[Intro: Boyz II Men]
Doom doom doom da da, doom doom doom da da
Da yee ya yee ya yee ya da, da da, dah dah oh
Doom doom doom da da, doom doom doom da da
Da yee ya yee ya yee ya da, da da, da, ah, oh
[Interlude: Michael Bivins, Boyz II Men]
Now check this out, one day back in Philly
Four guys wanted to sing
They came up to me, I said, "Well, what's your name?
(Boyz II Men) Hey, you know what I'm sayin'?"
Then I said, "Alright, fellas
Well, let me see what you can do"
And then the smart one named Wanya said
"Yo Mike, check this out, see if this one moves you"
[Chorus: Boyz II Men]
Motownphilly back again ("Turn it up")
Doin' a little East Coast swing
Boyz II Men going off ("Turn it up")
Not too hard, not too soft
("Okay, party people in the house")
[Verse 1: Nathan Morris, Michael McCary, Boyz II Men]
It's long overdue but now
Philly is slammin'
Boyz II Men, ABC, BBD
The East Coast Family
Never skipped a beat (Nah)
While coolin' on South Street
Jet black Benz, plenty of friends
(And all thе Philly steaks you can eat)
[Pre-Chorus: Wanya Morris, Shawn Stockman, Boyz II Men]
Back in school
We usеd to dream about this every day
(Could it really happen?)
Or do dreams just fade away?
Then we started singing
And they said it sounded smooth
And we started a group and here we are
Kickin' it just for you, oh, oh
[Chorus: Boyz II Men]
Motownphilly back again
Doin' a little East Coast swing
Boyz II Men going off
Not too hard, not too soft
(Boyz, Boyz)
[Interlude: Michael Bivins, Boyz II Men]
Yo, these four new jacks is real smooth on the harmony tip
(Boyz II Men)
Nate, Mike, Shawn, and Wan'
You know the mentality (Boyz II Men)
Keep flippin' the gift
[Verse 2: Shawn Stockman, Nathan Morris, Boyz II Men]
The spotlight is on us now, watch us do this
Da da ("Turn it up"), da da da, da da da da da da ("Turn it up")
Live and direct from Phillytown
Rappin' hype and we can get down
We are ready to roll
So now the world will know that we flow
[Pre-Chorus: Wanya Morris, Shawn Stockman, Boyz II Men]
Back in school we used to dream about this every day
(Could it really happen?)
Or do dreams just fade away?
Then we started singing
And they said it sounded smooth
So we started a group and here we are
Kickin' it just for you, oh, oh
[Chorus: Boyz II Men]
Motownphilly back again
Doin' a little East Coast swing
Boyz II Men going off (Go, go)
Not too hard, not too soft
[Bridge: Boyz II Men]
("Okay, party")
("Turn it up") Boyz II Men, ("Turn it up") Boyz II Men
("Turn it up") Boyz II Men, Boyz II Men
("Turn it up") Boyz II Men, ("Turn it up") Boyz II Men ("Turn it up")
Then we started singing
And they said it sounded smooth
[Interlude]
("Turn it up")
("One, two, three") ("I gotcha")
("Here we go")
("Here we go")
("Turn it up") ("Turn it up") ("Turn it up")
("Turn it up") ("Turn it up") ("Turn it up")
("Here we go again")
