I met this girl down the block from me
Used to tell myself she was too hot for me
But then I saw her at the corner store
So I ran on overjust to grab the door
I got her number we started chillin' (hey)
We started buzzin, we got addicted
Now I
I'm the one she can't live without
I bet that's her right now
Shorty hittin' me up
Says she wanna re-up
Knows I got the best in town
'Cause when she get the shivers
She knows that I'll deliver
I'm the one that holds her down
She's about to break
Break, break, break, break
And I won't let her wait
Wait, wait, wait, wait
It's gettin' kinda late
Late, late, late, late
And she just want to shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake
One day she started texting me
Asked if she could borrow that recipe
I told her lovin' you is my specialty
She said well give it up, up.
Give it up, up.
When she's away it's such a downer
And I miss her every time I'm not around her
Cause She,
She's the one I can't live without
I hope that's her right now
Shorty hittin' me up
Says she wanna re-up
Knows I got the best in town
'Cause when she get the shivers
She knows that I'll deliver
I'm the one that holds her down
She's about to break
Break, break, break, break
And I won't let her wait
Wait, wait, wait, wait
It's gettin' kinda late
Late, late, late, late
And she just want to shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake
I'm hooked on her,
I must admit it
I'd do any
I do anything to get it
She hooked on me
A bad habit
She'd any,
She'd do anything to have it
When she calls,
I know exactly what she wants from me
Anytime I hear my phone ringin'
She wants to shake it with me
Shorty hittin' me up
Says she wanna re-up
Knows I got the best in town
'Cause when she get the shivers
She knows that I'll deliver
I'm the one that holds her down
She's about to break
Break, break, break, break
And I won't let her wait
Wait, wait, wait, wait
It's gettin' kinda late
Late, late, late, late
And she just want to shake
Shake, shake, shake, shake
