If you found that one she'll do it just one time
Akon
Trybishop
Yeah
She has no one to share all her beautiful feelings with (ooh no)
Seems like everyone around her so fake and counterfeit, yeah (ooh nah)
Trying to find the one that she can make the best of it (ooh yeah)
But it's so hard to find her a lover that she can click with (ooh nah)
So she dances and she dances through the night (oh, yeah)
Lap dances as she dances to the light (oh, yeah)
No chance for the romances in her life (oh)
But there's one man that she'll ride for
And that's Benjamin (Benjamin)
Ooh, she switches when he's in town for (Benjamin, Benjamin)
Gets so sexy when he's around for (Benjamin, Benjamin)
Oh, you should see the way that she smile for (Benjamin)
If she could have it her way, her last name would be franklin
(Please pretty darling do not cry) she loves him
(Please pretty darling do not cry) she loves him
(Please pretty darling do not cry) she loves him
If only she could love someone
The way she love Benjamin
Darling
If you found that one she'll do it just one time
If you found that one she'll do it just one time
Please pretty darling
If you found that one she'll do it just one time
Please, please love me, she said
She just gotten so used to just busting it open, she said
She just gotten so used to her heart being broken, she said
She just gotten so used to these niggas just gaming, she said
But that's the life that come with adult entertainment
Ooh yeah, no longer want to be free now (free now)
Want a man to cater her needs now (needs now)
She just wanna be treated just like a princess (ooh yeah)
But will only let one man do it
And that's Benjamin (Benjamin)
Ooh, she switches when he's in town for (Benjamin, Benjamin)
Gets so sexy when he's around for (Benjamin, Benjamin)
Oh, you should see the way that she smile for (Benjamin)
If she could have it her way, her last name would be franklin
(Please pretty darling do not cry) she loves him
(Please pretty darling do not cry) she loves him
(Please pretty darling do not cry) she loves him
If only she could love someone
The way she love Benjamin
If he drop to the floor she will pick him up
If they came to get him she won't give him up
He's the reason why she can just live it up, yeah
She love the lifestyle and can't give him up

Only man that she ever knew (yeah)
