Detroit Basketball (FULL LYRICS)

[EMINƎMShady95]

Thanks for the lyrics guys.

This song is dope.

[christalgurl]

In the first verse, it sounds to me like he says "I'm happy go lucky." not "I'm heavy, you're lucky."

[Heffernan]

I said that -_-

[embm]

ty agn man

wndr if the pistons wud play this song @ their game

[Fa-Q]

Now that I read the actual lyrics....theyre not bad

[Heffernan]

-update-

ok i wrote the rest

my name is chauncey billups and im kinda like a raunchey phillips-
screwdriver, my crews live-er when you cant sleep
and youre still up. i get the ball and im like rip
you cant get a grip, you probably got stripped.
wanna rumble? no reason to trip
i grab it like gnarles barkley holds a mic
your snarles spark me,i smile like charles barkley
cmon im hard, gaurd me
aint doing it, persuiting no law suits
i aint suing, i know what im doing
give me the ball, and your life is ruined
im like rasheed, i remind me of the spirit of proof
im happy-go-lucky, fall in a grove, and im on the move
im smooth with it, give me the ball, you dont know what to do with it
shoot it in the basket, you other teams need a casket
lebrons head dont respond, theres no back-and-forth
this game is mental man, i play it loud, just walk away
and hush the crowd, you trying to touch? sit down

detroit basketball
now homie i told you this is
detroit basketball
man i dont think youre ready

i get the crowd rawled up like a u-haul truck
just call me 2 ball chuck
aint too tall, what?
ill leave utah stuffed
man i love this game, who the hell you called up
you need points on the paint,
im in joints when they state
all my coins in the bank
(i get money..)
and were going all the way
yeah baby its true, im talking to you
you already know what to do
just pass it to me, it just so happens to be,
that i adapt when theres heat, so strap in your seat
i got a grasp on this beat, you aint convinced?
give it to taysean prince, we havent stayed calm since
leave the ball with delayed palm prints
now homie this is...

detroit basketball
now homie i told you this is
detroit basketball
man i dont think youre ready

we get everybody involved...


theres one part hes not talking very clear..and i cant understand...but all well

[xxTrigger1989xx]

This is really called Detroit Basketball?

Btw, I love this song. The first verse is awesome

[dR3]

^Yeah.

And thanks Heff, edited. Oh and, I didn't even know happy-go-lucky existed as a term.

[Heffernan]

haha yeah, its a saying...

the only thing..i didnt bother with propper capitalization, spelling, and all that shit...so good luck with that lol

[dR3]

I got that covered, no worries.

[Heffernan]

alright...oh and

"you need points on the paint, I'm in joints when they state
all my coins in the bank (I-I-I-I-I-I-I get money)
and we're going all the way"

im not too sure about all of that..that was kinda hard to understand what he was saying..if anyone has a better guess...by all means lol

[dR3]

Yeah, "in my joints when they state" is the only part which doesn't make sense. Hopefully someone will catch what Em's saying.

[shadyboymez]

I think the song is done, it's just pretty short. I was hoping that it would be longer, but it's still pretty cool
