Stroke |
| This groove is so serious, yeah |
| It’s a stroke thang, baby, ah yeah |
| It’s a strokin' thang, oh baby |
| Come on |
| I never claimed to be an angel or a saint (Nah) |
| I never claimed to be the devil 'cause I ain’t |
| I never thought that I could even make it back |
| I visit hell sometimes, and all I found was crack (Lots of crack, baby) |
| I spent some time inside a penitentiary (Folsom) |
| And all I did was think and eat and watch TV |
| (And lift weights, and play cards, and talk shit) |
| When I got out, I did just what I had to do (Took care of my business) |
| Went in the studio and wrote some funk for you |
| I got up (I got up, I got up) |
| I was strokin' (Strokin', yeah baby, yeah) |
| So serious (o serious, so serious) |
| It was no joke |
| (Oh no, yeah, it wasn’t no joke, man) |
| Dance! |
| Groove ain’t no joke, y’all |
| Dance, come on! |
| Yeah, dance your ass off |
| And now I’m laying back and just taking my time |
| A little older but at least I’m doing fine |
| All of the young O.G.'s I meet from day to day |
| Tell me how they grew up on music that I play |
| But what they just don’t know is that I’m still alive (I'm still alive) |
| Players gonna play and only the strong survive ('Cause I’m groovin') |
| And if I have to take my life and write it down (What would you say?) |
| You see a man who lived his life on shaky ground (You know what?) |
| I got up (I got up) |
| I was stroke (Strokin', strokin', yeah baby) |
| So serious (So serious, so serious) |
| It was no joke |
| (It was no joke, it was no joke, it was no joke) |
| (I almost died) |
| I got up (I got up) |
| And I ain’t mad (I ain’t mad about it, no) |
| I will be back again (I'ma be back again, baby) |
| And just as bad (Just as bad, just as freaky bad, yeah) |
| Dance! |
| Dance, muthafucka! |
| Uh-huh, come on |
| I spent some time inside a penitentiary (Doing nothing) |
| And all I did was think and eat and watch TV |
| When I got out, I did just what I had to do (Took care of my business) |
| Went in the studio and wrote some funk for you |
| I got up (I got up) |
| I was stroke (I was strokin', strokin', baby) |
| It was serious (Serious, so serious) |
| It was no joke |
| (It wasn’t no joke, it wasn’t no joke, it wasn’t no joke) |
| I got up (I got up) |
| And I ain’t mad (I ain’t mad about it, oh no) |
| I will be back again (Gonna be back with you, baby) |
| And just as bad (Just as bad, just as bad) |
| Come on, get on up, on the stroke |
| Get on up, on the stroke |
| Dance! |
| Groove ain’t no joke, y’all |
| Dance, come on! |
| Yeah, dance your ass off |
| Dance! |
| Groove ain’t no joke, y’all |
| Dance, come on! |
| Yeah, dance your ass off |
