#6.... Back to the Hotel

  • Performed by N2Deep

  • N2Deep's debut single is one of those songs that forces you to bob your head. "Back to the Hotel" combines saxophones, guitars, drums and odd "beeps" to make an infectious hook, and Jay Tee's rapping is delivered very smoothly.

    The song was an underground hit back in '92 that grew on me very quickly. It's been as high as #4 on my list, and it proudly stays at #6 currently.

    The Lyrics

    V-Town, brother check it out, I'm bout to throw it down
    Dick in hand, you shoulda had your toke down
    A little city, chillin in the North Bay
    Needless to say, my boyz don't play fool
    Yorker sidin' you know how the song goes
    In the back, sippin purple chongos
    Don't look for trouble but it always seems to find us, forty
    Grippin panties, sippin, and the seats are right behind us
    Quick left, one blow, K.O.
    Hit the road to the next episode
    In the saga of a few fellas
    Oh what the hell, I guess i better tell ya
    It's Friday night, I got a brand new kick on
    Up in the Henny, for me to get bent on
    Hit the country club then picked up ML
    Eighty west, back to the hotel
    
    At the telly, Bones is doing butt work
    Johnny Z had his hand up a miniskirt
    The Latina in the corner started to flirt
    And I knew that when she saw me baby doll was gonna jaw me
    Set for the night so I took her to my ride
    Grab my Mickey and my Buddha and I met her outside
    Who-ride, brother striking through to be seen
    A Lexus 400 to the triple gold Z's
    Acid in my bottle, so I gotta get some more
    Put the pedal to the metal back to the liquor store
    Cause you know what i mean when I'm feelin kinda funky
    A sick honky, straight goin donkey
    Money in my sock, jimmy in the glove
    Layin in the Lexus, I'm about to make good love
    And burn rubber up the block
    Back to the telly, I gotta get some new cock
    New cock (echoes)
    
    Ah naw, could it be?
    I just got a page an' a broad wanna do me
    Hooked it up, told her meet me at the hotel
    She had a friend with her so i called TL
    Soothe me up, Sally wanna meet Dick
    And Monty licked, so try an' make it real quick
    
    (tick-tock)
    (tick-tock)
    (tick-tock)
    (tick...Honk Honk)
    
    Aw yeah, I jumped in the F-train
    But wait a minute, we gotta hit the store man
    I got to get some gum and some Tic-Tac's
    Two tall cans and a packet of Blackjack's
    We got the goods, now we're headin for the ho down
    There goes the telly, so fella won't you slow down
    Park the ride in the front like a sick one
    Just in case, we gotta bust a quick one
    Lock the load, let's go look for like 118
    But lay low cause I really don't wanna be seen
    Is this the room? Aw yeah, that's the right one
    I got the black broad and you got the white one
    So hit the lights man, I just might man
    Try an' throw this thing all night an'
    Get her so sprung, that she'll drop some ale
    So I can catch turn and hit another hotel
