[Refrain]
F E7
Yo, back in the days I used to listen to records
Asus4 Am
Trying to figure out how I could make my own records
F E7
Working in restaurants, busting on dishes
Asus4 Am
Hoping that the man upstairs respect my wishes
F E7
Cigarette lighters, Ardig wallets, I was selling them
Asus4
N.C.
'Till I met the B.H. and bust down A Capella to him
F E7
He said you got talent and you're going places
Asus4 Am
I'd heard that line before but what the heck, I signed the papers
F E7
Ever since that day I drew my head high it was on
Asus4
And now I'm mixing new music with the old school songs
[Chorus 2x 2x]
Fmaj7 E7 Asus4 Am
R. Kelly play me something from the old school
Fmaj7 E7 Am
R. Kelly play me something from the old school
