La-Di-da-Di (Live 1984)

Because y'all been down with the Get Fresh Crew for so long

I think that it is only right for me to give you

The untold story behind La-Di-Da-Di

First of all, I want you to know

That this La-Di-Da-Di that you're listening to

Is exclusive, it was done in 1984

And me and Rick got together to take MC contests

'Cause that's when the MC wasn't the rapper

And we would go around taking contests

And this is when I first brought Rick into the Get Fresh Crew

And this is when we first did it

I hope you enjoy it

And it's exclusive

And it's for you

Alright, Doug

One

One, two

Y'all ready or what?

Here we go

La-di-da-di

La-di-da-di

La-di

La-di

You know what

Bust it

La-di-da-di, we like to party

We don't cause trouble, we don't bother nobody

We're just some men that's on the mic

And when we rock upon the mic

We rock the mic (Right)

For all of y'all keepin' y'all in health

Just to see ya smile and enjoy yourself

'Cause it's cool, you cause a cozy condition

And that we create, 'cause that is our mission

So listen to what we say

Because this type of shit, it happens every day

I woke up around ten o'clock in the mornin'

Gave myself a stretch, a mornin' yawn and

Went to the bathroom to wash up

I had some soap on my face, and my hand upon a cup

I said, "Um, mirror, mirror on the wall

Who is the top choice of them all?”

There was a rumble dumble

Five minutes it lasted

The mirror said

"You are, you conceited bastard!"

Yeah, that's true, that's why we never have no beef

So then I washed off the soap, and brushed the gold teeth

Used Oil of Olay ’cause my skin gets pale

And then I got the files

For my fingernails

Due to the night and on my behalf

I put the bubbles in the tub so I could have a bubble bath

Clean, dry was my body and hair

I threw on my brand new Gucci underwear

For all the girls I might take home

I got the Johnson's Baby Powder, the Polo cologne

Fresh dressed just like a millions bucks

Threw on the Bally shoes and the dark black socks

Stepped out my house, stopped short, oh no

I went back in, I forgots the Kangol

And then I dilly (Dally)

I ran through a (Alley)

I bumped into my old girl (Sally)

From the (Valley)

This is a girl plays hard to get

So I said, "What's wrong?" She looked upset

She said, um, "It's all because of you

I'm feeling sad and blue

You went away and now, my life is filled with rainy days

And I love you so, how much you'll never know

’Cause you took your love away from me”

Ooh

Now what was I to do?

She’s crying over me and she was feeling blue

I said, um, "Don't cry, dry your eye

Here comes your mother with those two little guys"

Her mean mother stepped up, she said to me ("Hi!")

Looked Sally in the face and she cold decked her in the (Eye)

Punched her in the belly and stepped on her feet

Slammed the child on the hard concrete

The bitch was strong, the kids was gone

And something was wrong I said ,"What is going on?"

I tried to break it up I said, stop it, leave her

She said, "If I can't have you she can't either"

She grabbed me closely by my socks

I broke the hell out like I had the chicken pox

But she gave chase, she caught up quick

She put a finger in the face of MC Rick

She said, “Why don’t you give me a play

So we can go cruising in my OJ?

And if you give me that OK

I'll give you all my love today

Ricky, Ricky, Ricky, can’t you see

Somehow your words just hypnotize me

And I just love your jazzy ways

Oh, MC Rick, my love is here to stay"

And on, and on, and on, she kept on

The bitch been around before my mother's born

I said, "Cheer up!" I gave her a kiss

I said, "You can't have me, I'm too young for you miss"

She says, "No, you're not, " then she starts crying

I says, "I'm nineteen," she said, "Stop lying!"

I says, "I am, go ask my mother

And with that wrinkled ass pussy of yours, I could not possibly be your lover"

You know what I'm saying?
