The Dude

Who is it

That walks the street with all the action?

(It's the dude)

Who is it

That always gets a hot reaction?

(That's the dude)

Don't ya go makin' no mojo moves

'Round the dude

(Don't try no funny bizness)

Don't ya be copping no attitude

With the dude

(Hey, hey, here comes the dude)

Hey everybody in the neighborhood

The beauty's on duty, better hear me good

Sister e-flat tomato, brother b-flat balloon

Somethin' funky's goin' down, better listen to my tune

I graduated from the college of the street

I got a P.H.D. in how to make ends meet

Inflation in the nation don't bother me

'Cause I'm a scholar with a dollar

You can plainly see

He's a winner 'cause it's in his blood

Ain't nobody whose out there like him

Any corner in the neighborhood

That's the place that you'll always find him

Soft talkin' with a rap so sweet (he does it good)

Ladies call him the candy rapper (they want his love)

He's the only one that's really cool (he's really cool)

That's the reason why he's the dude

Who is it

That ain't got time for foolish talkin'?

(It's the dude)

Who is it

That looks so clean you can't ignore him?

(That's the dude)

Don't ya go mess with

His walkin' stick, not the dude

(Don't try no funny bizness)

Don't you double-cross him

He's super slick, he's the dude

(Hey, hey, here come the dude)

I'm a stone-cold taker

I'm a piggy bank shaker

And I don't waste my time talkin' trash

So if you go to my school

You gotta learn this rule

Don't let your mouth write a check

That your body can't cash

If you never had it

Don't pay it no mind

I know you're gonna get it

If you take a little time

Take a piece from the East

A piece from the West

Put it where it feels good

Let the dude do the rest

See him steppin' down the street

No forgettin', he's the dude

See him steppin' down the street

No forgettin', he's the dude

Don't ya go makin no mojo moves

'Round the dude

(Don't try no funny bizness)

Don't ya be coppin' no attitude

With the dude

(Hey, hey here comes the dude)

He's the winner 'cause it's in his blood

Ain't nobody who is outthere like him

Any corner in the neighborhood

That's the place you can always find him

Soft-talkin' with a rap so sweet

Ladies call him the candy rapper

He is the only one that is really cool

That's the reason why he is the dude

He's the winner 'cause it's in his blood (there's nobody like him)

Ain't nobody whose out there like him

Any corner in the neighborhood

That's the place you'll always find him

Soft talkin' with a rap so sweet

Ladies call him the candy rapper

He is the only one that's really cool (he's so cool)

That's the reason why he is the dude

Ain't nobody like him
