Album: Yeah, It's That Easy (1997)

  • 65 25 Parkline Drive
    And like always I'm kicking it live
    Wanna call the fellas to see if they is with this
    Gonna get down with the sounds of big breakfast
    Start off the day with some Bob Marley
    Back to the woods for that fresh parlay
    Maybe even spark a little Nicki J.
    And then it's off to center city in the fastest way
    'Cause if you've gotta get downtown real quick
    Then the only way to go is I-76
    Unless of course you want to take that scenic view
    Then East or West River Drive is right for you
    But if you ain't got any time to lose
    Put the pedal to the metal for that voyage cruise
    And get on down to I-76
    Because in 1996 there ain't no tricks in the mix

    Back in 1982, man it was real cool
    And in school if we got good grades and straight up A's
    Our parents would take us to a 76ers game
    I got my game and there ain't no shame
    Big shots for Mo Cheeks and Moses Malone
    Julius Erving called Philly his home
    Bobby Jones, Daryl Dawkins, Andrew Toney sinking threes
    Rocky Balboa comes from south Philly
    But if you want to make it on time to the show
    There's only one road that you really have to know, so
    Get to Fishtown without all that jive
    I suggest that you drive on I-95
    Wanna get downtown but feeling in a fix
    Get on that road they call 676
    The most expensive expansive piece of interstate they ever made
    The fellas ain't famous but they got good game
    Get along 76ers
    Charles Barkley dissed Larry Bird
    Get along 76ers
    Charles Barkley dissed Larry Bird

    Shh-Hoops the middle man now disguised as the Joy
    Valentine Smiles to the Katman play
    Loungin' leather seats 76 gettin' nice
    Cadillac D.B.L. Kristopher pulled the heist
    Expressway expression Soda Pop is pressin'
    Up another piece baby new year painted session
    I'm guessin' the answer to the question
    All the Philly Fellas livin' life as a profession
    Destined to escape a la Spector
    Ah Wilderness yea prep jetta boy
    Friday night rap Broncos and Pepper Shakers
    In the city Ice Dogs Love show I the skyscraper
    The route man it's I-76
    I'm checkin' Otto Shoup singin' Davey Quickness
    Li Li of the Va Li love a ligum everyday
    I'm givin' praise from High Hill Juice to Philly

    But if you've gotta get downtown real quick
    Then the only way to go is I-76
    Unless of course you wanna take that scenic view
    Then East or West River Drive is right for you
    But hope you ain't got any time to lose
    Put the pedal to the metal for that voyage cruise
    And get on down to I-76
    'Cause in 1996 there ain't no tricks in the mix
    Get along 76ers
    Charles Barkley dissed Larry Bird
    Get along 76ers
    Dr. J! Moses Malone
    Get along 76ers
