Hip Trip Songtext
von Smokey Robinson

Hip (hip), hey, man what′s your trip?
You say you got it all, and all
Yeah, you say you got it on the ball
Yeah, you gotta shine your black Cadillac
But the finance company's ′bout to take it back

Hip (hip), hey, man what's your trip? (Hey, man what's your trip?)
You say you got it all, and all, yeah
Say you got it on the ball
Claim you got investments here and there
Yeah, but all you really own are some of the clothes you wear

Hip (hip), oh, brother what′s your trip? (Hey, man what′s your trip?)
You say you got it all, and all, ooh
Say you got it on the ball
Sometimes you're yourself, straight and cool
But that′s the exception and not the rule

I do believe you been deceived
You sure lost your reprieve, yeah
You're foolin′ yourself
You sure ain't foolin′ nobody else


Yeah, you got credit cards, maybe fifteen or twenty
But all they've done for you is made debts of plenty

Hip (hip), ooh, what's your trip? (Hey, man what′s your trip?)
You say you got it all, and all, yeah
Say you got it on the ball
Yeah, the women say you′re a cool Casanova
Ah, but who you gonna be when the masquerade is over?

Hip (hip), hey, man what's your trip? (Hip, hip)
You say you′ve got it all, and all, oh
Say you got it on the ball
Yeah, you got all this education [?] you came out
[?] from the street corner college

I do believe you've been deceived, yeah
You sure lost your reprieve, ah
Yeah, you′re foolin' yourself
You sure ain′t foolin' nobody else, ooh

I do believe you've been deceived
You sure lost your reprieve, oh
You′re foolin′ yourself
You sure ain't foolin′ nobody else
Hip, hey, man what's your trip? Hey, man what′s your trip?


I do believe you've been deceived
You sure lost your reprieve, oh
You′re foolin' yourself
You sure ain't foolin′ nobody else
Hip, hey, man what′s your trip? Hey, man what's your trip?
