New Kids on the Block - Are You Down? Lyrics

Yo, Jordan! what's up?
Hey Danny! what's happening?
Oh, here comes little Joey Joe down the street
Ho! what's happenin' fellas?
Yo, there's Jon, but has anyone seen Donnie?
I don't know, but I thought I saw him walking towards the corner store.
Nah, he's at the park playing ball
Oh, here he comes now

Hey guys!
Where have you been?
Man, I've got a story to tell!
Hit it!

Saw a homegirl at the corner store
Eyes started bugging, mouth fell to the floor
She had a miniskirt and a sexy pose
I tried to rap to her, but I just froze
Tell me now fellas, what can I do?
To make a girl like me, like a girl likes you?

Well homeboy get ready!
'cause you want correcting
'cause a girl needs love
And plenty of affection

If a girl were mine, I'd give her the world
I'd buy her diamonds and pearls just to make her my girl

That might work with your girl, but not with mine.
She's not the type of girl to fall for any line

I'd take her out to dinner, treat her like a winner
I may be young, but I'm no beginner

All your ways are good, but not as good as mine
You have to be sincere for a girl that fine!

[Chorus]
Baby, won't you please be mine?
Are you down?
Baby, won't you please be mine?
Are you down? ho!

Alright then, d., since you gave it a try
Tell us about the girl who caught your eye

It was after school and I was feeling cool
'til I saw that girl and I started to drool
So I thought to myself, take it easily
I couldn't let peer pressure get the best of me
I thought to myself, what should I do?
That's when she came up on me and said 'I love you'

Who me?
Yeah, you!
Couldn't be!
But it's true!

So I rushed back home to tell you guys,
But not before I got a quick kiss goodbye!

Did you meet her friends?
Yeah, they looked def.
Yo, that was fresh!
Word! let's go left.
So here goes the keys
On which it depends
She's got
One!
Two!
Three!
Four!
Fresh girlfriends!

[Chorus]

[Repeat: x5]
Are you down?
Are you down?

[Chorus]

Are you down?
Are you down?
Are you down?
Are you down?

Joey Joe!
Nimble and quick.
You have to be def to be down with my clique

Jon!
Jon:you know I've got the style
When I go into a party all the girls go wild

Danny d!
The prince! make no mistake.
I'm the mc devastating. so cool and I break.(dance)

Don-nie! that's me, don't give me no slack!
I get loose with the juice, 'cause I got it like that

Here we go!
