Come down, to the Record Lord Come down... [Wait a minute, y'all, wait a minute Let's get serious for a minute Y'all havin' fun, I'm havin' fun Everybody havin' fun But you know those times when you get stressed out?] Everybody has a time in their life When things doesn't always go right It just gets harder every day And it makes you wanna run away And then I wonder where it will end Can I ever be myself again? Yo, I got hopes, and I got trust And I got you here to start me up But it's been so long that I thought I lost you And I felt my life was goin' nowhere without you I feel so strong because I have you Standin' by my side, baby, baby, you just got to CHORUS Start me up, you got to start me up Start me up, you got to start me up Start me up, you got to start me up Start me up, you got to start me up Now why you lettin' them get you down? Pushin' you around until now? What's it gonna take till you realize? When you gonna open up your eyes? And how come you don't ever kiss me Or even say how much you miss me? But I got you and we got us Together we can start it up I'm fed up (fed up), word up (dead up) Got to keep my head up, don't stop or let up You're sleepin' later, time to get your bed made up Always on the loose until your dude get paid up Paid up, wait up, I'm knockin', and I'm puffin' Watch television all day doin' nothing Pushing in your liver, looks like you're ready to deliver Yo, Salt, I think it's a caesar CHORUS Well-a, well-a, w-h-h-hell-a You're caught in the rain, but you forgot your umbrella Oooo, what could you do punch-a-nella, punch-a-nella? You're trapped in a cage like an ape called Magilla And now you're ready to throw in the towel, that's kinda foul You don't give a hoot like a mute owl That's not the way I know you to be You used to be true to me, oooo-whee, what you used to do to me Shows that you got a lot to offer So brother just get offa your bu*t because it's gonna cost ya It rips me apart to see you like this Me and you might just be able to fight this so baby Start me up, you got to start me up Start me up, you got to start me up Yo, wait a minute (what up?), yo, you gotta wait a minute You didn't think that you would hear the "yo" Without the Turner Brother's in it? Huh, I pull the rank like a luitenent So when I said start me up, girl, I meant it You better set (set), set it off lady The brothers from Haiti ??? Serious, we get big, busy, and delirious Say Pep, hit me off with the lyrics Pepa ade donet So people come follow Now easy dibe gal Ca me a big mama Topin at the period An pa**in' ponda coma So poom poom breat Sav de drumma fe ya fadda Cos me ruff Ruff 'n tuff 'n Rugged 'n stuff Me might roll upa blunt 'N tek a lickle(wah) Lick shot 'n' all A uno will drop(wah) See my crutches never fail me But it's been so long that I thought I lost you And I felt my life was goin' nowhere without you I feel so strong because I have you Standin' by my side, baby, baby, you just got to CHORUS
