We Got Our Own Thang

(Teddy Riley)

Yo man, you ready to drop this, man? (Yeah-eee)

Well kick it for me one time..."Pass" (Drop it)(Intro/Chorus - Teddy Riley (Heavy D.)

We got our own thaaaang ("Get up and do my thang")

We got our own thaaaang (A diddley-diddley-diddley-diddely-diddely-Deee)

We got our own thaaaang

We got our own thaaaang (We've got our own thang)("Drop it")

We got our own thaaaang (A diddley-diddley-diddley-diddely-diddely-Deee)

We got our own thaaaang (A diddley-diddley-diddley-diddely-diddely-Deee)

We got our own thaaaang (A diddley-diddley-diddley-diddely-diddely-Deee)

We got our own thaaaang(Heavy D.)("HEY!")

Every-body, shake your bo-dy

We don't ill, we chill at a party

Keep a groove that's sensual, three-dimensional

Unquestionable, the lover is professional

Got a category, my own and

I'm the president

Don't be alarmed but it's holding up the resident

With my particular style, style particular

Extracurricular, smoother and trickier

Throwing on lyrics like you throw up a flapjack

You're a Chicken

McNugget, and

I'm a Big

MacBrainstorm soloist, have a

Coca-Cola and

Doing very well 'cause it took the right road to this -path!

Make the under-take, the recordbreaker

Get up on the floor, do the "Heavy D shake-a"

Started with a pow, and

I'ma end it with a

BANG (yo.).we got our own thang(Chorus)(Heavy D.)

Picture the set, girlies wet with sweat

In the corner people sittin down they've had as muchas they could possibly get;

Meanwhile

I'm lampin, feeling like a champ and

Push up on a cutie, phone digits

I'm stampin (*echoes*)

The place was packed though, stuffed like an

OreoEverybody broke for a

Heavy D. video

Pumpin in stereo, people said, "Here we go"

A cutie down in front said, "Heavy, you're my hero"

Understand this, before you make a comment

Because there's always a meaning, in a

Heavy D. statement

In this life,

I strive for improvement

Be your own guide, follow your own movement (*echoes*)

Love is a legend, me

I'm legendary at it

Flippin on the mike makes me a rappin acrobat

Don't try to swing, because you didn't even

HANG (yo...).we got our own thang(Chorus)(DJ scratches "Heavy D.")(Heavy D.)

Original, individual, smooth criminal

Dance a lot, dance a little, shuffle to the middle

Don't clock anybody, let 'em all clock you

Don't be down with anybody, let 'em all be down with you

Stay self-managed, self-kept, self-taught

Be your own man, don't be borrowed, don't be bought

Started with a pow and

I'ma end it with a

BANG (yo...).we've got our own thang(Chorus 'til fade)
