Run DMC - Hit It Run Lyrics
[D.M.C.]
Born to rock around the clock
You can't say I'm not
And in case you forgot
I'm the KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING, of ROCK!!
I'm the devestating mic controller D.M.C.
And can't nobody mess around with me
I'm the king of rock, rap, and a rhyme
I deal what I feel and it feels fine
If the girl's ?? chase then I will play
around with sound put down for the rhymes I say
Beats flow from Joe and never stop
Better get yourself together let's rock, HIT IT RUN!
[beatboxing]
[D.M.C.]
You, jump, watch you clock, while I rock your spot
I'm better known to the world as the King of Rock
I like to speak my piece when I'm on the mic
I'm the best, or at least, I'm the one you like
And when I serve you deserve to hear what I say
I throw a curve he got the nerve to make a triple play
Now how devestating can an MC be?
My name is Darryl, but you can call me D, HIT IT RUN!
[beatboxing]
[D.M.C.]
It's called, gangsta hard rock, non-stop hip-hop
And it's headed for the top by the rhymes I pop
For every race place color country county or creed
and all of the places that I emceed
B-Boy badness to the highest degree
And it can't b-a-boy unless you be D
You can't bust a cherry or crush a grape
and if you ain't got this tape you're in bad shape
Beats flow from Joe and never stop
[beatboxing]
[D.M.C.]
Do.. you.. really believe what's going on
I was conceived and I was born
I once was lost but now I'm found
Tell your bunch I'm boss I run this town
I leave all suckers, in the dust
Those dumb motherfuckers can't mess with us
Beats flow from Joe and never stop
Better get yourself together, let's rock, HIT IT RUN!
[beatboxing]
[D.M.C.]
I.. was.. straight from the start performin art
Climbin up the chart while others fall apart
The three outlaws in the music trade
We won't rob but our job is to get paid
Cause Run has fun if Jay will play
As I add one more rhyme to say
Now how devestating can an MC be?
My name is Darryl, but you can call me D, HIT IT RUN!
[beatboxing]
[D.M.C.]
I was born
son of Byford, brother of AL
Bad as my mamma and Run's my pal
It's McDaniels, not McDonald's
These rhymes are Darryl's, the burgers are RONALD'S
I ran down, my family tree
My mother, my father, my brother and D
Run-D.M.C. and JAM MASTER JAY

Run DMC Hit It Run Comments
Favorite all time hip hop group hands down my opion
Pure classic indeed hit it run.
Freshman year highschool.
Dmc always was better than run.....
1st vinyl single i had was roxanne roxanne utfo. this was 1st cassette album, raising hell. i wore this out lol
Running out of time
Heard a sample of this song on Encarta 2001
Hit it run
Beat box
Fart noise
Rap perfection
I like the *strong and semi-nasal DMC tone of voice* . Along Melle Mel, Chuck-D, Rakim, KRSONE and Snoop is one of the top "brandmark Hip hop Voices".
G rap, Jada kiss, Dmx, Eric semon, Mc lyte, Mc Ren,Eazy E, Biggie, Rha diggah,Mase,Kool Moe Dee, 50,AZ,Prodigy,Pun, Cube, are apart of my list along with yours !! I agree 100 percent with you bro !!
I grew up on this 👍
Tyler brougth me here
"its McDaniels not McDonalds, these rhymes are mine, the burgers are Ronalds"
KLASSIK.
when i see this COMMENTS about this real...rhat fake...born in 1972..I KNOW REAL WHEN I HEAT IT..THIS IS REAL HIP-HOP.
RIP Jam Master Jay
First tape I had. Thanks to DMC I had something to compare others to. What was/is real vs. was is fake/shit.
2018 and RUN DMC is still in your Face...!
