| Zigga-one, zigga-two, zigga-three, zigga-and.
|
| Mindin my business, hangin on the scene
|
| Kangaroos rolled by -- but I was clean
|
| All decked out in my tiger skin suit
|
| Hair braided up and my Jungle Brother boots
|
| Hopped on the vine and swung through the city
|
| Today’s your day, said the neighborhood gypsy
|
| Kept on jumpin to the other side of town
|
| The place where I want to go to get down
|
| Jam-packed and one green light
|
| Not a crumb or crack and I’m feelin alright
|
| Quarter after five and all systems go (uh-huh)
|
| Packin my gear, headin for the next show (yeah)
|
| Coolin on the stoop, waitin for my ride
|
| My man Keith steps to my side
|
| Chris pulls up, Uncle Sam next to him (uh-huh)
|
| I step to the curb he says, «C'mon, get in!»
|
| Grandma waved as Chris hits the gas (yeah)
|
| My hat flew off and Keith just laughed
|
| Afrika’s with Sam, holdin on to his seat
|
| As Sam does ninety to a new Bush beat
|
| Arrive to the show with no time to spare
|
| Check in the mirror run my hand through my hair
|
| Offered drinks and drugs, to get me high
|
| I put my hands in my pocket and passed them by
|
| Well uhh, ahh-ooooh — I stretched out and yawned
|
| Brushed my teeth then I carried on
|
| Got myself dressed and off to work
|
| I got there early, the boss was happy
|
| «Hey, good mornin Afrika
|
| Let me show ya the surprise that I have for ya»
|
| Pulled out a check and it read out «raise»
|
| An Ivory Coast vacation for 60 days
|
| 60 days, layin in the shade
|
| And on top of that I’m stone cold paid
|
| Packed the trunk of clothes and funk
|
| Jumped on the plane, now what’s my name?
|
| Honey child, you can’t tell me nothin
|
| Out in the Motherland for two whole months
|
| And WHOO! |
| Feelin alright
|
| Uh-huh, feelin alright.
|
| Home from the show and I’m layin back
|
| Pulled an old school tape from out my rack
|
| Tall glass of AJ and a real soft seat
|
| As Pow-Wow rocks a rhyme to Billy Squire, Big Beat
|
| Cool C recalls of the crowd sayin YEAH
|
| As many hands were thrown up in the air
|
| I’ve got a fine memory of a very fine night
|
| Can’t sleep a wink cause I’m feelin alright!
