She's the apple of my eye and my potential wife
The same girl, the same girl
Man, I just can't believe that we been messin? ?round
With the same damn girl

Thought she was someone I could trust
But she's been doublin' up with both of us
You, K, man we been messin? with the same girl

Man just ask her to meet up with you and I'm gonna show up too
And she won't know what to do we'll be standin? there singin?

I can't believe it, no
(The same girl, the same girl)
