1.Beats To The Rhyme
Dj's and mc's, coming up next is the one and only
Incredible, jam master
Yo, back up off the ropes, punk
Beats to the rhyme, the rhyme i just made
Party at the jammie til lights the night fade
Trooping for the feature we all get paid
So let's go
Yo! d that's me, the king, the mc
Rhyme get mine on the t-o-p
Can another mc ever rock this beat？ (hell yeah)
It's like the a the b to the c
It's easier than (1, 2, 3)
(he's jam master jay, i'm d.m.c.)
So here's run
It's time for we to cease (so what？)
So rhymers speak your peace
Why？ cause you can't touch (jam master jay)
Cause he's number (1, 2, 3, 4, hit it)
Dance to the rhythm, the rhyme, the cold flow
Chance to give em is done i told yo
For these routines like 1983
It's just a little reminder
So those suckas is kinder
A little message from (run-d.m.c.)
Cuts for days will amaze and maze
But will make you sad to tan all the dance aways
Got the mic, the man, the master plan
But the ram, the jam
(know i am？) goddamn!
Spins he wins, clocking ms ends
To his friends he lends, lotta joy he sends
Jay lose today, this is what i say
(dick in your mouth all day)
My beats were played and laid rhymes made
Jay dj'ed and i got paid
Made something out of nothing (yo d that's true)
Yes my brother i would do it for you
I roam in the zone of the microphone
And i'm on the throne but i'm not alone
Got bones of steel and not of stone
I'm known to be prone and make your momma moan
Time for the rhyme so let the stars shine
Shame for the fame and the name combined
Run for the fun but you can gimme your ring
Show i gotta go so now a word from the king
Hardcore, rhymes galore, giving you more
And like i said before...
Beats to the rhyme the name of this jam
D that's me and that's who i am
Rocking on the mic cause you know i can
You gotta understand i don't give a damn
Jay hit a play today i must say
Hooray to the way that is a-ok
As we wax the tracks all the dj's play
With (dick in your mouth)
A little (dick in your mouth)
A big (dick in your mouth all day)
2.How'd Ya Do It Dee
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.'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
Well i ah, impress the bad, suggest the rad
Who be less when they 'fess, against the test
And i insist that this, with a flick of the wrist
Will be kid not dissed at the top of the list
So go a-head, and stand, check out the man
With a clan, never ran, and in demand
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？
Full in effect, set comin correct
Yet gainin respect, still breakin a neck
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？'
3.I'm Not Going Out Like That
Many of our people..
Stealing..
Gambling..
Many of our people turn to..
Crime, time, nah i get mine
Climb, do fine, wine and just dine
Make, break, ill and just take
Fate for god sake a break is at stake
Crack, wack, smack you right back
In fact you might last to jack if i crack
Cry, lie, do or just die
Live positive and give, but that's why 'i'm not..'
(cuts：
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that', 'i'm not!!'
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that' (like like, like..)
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that', 'i'm not!!'
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that!')
Dee the king me, and you knew it
？？ ？？ ？？, so get to it
You want to flaunt and talk, and you're tryin
To taunt and want and want, cause you're dyin
Your place, race, chase, and i seen it
And now, child, bow, and i mean it
I came, saw, kicked, and you saw it
The crowd, proud and loud, and all for it
？？ sin is wrong, so don't do it
We invented the song, and you blew it
I knew the time was right, so i wrote it
Here's the hook, look, so just quote it 'i'm not..'
(cuts：
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that', 'i'm not!!'
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that'
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that', 'i'm not!!'
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that!')
Comin off, time and time, and that's whether
You, your crew, knew, whatever
I did, done, do, i'm this clever
I come again and win, and you'll never
See a man like me, your idol
So joke, smoke, toke, but this title
The rhyme is mine, fine, and so vital
It's time for me to rock, my recital
Gonna tell you about a groove, that's comin
From the heart in part, and just one in
A million, or you, will be bummin
So check the time, the rhyme, that comes from it
Inside your brain, remain, so just keep it
Plain, sane, refrain, so just peep it
Look, see it, check, but never stop it
The hook, comes, next, so jay drop it! 'i'm not..'
