The Sugarhill Gang - Rappers Delight (Original Version) Lyrics

Lyrics

I said, a hip hop the hippie the hippie
To the hip hip hop, a you don't stop
The rock it to the bang, bang boogie
Say up jumped the boogie

To the rhythm of the boogie, the beat
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 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 N the O V A
And the rest is F L Y
Ya see I go by the code of the doctor of the mix
And these reasons I'll tell ya why

Ya see I'm six foot one and I'm tons of fun
And I dress to at
Ya 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 wack
I got a Lincoln' continental and a sunroof Cadillac
So after school, I take a dip in the pool

Which really is on the wall
I got a color TV so I can see
The Knicks play basketball
Hear me talkin' '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 till I made it again
Ya go hotel motel whatcha gonna do today?
(Say what?)

Ya say I'm gonna get a fly girl gonna get some spankin'
Drive off in a Def Oj
Everybody go hotel, motel Holiday Inn
Say if your girl starts actin' up, then you take her friend

Master Gee, am I mellow?
It's on you so what you gonna do
Well it's on n' on n' on on n' on
The beat don't stop until the break of dawn

I said M A S T E R AG 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 goin' down in history
As the baddest rapper there could ever be
Now I'm feelin' the highs and ya feelin' the lows

The beat starts gettin' into your toes
Ya start poppin' ya fingers and stompin' your feet
And movin' your body while you're sittin' in your seat
And the damn ya start doin' the freak

I said damn, right outta your seat
Then ya throw your hands high in the air
Ya rockin' 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 dot a little face and a pair of brown eyes

All I'm here to do ladies is hypnotize
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

Like a hot buttered a pop da pop da pop dibbie dibbie
Pop da pop pop ya don't dare stop
Come alive y'all gimme what ya 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
'Cause 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 yall throw it on the floor
I'm gonna freak ya here I'm gonna freak ya there

I'm gonna move you outta this atmosphere
'Cause I'm one of a kind and ill shock your mind
I'll put tickets in your behind
I said one two three four come on girls get on the floor

A come alive, ya'll a gimme what ya got
'Cause I'm guaranteed to make you rock
I said one two three four tell me Wonder Mike what are you waitin' for?
I said a hip hop the hippie to the hippie

The hip hip hop, a you don't stop
The rock it to the bang bang boogie
Say up jumped the boogie
To the rhythm of the boogie the beat

Skiddlee beebop a we rock a Scoobie Doo
And guess what, America we love you
'Cause ya rock and ya roll with so much soul
You could rock till 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 our breakfast toast
Rock it up baby bubbah
Baby bubbah to the boogie da bang bang da boogie

To the beat beat, it's so unique
Come on everybody and dance to the beat
I said a hip hop the hippie the hippie
To the hip hip hop, a you don't stop

Rock it out baby bubbah to the boogie da bang, bang
The boogie to the boogie da beat
I said I can't wait till the end of the week
When I'm rappin' to the rhythm of a groovy beat

And attempt to raise your body heat
Just blow your mind so that you can't speak
And do a thing but a rock and shuffle your feet
And let it change up to a dance called the freak

And when ya finally do come in to your rhythmic beat
Rest a little while so ya don't get weak
I know a man named Hank
He has more rhymes than a serious bank

So come on Hank sing that song
To the rhythm of the boogie da bang, bang da bong
Well, I'm imp the dimp the ladies pimp
The women fight for my delight

But I'm the grandmaster with the three MCs
That shock the house for t
