[Yo, yo T why don't you tell them that story]
[Bout how you were back in the day, in the hip-hop day]
[Ya know what I'm saying' Tell them that story man]
We're gonna go back to the bascis of the hip-hop scene
Just a loop and some lyrics and a mic' ya know what I mean

I was just a mere child in the capital of the nation
When I heard Sugar Hill on my favorite station
I dropped all I was doin', took a train to the city
To Douglas Records and the wiz, so light was the diddy
No script for my (politee'), not a pop for my sicle
And since that day I was never ever fickle
[Ahhh yeah, that was smooth T]
[I like that story]
