Hoping(Matthew Herbert's High Dub) - Louie Austen, Matthew Herbert

Yeah, Louie’s rap — take 1

We got a funky one

Take me out 2 the ballpark — strike 1!

Louie Louie in the house

Come on y’all, get some

I’m the designated hitter in the house

So don’t play the hold out

Tell 'em what I’m talkin' about

Set it up — swingin' - strike 2!

Whole house swingin'

People screamin' - ears ringin'

With the sound that I’m throwin' down

Strike 3 — U’re out!

Dropped it in the first round

CHORUS:

Hey, Louie Louie (Go, go, go, go, go, go Louie, go)

Aw yeah

Hey, Louie Louie (Go, go, go, go, go, go Louie, go)

Game 1 of a 7 games series

Who’s up 2 bat?

L-O-U-I-E

Now freeze, can everybody hear me?

Mic check — 1 2 3 — Ahem!

Cool!

Now let me resume, make room

As I zoom 2 the charts with a hype tune

Step if U wanna with the squeeze play fly

But before U know it — another R.B.I.

Yeah

CHORUS

Time 2 switch — here comes a change-up

I’m kicking it at the park with an All-star line up Comin' with the new gears

Sure 2 hit the kind of record these execs are sure 2 benefit from

Yo, hold up P, gimme some

Put some more kick in that bass drum — boom!

This version makes me wanna get dumb

U got me juiced and I’m lookin' 4 the home run

Yeah

Hey Louie Louis (Go, go, go, go, go, go Louie, go)

Who’s in the house?

Hey Louie Louis (Go, go, go, go, go, go Louie, go)

Slide in with attention

I’m scoring a run, 4 which there is no prevention

Home field advantage don’t mean a thing

As long as U bring your swing with soul and feeling

Dig down deep — reach a little farther

Come correct, or don’t even bother

Sooner than later everybody will know my name

Louie Louie’s headed 4 the Hall of Fame — yeah!

CHORUS

Yo ladies, what’s the call?

Louie Louis’s in the house with the party y’all (Oh!)

Oh!

Rollin' up hard — this time flexin'

5-deep sitting in my Benz

4 those who diss and dismiss me Try 2 write me off and say that I’m history

Before I even start, they said I’m through bookin'

Boy, I’m like Ball Park Franks — I’m plump when I’m cookin'

CHORUS
