Basketball (Explicit) - Kurtis Blow

They're playing Basketball

We love that Basketball

They're playing Basketball

We love

Now rapping Basketball Number 1 Kurtis Blow

Basketball is my favorite sport

I like the way they dribble up

And down the court

Just like I'm the King on the microphone

So is Dr J and Moses Malone

I like Slam dunks take me to the hoop

My favorite play is the alley oop

I like the pick-and-roll I like

The give-and-go

'Cause it's Basketball uh Mister Kurtis Blow

They're playing Basketball

We love that Basketball

They're playing Basketball

We love that Basketball

I used to go to dinner and then take the girl

To see Tiny play against Earl The Pearl

And Wilt Big O and Jerry West

To play Basketball at it's very best

Basketball has always been my thing

I like Magic Bird and Bernard King

And number 33 my man Kareem

Is the center on my starting team

To yo

Watch up watch up

In yo' face now here comes the rest

Clyde Rick Barry and Pistol Pete

Now these players could never be beat

Isaiah and Iceman too

Just give 'em the ball and then you talk up too

Dantley and Wilkins are on the scene

And Ralph Sampson is really mean

Bill Russell didn't take no junk

And Darryl Dawkins got a monster dunk

To the hoop ya'll

Yes

Here I go face

Watch it

Them them them

Can't check me out oh

I did get on down

Oh yeah allright then

Back on yea

Here we go

Within your face

Swish

Oh yea

To the to the hopp yall

It's Basketball

Tell me were you in the joint

The night Wilt scored 100 points

Or when Celtics won titles back-to-back

And didn't give nobody no kind of slack

Or when doctor J sthe whole damn team

With moves that came right out of a dream

Or when Willis Reed stood so tall

Playing D with desire it's Basketball

They're playing Basketball

We love that Basketball

They're playing Basketball

We love that Basketball

Oh yeah

I get the ball and then I go and play

Like a superstar in the NBA

The forwards the centers and all the guards

The ones you see on the bubblegum cards

Me and homeboy would go one-on-one

'Cause playing the game is a lot of fun

Sit by the TV and watch 'em all

'Cause Kurtis Blow is rapping basketball

They're playing Basketball

We love that Basketball

They're playing Basketball

We love that Basketball

They're playing Basketball
