Sing it y’all

Oh, killing me softly and I’m still falling

Still the one I need, I will always be with you

Oh, you got me all gone, don’t ever let me go

Say it real loud if you fly

Sing it y’all

(My baby is a ten)

We dressing to the (Nine)

(He pick me up, we eight)

(Make me feel so lucky, seven)

(He kiss me in his six)

(We be making love in five) I see you

(Still the one I do this four)

(I’m trying to make us three)

(From that two)

(He still the one)

There’s ups and downs in this love

Got a lot to learn in this love

Through the good and the bad, still got love

Dedicated to the one I love, hey

Still love the way he talk, still love the way I sing

Still love the way he rock them black diamonds in that chain

Still all up on each other, ain’t a damn thing change

My girls can’t tell me nothing, I’m gone in the brain

Me and my boo in my boo’s coupe riding

All up in that black with his chick right beside him

Ladies, if you love your man, show him you the fliest

Grind up on it, girl, girl, girl (Show him how you ride it)

Me and my boo in the coupe lip locking

All up in the back ’cause the chicks keep flocking

All that gossip in 10 years, stop it

London, speed it up, Houston, rock it
