And in This Corner... lyrics

Aw man!
Put that ol' dumb horn down
Hey, Jazzy
Jazzy
Show this boy what some real music 'posed to sound like
He-he-ha!

( *drums and horns set in* )
1-2-3-4

( *Jazzy Jeff starts scratching* )
(Don't stop the rock)

Now that's a record!
Now that's a record!

Go Jazzy, go Jazzy, go

I want to be remembered for the songs that I sing

2 old men:

hey...hey Leroy...Leroy

yeah

did you hear about that boy Mike Tyson?

Mike...Mike Tyson he's the boy

that played football from Montreal ain't he?

no no you old coop, he a...he a boxer man

yeah

let me tell ya I went to his fight a couple months ago.

I seen him hit this boy, and he hit the boy so hard

his head flew off into the eigtheenth row

(This is how it goes)

Give me your attention, stop what you're doin and listen up
Because my partner in rhyme is about to tear it up
Jeff, is if someone said that your beats don't excite
And that your cuts were wack, what would you say? (Yeah, right!)
Jeff's about to give an incredible display
And unequivocally prove that he's the best deejay

[ throughout the song the first phrase is rhythmically
triggered off while the second one is being scratched ]

(I continued to rock while
Jeff was on the beat box)

(Hip-hop)

There was a party the other day, around my way
They asked if me and Jeff would play, we said okay
We dipped out to get the hip-hop apparatus
Came back with the posse in full effect status

One one

Grand number
Grand numero
Court is now in session
Here ye here ye all listen close
To the man the myth the fresh the prince the utmost
I got a brain like a cup and rhymes I pour em spectrum to the astra dome to bore em
All the way to wembley

(Get down)

[ VERSE 1: The Fresh Prince ]
I was.. cruisin down the avenue, early one Friday
When I saw what I thought was a lady walkin my way
I turned my back to ?????????????
And I said, "Hm-hm, excuse me," and she walked past
She was about 5'6", or maybe six and a half
With a body like a goddess, man, this girl was bad!
Tight leather pants that fit like a drum

[ The Fresh Prince on the phone ]
Hello?
Yeah, this is Prince, who's this?
Yo, what's up baby, how you doin?
Oh, I'm tryin to see you on a personal tip
You know that, right?
Heh
Ah come on
You been tellin me that for years
You're a little bit older than me, you know?
You're 30 years old and I'm 20
Age ain't nothin but a number, baby
Hey look, I'm young but I'm real strong
Heh

I was in a club, one Friday.
A lovely Lady comes walking my way.
She walked up and she said hello.
I said hi, my names Joe.
I was lyin', so was she.
She said her name was Donna,
But her shirt said Marie.
Once you get to know me,
you'll never forget me.
I said why, then she bit me.

Ouch!
That didn't hurt.
Kinda nicked me,
but she ripped my shirt.
At that point I fell asleep.

[ INTRO: The Fresh Prince acting as 'The Reverend' ]
Now brothers and sisters
There comes a time in your life you've got to get up and get busy
Can I get a witness?
(Yes, brother, yes!)
Now I don't know if you're prepared to embark upon this journey
But the time is running out
Brother Jazzy, break it down

[ VERSE 1: The Fresh Prince ]
