Listen up destiny
I know you wanna get pressed to me
So don't be such a stone when I call you on the phone
The rock won't be using that number, too scared
Maybe what you had was broke
You wanna get high and they don't
So I had a drink posed to help me think
Now you say I've been drinkin' too much
But my hands start shakin' and my hearts starts quakin'
Like a white man playin' his cool.
And I wanna tell you
(Chorus)
Wait a minute sister
I know I ain't your mister yet
Just give me the chance and see.
But you won't even get next to me.
Whatchya wanna do now
You're gonna have to give somehow
Think I got that thing you need
But you won't even get next to me
Once I get you in my grip
Follow my eyes to your hips.
Don't you crawl away
You done it everyday.
Just stay, why don't you stay, why don't you stay, baby.
Put away your old disguise
You don't want no other guys.
We're havin' so much fun
I know you shouldn't run
But you run, you just run, you just run, baby.
(Chorus)
Wait a minute sister
I know I ain't your mister yet
Just give me the chance and see.
But you won't even get next to me.
Whatta ya want do now
You're gonna have to give somehow
Think I got that thing you need
But you won't even get next to me
Here, heart in hand.
Off the rim, what I can,
Patience, running thin.
Come on girl, let me in.
(Chorus) 2x
Wait a minute sister
I know I ain't your mister yet
Just give me the chance and see.
You won't even get next to me.
Whatchya wanna do now
You're gonna have to give somehow
Think I got that thing you need
But you won't even get next to me.
You won't get next to me.
Why
Why why why why why why whyyy
Ooh
Wait a minute.
Ooooh whoa
You won't even get next to me
