Throughout Your Years Lyrics & Tabs by Kurtis Blow
Throughout Your Years
guitar chords lyrics
Throughout your years,
your ups and downs,
your highs and your lows,
I'm the man with the mic who rocks the house
The man called Kurtis Blow.
So get out your seat and grab a girl
'casue I'm about ready to rock the world
And listen to my story because it got to be told.
Like an Oscar winning actor when he is playing a role.
When I wasn't the best, there was something in my head.
To be a rapper was my dream.
Like in the morning with the bacon, and the eggs, and the coffee, and the cream
So I made up my mind that I would always try to be the best that I can be.
Now here I am, rapping at the jam
with the all the fly guys and the young ladies
Just take your time, you don't have to hurry
Hang tough, you don't have to worry.
In society, the strong survive
So rap a single or get a nine to five
With a little hard work and dedication we'll pull together and rock the nation
So if you do the do and think you are great, come on everybody, participate.
Say "ho"
You gotta to say "ho" if you are ready to go.
Say "ow"
You gotta to say "ow" if you are ready right now.
Say pride
'cause pride is what we got inside
To the top!
We are going to the top, we ain't going to stop!
Get down!
When it started out, the way wasn't clear,
There was much confusion and a lot of fear.
Walking in the shadow, searching for the light
Be the reason i could be that to make me right.
'Cause it ain't all champaign and cavier
riding 'round the town in the finest car
Living in the star life of luxury
and being seen 'round the world at the place to be
Let down, no jobs ... checks hang up... back sets ...
When it started out, the way wasn't clear,
There was much confusion and a lot of fear.

Be the reason i could be that to make me right.
'Cause it ain't all champaign and cavier
riding 'round the town in the finest car
Living in the star life of luxury
and being seen 'round the world at the place to be
Let down, no jobs ... checks hang up... back sets ...
A thousand things can hold you back and try to run you off the track
So you got to believe you can be the best
You got to work real hard to achieve success
So listen close, 'cause I insist
I got some advice, it goes just like this:
Take your time, you don't have to hurry.
Hang tough, you don't have to worry.
In society, the strong survive,
So rap a single or get a nine to five.
With a little hard work and dedication we'll pull together and rock the nation
So if you do the do and think you are great, come on everybody and participate.
Say "Ho"!
you gotta to say "ho" if you're ready to go.
Say "ow"!
You gotta to say "ow" if you're ready right now.
Say "pride"!
'cause pride is what we got inside.
Say top!
We're goin' to the top, we ain't gonna stop
Get down!
There is a man up there who's calling the shots
He says what is going to happen and what's not.
There is only one way to stake a claim
You got to be a man.
You gotta to play the game.
Some people you may be around have negative vibes and try to get you down
But you mighty sound and you're really strong
You got to ... riding along
Winter, summer, fall, spring,
Give it your all and everything.
Step by step, day by day,
Watch out for obstacles in your way.
Don't be no other, be yourself.
you can do that better than anyone else.
Now, I can't tell you what to do, but the things I say still come true.
Take your time, you don't have to hurry.
Hang tough, you don't have to worry.
In society, the strong survive,
So rap a single or get a nine to five.
With a little hard work and dedication we'll pull together and rock the nation
So if you do the do and think you are great, come on everybody, participate!
Say nahnahnahnah
Say nahnahnahnah
nahnahnahnah
nahnahnahnah
nahnah
nahnah
nahnahnahnah OW!
