richie le - the pho song lyrics
[hook: aj rafael]
i knew from the steam it was ready
looking at that bowl, it was heavy
wait a second ’cause it’s hot right now
whether homemade or when we go out, pick it up ’cause
it’s ready, it’s, it’s ready, ready, yeah
it’s ready, it’s, it’s ready, ready, yeah
it’s ready, it’s, it’s ready, ready
baby, come and join me for a hot bowl of pho
[verse 1: richie le]
yo, it’s ready to go, a hot bowl of pho does the body good
we kept it viet though, didn’t go hollywood
no fusions, eating none other than
the same recipes that came from the motherland
chicken noodle soup of the viets, nóng quá
gotta hit the soul when i sip, thiêt mà
from hanoi to saigon, the north to the south
then introduced to the world when the war broke out
“i love you!”: something viets moms rarely say
but show that they do with the food on our plates
and who would’ve think we would be now
represented by pho to all these people?
[hook]
[verse 2: richie le]
okay, i met a pho queen from 9021-pho
in a silky áo dài, un-pho-gettable
can’t forget how she simmered the broth
while skimming the top for fatty soup, a.k.a that nước béo!
the one viet dish that i liked as a kid
nostalgic, brings me back home when i sip
the hearty beef soup, rice noodles and meat
sliced onions, with a plate of fresh picked greens
with a confidant chest, everybody claims that their mom’s is the best
c’mon, you know you’ve said it (i mean, it really is though!)
but its all in good fun
just the fam and the friends hanging out, eating pho
[hook]
[bridge: aj rafael]
sriracha on and hoisin sauce in the little white side dish for dipping, ya’ll
the broth has got flavors that don’t need hiding
i know that it’s viet, but a soup everybody loves
the cure if you’re ever hungover, so baby, won’t ya come over?
[hook]
[pause & transition]
[intro]
(mustard on the beat, ho!)
[verse 3: richie le]
came a long way from the paris by night
and karaoke every weekend
nowadays, ask parents what they like
they’ll say sbtn
mich-lle phan, nat tran, kathy nguyen
thai viet g, c-ssey ho, chris dinh
pioneered the way, i’m trying to carry it on
so any doubts that i got, i’m trying to bury them all
if you can, you should join a vsa
get cultured, you could be the bae
and learn what our parents had to go through when it came to the war, sacrifices that they made (hold up)
saigon or ho chi minh city?
either name don’t offend me
you know i made a song about pho to show love to my people so let me know if ya’ll with me (what up?)
[hook: aj rafael]
i love to get pho
i love to get that pho
when the broth be too strong
when they make it way too strong
go order, turn up, bro, pour it on up
’till i can’t even eat no more
get sleepy, wake up, then eat more pho
you know they keep it warm, let’s roll
i love to get pho
let’s-let’s, let’s roll
i love to get pho
i love, let-let-let’s roll
