These Streets

You know

I can still remember when it was just me and you

suddenly it turn you and your crew

forget everything bout your boo

I wish you woulda treat me like ya glock

I woulda love it if you keep me pon cock

I wish you woulda treat me like ya yacht

keep me wet while the waves them a rock

Why can't you stay pon me like the corner

and keep your lips pon me like your marijuana

I woulda love it if you treat me like a club

stay up inna me whole night just a bump'n grind'n rub

Bridge: You don't understand what your woman needs from her man

While you deh pon di streets all the time

just bear this in mind

whoa-oa

Chorus: These streets don't love you like I do

you need fi know that

you wanna keep your woman loving you

and you need fi show that

the love we have it take so much effort fi build

you about fi blow that

but just like a played out jersey

you about fi get throw back!

I wish you woulda treat me like a ounce

me know ya nah leggo that when yuh bounce

You shouldda deh home knock boots like ya timbs

need fi act older than the size of ya rims

I wish you woulda stay pon me like ya phone man

and never leave the house wit out me like ya crome man

Boy I wish you woulda treat me like ya whips

your girl's a perfect ten but your benz them only a 5 and a 6

Bridge: You don't understand what your woman needs from her man

While you deh pon di streets all the time

just bear this in mind

Chorus: These streets don't love you like I do

you need fi know that

you wanna keep your woman loving you

and you need fi show that

the love we have well it take so much effort fi build

you about fi blow that

but just like a played out jersey

you about fi get throw back!

Now the Feds have them case

and they gavel up pound

me a look fi a familiar face, me nah see none around

When ya call me collect and give me errands fi do

mi nah see nah hot gal, me nah see none of your crew

Government sieze everything, the Gs everything

and another baller dun take over di spot

a run, trees everything the keys everything

and 10 thousand money's is all you got

Sayin, now you understand

what I was tryin to say to my man

why you dey an dere pon the grind, you shoulda bear this in mind

Say di streets dem nah give a damn, bundiddlydung

a just a place where ya peddle pon (need fi know that)

You fall in love with the corner, you can't say me never warn ya (and ya need fi show that)

These streets don't love you like I do

yuh know these streets don't love you,

and oh these streets can't hug you

These streets don't love you like I do...
