VERSE 1:
|
My home since knee high
|
We came up on the south side
|
Where you had to beat the street lights home
|
We got into some street fights
|
But the next day we be right back get it all
|
Wherever there was me, there was you
|
And we were like crew
|
Straight from junior high school
|
Then you messed it all up
|
Started pushing up
|
Kissed me on the cheek
|
And I fell in love
|
|
Shorty's a little taller now
|
Into big things, he's a baller now
|
His heart never changed
|
I can see he's still down
|
I can't forget him (No no no no)
|
More than his voice is changing now
|
All that I see is rearranging now (Now)
|
It just ain't the same
|
Catchin feelings now
|
I should tell him (Yea)
|
|
CHORUS:
|
You knew you were the boy next door (Next door)
|
Don't want to be my homeboy no more
|
Saw something that I never saw before
|
I think he wants to be my baby, baby
|
Been thinkin bout him all my life (My life)
|
Now I see him in a whole new light
|
Something about it feels so right (That's why)
|
I think he wants to be my baby, baby
|
|
VERSE 2:
|
Every night when we get home
|
Undercover talking on the phone
|
Here comes my mother
|
It's way too late
|
Might get in trouble
|
My heart can't wait (So much to take)
|
Writing till my hand cramps up
|
4 pages saying I'm in love (I got a crush)
|
Can't get you off my mind (Can you pick me up baby)
|
I'm sure I'll be fine when I look into your eyes
|
|
Shorty's a little taller now
|
Into big things, he's a baller now
|
His heart never changed
|
I can see he's still down
|
I can't forget him
|
More than his voice is changing now
|
All that I see is rearranging now
|
It just ain't the same
|
Catchin feelings now
|
I should tell him (Gotta tell him that I love him)
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
BRIDGE:
|
Chocolate covered candy kisses
|
They keep me reminiscing
|
All I want is what your giving
|
Nothing like your affection
|
So in love and you're the reason
|
There's no more lonely season
|
Make me love you, drive me crazy
|
Think I wanna be your lady
|
(Repeat)
|
|
Oh-we-oh
|
Oh oh oh (Don't wanna be my homeboy no more)
|
Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh
|
Oh oh oh
|
Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh
|
Oh oh oh
|
Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh (Why why why why why)
|
Now homeboy wants to be my baby, be my baby, be my baby
|
Oh-we-oh
|
Oh oh oh (He don't wanna be my homeboy no more)
|
Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh
|
Oh oh oh
|
Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh (No more)
|
Oh oh oh
|
Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh (Said he)
|
Now homeboy wants to be my baby, be my baby, be my baby
|
(Wants to be my baby now, now, now now now)
|
