Basketball Jones
Basketball Jones, I got a Basketball Jones
Got a Basketball Jones, oh baby, oo-oo-ooo
Yes, I am the victim of a Basketball Jones
Ever since I was a little baby, I always be dribblin'
In fac', I was de baddest dribbler in the whole neighborhood
Then one day, my mama bought me a basketball
And I loved that basketball
I took that basketball with me everywhere I went
That basketball was like a basketball to me
I even put that basketball underneath my pillow
Maybe that's why I can't sleep at night
I need help, ladies and gentlemens
I need someone to stand beside me
I need, I need someone to set a pick for me
At the free-throw line of life, someone I can pass to
Someone to hit the open man on the give-and-go
And not end up in the popcorn machine
So cheerleaders, help me out
Basketball Jones, I got a Basketball Jones
I got a Basketball Jones, oh baby, oo-oo-ooo
Oh, that sounds so sweet, sing it out
C'mon coach Booty, Red Blazer, sing along with me
That be bad, honky, yeah
I want everybody in the whole stadium
To stand up and sing with us
Oh yeah, sing it out like you're proud
All right, everybody watchin' coast-to-coast
Sing along with us, Bill Russell, sing along with us
Chick Hearn, sing along with us
Chris Schenkel, don't sing nothin'
Oh, it feels so good, gimme the ball
I'll go one on one against the world, left-handed
I could stuff it from center court with my toes
I could jump on top of the backboard
Take off a quarter, leave fifteen cents change
I could, I could dribble behind my back
I got more moves than Ex-Lax I'm bad
I could dribble with my tongue
Here I go down court, try to stop me
You can't stop me 'cause I got a Basketball Jones
Here I come that's my hook shot with my eyebrow
Yeah, I could dunk it with my nose
I'm, I'm bad as King Kong, gimme the ball
I'm hot, I'm hot as, I'm hot as, I'm hot as, uh uh, uh, uh, uh

Basketball Jones, tengo un Basketball Jones
Tengo un Basketball Jones, oh nena, oo-oo-ooo
Sí, soy la víctima de un Basketball Jones
Desde que era un bebé, siempre estoy driblando
De hecho, yo era el más malo dribbler en todo el vecindario
Entonces un día, mi mamá me compró una pelota de baloncesto
Y me encantaba ese baloncesto
Me llevé esa pelota de baloncesto a todas partes que iba
Ese baloncesto era como una pelota de baloncesto para mí
Incluso puse esa pelota debajo de mi almohada
Tal vez por eso no puedo dormir de noche
Necesito ayuda, damas y caballeros
Necesito que alguien se pare a mi lado
Necesito, necesito a alguien que me fije un pico
En la línea de tiro libre de la vida, alguien a quien puedo pasar
Alguien para golpear al hombre abierto en el «dar y llevar
Y no terminar en la máquina de palomitas de maíz
Así que animadoras, ayúdame
Basketball Jones, tengo un Basketball Jones
Tengo un Basketball Jones, oh nena, oo-oo-ooo
Oh, eso suena tan dulce, cantalo
Vamos entrenador Booty, Red Blazer, canta conmigo
Eso es malo, cariño, sí
Quiero a todos en todo el estadio
Para ponerse de pie y cantar con nosotros
Sí, cantalo como si estuvieras orgulloso
Muy bien, todo el mundo mirando de costa a costa
Canta con nosotros, Bill Russell, canta con nosotros
Chick Hearn, canta con nosotros
Chris Schenkel, no cantes nada
Oh, se siente tan bien, dame la pelota
Voy a ir uno contra uno contra el mundo, zurdo
Podría llenarlo desde el centro de la corte con los dedos de los pies
Podría saltar en la parte superior del tablero
Despegue un cuarto, deje quince centavos de cambio
Podría, podría regatear a mis espaldas
Tengo más movimientos que Ex-Lax. Soy malo
Podría regatear con mi lengua
Aquí voy a la corte, trato de detenerme
No puedes detenerme porque tengo un Basketball Jones
Aquí vengo ese es mi gancho de tiro con mi ceja
Sí, podría mojarlo con mi nariz
Soy, soy malo como King Kong, dame la pelota
Estoy caliente, estoy caliente como, estoy caliente como, estoy caliente como, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh
