the break of dawn

Singing on an' an' on an' on on an' on

Like a hot party the pop the pop the pop dibbie dibbie

Pop the pop pop you don't dare stop

Come alive y'all gimme whatcha got

I guess by now you can take a hunch

And find that I am the baby of the bunch

But that's okay I still keep in stride

'Cos all I'm here to do is just wiggle your behind

Singin' on'n'n'on'n'on n'on

The beat don't stop until the break of dawn

Singin' on'n'n'on'n'on on'n'on

Rock rock y'all throw it on the floor

I'm gonna freak ya here I'm gonna freak you there

I'm gonna move you outta this atmosphere

'Cos I'm one of a kind and I'll shock your mind

I'll put TNT tickin' in your behind

I said one two three

Four come on girls get on the floor

A-come alive y'all a-gimme whatcha got

'Cos I'm guaranteed to make you rock

I said one two three four tell me Wonder Mike

What are you waiting for

I said a hip hop the hippie to the hippie

To the hip hip hop and you don't stop

The rock it to the bang bang the boogie

Say up jump the boogie

Dig the rhythm of the boogie the beat

Skiddlee beebop a we rock a scooby doo

And guess what America we love you

'Cause ya rock and ya roll with so much soul

You could rock 'til you're a hundred and one years old

I don't mean to brag I don't mean to boast

But we like hot butter on a breakfast toast

Rock it up uh baby bubbah

Baby bubbah to the boogie the bang bang the boogie

To the beat beat it's so unique

Come on everybody and dance to the beat

Ever went over a friends house to eat

And the food just ain't no good

I mean the macaroni's soggy the peas are mushed

And the chicken tastes like wood

So you try to play it off like you think you can

By sayin' that you're full

And then your friend says

Momma he's just being polite

He ain't finished uh uh that's bull

So your heart starts pumpin' and you think of a lie

And you say that you already ate

And your friend says

Man there's plenty of food

So you pile some more on your plate

While the stinky foods steamin' your mind starts to dreamin'

Of the moment that it's time to leave

And then you look at your plate and your chickens slowly rottin'

Into something that looks like cheese

Oh so you say

That's it I got to leave this place

I don't care what these people think

I'm just sittin' here makin' myself nauseous

With this ugly food that stinks

So you bust out the door while it's still closed

Still sick from the food you ate

And then you run to the store for quick relief

From a bottle of Kaopectate

And then you call your friend two weeks later

To see how he has been

And he says I understand about the food baby bubbah

But we're still friends

With a hip hop the hippie to the hippie

The hip hip-a hop-a you don't stop the rockin'

To the bang bang boogie say up jump the boogie
