Keep It Street

[Intro]

Yo, R. Kelly, what you going to do with this mix, man?

Yo man, I'm just going to keep it street

Yo, R. Kelly

It's time to give the homies something to dance to

You know what I'm saying?

Push up on one of those cute hotties

Yo, this is what we are going to do

I'ma to take this track

Whip us up one of those nice gorilla beats

Yeah, something like that

I'm going to tell you the real true story

About back in the day

When I was trying to get where I am

Right now

Whip us up a nice intro

[Verse 1]

It's 1990 and the R is on the scene

Yeah, filling up a funky rhythm

Strictly for the streets, you know what I mean

It took some time but here I am now with a swing

Yo R. Kelly, tell them what they told you

[Pre-Chorus]

All we really need is a funky groove

With a street swing, with a little street swing

Something you can get with

Bam, here it is, keepin' it street

[Chorus]

Let's keep it street

Let's keep it street

Let's keep it street

Let's keep it street

Yo, bring that beat back

[Verse 2]

Yo back in the days

The girlies turned me down like collars

Yeah, but now they're popping like "Orville Redenbacher"

And now they wanna holler

That's when I decided to whip up a funky track

I took it door to door and this is what they said

[Pre-Chorus]

All we really need from you is a funky groove

With a street swing, with a little street swing

Something you can get with

Bam, here it is, keeping it street

[Chorus]

Let's keep it street

Let's keep it street

Let's keep it street

Let's keep it street

Yo, bring that beat back

[Pre-Chorus]

All we really need from you is a funky, funky groove

With a street swing, with a little street swing

Something you can get into

Bam, here it is, keeping it street

[Chorus]

Let's keep it street

Let's keep it street

Let's keep it street

Let's keep it street

Yo, bring that beat back