(cuts：
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that', 'i'm not!!'
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that' (like like, like..)
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that', 'i'm not!!'
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that!')
Gotta go joe you know, to the t-o, p
And see dee, you know we know
The way today i say, i'm not a leo
The king is dee and jay, he score ？？
That's left to smile a while, keep grinnin
This past style, is wild, and i'm winnin
Roll, stroll, control, and i'm coolin
The king of rock and roll, and i'm rulin
I rhyme, shock and stop, and i'm droppin
I pop hip-hop, i'm hip-hoppin
Receive a g ？？ while i'm throwin
It's d.m.c. it's me, i'm not goin 'i'm not..'
(cuts：
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that', 'i'm not!!'
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that' (like like, like..)
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that', 'i'm not!!'
'going' .. 'out' .. 'like, like-like that!')
Must, crush, us, you gotta
Take, us, out, we're hotter
Team, is, mean, a lot of
Work, in, volved, we're smarter
Dee, jay, run, no jokin
Hot, as, hell, we're smokin
Punks, rumps, chumps, we're yokin
News, is, crews, are chokin
Out, like, that, not goin
In, like, men, we're growin
Chance, to, dance, not blowin
Go, to, show, don't roll in
Don't, you, know, we're stayin
Here, to, show, not playin
Here's, the, jam, respect it
Time, to, end, this record! 'i'm not..'
(cuts：
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that', 'i'm not!!'
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that' (like like, like..)
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that', 'i'm not!!'
'going' .. 'out, out out' .. 'like that!')

4.Mary, Mary
'mary, mary..' why ya buggin？
'mary, mary..' i need ya huggin
Had a fly girl flo, called her honey
Next thing she spent up all my money
？？ debt, you and your girl's dizzy
Stopped movin crack but you're still gettin pissy
You could call me everyday god sent
Like you was lois lane and i was clark kent
I spend and i spend and you spent and you spent
Now my house with a mouse is a roach with a tent
'mary, mary..' why ya buggin？
'mary, mary..' i need ya huggin
Mary mary mary you cold thumb suckin
Lookin for you, but you keep duckin
I wanna find you, i gotta tell you somethin
So just be quiet and don't say nuttin
Mary mary mary why you out there stuntin？
Supposed to be with me, but not you're frontin
We started out new, you used to be true
Now you're buggin, what's wrong with you？
'mary, mary..' why ya buggin？
'mary, mary..' i need ya huggin
Now..
This girl mary i knew so well
I met her on the road in a fly hotel
High on the heels and never failed
(clubs and the pubs is where she dwelled)
Story about mary was well to tell
She seemed to scheme for a dream to sell
She spent a night locked in a cell
I knew mary well cause she +raising hell+
'mary, mary..' why ya buggin？
'mary, mary..' i need ya huggin
It's not mary who was quite - contrary
Talkin bout mary who was always in a - hurry
The things she needed were necessary
She did not need, a busted cherry
True and blue just like a blueberry
Ask if she's crazy and i'll say very
Livin in a house that's out on the prairie
I worry about mary cause mary is scary!
'mary, mary..' why ya buggin？
'mary, mary..' i need ya huggin
'mary, mary..' why ya buggin？
'mary, mary..' i need ya huggin
'mary, mary..' why ya buggin？
5.Miss Elaine
My my my teacher came in class, breathin hard as could be
And then she made a pass at my homeboy d
I said she's movin fast, she's lookin at me
Miss elaine!
She's a crazy lady, she may be insane
She always call me baby, but that's not my name
Hey those kisses that she gave me, i just can't explain
Miss elaine!
Miss elaine! was her name!
Miss elaine! was her name!
She walked into the class with an aim for the day
Elaine had a game and i was willing to play
She said if i was down, she'd give me an a
Miss elaine!
