I remember it well, but can't say as I was a real big fan of it. He is often branded as a one hit wonder for that song, but I know he had others as I remember when he was popular :)

I loved it! I'm singing it now. I loved when they used it on Friends. The one with Ross' inappropriate song.

I'm probably wrong here, but this is as I remember it...
I like big butts and I cannot lie
so I ask you, officer, why?
Why you wanna mess with a brother like Mix
when you know that I'm driving legit?

I don't blame you...I got the words totally wrong! ;D
...well, apart from the first line.
Maybe it'll help if you listen to this.
And here's the clip for "One Time's Got no Case".

This is great candidate for misheard lyrics
Oh My God Becky!
Look at her butt
It- is- so- big
She looks like one of those black guys girlfriends
I don't get those black guys
They only talk to her because she looks like a total prostitute
It's so big, its just so round, its just so Black
I like big butts and I cannot lie
You other brothers can't deny
When a girl walks in with a itty bitty waist
and a round thing in your face
I get sprung
Cuz you noticed that butt was stuffed
and a G she's wearin'
I'm hooked and I can't stop starin'
Oh baby I wanna get witcha
and take your picture
My homeboys tried to warn me
but that butt you got makes me so horny
Oh Rumple-smooth-skin
You say you wanna get in my Benz
Well use me, use me
cuz you ain't that average groove B
I see us dancin'
To hell with romancin'
She's sweat, wet
Got it goin' like a turbo vette
I'm tired of magazines
Sayin' flat butts are the things
Take the average black man and ask him
She gotta pack much back
So fellas! (YEAH!)
Fellas? (YEAH)
Does your girlfriend got the butt? (HELL YEAH!)
Shake it, (shake it)
Shake it (shake it)
Shake that healthy butt
Baby got back
(LA Thin with and Oakland Booty) repeat
I like em round and big
When I'm a gig
I just can't help myself
I'm actin'' like an animal
Now here's scandal
I wanna get you home and Uh (*grunt*)
Double up Uh, Uh (*grunt, grunt*)
I ain't talkin' about playboy
cuz silicone parts are made for toys
I want em real thick and juicy
So find that juicy double
Mix-a-lot's in trouble
Beggin' for a piece of that bubble
So I'm lookin' at rock videos
Knock-kneed bimbos walkin' like ho's
You can keep them bimbos
I'll have my women like Flo Jo
A word to the thick soul sisters
I wanna get with ya
I won't cuss or hit ya
But I gotta be straight when I say
I wanna hyhuh until the break of dawn
Baby I got it goin' on
A lotta simps won't like this song
And those punks would like to hit and quit em
But I'd rather stay and play
I'm long and I'm strong
And I'm down to get the friction on
So ladies! (Yeah!)
Ladies? (YEAH!)
If you wanna roll in my Mercedes! (Yeah!)
Then turn around, stick it out
Even White boys got to shout
Baby Got Back
Yeah Baby-
When comes to females
Cosmo's got nuthin' to do with my selection
36-24-36?
Uh-huh!
Only if she's five-three
So your girlfriend rolls her Honda
Playin' workout tapes by Fonda
But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda
My I don't want none
unless you got buns hon
You can do side bends or sit ups
But please don't lose that butt
Some brothers wanna play that hard role
And tell that the butt and gold
So they toss it and leave it
And I pull up quick to retrieve it
So Cosmo says you're fat
Well I ain't down with that
Your waist is small and your curves are kickin'
And I'm thinkin' about stickin...
To the B-boy things in the magazines
You ain't it Miss Thing
Give me a sista I can't resist her
Red beans and rice didn't miss her
Some knuckle head tried to diss
Cuz these girls are on my list
He had game but he chose to hit em
And I pulled up quick to get wit em
So ladies if the butt is round
And you wanna triple X slow down
Well dial 1-900-Mix-ALOT
And kick them nasty thoughts
Baby got back!
(Little in the middle but she's got much back)

Tell me about it. Since when was the vernacular permissible? If you wanna get the lyrics right, you gotta translate from the original source, in Latin.
mehercle! Rebecca, ecce! tantae clunes isti sunt!
(By Hercules! Rebecca, behold! Such large buttocks she has!)
magnae clunes mihi placent, nec possum de hac re mentiri...
(Large buttocks are pleasing to me, nor am I able to lie concerning this matter...)

I first heard of Sir Mix-A-Lot in 1987, when KZZP started playing "Square Dance Rap" (featuring Kid Sensation). It's the b-side to the 12" Single "I'm A Trip".
I drop some Sir Mix-A-Lot in my show from time to time. 8)

I am worrying did the BBC Radio ban the playing of this record on their stations.
