[Intro: R. Kelly]
Here's the old school with the new school
Here's the old school with the new school
Here's the old school with the new school
Here's the old school with the new school
[Chorus: Aaliyah]
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
[Verse 1: Aaliyah & R. Kelly]
Hey boy, won't you play for me?
Right now, mmm, give me that old school beat
I wanna hear it here (there it is), groovin' all night long
I gotta let you know you got it goin' on
Play it for me
[Chorus: Aaliyah]
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
[Verse 2: Aaliyah]
Hey boy, let me hear your song
Let it play 'til the break of dawn
Keep it right here, groovin' all night
I gotta let you know that it feels so right
Play it for me
[Chorus: Aaliyah]
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
[Verse 3: R. Kelly]
Yo, back in the days I used to listen to records
Tryna figure out how I could make my own records
Workin' in restaurants, bustin' on dishes
Hopin' that the man upstairs respect my wishes
Cigarette, lighters, Ardig wallets, I was sellin' 'em
'Till I met the B.H. and bust down a cappella to him
He said you got talent and you're goin' places
I'd heard that line before but what the heck, I signed the papers
Ever since that day I drew my hancock, it was on
And now I'm mixin' new music with the old school songs
[Chorus: Aaliyah]
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
R. Kelly, play me somethin' from the old school