Yo, my class is breakin fool, she sent them all home
She kept me after school, yeah me all alone
I follow all the rules, but i should have known
Miss elaine!
Miss elaine! was her name!
Miss elaine! was her name!
Ahhhhhhhh...
{＊guitar solo＊}
Try to go to school, keep my head on the books
My teacher's kinda cool, give the dirtiest looks
All my friends want a hook-up, but nobody hooks
Miss elaine!
Yo, i go for what i know, and i get what i get
It's gettin rather frantic, people say i'm a pet
She's makin me a winner and i'm glad that i met
Miss elaine!
Miss elaine! was her name!
M_m_m_m_m_miss elaine! miss elaine!
Ahhhhhhh, make it funky now
6.Papa Crazy
Now papa don't give a damn, or say, 'thank you, ma'am'
Eatin filet mignon, lobster tails and crab
He eats the finest food, he ain't the kindest dude
And then to put it to you straight he's crazy lazy and rude
His temper's boiling hot, whether you like him or not
Not to mention bout his mansion and his big ol' yacht
He never gave me a dime or even spent, some time
And that's why i had to cold write this rhyme about..
Chorus： jam master scratch 'papa was', run-d.m.c. 'papa crazy',
'crazy' (2x)
Now papa livin like a rich man, up on the hill
Yeah my daddy got a caddy funky fresh seville
He got diamonds and furs, for his and hers
And a cat, in the hat that just, chills and purrs
Now he eats and grubs, and rocks beats at clubs
While mama makin nothin while she sweeps, and rubs
You wanna know about his dough, how he got paid
Well the last, that asked, got sprayed, and laid, because..
Chorus
{interlude}
Papa hang with crazy people crazy times of the night
Runnin round with crazy women but but that's alright, because..
Chorus
Yo run my papa was crazy, crazy as can be
And my mama said that he left me when i was three
But my mama never told me he was out of his mind
Drinkin wine, all the time, never earnin a dime
He didn't care where he slept, or where his clothes were kept
He was so in debt somebody broke his neck
And on the day that papa died, they wrote on his grave
That 'papa died a bum, but he died brave,' because..
Chorus
{ad libs to last 25 seconds, music eventually ends}
7.Radio Station
Radio station, on vacation
Wonder where run was, damn be patient
Comin to the rescue, people won't let you
Forget about my dj, and my crew
Pickin up the pieces, nephews and nieces
Chocolate in a peanut butter cup, called reese's
Took a little break, for goodness sake
Gotta chill, get ill, cold fishin by the lake
Take a brain off rappin, 'member what happened
Listen reminisce and cold keep your foot tappin
Darryl and joe cause the dj's jason
Hear no fear, dear radio station
Radio station, around the nation
Run, d, and jason, made a dedication
To those listenin, we're not dissin em
Recording and rewarding so we won't be missin em
Keep on playin song, lp playin long
Jay, d, and joe, keep the radio stayin on
I always say to joe, turn on the radio
Jam master jay will know, that is the way to go
While jay's djin, i will be sayin
Rhymes that are playin, fm or am
On hot rotation, a winning combination
Am, fm, music modulation
Rappin on the mic is my occupation
That's what i like, dear radio station
Am, fm, thought that i left them
Back and exact never wack no more jetset
Run made a return, d makin me earn
Jay gotta play on the radio we burn
Hotter than a fire, kids goin higher
Told you on the album, that was prior
Two that's tougher than, nobody rougher when
Run-d.m.c., throwin down like a bufferin
Relievin all pain, receiving much gain
Remaining entertaining while we entertain
For the black white chinese spanish indian haitian
Hear no fear, dear radio station
D, joe, jason, radio station
Saw that, format, you be placin
Records, other than, run, go cover and
Put em on your list, people hear and discover them
Take or break the tunes that make it
D gotta be on top and shake it
Keep on rockin it, ain't no stoppin
My alliance droppin science on the radio poppin it
One top ten again, run's gonna win again
Jay's gonna spin again, on the fm again
I coulda and shoulda and woulda, wrote a letter
But a speech that'll reach the streets is much better!
