Basketball Jones

Текст песни Barry White & Chris Rock - Basketball Jones

[Intro: Chris Rock]
Basketball Jones
I got a Basketball Jones
I got a Basketball Jones, oh baby
Oh, oh, oh!

[Verse 1: Barry White and Chris Rock]
Jones
Hey, that's Barry White!
An obsession, a burning desire
Barry, you want some chicken?
The undeniable passion
Aw, you tryin' all that sexy stuff!
The love, of someone or some thing
Y'know you want some chicken?
Yes, he was a victim of a Basketball Jones
In fact, I was a baddest dribbler in the whole world
Then one day, his mother bought him a basketball
And I love that basketball! I took that basketball everywhere I went!
You know what? That basketball was like a basketball to me!
C'mon, you cheerleaders!

[Chorus 1: Barry White, Chris Rock and Cheerleaders]
Basketball Jones
I got a Basketball Jones (happily)
I got a Basketball Jones, oh baby, oh
Wait a minute, y'all not En Vogue!
Where the hell is En Vogue?
I got a Basketball Jones
Somebody told me En Vogue was gonna be here
I guess y'all'll do (Yeah)
I got a Basketball Jones, oh baby, oh
So what y'all doin' after the game? C'mon!

[Verse 1: Barry White and Chris Rock]
His basketball was like a member of his own family
In fact, better looking than my brother Tony
Didn't owe me money, and didn't piss in a bed!
And after the game, I always took a shower wit' my basketball
Every now and then, the basketball gonna pinch my butt
But I didn't mind, cause my and my basketball had good, clean fun
See I am a victim of a Basketball Jones, I'll take my basketball everywhere
I'll even put my basketball under the pillow
Maybe that's why you couldn't sleep at night

[Chorus 2: Barry White, Chris Rock and Cheerleaders]
Basketball Jones
Sing it! Sing it!
I got a Basketball Jones
Sing it like ya wanna! (Yeah)
I got a Basketball Jones, oh baby, oh
Eh-eh-eh, act like Puffy's in the audience

[Verse 2: Barry White and Chris Rock]
Baby, baby, baby, it's a craving
