I know you want my thing
You see I know I got a good thing
Yes I do
You see girls this man is not like other men
And the reason I say this
Is because I know every lady out there today
Feels the same thing
Every lady feels that her man is special
He's special to her
No matter how he looks baby
It's the inside that counts
It's what's up front that counts
I'm gonna tell it to you anyway
You see girls let me ask you something
Have you ever had any so called best girlfriends
You know what kind
Laugh in your face and try to take your man behind your back
You know what I'm talking about
You know where I'm coming from
But let me tell you something
Let me tell you something
I don't play around with girls like that
You know I don't really like to socialize with them
Because I feel like this
What's mine is mine
What's yours is yours
You see I don't want nothing that's yours
I don't want nothing that looks at you
You see I know I got my man
Honey I know I got him
I got every little part of him
I got him from his hair to the tip of his toe
Don't I know what I got
I know what I got
But let me tell you girls
You see when you got somebody that loves you
You know they love you
You can stand up here like me
And tell the whole wide world
That I got my man (repeat)
I can stand up and tell everybody I got him
I can stand up and tell everybody I got him
Let me hear you say I got him
Every girl say I got him
I'd like to hear you I got him
Ooh good gossip that I got him
I ain't gonna let nobody take my man away from me
I ain't gonna let nobody take my man away from me
I know how to keep him
I know how to love him
I know how to squeeze him
I know how to tease him
I get him at home at night
Yes I do, yes I do
Stand up and tell everybody I got him
(repeat)
