"Old School" lyrics
[R. Kelly:]
Here's the old school with the new school
Here's the old school with the new school
Here's the old school with the new school
Here's the old school with the new school
[Aaliyah:]
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
[Aaliyah (R. Kelly):]
Hey boy, won't you play for me?
Right now, mm, give me that old school beat
I wanna hear it here (Here it is), grooving all night long
I gotta let you know you got it going on
Play it for me
[Aaliyah:]
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
Hey boy, let me hear your song
Yeah, play 'til the break of dawn
Keep it right here, grooving all night
I gotta let you know that it feels so right
Play it for me
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
[R. Kelly:]
Yo, back in the days I used to listen to records
Trying to figure out how I could make my own records
Working in restaurants, busting on dishes
Hoping that the man upstairs respect my wishes
Cigarette, lighters, Ardig wallets, I was selling them
'Til I met the B.H. and bust down acappella to him
He said you got talent and you're going places
I'd heard that line before, but what the heck, I signed the papers
Ever since that day I drew my hancock, it was on
And now I'm mixing new music with the old school songs
[Aaliyah:]
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
Here's the old school with the new school
Here's the old school with the new school
Here's the old school with the new school
Here's the old school with the new school
[Aaliyah:]
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
[Aaliyah (R. Kelly):]
Hey boy, won't you play for me?
Right now, mm, give me that old school beat
I wanna hear it here (Here it is), grooving all night long
I gotta let you know you got it going on
Play it for me
[Aaliyah:]
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
Hey boy, let me hear your song
Yeah, play 'til the break of dawn
Keep it right here, grooving all night
I gotta let you know that it feels so right
Play it for me
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
[R. Kelly:]
Yo, back in the days I used to listen to records
Trying to figure out how I could make my own records
Working in restaurants, busting on dishes
Hoping that the man upstairs respect my wishes

[Aaliyah:]
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
R. Kelly, play me something from the old school
