Merry Dance

Uh, aye, aye, aye Wooh It was all a dream I used to read Word Up! Magazine Salt-n-Pepa and Heavy D Up in the limousine Hangin' pictures on my wall Every Saturday Rap Attack Mr. Magic, Marley Marl I let my tape rock 'til my tape pop Smokin' weed on Bambu Sippin' on Private Stock Way back When I had the red and black, lumberjack With the hat to match Remember Rappin' Duke? Duh-ha, duh-ha You never thought That hip hop would take it this far Now I'm in the limelight 'Cause I rhyme tight Time to get paid Blow up like the World Trade Born sinner, the opposite of a winner Remember when I used to eat sardines for dinner Peace to Ron G, Brucey B, Kid Capri Funkmaster Flex, Lovebug Starski, wha I'm blowin' up like you thought I would Call the crib, same number, same hood It's all good, yeah And if you don't know Now you know Oh, don't you dare look back Just keep your eyes on me I said, " You're holdin' back," She said, " Shut up and dance with me!"

This woman is my destiny She said, " Oooh, oooh, Shut up and dance with me."
