Lyrics

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?
Word up
