Above The Rim

(album: Hootie Mack - 1993)

Rough...
Rough...

Yeah, jump around, grab a rebound and pump the sound
Big Ron, big man's in town
Razzle, razzle, yo and I dazzle
Or should I say dunk? Dunk like Jordan, I
Pump, pump, double pump, double platinum
Aiyyo, I'm takin 'em to the hoop until it's time for to go
So I suggest you sit back and check my flow, y'know
Give it up, pass it up, I'm 'bout to score
Three point play, can't you hear the crowd roar?
It's over, it's over, time's up, aiyyo I'm outtie
Picked up, macked up, got my "Ghetto Booty"
And swung with the swangers on the basketball court
The fellas jock the hoochies with the tight booty shorts
Take no shorts from bass, to bassline
BBD's droppin hits and fun-ky rhymes

They be frontin in their cars, they be frontin in their Jeeps
Above the rim, above the rim
They be frontin in their cars, they be frontin in their Jeeps
Above the rim, above the rim
They be frontin in their cars, they be frontin in their Jeeps
Above the rim, above the rim
They be frontin in their cars, they be frontin in their Jeeps
Above the rim, above the rim

I got my balls in my nets, flipside sweats
(Breakdown! Breakdown!) Yes! The defense gets
The B-I-V, goin swish up the passway (oooh-wheeeee!)
Hoops and flips, money grips up the fast way
Trick tricky, brothers can't stick me
Defeat you on the ball if you try to get with me
I tips with the c-notes, the visitor got troops
And reps from the honeys, after game I knock boots
So keep your eyes glued to the kid with the Spalding
It's like chess, the blackboard is callin
Smooth moves, ya lose, so who's next?
No layup, so pay up, ya man lost his bets
Bell Biv DeVoe comin strong in ya projects
Stright from O-P, the 40, the hootie
I pump the ball like the booty (her hips horray!)
So peace to nine-trey to Tim Hardaway

They be frontin in their cars, they be frontin in their Jeeps
Above the rim, above the rim
They be frontin in their cars, they be frontin in their Jeeps
Above the rim, above the rim
They be frontin in their cars, they be frontin in their Jeeps
Above the rim, above the rim
They be frontin in their cars, they be frontin in their Jeeps
Above the rim, above the rim

Yeah, my big man slaps the glass
I run the point, I wax ya ass
"Above the Rim", B.B.D., funky

You can't hang, we're livin life above the rim
You can't hang, we're livin life above the rim
You can't hang, you can't hang
(Above the rim, above the rim)
You can't hang, we're livin life above the rim
You can't hang, we're livin life above the rim
You can't hang, you can't hang
Living life above the riiiiim, yeaaah...

Above the rim, above the rim...

They be frontin in their cars, they be frontin in their Jeeps
Above the rim, above the rim
They be frontin in their cars, they be frontin in their Jeeps
Above the rim, above the rim
They be frontin in their cars, they be frontin in their Jeeps
Above the rim, above the rim
They be frontin in their cars, they be frontin in their Jeeps
Above the rim, above the rim
