8701
Man it's been a long time coming
But I never forgot about you
I'm here
Yeah, we've traveled the world
Seen a lot of places, so many faces
We had a good time - we've grown together
Who would've thought we'd stay down this long, heh?
This is my chance to share my world with you
And I know you're gonna like it
Are you ready?

. . .



Yo, I ain't seeing you in a minute, but I got something to tell ya, listen.

See the thing about you, that caught my eye,
Is the same thing that makes me change, my mind.
Kinda hard to explain, but girl, I'll try.
You need to sit down, this may take a while.
You see, she sorta looks, just like you.
She even smiles, just the way you do.
So innocent, she seemed, but I was schooled
I'm reminded when I look at you, but,

You remind of a girl, that I once knew.
See her face whenever I, I look at you.
You won't believe all of the things that she put me through.
This is why I just can't get with you.

Thought that she was the one for me,
Til I found out she was on her dream,
Oh, she was sexing everyone, but me.
This is why we could never be.

You remind of a girl, that I once knew.
See her face whenever I, I look at you.
You won't believe all of the things that she put me through.
This is why I just can't get with you.

I know it's so unfair to you,
But I'd be lingering the rest to you,
Wish I knew, wish I knew how to separate the two
You remind me, whoa...

You remind of a girl, that I once knew.
See her face whenever I, I look at you.
You won't believe all of the things that she put me through.
This is why I just can't get with you.

You remind of a girl, that I once knew.
See her face whenever I, I look at you.
You won't believe all of the things that she put me through.
This is why I just can't get with you.

[P. Diddy]
Check this out, yeah, yeah
All my niggas take a walk with me
You ain't gotta holla - you can talk with me
Just try to learn where my thoughts can be
And how I stack figures
Learn why I'm real - still that nigga
I get money I ain't gotta do a crime
Shit I hit dimes - what I need with a nine
Before y'all judge me - be clear
We got nothing but heat here, beware WE HERE
What's my name, got chicks twisted like
What's my game?
Pimp things still the same
I smash it, I don't harass it
Ma' I'm a baller I score and pass it
Feel me, still be filthy
If making hits is a crime, I plead guilty
And this is what we came do
Party, Diddy, Usher - game is through, come on

[Usher]
It's right around eleven o'clock
One of your girls just called
Asked you how you look, are you ready?
You tell her you look hot
Not to worry at all
Niggas will be shook - y'all doin' it heavy
She;s telling you she might change
But you tell her not to
She know that she looks stunning
It'll be fine
The club will be full of game
But none of that has got'chu
Me - I think you're running
Cause I'm the one

I don't know what you came to do girl
What you came to do tonight
But I came to party, oh
I don't know what you came to do girl
What you came to do tonight
But I came to party, oh

You're probably thinking to yourself 
What's the occasion?
And believe me girl I don't do sex for fun
The perfect gentleman in every situation
And the only thing that's missing - is the one
Is it you?

I don't know what you came to do girl
What you came to do tonight
But I came to party, oh
I don't know what you came to do girl
What you came to do tonight
But I came to party, oh

Sing it
(La, la, la, la)
Ghetto girls
(La, la, la, la)
Suburban girls
(La, la, la, la)
International girls - smell me?
(La, la, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
Ghetto girls
(La, la, la, la)
Suburban girls
(La, la, la, la)
International girls - smell me?
(La, la, la, la, la)

Had to take the time
To open up your mind
That's exactly what you are - open
Look at the mesmorizing grind
She should be a crime
Damn baby you're a star
You're smoking

You're probably thinking to yourself 
What's the occasion?
And believe me girl I don't do sex for fun
The perfect gentleman in every situation
And the only thing that's missing - is the one
Is it you?

I don't know what you came to do girl
What you came to do tonight
But I came to party, oh
I don't know what you came to do girl
What you came to do tonight
But I came to party, oh

Sing it
(La, la, la, la)
Ghetto girls
(La, la, la, la)
Suburban girls
(La, la, la, la)
International girls - smell me?
(La, la, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
Ghetto girls
(La, la, la, la)
Suburban girls
(La, la, la, la)
International girls - smell me?
(La, la, la, la, la)

It's real serious
You're so fine girl
At the end of the day - I'm going home with you

I don't know what you came to do girl
What you came to do tonight
But I came to party, oh
I don't know what you came to do girl
What you came to do tonight
But I came to party, oh

. . .