8.Ragtime
I.. woke up this morning got ready to roll
Put on my green bomber it was, freezing cold
Applied longjohns with adidas not matching
I called up jam master cause i knew he was scratching
(whassup？) jay to the telly music, loud as hell
He said - 'hold up run,' ＊ding dong＊, 'it's the bell!'
Jay to the door as he leaves the cut
For his eyes a surprise, 'd.m.c. whassup？'
I need a little help jay, i got a little problem
A guy like yourself, maybe you can help me solve em
I only want to know why this happens all the time
(what？) everywhere i go, i start to rap and rhyme
I rock them in the day (yeah you rock em every night)
I rock em when i left so def i knew something was wrong
(alright)
I rhyme when i am sleeping, i rhyme when i'm awake
When i was nine i said a rhyme by putting candles on my cake
I just came from the bank (you said a rhyme？) a rhyme so funny
A song about the line so long they all gave me their money
That's why i came to you, you're my friend (yes that is true)
Said maybe jay knows what to say, he'll tell me what to do..
Hmmmm.. yo you go get joe, and all the rhymes you made
And we'll go to the bank, and we can all get paid!
Cruisin down the block, in the sixty-six olds
Girls are on the jock like the ride was a rolls
Feelin kinda great, got change for the toll
Suckers gotta wait, that's your fate, poor soul
Heard you on the records and i heard you on the tapes
Stop, switch the conversation over to grapes, because
You're not bustin none, so stop fussin son
You're not down with rush, they call us russ and run
Since that's the company, you won't be chumpin me
Here's the man, ask that fan (run big brother d!)
9.Run's House
A whole lot of superstars, on this stage her tonight
But i want yall to know one thing-this is.... my house
and when i say who's house, yall know what time it is.
Who's house？
Runs house!
Ah, once again my firend
Not a trend for then
They said, rap was crap
But never had this band
Till the ruler came

(chorus)
Who's house？

And this is what run dmc be about yall

I buts the most rhymes in new york state
Reporters claw
Producers die
They want to be down with the king!
The wanted man from the wanted clan
Wanted by every fan from across the land
Not a g.a.n.g from off the street
R. and u.n. d.m.c complete!
(chorus)

Another time i take
For the rhyme i make
Make me mad and sad because the fad is fake
See i do this thing so come presue this king
One mind i rhyme so all you just break
Cus im the best im def
Ask the rest they left
Thats my name my game and we dont need the rep
So keep the booze you loose and suckas cool your mouth
I set a trap for rap thats crap
Its run's house!
(chorus)
Some underestimate
And miscalculate
My intent to create what i call the great
Till i make a song that i prove em wrong
See my song so strong ittll make em come along
Come in the door
Get on the floor
Hard rock hard hitting hiphop hard-core
Causing casualties and catastrophes
And tragedies for the suck emcees
Use a strategy to get the best of me
You dirty rat emcees
Whoever you may be
You need to go down south
You need to shut your mouth
Its all about no doubt just shout cus we turn it out!
(chorus)

Born a king, to rule this thing
Treats are the beats that battles bring

11.They Call Us Run-d.m.c.
Now that i waxed the crowd, i'm feeling proud and loud
Shoulda screamed on a sucker, but i stepped and bowed
Now that i'm back to 'tract, i'll attack for fun
Darryl mack and ？ is never wack or lack they call us
I'm strapped with rap when i attack, i'm stunning
Darrly mack on track and i'm off, and running
Don't sneak this peak, because i keep, on taking
The lead with speed, and records keep, on breaking
I pop and drop, all opp-osition
And pop hip-hop, cause i'm the top, position
I ill and chill, cause my skill, is super
For a mill i thrill, but i'm still, a trooper
I'll slay and stay til there are none
So romance and dance and prance, a to the chants of
Well i stomp and chomp, all comp-etition
Make break and take you cold on, a mission
Raise hell, excel, and tell you, who's winning
I'm boss, you lost, before the game, first inning
Let's go and flow, to the rhymes, i'm saying
Cause it's fun for run to see the crowd, obeying
Mic be checking i'm wrecking we're never second to none
So let's snap and clap and tap, to the to the rap of
I'm not the king because (cause) i sell the most
I just bring the laws (laws) cause i'm the host
I got a crown i wear (r： so what it mean？) i rule
I come to town they stare (r： cause d.m.c.) is cool
？ because, the crowd, is on it
Drop this beat and pause, the tables are turning
Break backs on track and i can even act
So max, relax, new jacks, and get the facts from
They call us on the phone
They call us all alone
They call us where we roam
They call us when we're home
They call us up to par
They call us in our cars
They call us in the bars
They call us superstars!
