Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Doom-doom-doom-doom-da-da, doom-doom-doom-doom-da-da
Da-ya-ya-yada, da-da, da-ah-oh
Doom-doom-doom-doom-da-da, doom-doom-doom-doom-da-da
Da-ya-ya-yada, da-da, da-ah-oh
[Verse 2]
Now check this out, one day back in Philly
Four guys wanted to sing
They came up to me, I said, "Well, what's your name?"
(Boyz II Men) Hey, you know what I'm sayin'?
Then I said, "Aight fellas, well, let me see what you can do"
And then a smile when Wanya said, "Yo Mike, check this out
See if this one moves you"
[Verse 3]
Motownphilly back again (Turn it up) (Go, go)
Doin' a little east coast swing (Go, go)
Boyz II Men goin' off (Turn it up) (Go, go)
Not too hard, not too soft (Go, go)
[Verse 4]
K, party people in the house
[Verse 5]
It's long overdue, but now, Philly is slammin'
Boyz II Men, ABC, BBD
The east coast family
Never skipped a beat, no
While cooling on South Street
Jet-black Benz, plenty of friends
And all the Philly steaks you can eat
[Verse 6]
Back in school we used to dream about this every day
Could it really happen?
Or do dreams just fade away? Yeah
Then we started singing, then they said it sound smooth
Then we started a group and here we are
Kickin' it just for you, oh
[Verse 7]
Motownphilly back again
Doin' a little east coast swing
Boyz II Men goin' off
Not too hard, not too soft
[Verse 8]
Boyz, boyz
[Verse 9]
Yo, these four new jacks is real
Smooth on the harmony tip (Boyz II Men)
Nate, Mike, Shawn and Wan
You know the mentality (Boyz II Men)
Keep flippin' the gift
[Verse 10]
The spotlight is on us now, watch us do this
Da-da, da-ah, ba-dop-bop-ba-ba-dop (Turn it up, turn it up)
Live and direct from Philly-town
We're rappin' hype and we can get down
We are ready to roll, so now the world will know that we were
[Verse 11]
Back in school we used to dream about this every day
Could it really happen?
Or do dreams just fade away? Yeah
Then we started singing, then they said it sound smooth
So we started a group and here we are
Kickin' it just for you, oh
[Verse 12]
Motownphilly back again
Doin' a little east coast swing
Boyz II Men, goin' off (Go, go)
Not too hard, not too soft
[Verse 13]
Okay, punk
(Turn it up) (Everybody, it's) Boyz II Men
(Turn it up) (Everybody, it's) Boyz II Men
(Ya don't wanna party till you're dead)
(Turn it up) (Everybody, it's) Boyz II Men
(Everybody, it's) Boyz II Men
(Turn it up) (Everybody, it's) Boyz II Men
(Turn it up) (Everybody, it's) Boyz II Men
(Ya don't wanna party till you're dead)
(Turn it up) (Everybody, it's) Okay
Then we started singing, then they said it sound smooth
[Verse 14]
Door-Dory was plain bored
Turn it up
One, two, three
[Verse 15]
Here we go
Here we go
Turn it up
Turn it up
Turn it up
Dory was plain bored
Turn it up
Turn it up
Turn it up
Here we go again
[Verse 16]