Yo.. check this here

So why don't we just chill
Make it coco sexy, you know

Spend some quality time

You make me wanna cha cha cha...

Oh baby, you sure like to
Nah nah nah nah nah... nah nah nah nah nah
We've been hangin' out everyday this week
How about I fix you a little something to eat
And just chill, we got a while, right now just chill
Parle lil' momma, right here
Sippin' on Chardonnay 
Slip on that Victoria Secret lingerie
Cause I ain't gonna throw my money away
If I can see you talk it out for me

1 - (Talk'n it out)
Layin' in the cut
Kissing and rubbin, makin' sweet lovin'
Damn the club tonight 
Girl let's work it out (It'll be)
Just me on you (All night) 
From eleven 'til six in the morning
I know you like when I do you like that 
Just work it out

Now that I got you all soaking wet
I bet you know what's coming next (You)
Gonna twerk it out
Ah baby, let me tell you how 
What do you think about me
Twerkin' it from your front to your back 
And kickback, relax come sit here on my lap, shorty
Tonight I'm takin' you all the way
Won't stop until you scream my name

Repeat 1
Repeat 1

Morning is coming and I dont want to let you go
Let's just lay her in this bed of red rose pedals
I know that we spent but one kiss 
Could make this start all over again
If you want it baby, come with me

It's way to trill the way you making it feel 
The way you twerkin' is oh so sexy
Oh baby, you sure love the part
It's way to trill the way you making it feel

Oh baby you sure love the part

Repeat 1
Repeat 1

Damn the club tonight girl 
Let's work it out
Let me work it
I wont hurt it
I know you like when I do you like that 
Just work it out

Repeat 1 until fade

. . .


Oh, no, no, no, no, no...

When you feel it in your body
You found somebody who makes you change your ways
Like hanging with your crew
Said you act like you're ready
But you don't really know
And everything in your past - you wanna let it go

I've been there, done it, fucked around
After all that - this is what I found
Nobody wants to be alone
If you're touched by the words in this song
Then baby...

U got, u got it bad
When you're on the phone
Hang up and you call right back
U got, u got it bad
If you miss a day without your friend
Your whole life's off track
You know you got it bad when you're stuck in the house
You don't wanna have fun
It's all you think about
U got it bad when you're out with someone
But you keep on thinkin' bout somebody else
U got it bad

When you say that you love 'em
And you really know
Everything that used to matter, don't matter no more
Like my money, all my cars
(You can have it all back)
Flowers, cards and candy
(I do it just cause I'm...)
Said I'm fortunate to have you girl
I want you to know
I really adore you
All my people who know what's going on
Look at your mate, help me sing my song
Tell her I'm your man, you're my girl
I'm gonna tell it to the whole wide world
Ladies say I'm your girl, you're my man
Promise to love you the best I can

See I've been there, done it, fucked around
After all that - this is what I found
Everyone of y'all are just like me
It's too bad that you can't see
That you got it bad...hey

U got, u got it bad
When you're on the phone
Hang up and you call right back
U got, u got it bad
If you miss a day without your friend
Your whole life's off track
You know you got it bad when you're stuck in the house
You don't wanna have fun
It's all you think about
U got it bad when you're out with someone
But you keep on thinkin' bout somebody else
U got it bad

[breakdown:]

U got, u got it bad
When you're on the phone
Hang up and you call right back
U got, u got it bad
If you miss a day without your friend
Your whole life's off track
You know you got it bad when you're stuck in the house
You don't wanna have fun
It's all you think about
U got it bad when you're out with someone
But you keep on thinkin' bout somebody else
U got it bad

Hello everybody, huh
Welcome today to the wonderful world of...you, he-heh
Now check it, you have two options
You can eat it or throw it away, heh

See its a shame when you're working on doing well
People hate you yeah
Buying nothing that's not the best for yourself
Then they really hate you yeah
You gotta live for you and no one else
Don't let 'em make you feel
Like you're not being real
Just live how you wanna live
You gotta do for you

(Dig that)
If you work hard then play hard
(Dig that)
And do what you wanna do
(Dig that)
Just pop ya collar
Don't let what people say bother you
(Dig that)
You perpetrators I got something to say
(Dig that)
You can eat it or throw it away
(Picture that)
You're just mad cause you're following in my trap
But can you dig that?

