Oakland Stroke (Environmental Mix) Tony! Toni! Toné! (Ft. Vanessa Williams)

[Intro: D'Wayne Wiggins]
To the T-O-N-Y, T-O-N-I, T-O-N-slash-E
Haha, that's me

[Verse 1: D'Wayne Wiggins]
Individually picking out the brothers that jam
Commonly known are people like Sly and Graham
Something kinda special about the grooves they wrote
They all had the flavor of the Oakland Stroke
That's the bass drum kickin', the high-hat lickin'
A groove so hard it makes your feet kickin'
To a dope groove, I mean, a fresh groove
It's a guaranteed hit to make your body move
Others try to hang but they just can't cope
They must come to realize, it's the Oakland Stroke

[Chorus: D'Wayne Wiggins, Vanessa Williams]
(Uh-huh, uh-huh)
You can't cope with the Oakland Stroke
(Uh-huh, uh-huh)
You can't cope with the Oakland Stroke
(Uh-huh, uh-huh)
You can't cope with the Oakland Stroke
(Uh-huh, uh-huh)
You can't cope with the Oakland Stroke
