Q-Tip: Have you ever met a woman that just took your breath? So deep inside her life, she contemplated death Can't help but get attatched to a woman like that (true dat)(repeat 4X) The contact was quite immediate, I had to attack (Because you the man, yo, you know you the man) We related and debated over food and tunes Started out in September, now we enterin June (say word)(repeat 4X) Simple night in the crib, no, it just won't do (no it just won't do, no it just won't do) Because she liable to start shit that's wildin you (wildin you, wildin...) She wanna push my whip, buy diamond chips And take on trips, conversin my flip Gotta do her hair, take her out to the fair When a jake be there, make sure you don't stare At another one comin, don't be startin nuthin Be a slave to her, don't be brave to her Make sure that she's right, make sure that you're wrong When she wants to do it, make sure that it's long f anyone wanna make it work it's me (Phife Dawg help me out)(repeat 2X) But we gotta come through with common ground baby Any man, he can claim to be the one for you But put it straight to your lover in life runs true
