Motownphilly (Original Version)

[Intro: Michael Bivins, Boyz II Men]

It don't matter, just don't curse

Yo fellas, y'all ready to do this?

Yeah, wassup

Boyz II Men in effect

Yeah, and it's about time

Yo, let's switch this up

Boyz II Men

Boyz II Men

Boyz II Men

Boyz II Men

[Chorus]

Motownphilly back again

Doin' a little East Coast swang

Boyz II Men, going home

Not too hard, not too soft

[Verse 1: Shawn]

It's long overdue but now, Philly is slammin'

(Everybody it's) 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 the Philly steaks you can eat)

[Pre-Chorus: Wanya]

Back in school, we used to dream about this everyday

Could it really happen, or do dreams just fade away, yeah

Then we started singin' and they said it sounds smooth

Then we started a group and here we are

Kickin' it just for you, oh

[Chorus]

Motownphilly back again

Doin' a little East Coast swang

Boyz II Men, going home

Not too hard, not too soft

[Interlude: Michael Bivins]

Yo, these four new jacks is real smooth on the harmony tip

Nate, Mike, Shawn and Wan'

You know the mentality

Keep flippin' the gift

[Verse 2: Nathan]

The spotlight is on us now, watch us do this

Da-dop, da-dop, ba-dop-dop-dop-dop

Live and direct from Philly town (Rappin' hype and we can get down)

We are ready to roll

So now the world will know that we roll

[Pre-Chorus: Wanya]

Back in school, we used to dream about this everyday

Could it really happen, or do dreams just fade away, yeah

Then we started singin' and they said it sounds smooth

So we started a group and here we are

Kickin' it just for you, oh

[Chorus]

Motownphilly back again

Doin' a little East Coast swang

Boyz II Men, going home

Not too hard, not too soft

[Bridge: All]

(Then we started) Boyz II Men

(Then we started) Boyz II Men

(Then we started) Boyz II Men

(Then we started) Boyz II Men

(Then we started) Boyz II Men

(Then we started) Boyz II Men

Everybody is singin' now, it's in this town, woo-ooh

[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, "But what's your name?" (Boyz II Men)

Hey, ya know what I'm sayin'?

Then I said, "Aight fellas, well let me see what you can do"

And then the smiling one named Wanya said, "Yo Mike, check this out

See if this one moves you"

Doom doom doom da dop

Doom doom doom da dop

Da-ya-ya-ya-dop, da-dop, da-oh-oh-oh

Doom doom doom da dop

Doom doom doom da dop

Da-ya-ya-ya-dop, da-dop, da-oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]

Motownphilly back again

Doin' a little East Coast swang

Boyz II Men, going home

Not too hard, not too soft

[Outro]

Boyz II Men

Boyz II Men

Boyz II Men

Boyz II Men

Boyz, Boyz, Boyz

Boyz II Men, ABC, BBD (Mm-hmm)