1 - Hey ladies and my fellas
You know you're doing cause they jealous
(Pop, pop)
And when they hate cause you're a go-getter
(Pop, pop)
Pop ya colla, don't let 'em sweat you
(Pop)

Repeat 1

You can see me every week
Hanging out with a different girl sitting next to me
Cause I'm not up to settle down right now
I gotta be free
Some of y'all fellas might be jealous
But y'all know that don't phase me
I just pop my collar, tip my hat
Turn my back on the ones that hated me

(Dig that)
Never going home alone
(Dig that)
If she follows then you know it's on
(Dig that)
She gets the finger not the cellular phone
(Never that)
I let her know I won't be around for long
(Dig that)
To all you haters I got something to say
(What's that?)
You can eat it or throw it away
(Picture that)
Stop hating, wishing, waiting
Anticipating for my year to fade, oh yea

Repeat 1 (2x)

I break my neck for the things I get
So much sweat just so I can get that check
And I'm not gonna let nobody bring me down
Nobody's gonna steal my crown
Because I eat good, I live good
I rock good, my life's good
If you got a lot and you're working for it
Pop ya collar don't be afraid to show it

Repeat 1 (4x)

. . .



[Usher] (JD)
Every time I look up 
I see it in your face
You wanna hook up with me
(You know you wanna hook up - stop playing)
Instead of acting like you supposed to
You cop an attitude like you're good for me
And you know good and damn well that...

If I want to - I can take you from your man
With my eyes closed
I can have you eating out the palm out of my hand
And all your little girl friends to
(No you can't - you're a playa I don't want you)
Yes I can and I will if I - if I want to
If I - if I want to baby

Ain't nobody tryna clown you
But you're too damn old to play high school games with me
(You know that - too damn old)
Yes you do
Cause even when I'm not around you
I hear from my friends you be asking 'bout me
(What's up with him - that's what you be saying)

I don't really care
How long you've been together with your man?
It's just a matter of time
Before I make you mine
I wanna make it clear
So there's no misunderstandings
That I get what I want - when I want, yeah

If I want to - I can take you from your man
With my eyes closed
I can have you eating out the palm out of my hand
And all your little girl friends to
(No you can't - you're a playa I don't want you)
Yes I can and I will if I - if I want to
If I - if I want to baby

If I want to - I can take you from your man
With my eyes closed
I can have you eating out the palm out of my hand
And all your little girl friends to
(No you can't - you're a playa I don't want you)
Yes I can and I will if I - if I want to
If I - if I want to baby

(Yeah, uh - oh)
That I get what I want - when I want
If I wanted to

(If I wanted to - I'd have you doing whatever I want you to)
(You know - right now I'm just not really doing that)
(But if I wanted to - anything)
(I'm saying - you and your girls, I could have them too)
Listen to me!

If I want to - I can take you from your man
With my eyes closed
I can have you eating out the palm out of my hand
And all your little girl friends to
(No you can't - you're a playa I don't want you)
Yes I can and I will if I - if I want to
If I - if I want to baby

. . .



[JD]
Yo, shit

Repeat 1 & 2

. . .



Yo after tonight
Don't have your girl around me
True playa for real
Ask my nigga Pharrell

Situations will arise
In our lives
But U got to be smart about it
Celebrations with the guys
I sacrified
'Cause I knew U could not sleep without it
Meanwhile I...
I loved U
U were my girl
U see I...
Thought the world of U
But you're still leavin' baby

U don't have to call
It's okay girl
'Cause I'm gonna be alright tonight (2x)

Aw girl
Your face is sayin' why
Tears in eyes
Should've been more smart about it
Should've cherished me
Listenin' to friends, now it's the end
And again
No story can end without it
Damn right I loved U
You were my girl
U see I...
Thought the world of U
But you're still leavin' baby

U don't have to call
It's okay girl
I'm gonna be alright tonight

Gonna boogie tonight
'Cause I'm honestly too young of a guy
To stay home
Waitin for love
So tonight
I'm gonna do what a single man does
And that's party

U don't have to call
It's okay girl
I'm gonna be alright tonight (3x)

Gonna boogie tonight
'Cause I'm honestly too young of a guy
To stay home
Waitin for love
I'm gonna do what a single man does
And that's party

U don't have to call
It's okay girl
I'm gonna be alright tonight (3x)

. . .



