Coast to Coast by Word of Mouth Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 1986

(Intro)
Listen up!
Listen up!
Listen up!
Listen up!

Listen up!
Right about today, in the place to stay
And we are (Word of Mouth!)
I am the KMC
And I'm the ? the original G
We're down with DJ Cheese
And we're going coast to coast

(cutting and scratching)

Cheese all the way! cheese all the way!

Coast to coast, we're your MC host
And everybody knows we rock the most
Coast to coast, from the Pacific to Atlantic
Cheese rocks the homeboys
We make the girlies get frantic
(cutting and scratching)

Yeah, we came to amaze
Put you in a daze
And we won't quit 'til we get paid
We do our jobs and that's turn it out
Just like a hot water heater, we heat the house
We don't hesitate to stimulate
Anybody in the place because we're great
We'll make you cheer so have no fear
And everything we say will stick to the ear
We know we're all that when we rock a rap
And any beat that we hear we will attack
Because we're too hot to touch, too much to clutch
Too squirmy to squeeze, you know we're aiming to please
And on the mic we're down with DJ Cheese
Huh!

(cutting and scratching)

Somebody say heeey!
Say hooooo!
Heey! (Hey!) Hoo! (Ho!)
Whooo!

Coast to coast, we're your MC host
And everybody knows we rock the most
Coast to coast, from the Pacific to Atlantic
Cheese rocks the homeboys
We make the girlies get frantic
(cutting and scratching)

Yes! We have traveled from town to town
And every place that we play
We always throw down
That's why we keep you going 'til your body gets sore
By the time we're through, you yell for more
Cold rockin' a house, it's KMC
And while the beat is rockin' I must be
To keep you grooving, have your body moving
Things that I say (say what!), they will be soothing
While the blood flows, all through my veins
The ? starts up (up!) to my brain
So I can demonstrate (I can dig it!) on the M-I-C
What really makes me the one to be
Just the kind of MC that can hear the most
Guarantee to hear me rockin' (from coast to coast!)
'Cause any time I do a job, I do it correct
To make sure the KMC, ya never forget
That I speak it and seek it and sure to please
Most definitely from sea to sea
And I have qualities I will involve
To rock this place 'til I get hoarse
With G on the side and Cheese in the back
We're going coast to coast and it's like that!
(cutting and scratching)

Coast to coast, we're your MC host
And everybody knows we rock the most
Coast to coast, from the Pacific to Atlantic
Cheese rocks the homeboys
We make the girlies get frantic

C'mon everybody let's all get down!
C'mon everybody let's all get down!

It's like this y'all
I'm going coast to coast
To take it there (and back!)
Plus give you the most
(So get it on!), with me, Original G
And from coast to coast you'll hear my R-A-P
Comin' of my mouth through the microphone
Through the woofers on the speakers
They're keeping ya home (?)
Through your walkman set, (your 8-track deck)
Your neighborhood jail or discotheque
It doesn't matter where ya hear me, New York L.A
Cuz I rock the house anywhere that I play
Got Cheese on the set, to back me up
Sure enough you move your butt
When you hear him cut
It's like a magnet, we pull and do attract
The homeboys and girls when it's time to rap
On the East, (we're rockin' hard!) cuz it's where I'm from
On the West, (sounds def!) cuz it's under the sun
And in the South, (wuh-oh!) we just rock the house
And in the North, (of course!) you know we go off
And you know, (you know it!), you-you know it
Cuz we back what we talk, we're down to show it
Somebody say heeey! (Heey!) Say hooo (Hooo!)
Heey! (Heey!) Hooo (Hooo!) Hey! Hey! Ho! Ho! (Whooo!)
