Basketball
Bow Wow feat. Jermaine Dupri Fabolous & Fundisha Lyrics

They're playing basketball (uh all around the world)
Basketball is being played all around the world.

We love that basketball (uh to the beat y'all)
We enjoy basketball and its rhythm.

They're playing basketball (let's go, all around the world)
Basketball is being played all around the world, let's partake.

We love that basketball (this is so so dat)
We really love basketball.

They're playing basketball (to the beat y'all)
Basketball is being played rhythmically.

We love that basketball (yeah)
We love basketball.

They're playing basketball (uh huh, uh huh)
Basketball is being played, uh huh.

We love that basketball
We love basketball.

Yeah, now basketball is my favorite sport
Basketball is my favorite sport.

I like the way they dribble up and down the court
I enjoy watching the players dribble.

I keep it so fresh on the microphone
I have a fresh style of rapping.

I like no interruption when the game is on
I prefer to watch the game without any disturbances.

I like slam dunk, to take me to the hoop
I enjoy slam dunks that take me close to the hoop.

My favorite play is the alley-oop
My preferred play is the alley-oop.

I like the pick-and-roll
I enjoy the pick-and-roll play.

I like the give-and-go
I enjoy the give-and-go play.

In this basketball, Bow Wow, let's go
In this basketball game, let's give it our best, Bow Wow.

I got the rock in my hands
I have control of the basketball.

Ain't no telling what I'm gonna do with it
I could do anything with the ball.

When I got possession I'ma act a fool with it
When I have the ball, I act crazy.

I might cross you up fake one way
I might trick the opponent by faking one direction.

Turn around and hit you with the MJ fade away
I might turn back and hit the famous Michael Jordan fade away shot.

I'm throwing dime passes like J. Kidd
I am making excellent and precise passes like Jason Kidd.

Taking cats to the rack
I am taking opponents to the basket.

And I'm dunking on them like T. Mac
I am showing off my dunking skills like Tracy McGrady.

When I'm in the paint I play with that Alonzo style
I play in the paint with the style of Alonzo Mourning.

I'm like Darius 'cause I can shoot two miles
I am like Darius Miles because I can shoot from long range.

Don't too many players get offers like me
Not many players receive offers like me.

Back and forth, I'll likely
I am likely to go back and forth.

Shake the checks off your Nikes
I am so good I might make your shoes fall off.

They almost had me in a suit at the draft
I was almost selected in the draft.

'Cause it look like a free throw when I be shooting from half
It looks like a free throw when I shoot from half-court.

The first step like Iverson, blow past you
My first step is like Allen Iverson, I can quickly get past you.

Usually nothing but net, but I can go blast too
My shots usually go in without hitting the rim, but I can also make a powerful shot.

When I'm in the paint the defense so shook
The defense gets scared when I am in the paint.

They don't know if I'ma put up a slow hook, or dish off a no-look
The defense doesn't know if I will make a slow hook shot or pass with a no-look.

To drive the lane would be dumb, though
It would be foolish to drive into the lane where I am.

'Cause I send it back at you then give you the finger like Mutumbo
If you try to score against me, I will block you and gesture like Dikembe Mutombo.

Shorty, over the summer, you might've boosted an inch
Shorty, you might have grown taller over the summer.

But as long as Fabolous is playing, get used to the bench
However, as long as Fabolous is playing, you will be benched.

See my game consist of a whole lotta
My game consists of many moves.

Moves you would think I learned from the Harlem Globetrotters
My moves are so good that it seems like I learned them from the Harlem Globetrotters.

J.D. gon' lead us to a ring
Jermaine Dupri will lead us to victory.

Fab and Bow Wow the only players that make cheerleaders want to sing
Only Fab and Bow Wow can make cheerleaders want to sing.

Now, now, now, now tell me were you in the joint
Tell me, were you there when it all happened?

The night MJ scored sixty three points
The night Michael Jordan scored sixty-three points.

When the Lakers won titles back-to-back
When the Lakers won consecutive titles.

Didn't give nobody, no kind of slack
They didn't give any slack to their opponents.

When Vince Carter gave and stuck his arm in the rim
When Vince Carter dunked and put his arm through the rim.

Everybody went crazy in the whole damn gym
Everyone in the gym went crazy.

Dikembe Mutombo standing tall
Dikembe Mutombo playing great defense.

Playing D with desire, it's basketball
Playing defense with passion, that's basketball.

They're playing basketball (put it up, put it up, put it up now)
They are playing basketball, let's score now.

We love that basketball (put it up, put it up, put it up now)
We really love basketball, let's score now.

They're playing basketball (yeah)
They are playing basketball, yeah!

We love that basketball (uh huh, uh huh)
We really love basketball, uh huh, uh huh.

They're playing basketball (all around the world)
Basketball is being played all around the world.

We love that basketball (put it up, put it up, put it up now)
We really love basketball, let's score now.

They're playing basketball
Basketball is being played.

We love that basketball
We really love basketball.
