[JD]
Turn it up, uh, uh, uh-uh, naw, naw

[Amil] (JD)
Just cause you tricked a little dope tonight (Ow)
That don't mean you're taking me home tonight
(Uh, oh, uh-uh)
Just cause you tricked a little dope tonight (Ow)
That don't mean you're taking me home tonight

[Tamar]
Mr. First Class Baller
I've got a few things to say to you,
Right now you're getting on my nerves
With your tricking bad habit issues
Now I'm sure if I was see through
No doubt I would be laced up
But I gotta term paper due
don't get it confused
My mind is on other things not you

[Chorus: Tamar]
You can go home with your phone, blow up my cell phone
But you don't get none
You can page me but if I call back
It don't mean you goin? get none
You can buy me diamonds, nice trips on the beach
But you still don't get none
Stop trying to use cash to get you some ass
Face the facts nigga you ain't gonna get none

[Tamar]
I ain't a part-time lover
there's a couple things I just don't do
I won't be no ho and just drop my clothes
And all the silly things you're used to
So if you stepping then approach me like a lady
Or there is no me at all
I take my time, don't cross the line
Until I really know, oh
I've seen your type before
You think you got so much game
Money is everything and that's all you need to be happy
And soon you're gonna see
that's not how it should be
Until that day, boy you get nothing

[JD]
Okay if it's going like that
Let it go like this
Why you all up in the corner with me drinking my Cris
Straight laughing, talking, leading me on

[Amil]
Huh? No that was your ass reading me wrong

[JD]
Now ma, come on, you act like I'm the broke type
You can't be serious

[Amil]
What? Acting like I'm the ho type
Just cause you tricked a little dope tonight
That don't mean you're taking me home tonight

[JD]
Shit is that right?

[Amil]
that's right! Get your act tight
And press your brakes, put on your back lights

[JD]
But what you saying, I'm playing
And I ain't goin? get it
I'm the man girl look at how quick I got your digits

[Amil]
Hold that's just my pager

[JD]
I know that I'm saying

[Amil]
But if you know that you know I ain't got to call you back
Poppin' Cris all night like I'ma fall for that (uh-huh)
You need more that to pull a baller's act nigga (turn it up)

[Chorus: Repeats]