Love, such a lonely place
Nobody wants to be alone
To have the world but no one to share it with

I'm so alone
I can't stand this feeling of being without you
Yes I'll do 
Whatever it takes to prove I truly love you
Don't let me go
Let's stay together, forever and ever
Can't sleep without you by my side, help me

. . .



Living on an edge, out of control
And the world won't just let myself down
But in my biggest picture was the photo of you & me
Girl, you know I tried
I work hard to provide all of the material things 
That I thought will make you happy
I'm confused, can you make me understand
Cause I tried to give you the best of me
I thought we cool, maybe I was blind
But never took time to see

1 - Will you help me
Tell me what you want from me
Can you help me
Tell me why you wanna leave
Baby help me
Without you my whole world is fallin' apart 
And I'm going crazy
Life's so crazy when you're in love for long
(Ooh girl I love you)
I need you to come back home
(You know I need you)
I don't want to be alone

Girl, I'll put your love up on the shelf
And I guess I'm just left here to die
Now we're not together
Cause I hurt you too many times
Now you're not around
I wish for every moment of time that got wasted 
We used to make sweet love
Baby be my guide, please take my hand
Want you to know that I got you if you need it
I don't want to be on the outside looking in
I got have you girl, can't you see?

Repeat 1

Give me another chance, I want to be your man
Girl you got me down here on my knees
Crying, beggin' please, I'll do anything for your love
Oh

Repeat 1

Can you help me
Tell me why, why, why, why, why
Can you help me
Girl I'll never stop cause you're all I got
Can you help me
Help me understand why I can't be your man
Driving me crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy
Oh baby, oh oh-oh
(Oh girl I love you)
Said I love you
(You know I need you)
Oooh I need you
(Can't live without you)
I cant go one day without you

repeat...

. . .



A foreign beauty so exotic
When she smiled at me
She took my breath away
She's reminiscent of a goddess
It's a shame that we could not communicate
How do I say

How do I say hello?
I just wanna talk to you
How do I say you're beautiful
When I can't take my eyes off you
I don't wanna say the wrong thing
I want just the right words to impress you
Mujer bonita, how do I say, how do I say?

How do I say?
The room was filled with a sweet arom
When she danced her hips moved oh so sensuous
She speaks with her body, so united
In the language that I will never forget

I hear her calling
Spinning around in the crowd cause she found me
And when she started moving closer and closer
Does she know that i want her, I want her
I wanna be with her tonight
So I caressed her face, kissed her lips
In my life, I've never felt like this
I've never had a lost for words
One kiss from her has got me feenin'

How do I say hello?
I just wanna talk to you
How do I say you're beautiful
When I can't take my eyes off you
I don't wanna say the wrong thing
I want just the right words to impress you
Mujer bonita, how do I say, how do I say?

How do I say hello?
I just wanna talk to you
How do I say you're beautiful
When I can't take my eyes off you
I don't wanna say the wrong thing
I want just the right words to impress you
Mujer bonita, how do I say, how do I say?

(breakdown)

How do I say hello?
I just wanna talk to you
How do I say you're beautiful
When I can't take my eyes off you
I don't wanna say the wrong thing
I want just the right words to impress you
Mujer bonita, how do I say, how do I say?

. . .



I've been looking at you
Turning brothers down
Some got their song
Well its time for me to holla now
(Your body is calling, don't fight it)
Ooh I like it

You're dancing all alone
What's that all about?
You're so fine
But it's time for me to call you out
(Watch out, I'll straight run up on ya)
Girl I want ya

You're the hottest thing
In the club tonight
Having visions of making love tonight
With you constantly
To the break dawn
We can shake the spot
If you say it's on

Dancing so close
Got me up like whoa
We're doing the most
Is living with you possible?
(Your body is saying you want to)
And I want you, oh baby
More than you know sugar
If only for one night
I'll make you feel
Like you've been to paradise
It's all up to you - tell me something baby
I know one thing

You're the hottest thing
In the club tonight
Having visions of making love tonight
With you constantly
To the break dawn
We can shake the spot
If you say it's on

You're the hottest thing
In the club tonight
Having visions of making love tonight
With you constantly
To the break dawn
We can shake the spot
If you say it's on

Baby tell me
What's on your mind?
Do you think that I'm being too forward
Oh baby by coming at you, this way
I can't help myself, you're... 

