I went out last night
See, that's when I met a sexy little girl
She was lookin' so right
She said, "I wanna take you for a trip around the world"
And by the look in her eyes, ho
The girl was serious
She wore no disguise, oh, no
So let's have some fun, yeah
(I thought it was me) I thought it was me who makes the girl this way
(I thought it was me) I came to find out she's like that every day
(I thought it was me) I thought it was me that makes that girl so wild
(I thought it was me) I found out she's like that with all the guys
Yo', I love bein' a bachelor
Ricky said, "Yo', that girl's a good catch for ya"
She and I choose to cruise in my love boat
My waterbed kept us afloat
I had to prove my manhood
Show her that the B-I-V was damn good, understood
I never had my boat rocked like that before, yo'
The way we left the spot
All systems ready to go
She said, "Sit back and relax
I'm runnin' the show"
I couldn't hesitate
It was much too late
That girl had got me straight
And I was ready to go, yeah
B-B-D (B.B.D.)
B-B-D (B.B.D.)
Yo' Ron, what's up with at
Fly girl you love to jam with
She's stickin' closer to you
Then the bread on the meat of my sandwich
I know you rock a beach cuz
Naw, it wasn't even like that
She left the room to get comfy and cozy
Then the R to the O to the N got nosey
Cruising guys wore favorite past-time
Takin' chances almost got her lifetime
She said, "You only live once"
Stayin' loose, made many head turns
If you did her wrong, you just might get burned
So let's have some fun, yeah
(I thought it was me) I thought it was me that makes the girl this way
(I thought it was me) I came to find out she's like that every day
(I thought it was me) I thought it was me that makes that girl so wild
(I thought it was me) I found out she's like that with all the guys
(I thought it was me) I thought it was me that makes the girl this way
(I thought it was me) I came to find out she's like that every day
(I thought it was me) I thought it was me that makes that girl so wild
(I thought it was me) I found out she's like that with all the guys
(I thought it was me) I thought it was me, ho, yeah, yeah
(I thought it was me) I came to find out she's like that every day
(I thought it was me) I thought it was me that makes that girl so wild
(I thought it was me) I found out she's like that with all the guys
(I thought it was me) I thought it was me that makes the girl this way
I came to find out she's like that every day
I thought it was me that makes that girl so wild
I found out she's like that with all the guys
I thought it was me, ho, yeah, yeah
I thought it was me, ooh
I thought it was me, ho, yeah, yeah
