Rude Boys Back In Town

So unique

Whoa whoa whoa whoa

Whoa whoa whoa whoa

The rude boys back in town

The rude boys back in town

I tell ya that

The rude boys back in town

The rude boys back in town

See I was walking down the street about a quarter to four

It was early in the morning from the night before

Met a woman on the corner said yo come in my door

Heard the rhythm of the music pumping up from through floor

When I walked through the party it was ready to go

There were punk rockers reggae rockers all in a row

Windin and a grindin through the dj show

The woman from the corner I was getting to know

The rude boys back in town

The rude boys back in town

I tell ya that

The rude boys back in town

The rude boys back in town

I see ya whoa whoa whoa whoa

Whoa whoa whoa whoa

Damn I say Micheal michael where you been

You been eating out you know you look a little thin

I been out in japan just chilln tokyo man

I toked up on the train to hiroshima and then

I jump into the water and I started to swim

Shanghai Ho Chi Minh city and then

DArundi indonesia where I hook with some friends

I visit tamaita down in tohor again

I jumped across the byron out of springs

Down to cape town where I be doing my thing

Then I be gone to uganda tanzania

Off to sudan and glad to see em

Jerusalem, mumbai, istanbul

Then down to rio sebala brazil

Up to Guadalajara kingston way

Stop off in havanah and im back to the bay

The rude boys back in town

The rude boys back in town

I tell ya that

The rude boys back in town

The rude boys back in town

We calln out from itune undergroune

I come to tell you

The rude boys back in town

Are you rocking rocking

Are you rolling rolling

Are you whining

Are you grinding grin

Do you want to rock a party to the morning morning

When the police come in, give a warning warning

Im the drummer but feel like I pick up a mic

And when I rock the party you can do what you like

Get ready for the rhythm where we come here to sine

From la in the morning we wont stop until light

All night long we just rocking along

Dance to the dj we be singing a song

Hold to your lover if your loving is strong

Dance to the bass line all night long

The rude boys back in town

The rude boys back in town

Let me tell ya that

The rude boys back in town

The rude boys back in town

Whoa whoa whao whao

So unique

Whoa whoa whao whao

So unique

Whoa whoa whao whao

So unique

Whoa whoa whao whao

So unique

The rude boys back in town
