[Lyric] Block The Ball (Tabron)

[Intro]
At center, number 10, seven-foot-six, from Bridgeport, Manuuuuuute Bol

Manute Bol
Bol-Bol-Bol-Bol
Manute Bol
Bol-Bol-Bol-Bol
Manute Bol

Manute Bol
Bol
Manute Bol

[Chorus]
Block the ball
Well just block the ball
Block the ball
Can you block the ball?
I said block the ball
You could block the ball
Block the ball
Just block the ball
Manute Bol

[Verse 1]
This is a story about a man named Bol
From the Dinka tribe, 23 years old
From the family tree, he grew so tall
He said "I'd rather play basketball"
So his kinfolks said "Bol, move away from there"
He sold his cows and he took to the air
Said "Washington's the place I want to be"
So he lеft Bridgeport and he moved to DC

Washington that is
Thе nation's capital
Beautiful women and Bullets basketball

Bol-Bol-Bol-Bol

[Chorus]
Block the ball
Just block the ball
I said block the ball
You could block the ball
Can you block the ball?
Just block the ball
I said block the ball
Baby, block the ball
Manute Bol
Bol-Bol-Bol-Bol
Manute Bol

[Verse 2]
Bob, Abe Pollin to Gene Shue
The guy on the phone said "What you gonna do?"
Say basketball is the game that I love
If the price is right we can start tonight

At the Capital Centre
Twenty-thousand screaming fans

[Clips of Manute Bol highlights]
Albert King of the Nets into the lane
Blocked by Bol!
Blocked by Bol!
King tries again
And again blocked by Bol!

[Chorus]
Block the ball
Can you block the ball?
I said block the ball
Can you block the ball?
Block the ball
Just block the ball
Block your ball
Just block that ball
Bol-Bol-Bol-Bol
Manute Bol
Bol-Bol-Bol-Bol

[Verse 3]
They said he wouldn't make it (What?)
They said he couldn't take it (You're lying)
If he strutted his stuff (Get out of here)
They would surely break him (Yeah)
They underestimated (Ha ha ha)
They made a mistake (You know it!)
He may be undeveloped (Yeah)
But he's got what it takes (Why?)
'Cause he'll slam it, cram it, dunk it, jam it
Like tomatoes in a jar, even [can it?]
He can block the ball, but he can't do it all
I saw thee girls walking down in the mall
They stared at him, he stared back
They were Lakers cheerleaders and that's a fact
He said "Wham, bam, thank you ma'am
If you got the jelly, I've got the jam"
You can hip, you can hop, you can body rock
Take it to the hoop, it'll surely get blocked
Like this, like that
Like this, a-this, this, this, y'all
It's like that-tha-that, tha that y'all
It's like that-tha-that, tha that, tha that, like this, this
Yo, rock the funky beat
Hey

[Chorus]
Block the ball
Can you block the ball?
I say block the ball
Baby, block the ball
Block the ball
Just block the ball
Block the ball
I could block the ball
I said block the ball
Come on and block the ball
Can you block the ball?
Just block the ball
I said block the ball
Like this
Block the ball

Booooltending

Bol
Manute Bol
Bol-Bol-Bol-Bol

You might think I'm lying
I thought that he was flying (Ha ha ha)
When he jumped up in the air (What?)
It was Kareem he was defying (You're lying)

Manute Bol
Bol-Bol-Bol-Bol
Bol
