Pick up the phone call up the line
Call up the re-quest line
Call up the line
Call up the re-quest line
Nana nana nananana na na nana nana

Get down wit, down wit us
This is a re-quest Mr. Radio Man
Just one desire from a hip-hop fan
Hey Dj your on the line girl
Hey Dj On the request line girl
Play the record by my favorite band
I like to hear my favorite song on the radio
So I called and requested on the radio
Tell the DJ spin it on the mix show
Make a brother feel like im down at the disco
And we gonna keep it going like crisco
Cuz the DJ grab the record by the fist full
by the crate full, and we greatful
When you hear the stuff of records get a tasteful
Last night the DJ saved my life
Cuz of the collection of the records he saved
To the direction of the record we swayed
And all night through the session we stayed
Hook Cuz you know you got the feeling
All right Good god got the feeling
All right Touch the ceiling when I'm feelin
All right now And I be feelin
All right Dont stop keep it goin now come on