Raising Hell was the 1st cassette I owned- I wore it out for nearly a year, and then copped the Criminal Minded cassette
Undiluted hip hop here, from my teen years. Dope dope dope
Remember buying this in the summer of '86. Played non stop on my techniques :)
When my brother brought this tape home you couldn't tell him nothing
Run DMC's Hit It Run song is a nice jam. Raising Hell album is good. I like the album pictures. RIP Jam Master Jay. I miss you.
Classic track.
6th grade wouldn't have been the same without this album.
I was 11-12 when this come out. Me and my "crew" walking around with a big jam box on our shoulder. I fucking miss them days!!!
My freshman year in high school 1986
WE ALL GREW UP WITH RIGHT. RUN DMC ALWAYS IS WHAT WAS
The 1st hip hop track I heard as a young bull on Encyclopedia Britannica in 98'..........best moment of my life!
This joint was ahead of its time,
One of the best RUN-DMC joints right here,
A Hardcore #Classic
I saw them perform this on Saturday Night Live best performance i ever saw, and I never saw it again. it's been on my mind for 30 years. its season 12 episode 2 hosted by Malcolm-Jamal Warner if anyone finds it please let me know.
They had to edit a particular line, obvs. JMJ scratched a record over it. I was just thinking about that particular performance. Great minds.
I saw that and the one on soul train was dope
Still get goosebumps when I hear this.. I pumped this everyday in the 6th grade.. unadulterated hip hop.
Next to Rakim .. DMC had the best tone of voice. When he spit shit you had to listen and wanted to listen over and over.. Run was good but DMC didn't know folks was tuning in to hear him!
muito bom. Bons tempos😃👍
scratchin ,b boppin real skill without cussin the only one who was jockin there still was the fat boys can u digg it u sucka mcees
Gyyeahhhh!!!!!
This is just so f&c**ing motivating . And Fresh .
Frosh when this came out. In a "city" FILLED w/ hick folk. EVERYONE was a filthy butt rocker. I didn't really have have anywhere to access this kinda music in our stores. :'( But once I started going into downtown seattle, I was saved by the FONKY BEATS, from on high!
Ah-ah- ah Yeah!
Sophmore year in highschool when this came out.
U dont no shitvabout music
Junior in high school...Memphis Central baby!
First vinyl I ever purchased.
Except for my assless chaps.... They have always
been vinyl too.
likewise. Christmas '86
I leave all suckers in the dust / Those dumb motherfuckers can't mess with us
At my school playground as a child in the 80's, this was the first swear word I ever heard! Thanks RUN DMC!!
would jam, rather.
I was a 13 yr. old white boy from the suburbs who jam to this song back in 1986.
1986.....Fuck.....Where does the time go?
RIP jam master jay
The gateway drug of hip hop
Fuck I love drum machine
all punkass wannbe rappers shall bow down............
Ill shit
How devastating can an MC be? Classic
I ONCE WAS LOST AND NOW I'M FOUND .... TELL YOUR BUNCH I'M BOSS I RUN THIS TOWN .... C'MON MAN DMC RHYMES ARE SIC .......
Own this one on Vinyl. STILL a vital album!
man,this was out when i went in the army,i was station at ft.bragg,nc.
the burgers are RONALDS!!!
you are right. this is dmc's at one of his best. theres another one where he's going off on the other album. the one with king of rock on it. i forgot the name of the song but when i find it i'll hit u up. my best friend in junior high was a big run fan...i was dmc all the way..and we both loved jam master jay. one of the best live dj performers ever..
peace
Rashid Jackson brother, u must mean "Darryl & Joe"!! A joint guaranteed to make you "move ya arms and ya butt". Can any new jack make a song this bangin'? The rhymes, the beat with the instrumental interlude, the cuts and scratches... just an old hiphop Geezer's thoughts
This is my favorite track on this album. I think it's D.M.C. at his best. A very simple beat and he just blew it up with his flow and delivery!
my god this was my jam. i was like 13 and me and my boys never went anywhere without our ghettoblaster (box), and raising hell, llcoolj im bad and beastie boyz license to ill cassetes. This was one of the hardest tracks on this album. thanx for posting!!
