13 Contributors Let’s Get It Started Lyrics [Intro] Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho [Verse 1] Now your party wasn't jumpin' and your DJ was weak Instead of dope beats, he was spinnin' them Z's All the fly girls who came with a beat in mind They all up against the wall like a welfare line Do you think for one minute that this is it? Your party is bogus, yo, it ain't legit [Pre-Chorus] You better put on the Hammer and you will be rewarded My beat is ever-boomin' and you know I get it started Get it started [Chorus] Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho Let's get it started! [Verse 2] Now get up out your seat because my beat is so complete I'm movin' everybody from A to Z And when it comes to straight up rockin', I'm second to none From Doug E. (Fresh) to (LL) or DJ (Run) They say, "Hammer, how you do it?" I got it like that My posse's ever-rollin', we keep it intact [Pre-Chorus] Just put on the Hammer and you will be rewarded My beat is ever-boomin', and you know I get it started Get it started [Chorus] Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho (To the bridge) Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho [Verse 3] Now, a lot of B-boys think they're game, yo, they fakin' the beat They hip-hop on the outside, punk rock underneath Before the show gets started, they shake in their boots My posse in the end cold displayin' the Troops Like a trooper, I'm down, cold hooked on the drums 808, SP-12s are inspirin' Africans [Pre-Chorus] Just put on the Hammer and you will be rewarded My beat is ever-boomin' and you know I get it started Get it started [Chorus] Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho Let's get it started! [Verse 4] They said it couldn't happen, that rap wouldn't last The beat is in effect like your oil and your gas 'Cause it's makin' lots of money from top to bottom Whatever's in effect, yo, B-boys have got 'em Nobody knows how a rapper really feels A mind full of rhymes and a tongue of steel [Pre-Chorus] Just put on the Hammer and you will be rewarded My beat is ever-boomin' and you know I get it started Get it started [Chorus] Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho (I can do this) Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho (Yeah, I can do this) Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho (Yeah, boy, I can do this, we can do that) Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho (When I was checkin' it out, homeboy, I was ridin' around the way) Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho (I dropped my top, took one look and it was like that) Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho (She was cold ready to get it started, homeboy, I'm sayin', I'm just sayin') Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho (I'm not sayin' like it's always like that) Let's get it started! Ho-ho, ho-ho (But when you rollin', and you in effect, you get it like that)
