Don't Gotta Go Home

DMX:

No sense in whinin' 'bout it now

I mean, we knew what it was

When we became a part of it

Feel me?

(Monica:yeah)

Huh?

It's like...

Monica:

There's something on your mind

I can see right through you

I know your girl been treatin' you wrong

But she ain't no good for you

Why do you hold it inside

Boy you should let me know

I just want to make you right

I wanna be the one you can cry on

DMX:

Baby, it's like I love my wife

But we going through things and I ain't going home tonight

You got time for a *****

Or is he still with you

Wanna meet at the same spot

Or should I come and get you

A'ight, I'll be there in 10

Be in the front

I been gettin' what i need

So I'ma give you what you want

One on one

Cause you know how to talk to dog

You walk the dog and understand New York gets hard baby

CHORUS:

MONICA:

You, you ain't gotta go home tonight (DMX: Uh)

You can stay right here with me

(DMX: I ain't going nowhere, when you wake up I'm gon' be right

there)

Don't you worry 'bout a thing

(DMX: I ain't worried 'bout shhh...)

You're here with me

(DMX: Look it's like I love my wife but we're going through

things and I ain't going home tonight a'ight?)

MONICA:

It's kinda strange, that when you call (DMX: Hm)

She's never home, then you're there all alone and you deserve so

much more baby

I can treat you better than she can

It doesn't make sense to keep on loving and keep on trusting

When in return all you get is nothing

DMX:

Damn, got me ****ed up and

I'm feelin' it more

Never had a mistress this stressed before

Uh come on ma

Like it ain't that deep

Like ain't no love there

Like I don't hate when I gotta creep

(MONICA: When I gotta creep)

And go to sleep in eachothers' arms, yeah

And I feel like this is where I belong

If loving you is right then I ain't wrong

It's the same ol' song

Wife and fam, gotta be a father and husband but I'm still a good

man, baby...

CHORUS:

MONICA:

You, you ain't gotta go home tonight (DMX: Uh)

You can stay right here with me

(DMX: I ain't going nowhere, when you wake up I'm gon' be right

there)

Don't you worry 'bout a thing

(DMX: I ain't worried 'bout shhh...)

You're here with me

(DMX: Look it's like I love my wife but we're going through

things and I ain't going home tonight a'ight?)

MONICA:

The situation's gettin' critical

(DMX: Uh huh)

I watched so many tears fall

(DMX: Uh huh)

I know she's not what you want

So why you keep on holding on when...

I'm right here (DMX: What)

All you need to do is call(DMX: Yeah, what)

Don't be afraid cause she won't know at all

CHORUS (x2):

MONICA:

You, you ain't gotta go home tonight (DMX: Uh)

You can stay right here with me

(DMX: I ain't going nowhere, when you wake up I'm gon' be right

there)

Don't you worry 'bout a thing

(DMX: I ain't worried 'bout shhh...)

You're here with me

(DMX: Look it's like I love my wife but we're going through

things and I ain't going home tonight a'ight?)
