Boy
Oh, killing me softly and I'm still fallin'
Still the one I need, I will always be with you
Whoa, you got me all gone, don't ever let me go
Say it real loud if you fly
If you leave me you're out of your mind
My baby is a (ten)
We dressing to the (nine)
He pick me up, we (eight)
Make me feel so lucky (seven)
He kiss me in his (six)
We be making love in (five)
Still the one I do this (four)
I'm trying to make us (three)
From that (two)
He's still the (one)
There's ups and downs in this love
Got a lot to learn in this love
Through the good and the bad, still got love
Dedicated to the one I love, hey
Still love the way he talk, still love the way I sang
Still love the way he rock them black diamonds in that chain
Still all up on each other, ain't a damn thing changed
My girls can't tell me nothing, I'm gone in the brain
I'm all up under him like it's cold, winter time
All up in the kitchen in my heels, dinner time
Do whatever that it takes, you gotta win his mind
Give it all to him, meet him at the finish line
Me and my boo and my boo, boo ridin'
All up in that black with his chick right beside him
Ladies, if you love your man show him you the fliest
Grind up on it, girl, show him how you ride it
Me and my boo and my boo, boo ridin'
All up in that black with his chick right beside him
Ladies, if you love your man show him you the fliest
Grind up on it, girl, show him how you ride it
Oh, killing me softly and I'm still fallin'
Still the one I need, I will always be with you
Whoa, you got me all gone, don't ever let me go
Say it real loud if you fly
If you leave me you out of ya mind
My baby is a (ten)
We dressing to the (nine)
He pick me up, we (eight)
Make me feel so lucky (seven)
He kiss me in his (six)
We be making love in (five)
Still the one I do this (four)
I'm trying to make us (three)
From that (two)
He's still the (one)
Yup, I put it on him, it ain't nothing that I can't do
Yup, I buy my own, if he deserve it, buy his shit too
All up in the store, shawty, trickin' if I want to
All up in the store, shawty, fly as we want to
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Damn I think I love that boy
Do anything for that boy
Boy (ooh ooh ooh ooh)
Now I'll never be the same
It's you and me until the end
Me and my boo, and my boo, boo, ridin'
All up in that black with his chick right beside him
Ladies, if you love your man show him you the fliest
Grind up on it, girl, show him how you ride it
Me and my boo, and my boo lip lockin'
All up in the back cause the chicks keep flockin'
All that gossip in 10 years stop it!
London speed it up, Houston rock it!
Oh, killing me softly and I'm still fallin'
Still the one I need, I will always be with you
Whoa, you got me all gone, don't ever let me go
Say it real loud if you fly
If you leave me you're out of your mind
My baby is a (ten)
We dressing to the (nine)
He pick me up, we (eight)
Make me feel so lucky (seven)
He kiss me in his (six)
We be making love in (five)
Still the one I do this (four)
I'm trying to make us (three)
From that (two)
He's still the (one)
