Yeah  one two one two
 And I say
 as we let the music play
 This is dedicated to Ruddy Ray
 from all the homeboys around the way
 So def it won't get an F
 Jay receives an A for his essay
 Spins til you're dizzy
 Born to get busy
 Is he the Jam Master?
 Isn't he  or is he?
 And my name is D.M.C.
 The K I N G
 The car that I drive is called a Caddy
 The drink that I drink is called O.E.
 And I wear my glasses so I can see
 My homeboy right next to me
 His name is DJ Run
 Shoots a gift like a gun
 Slays suckers one by one
 Rather chill than kill
 cause the killing's no fun
 So together forever
 Crew be tougher than leather
 We gonna slay the bad ones
 until there are none

 [Run-D.M.C.]
 Run-D.M.C.'s award nominee
 The K-I-N-G's of all M-I-C's
 Like Hercules, with rhymes like these
 Never crackin not lackin and I still pull G's

 [Run]
 Well I ah, impress the bad, suggest the rad
 Who be less when they 'fess, against the test

 [D.M.C.]
 And I insist that this, with a flick of the wrist
 will be kid not dissed at the top of the list

 [Run-D.M.C.]
 So go a-head, and stand, check out the man
 With a clan, never ran, and in demand

 [D] So just a
 [R] Bust a rhyme
 [D] It's a must cause I'm
 [R] Funky fresh, in the flesh AND YOU KNOW THE TIME
 [D] Why don't ya, bust it son
 [R] Cause I'm number one
 [D] Just do it, pursue it
 [D] Hit it Run!

 [Run]
 Yo I'm flowin and showin rocks knots and shockin the mind
 I'm only chillin and killin, so won't you check out the rhyme
 Meetin greatin and seatin, suckers all in a row
 Crashin mashin and bashin, my name is Run, call me Joe
 Fat as ever and clever, and never second to none
 Wearin leather and better (What's your name?) DJ Run
 But in the summer's a bummer, cause I leave em at home
 Just Adidas and me, and ? and D on the phone
 Diggin eyein the crown, sellin skills by the pound
 Makin breakin and takin all of the suckers around
 Puttin fear in the heart, at the top of the chart
 Stunning gunning and funning, cause Run's running this art
 DJ's facing the rage, never losing a show
 Cause when the set is a match, then they're ready to go
 Swervin curvin deservin, the grass grow everyday
 Cause makin money ain't funny, ain't that right JMJ?

 [Run-D.M.C.]
 Full in effect, set comin correct
 Yet gainin respect, still breakin a neck

 [D.M.C.]
 I'm coolin and chillin, not foolin with illin
 On the mission it's thrillin, and I'll make a killin
 My higher desire, go high and then fly ya
 Makes me the messiah, I'll neve rretire
 I'm spankin and bankin, high rankin and skankin
 Improvising, suprising, I'm rising and flaking
 My boys on the side, the front and the back
 A Cadillac and a stack, for the King Darryl Mack
 Not workin for free, pocket full with a G
 And they always ask me, D.M.C., "How'd ya do it Dee?"
 On the go with Joe, makin pay with Jay
 All day, WHY? Cause I'm livin that way
 One wonders, WHAT? How it gets done
 I hear questions, FROM WHO? From everyone
 I'm cool.. I broke the rule
 Breakin all but laws, when I break fool
 Cause I'm the man.. that was born to rule
 every girl in the world, and make them drool
 It's easy to be, it's easy to D
 It's easy to G, it's easy to me
 Wanna know how I do it, got a goal, I pursue it
 Got the soul, to get to it, you was told, so you knew it
 The answers, from questions, I'm tellin to thee
 Cause they always ask me, D.M.C., "How'd ya do it Dee
