D.C. Don't Stop

Intro

Yo

D.C. in the buildin

Let me hear you

Chorus

Pop pop pop

D.C. don't stop

Hands up high keep the block alive

Pop pop pop

We don't ever drop

Makin all this noise from the go-go hive

Hook

(Call it out) Say oh

(Oh)

Say hey now

(Hey now)

Pocket on lock

Run it back around

Verse 1

Corner boys and the horn section

Cowbell knockin on a clear connection

I grew up where the block would breathe

Every Sunday we would roll the sleeve

Bassline movin like a subway train

Hard to feel this and stay the same

Pre-Chorus

And when the drummer hits that pocket

You can feel it in your chest

No way out of this wave

Better ride it with the rest

Chorus

Pop pop pop

D.C. don't stop

Hands up high keep the block alive

Pop pop pop

We don't ever drop

Makin all this noise from the go-go hive

Hook

(Call it out) Say oh

(Oh)

Say hey now

(Hey now)

Pocket on lock

Run it back around

Verse 2

Congas talkin and the timbales answer

Every lick a cleanly polished dancer

Shuffle your feet like you got no care

Let the horn stabs cut the morning air

Block party heat in a summer haze

Lost my voice but I'm in a daze

Pre-Chorus

And when the drummer hits that pocket

You can feel it in your chest

No way out of this wave

Better ride it with the rest

Chorus

Pop pop pop

D.C. don't stop

Hands up high keep the block alive

Pop pop pop

We don't ever drop

Makin all this noise from the go-go hive

Breakdown

(Oh-oh-oh)

(Oh-oh-oh)

Conga conga conga

Cowbell and the clave

Run it run it back now

Give it one more wave

Hook

(Call it out) Say oh

(Oh)

Say hey now

(Hey now)

Pocket on lock

Run it back around

Chorus

Pop pop pop

D.C. don't stop

Hands up high keep the block alive

Pop pop pop

We don't ever drop

Makin all this noise from the go-go hive