You're the hottest thing
In the club tonight
Having visions of making love tonight
With you constantly
To the break dawn
We can shake the spot
If you say it's on

. . .



Yeah let me holla at you real quick
I'mma bring y'al back to the good ol' good ol days
Ya feel me?
Some of that...

Good ol, good ol, good old ghetto, good ol
Good ol, good ol ghetto
Good ol, good ol ghetto, ghetto, ghetto
Good ol...heh

I told my man I'm having a barbecue
So grab some folks and won't you slide right through
He brought this shorty that I used to know
It brought me back to when I was in school
She said Usher where have you been?
We used to kick it every now and then
Remember when I used to call your phone
Tell you come on cause my mother's gone
How about them times I had to throw
A rock at your window
To let you know to come downstairs
And open the door
And after that baby it was on fa'sure

Honey got my head spinnin' around for real
Cause I'm thinking 'bout how good you used to feel
And I got a girl now and I don't get down like this, huh
But I must admit I'm tempted and startin' to reminisce, cause

Ay yo, ay yo, ay yo
Ain't nothing like some good ol' ghetto
Ay yo, ay yo, ay yo
Ain't nothing like some good ol' ghetto
Ay yo, ay yo, ay yo
Ain't nothing like some good ol' ghetto
Ay yo, ay yo, ay yo
Ain't nothing like some good ol' ghetto

Now she's asking me to take her
On a tour of my house so we can catch up
For all the time lost since I blew up
And became the man that drops his pants
And every girl around the world is dying to love
Break the beat down
Let me tell you what I'm talking about
If you're not carefull it'll turn you out
It's that way she used to go
When you want it nice and slow
Even though you can't 
The memory will make you want some mo'
She used to understand me
Touch me, hold me, taught me how to be a man
She used to kiss me all them things she used to show me
Damn I wish that I could do it again

Honey got my head spinnin' around for real
Cause I'm thinking 'bout how good you used to feel
But I got a girl now and yo she's right upstairs
But I must admit I'm tempted and startin' to not care, cause...

Ay yo, ay yo, ay yo
Ain't nothing like some good ol' ghetto
Ay yo, ay yo, ay yo
Ain't nothing like some good ol' ghetto
Ay yo, ay yo, ay yo
Ain't nothing like some good ol' ghetto
Ay yo, ay yo, ay yo
Ain't nothing like some good ol' ghetto

Never had somebody that's as bad
Somebody with a whole lot of body
That'll choose, make you wanna leave the one you with
Cause you know how good it is
Not a prissy, lil' missy baby, talk that slang
I used to love how she kissed me when she popped that thang
She was a friend of the fam
Hot without the glam, not
When I be trippin'
She didn't really give a damn, stop
It's what I need to do
Cause I know what's this is leading to
If I keep on thinkin' bout that back
I'mma be right back in it cause yo

Ay yo, ay yo, ay yo
Ain't nothing like some good ol' ghetto
Ay yo, ay yo, ay yo
Ain't nothing like some good ol' ghetto
Ay yo, ay yo, ay yo
Ain't nothing like some good ol' ghetto
Ay yo, ay yo, ay yo
Ain't nothing like some good ol' ghetto

. . .


