Hit the block around twenty to nine,
Checking my girl
But then I see this girl lookin’ fine, so I
Asked her if she wouldn’t mind,
Could you tell me your name and what you’re doing tonight ?
Body like nothin’ I seen,
She’s telling me she’s on the cover of GQ magazine.
Tellin’ me she had to go
So I dropped her at the spot in my four by four
So I told her
I can’t be late,
The girl’s taking up my time,
Had to hit her with a line,
So I told her
I can’t wait to freak,
See you at the same time next week.
She said
Baby give me what you got,
‘Cause I’m everything that’s she’s not.
Love is all I bring,
In my khaki suit and thing.
So honey leave your girl at home,
With your car keys, mobile phone.
Love is all I got,
All the things that make you hot
Got my woman crazy on the phone,
She’s talking bout why the f*ck my ass ain’t at home.
Had to tell her I was stuck,
In some brand new business, I was all tied up.
Told the girl I was late,
I had to rhyme.
I got to be backstage at a quarter past nine.
Telling me to change my mind
She’s like Britney Spears “Baby hit me one more time”
So I told her
I can’t be late,
The girl’s taking up my time,
Had to hit her with a line,
So I told her
I can’t wait to freak,
See you at the same time next week.
She said
Baby give me what you got,
‘Cause I’m everything that’s she’s not.
Love is all I bring,
In my khaki suit and thing.
So honey leave your girl at home,
With your car keys, mobile phone.
Love is all I got,
All the things that make you hot