They call us
'run-d.m.c. and jam master jay...'
12.Tougher Than Leather
＊ due to the hard rock beat and the way this song is mixed
I cannot guarantee lyrical accuracy; any assistance is
appreciated
Unconceivable, unbelievable
Grammar like a hammer information receivable
Sent by the lord, here and abroad
With words well adored now they can't be ignored!
The force of course that makes run the boss
So get lost because i just toss a punk
Make way today and if i may i say
I make pay with jay, so get away okay？
Gainin weight, i ate the whole plate today
Never rate the great, i go state to state
Just peep and keep but don't sleep or weep
Get deep to leap or i'll beep the jeep
Put down the clown, get 'round the town
I found the sound that i pound the ground
Get paid and laid, not 'jayed or 'fraid
So i stayed and made, not a bad debate
Got a group to troop, with a shoop de shoop
Shoot hoop then scoop, on this loop to loop
Goin off and off, not soft of course
Just black and back to go back and forth
Go to school and cool, ？？ ？？ and pull
Got soul and gold and cold hold a jewel
Upset the vet, a vet met a jet
Just let your ？？, and i'll win the bet
Got a punch to crunch, cold munch for lunch
Not grady or the lady from the brady bunch
Got cheese in lee's like he's in jeans
Charge visa freeze, on these with ease
No dope to cope, just good to go
There's hope to pope, big nope for no
Quite clever and never, we're together forever
Run-d.m.c. and we're 'tougher than leather'
Strong and mighty hard as can be
？？ ？？ ？？ lie press strong as dee
Never frightened i'm writin fightin for what's right
Let's keep it ？？ in the night i'm creepin with my mic
I got to go for broke, and i ain't no joke
I won't yoke and choke, 'cept you suckers i smoked
Bumrush and crush, leave em in the dust
This is a must to rough, ？？ ？？ ？？
Only strong survive, and the weak will die
As long as i'm alive i keep my head up high
Because i'm strong in body, and smart in mind
I was born to rhyme, as a gift to mankind
No punk or chump, never givin no slack
We'll be killin a villain and like chillin, 'yo black!'
I got a ？？ ？？, it's me you run from
I'm the king i do my things until my kingdom come!
{＊guitar solo＊}
.. cause .. i'm
Rough and tough, cold huff and puff
Don't bluff the stuff, got enough to rough
Go long and on, no longer song
Go on and on just for past the dawn
Put preach and teach, with a speech to reach
All streets and each, with beats for treats
Got the king supreme, may seem the clean
With a beat and a ring, no dream machine
Not a gang to bang, out to hang with slang
Talking yang and tang, about everythang
Just brothers and others, like fathers and mothers
Who discovered they love us they think that i've been above us
No crime or time, just rhyme and i'm
Full grown and own, no phone or dime
Just cut the stuff, til you get enough
Cause we're rougher than tougher and rougher tougher than tough!
{＊guitar solo＊}
Ah with a voice like thunder, words of wonder
Over all standin tall and the suckers fall under
Posessed with power, cowards will cower
Ducks we devour hour hour after hour
Three man riot, you can't deny it
We're so ill that you can't defy it
Gonna live, positive, forever, and ever
Run-d.m.c. and we're 'tougher than leather'
