Lyrics

ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Oh that's the way uh-huh uh-huh I like it uh-huh uh-huh
That's the way uh-huh uh-huh I like it uh-huh uh-huh

Brothers are stealin' and illin' to meet women
And to a younger life that stuff is a killin'.
So what do they do? They gather up a crew,
Go out and steal and rob instead of keepin' a job
Now, your mother tried to bring you up better than that.
The same way she loved you, you loved her right back.
So now you think you're grown, and you argue alot
Over money you got stealin' stuff from the block.

That's the way uh-huh uh-huh I like it uh-huh uh-huh
That's the way uh-huh uh-huh I like it uh-huh uh-huh
That's the way uh-huh uh-huh I like it uh-huh uh-huh
That's the way uh-huh uh-huh I like it uh-huh uh-huh

ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh (check it out)
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh (check it out)
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
