Katman
65 25 Parkline Drive
And like always I’m kicking it live
Gotta call the fellas to see if they is with this
Gonna get down with the sounds of big breakfast
Start off the day with some Bob Marley
Back to the woods for that fresh parley
Maybe even spark a little Nicki J
Then its off to center city in the fastest way
But if you gotta get downtown real quick
Then the only way to go is I-76
Unless of course you wanna take the scenic view
Then the East or West River Drive is just right for you
But if you ain’t got no time to lose
Put the pedal to the medal for that voyage cruise
So get on down to I-76
Cause in 1996 there ain’t no tricks in the mix
G-Love
Back in 1982
Man, it was real cool
and in school
If we got good grades
Like straight up A’s
Our parents would take us to a 76ers game
I got my game and there aint no shame
Big shots for Mo Cheeks
And Moses Malone
Julius Erving called Philly his home
Bobby Jones, Daryl Dawkins
Andrew Toney sinking threes
Rocky Balboa comes from South Philly
So if you want to make it on time to the show
There’s only one route that you really have to know
Get to Fishtown without all that jive
I suggest that you drive on I-95
Wanna get downtown but feeling in a fix
Get on that route they call 676
The most expensive expansive piece of interstate they ever made
The fellas ain’t famous but they got good game
Get along 76ers
Charles Barkley dissed Larry Bird
Get along 76ers
Charles Barkley dissed Larry Bird
Smiles
Shh-Hoops the middle man
Now disguised as the Joy
Valentine Smiles to the Katman ploy
Loungin’ leather seats a 76 gettin’ nice
Cadillac D.B.L. Kristopher pulled the heist
Expresswya expression Soda Pop pressin’
up another piece baby new year painted session
I’m guessin’ the answer to the question
All the Philly Fellas livin’ life as a profession
Destined to escape a la spector
Ah Wilderness yeah prep jetta boy
Friday night rap Broncos and Pepper Shakers
In the city Ice Dog Love show I the skyscraper
Well the route, man it’s I-76
I’m checkin’ Otto Shoup singin’ Davey Quickness
Li Li of the Va Li love a ligum everyday
I’m giving praise to where I’m at in Philly

Get along 76ers (what about the Doctor)
Dr. J! Moses Malone
Get along 76ers (what about the new boys)
Jerry Stackhouse and Iverson

“Nother Publik Service Announcement…Labor Day is NEXT Monday..some people (and by “people” I mean “KC”) need further downtime…though we do appreciate him (and by “him” I mean “KC”) freeing himself from the clutches of his family vacationing in Valhalla to serve the masses (and by “masses” I mean “us”)

On topic…seriously, how could anyone ever forget those lyrics?

In case I’m not the only one who hadn’t heard of I-76 before ……

I was, and still am, Alicia Silverstone-like about this.
good pop culture come back joester . . think basketball rivalries
I’m in the ” only sports literate enough to follow a dinner conversation ” category but have a friend who is a rabid fan and still has a Larry Bird room in her house – not kidding
