Because
DJ's Brothers Lyrics

Because I got it like that, uh huh
I possess something in a specific manner, expressing affirmation

Because I got it like that, wooh, uh huh
I have something in a particular way, indicating excitement and affirmation

Because I got it like that
The reason behind my possession of something in a specific manner

Like how?
In what manner or fashion do I possess it?

Like that
In exactly the same way as previously mentioned

Dancin' on the dance floor
Engaging in dance movements on the designated area for dancing

Girl, it's you that I adore
I hold great affection for you, female individual

Step on stage, you scream for more
As you enter the performance area, the audience passionately demands additional entertainment

Afrika got rhymes galore
Afrika possesses an abundant supply of compelling and skillful verses

Snap my fingers, make you mine
With a simple gesture of snapping my fingers, I claim ownership of your affections

If not, I'll snap a second time
To reinforce my desire, I will repeat the snapping action

After that, I guarantee
Following this, it is certain

You will be standing next to me
You will find yourself positioned beside me

Left or right side, take your pick
Choose either the left or the right position

But girl, you've got to make it quick
However, female individual, you must make a prompt decision

Baby, baby, baby
Endearing term, repeated multiple times

I know I drive you crazy
I am aware that I have a maddening effect on you

MC's know me as Mike G
Other emcees are familiar with me under the name Mike G

Girls hold on to me tightly
Females firmly grasp me

Warm personality
I possess a friendly and inviting demeanor

That's why they get close to me
This is the reason they choose to be in close proximity to me

Try their best to drive me wild
They exert effort to provoke a wild reaction from me

Say they want to bear my child
They claim to desire to have a child with me

I go away, they say, "come back"
Once I distance myself, they express the wish for my return

Why? Because I got it like that
The reason is that I possess something in a specific manner

No problem, (why?) because I got it like that
There is no issue or difficulty since I possess something in a specific manner

A Baby Bam beat and an African rap
A musical composition by Baby Bam and a rap style originating from Africa

My partner by my side, Sammy be is on the cut
Sammy Be, my collaborator, is present and responsible for manipulating the vinyl records

Your DJs chill and chill, but hey, so what?
Although other DJs relax and enjoy themselves, it is of no consequence

Nuggets in my pocket, wine in my hand
I possess chicken nuggets in my pocket and hold a glass of wine

I got it like that, but you still don't understand
I possess something in a specific manner, although you remain unaware

It comes to me natural, it comes to me easy
I effortlessly acquire and assimilate these attributes

I just lay back and let the big beat lead me
I relax and allow the powerful rhythm to guide my actions

I never work a day in my life
I do not engage in laborious tasks throughout my existence

Single jungle brother, no kids, no wife
As a solitary member of the Jungle Brothers, I am unmarried and childless

100,000 rhymes from one band, that's many
The musical group has an extensive repertoire of 100,000 lyrical compositions

But back where I come from, they ain't worth a penny
However, in my place of origin, these compositions hold no value

You've got a lot of talent, but you fail to see
You possess a considerable amount of skill, but you are unable to recognize it

You paid for yours, I got mine for free
You acquired your abilities through payment, while I obtained mine without cost

Play in the rain and don't get wet
Engage in activities under rainfall without becoming moist

Walk through the desert and don't even sweat
Traverse a desert environment without perspiring

Play in the snow and don't get cold
Participate in snowy activities without experiencing coldness

I'm just a cool young brother who looks kinda old
Despite my youthful appearance, I possess an aura of maturity

Love around the world schoolin' the sound
I spread love and musical knowledge globally

If I could bet a crowd and get caught us loud
If I wagered on a large gathering and resulted in lively behavior

I've got ladies uptown and money on the floor
I have female companions in the fashionable part of the city and currency scattered on the ground

There's not a thing in the world that I'm askin' for
I am not desiring anything in the world

Wooh, uh huh
Expressing excitement and affirmation

I ain't jokin', I ain't playin', it's just my brother
I am not joking or engaging in playful behavior, it is simply the nature of my sibling

I got it like that (ah ha ha)
I possess something in a specific manner, expressing amusement

Used to be a player, couldn't be trusted
In the past, I presented myself as a seductive individual, lacking reliability

But still in all, I never got busted
However, ultimately, I managed to avoid negative consequences

Knowin' every part of New York City
Familiar with every area of New York City

I thought it was fun, it used to look witty
I found it enjoyable and clever at that time

I had it all spread out, even one next door
I had numerous connections, including one in close proximity

I had it like that, so what ya askin' for?
I possessed something in a specific manner, therefore why are you inquiring about it?

4 to 5, you see, was my minimum
Four to five individuals, it was the lowest number I interacted with

And every day, I used to go and get with 'em
Daily, I would meet and engage with those individuals

One for every hour on the hour
One for each hour, consistently and punctually

One on the way while I was in the shower
Another individual on the way while I was bathing

It sounds kinda crazy, it sounds kinda bugged
It may appear unconventional or peculiar

But you see, Afrika was the one they loved
However, it was evident that I, Afrika, was the individual they adored

So you see, it got to a point where they didn't care
Therefore, it reached a stage where they no longer esteemed it important

They didn't want to give me up, so they agreed to share
They were unwilling to relinquish their connection with me, hence they opted for a shared arrangement

I hear you, brother, word
I understand and acknowledge your statement, sibling

Man, you's one baaaaaad jungle brother
My goodness, you are an exceptionally talented member of the Jungle Brothers

Like that
In that specific manner

Uh, wooh, Sammy be, be, you got it like that
Uh, expressing excitement, Sammy Be, you possess something in a specific manner

I know you got it like that
I am aware that you possess something in a specific manner
