Fuh Dee hoe...

Hey, hey, hey, cut that out!

I found out what

y'all been saying.

That's enough of that.

You done got me as

an accomplice in this nonsense.

Everybody in Dallas

yelling that mess.

You knew what the hell

they was saying.

Man, "red dogs" on three.

One, two, three.

Red dogs!

I'm back in this b*tch

with a vengeance

And no, I'm not

here by mistake

I'm hungry,

I'm just here to eat

And I see it's

a lot on the plate...

Carter Cowboys

are the state 5A champions.

State champs, baby.

A Dallas team has not won

the state championship

since 1950.

Feeling proud right about now.

'Cause we-we went through

some hard times to get here.

Feeling proud.

We knew if we kept playing

football that we would be here,

but we didn't know

about all the UIL stuff.

That's the only thing that's

kept us out of here is UIL.

And now we're here,

and we did it.

Thinking about it,

having fun and...

I'm ready to just jump off

the top of the building,

hang from up there right quick.

CC, too bad, too bold

Oh

CC, too bad, too bold

Oh

CC, too bad, too bold

- Oh...

- Hey.

All right, all right,

all right, all right.

I just want to say...

just want to say this.

As that clock was counting down,

I realized...

what I wanted...

out of coaching

after all these years.

This championship means a lot.

But what I want...

what I need...

is for you all to leave here...

and be successful.

Be successful in every

endeavor of your lives.

Now listen to me, boys.

This is not the end.

This is just a beginning.

And I want to...

I want to thank you...

from the bottom of my heart.

So, "champions" on three.

One, two...

Whoa, whoa-whoa, Coach.

Come on in.

No, come on in.

Come on in.

Come on in here.

Come on in here.

Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.

Listen. Listen, boys.

This gentleman...

this gentleman right here...

fought for us...

in the courtrooms...

so we could continue

to fight on the field.

Please.

Guys...

you're fighting

for what's right.

There's a goal of team sports,

and you all have

accomplished that goal.

To see so many young men

face and overcome the adversity

that you all have

is nothing short of a miracle.

You all have made

so many people proud.

Including myself.

- Yeah. Yeah!

- Right.

Carter High, thank you

for a hell of a season.

A hell of a season!

Yeah!

Whoa, hold on, hold on now.

Hold on.

Okay.

I would like to say

on behalf of Carter High

and the Carter High football

team, thank you, okay?

And from one great defense

to another defense,

I would like to present you

with the game ball.

CC!

Oh, oh, no, no,

you got to join us.

- Come on, Royce.

- Come on in here now.

"Champions" on three!

One, two, three, champions!

Oh

CC, too bad, too bold

Oh, CC

Too bad, too bold

Oh

CC, too bad, too bold

Oh

CC, too bad, too bold

Oh, CC

Too bad, too bold

Oh

But I can hook y'all up, though.

More bounce

Jungle boogie

Jungle boogie

Relax your mind,

let your conscience be free

And get down

to the sounds of EPMD

Well, you should keep quiet

while the MC rap

But if you tired,

then go take a nap

Or stay awake and watch

the show I take

Because right now,

I'm about to shake and bake

The E-R-I-C-K

is my name I spell

Thanks to the clientele,

yo, I rock well

I'm not an MC

who talking all that junk

About who can beat who,

sounding like a punk

I just get down,

and I go for mine

Say "check one, two,"

and run down the line

To the average MC

I'm known as the Terminator

Funky beat maker,

new jack exterminator

Destroy and employ

When your rhymes

are not void

Never sweatin'

your girl... why, P?

'Cause she's a skeezoid

When I'm on the scene

I always rock the spot

I grab the steel

with the crown on top.

Get your ass back in there

and don't say a word.

Hey, man, PK, chill out

before they find out

you in on this, man.

What you doing?

What's up with the pantyhose?

I told y'all to wear

stocking caps, man.

Hey, PK. For real, man.

This is your bright-ass idea

anyway.

- Okay, okay, okay, okay.

- You owe us, man.

- For real, man, come on.

- Okay.

Y'all sure is takin' a long time

gettin' this place cleaned up.

Maybe if we had a little help...

Any time the manager leave, you
