[00:09.522] | I got something to say, man, you dig? |
[00:11.821] | I mean, you cats been up here rapping |
[00:13.336] | Ain’t said nothing about the real thing, you know what I mean? |
[00:18.508] | Individually picking out the brothers that jam |
[00:20.807] | Commonly known are people like Sly and Graham |
[00:23.053] | Something kinda special about the grooves they wrote |
[00:25.457] | They all had the flavor of the Oakland Stroke |
[00:27.860] | That’s the bass drum kickin’, the high-hat lickin’ |
[00:30.028] | A groove so hard it makes your feet kickin’ |
[00:32.510] | To a dope groove, I mean, a fresh groove |
[00:34.652] | It’s a guaranteed hit to make your body move |
[00:37.081] | Others try to hang but they just can’t cope |
[00:39.537] | They must come to realize, it’s the Oakland Stroke |
[00:48.601] | Yo, miss thang… |
[00:51.292] | Uh-huh, uh-huh |
[00:54.191] | Can’t cope with the Oakland Stroke |
[00:56.725] | Uh-huh, uh-huh…Oakland, Californ-i-a |
[01:00.931] | If you get the nerve then you might wanna try |
[01:02.995] | You can’t hang, you’re getting mud in your eye |
[01:05.189] | So don’t even flirt or you might get hurt |
[01:07.514] | And you’ll wind up looking like dirt |
[01:09.917] | From a dope groove, I mean, a fresh groove |
[01:12.111] | It’s a guaranteed hit to make your body move |
[01:14.384] | Others try to hang but they just can’t cope |
[01:16.761] | When are they going to realize, it’s the Oakland Stroke |
[01:19.504] | (Everybody knows, it’s time to Oakland Stroke) |
[01:28.699] | Uh-huh, uh-huh |
[01:31.364] | You can’t cope with the Oakland Stroke |
[01:33.062] | Uh-huh, uh-huh |
[01:35.413] | Make your body move, you can’t cope with the Oakland Stroke |
[01:39.618] | (“Yeah y’all, come on”) |
[01:40.663] | Uh-huh, uh-huh |
[01:41.813] | Now give me something… |
[01:42.805] | (“Yeah y’all…”) |

[01:56.911] | Uh-huh, uh-huh |
[02:01.065] | Well, to sum it up, all I’m really trying to say |
[02:03.442] | Is that the Oaktown brothers like to do it one way |
[02:06.002] | Funky, greasy, nasty, hard |
[02:08.353] | And never once do we drop our guard |
[02:10.600] | When the bass starts lickin’, the high-hats kick in |
[02:13.473] | The guaranteed hit to make feet start kickin’ |
[02:15.302] | Others wanna hang but can’t cope |
[02:17.783] | It’s the Oakland Stroke |
