WYCLEF JEAN - Warrior's Anthem lyrics
rate me<br>
<i>[Wyclef Jean:]</i><br />
Yo I'm happy to be in the South<br />
To set off my tour in the countryside<br />
But who better to set it off for me than this man right here<br />
<br />
<i>[Kenny Rogers:]</i><br />
Yo this Kenny Rogers chillin on the country side<br />
With men like Wyclef (uh-huh) Jerry Wonder (uh-huh)<br />
Big Jack (mm-hmm) Big Beast (mm-hmm)<br />
And we gon' do something like this for you<br />
<br />
You got to know when to hold 'em (YEAH, YEAH!)<br />
Know when to fold 'em (DJ's, DJ's!)<br />
Know when to walk away (HIP-HOP, HIP-HOP!)<br />
Know when to run... (YEAH, YEAH!)<br />
You got to count your dub-plates (GHETTO, GHETTO, GHETTO)<br />
Before you touch the turntables (ALL HOODS!)<br />
Cause if you run out of big tunes<br />
That means your sound is done (Y'ALL READY?)<br />
<br />
<i>[Chorus: Kenny Rogers]</i><br />
You got to know when to hold 'em<br />
Know when to fold 'em (soundbwoys)<br />
Know when to walk away<br />
Know when to run... (hey, hey, hey, hey...)<br />
You got to count your dub-plates<br />
Before you touch the turntables (DJ's)<br />
Cause if you run out of big tunes<br />
That means your sound is done<br />
<br />
<i>[Pharoahe Monch:]</i><br />
Get the hell up!<br />
'Clef said, get the hell up!<br />
Now throw your hands in the sky (BO! BO! BO! BO!)<br />
Brooklyn in the back shootin craps y'all whassup?<br />
Ladies; lookin hot and pretty<br />
Doin your thing in the club high saditty<br />
WORLDWIDE - the gritty committee pity the fool that<br />
Act {shitty} in the midst of the calm, the witty<br />
(You got to know when to hold 'em...)<br />
Y'all know the name!<br />
Same assassin from before, but the beat just changed a little<br />
(?) who flip flows<br />
That got women in they thongs gettin on but not Sisqo<br />
Select your squad team and your itch<br />
Bey know my flow muy caliente, fuego<br />
No disrespect to soundbwoy, but you better step away from me<br />
Easily defeat measley MC's and tease you<br />
Ease back squeeze two in your wig and breeze through<br />
<br />
<i>[Chorus]</i><br />
<br />
<i>[Wyclef Jean:]</i><br />
C'mon, c'mon<br />
(Get the hell up!)<br />
Soundbwoys ('Clef said, get the hell up!)<br />
(Now throw your hands in the sky) Yo<br />
This combination gon' bust from Brooklyn to Shanghai<br />
Feel the boogie boogie Henny got me tipsy tipsy<br />
Kenny Rogers and Pharoahe Monch? No way, this can't be<br />
48 tracks, country meets rap<br />
Put this on full blast, I'm about to break all formats<br />
My destiny is to lead while y'all follow<br />
This is (Showtime) and I'm (Live at the Apollo)<br />
<br />
<i>[Chorus 2: Kenny Rogers & Wyclef]</i><br />
You got to know when to hold 'em (soundbwoys)<br />
Know when to fold 'em (emcees)<br />
Know when to walk away (yeah, yeah, yeah...)<br />
Know when to run<br />
You got to count your dub-plates<br />
Before you touch the turntables (DJ's)<br />
Cause if you run out of big tunes<br />
That means your sound is done