Yeah, ay yo
2000 it's us
Yo, it's time to U-Turn
Ya heard me?
You're either with us - or against us, yo

It's been some years now
Since we hit the floor to get down
We always had a step to go with the sound
Now everybody wanna sit around, drink and ball
Remember, the snake
And how the floor used to clear
And everybody would break
What's crunk now used to be called getting to it
We're bringing it all back
This is how we do it, just

Put your hands up, bend your knees
Bounce around in a circle, get down with me
Oh come on, come on
It's not hard to learn
Come on, come on
It's called the U-Turn

Put your hands up, bend your knees
Bounce around in a circle, get down with me
Oh come on, come on
It's not hard to learn
Come on, come on
It's called the U-Turn

In the 80s, fresh was the talk
MJ had everybody doing the moonwalk
In the 90s, I had a high flat top
Doing the wop, Pee Wee to the Reebok
I can't forget about my high school days
The sound was Bobby Brown
The dance was the running man
Now everybody wanna push Bentley's
The year is 2 - everybody do the U-Turn

Put your hands up, bend your knees
Bounce around in a circle, get down with me
Oh come on, come on
It's not hard to learn
Come on, come on
It's called the U-Turn

Put your hands up, bend your knees
Bounce around in a circle, get down with me
Oh come on, come on
It's not hard to learn
Come on, come on
It's called the U-Turn

All you need to do is let go
Let the tempo take over you
I came to have a good time
Let the rhythm deep iside your soul
Let it lead you to the floor, whoa

Put your hands up, bend your knees
Bounce around in a circle, get down with me
Oh come on, come on
It's not hard to learn
Come on, come on
It's called the U-Turn

Oh, oh, oh, T-T-P
Oh, oh, oh, T-T-P

Somebody tell me
Why do people stay in situations that'll never work
Thinkin' bout you wanna leave and 
You can't wait to get even
When deep inside it really hurts
I never should have gotten in the mix
You never understand till you go through it
All the rights things you say
Wrong things to do
While you're out tryna pick and choose

You should be lookin' for a TTP
Now that I know the difference
That's all I'm tryna be with
Somebody that keeps it all in together now
I'm living better
Since I found my total package

You should be lookin' for a TTP
Now that I know the difference
That's all I'm tryna be with
Somebody that keeps it all in together now
I'm living better
Since I found my total package

I used to be young and dumb
And always wanted to run in the streets
Cause I thought that was where it was at
But it wasn't all it did was leave a brother in the cold
With nowhere to go
I caught myself slippin'
Thinkin' I was the lick, I was trippin'
Tried to jump dip to dip
I thought it was a way to be happy
Until somebody took time to tell me

You should be lookin' for a TTP
Now that I know the difference
That's all I'm tryna be with
Somebody that keeps it all in together now
I'm living better
Since I found my total package

You should be lookin' for a TTP
Now that I know the difference
That's all I'm tryna be with
Somebody that keeps it all in together now
I'm living better
Since I found my total package

So many people think
They got it - but they don't have a clue
You gotta have more than just a body
For me to be talkin' about you oh
Take it from me when playin' the game you're day will come
When you gotta stop and start lookin' for the world

(Breakdown)

You should be lookin' for a TTP
Now that I know the difference
That's all I'm tryna be with
Somebody that keeps it all in together now
I'm living better
Since I found my total package

Oh no, no, no, no

If love was a bird
Then we wouldn't have wings
If love was a sky
We'd be blue
If love was a choir
You and I could never sing
Cause love isn't for me and you

If love was an Oscar
You and I could never win
Cause we can never act out our parts
If love is the Bible
Then we are lost in sin
Because its not in our hearts

So why don't you go your way
And I'll go mine
Live your life, and I'll live mine
Baby you'll do well, and I'll be fine
Cause we're better off, separated

If love was a fire
Then we have lost the spark
Love never felt so cold
If love was a light
Then we're lost in the dark
Left with no one to hold

If love was a sport
We're not on the same team
You and I are destined to lose
If love was an ocean
Then we are just a stream
Cause love isn't for me and you

So why don't you go your way
And I'll go mine
Live your life, and I'll live mine
Baby you'll do well, and I'll be fine
Cause we're better off, separated

Girl I know we had some good times
It's sad but now we gotta say goodbye
Girl you know I love you, I can't deny
I can't say we didn't try to make it work for you and I
I know it hurts so much but it's best for us
Somewhere along this windy road we lost the trust
So I'll walk away so you don't have to see me cry
It's killing me so, why don't you go

So why don't you go your way
And I'll go mine
Live your life, and I'll live mine
Baby you'll do well, and I'll be fine
Cause we're better off, separated
