Number one, Kurtis Blow

Basketball is my favorite sport

I like the way they dribble up and down the court

Just like I'm the king on the microphone

So is Doctor J and Moses Malone

I like slam dunks so taking into the hoop

My favorite play is the alley-oop

I like the pick-and-roll

I like the give-and-go

'Cos it's basketball uh, Mister Kurtis Blow, uh

They're playing basketball we love that basketball

They're playing basketball we love that basketball

I used to go to dinner then take the girl

To see Tiny play against Earl The Pearl

And Wilt, Big O, and Jerry West play basketball at it's very best

Basketball has always been my thing

I like Magic, Bird and Bernard King

And number thirty-three my man Kareem is the center on my starting team

Uh uh uh

Uh oh

To the hoop, y'all watch out, watch out in your face here comes the rest

Clyde, Rick Barry and Pistol Pete

Now these players could never be beat

Isiah, and Iceman too just give 'em the ball and then you chalk up two

Dantley and Wilkins are on the scene

And Ralph Sampson is really mean

Bill Russell didn't take no junk and Darryl Dawkins got a monster dunk

Ooh, uh uh uh to the hoop, y'all

Yes, ah oh, here I go face, watch 'em

To the, to the hoop, y'all it's basketball

Tell me, were you in the joint the night Wilt scored a hundred points

Or when Celtics won titles back-to-back

And didn't give nobody no kind of slack?

Or when Doctor J shook the whole damn team

With moves that came right out of a dream?

Or when Willis Reed stood so tall

Playing D with desire?

It's basketball

Bass line, slam dunk

D up, D up, D up, D up we love that basketball

Oh yeah, I get the ball and then I go and play like a superstar in the NBA

The forwards, the centers and all the guards

The ones you see on the bubblegum cards

Me and homeboy would go one-on-one

'Cos playing the game is a lot of fun

Sit by the TV and watch 'em all

'Cos Kurtis Blow is rappin' basketball, uh

Man, did you see that boy

Pearl the other night

Take that thing up in Ewing's face?

He's bad, but I like

Michael Jordan, his

Oh y'all remember the old days?

The old days when the Reverend Doctor J

Used to take the whole team

Man I know that still doin' it

Used to burn 'em used to burn 'em I saw him burn

Cazzie Russell one night

Man, it was embarrassing

Hey, y'all see

Bernard King, man?

Oh Bernard King is my man

I like that nigga knicks play ball, baby oh they been playin' ball
