Doo wop (That
thing) (1998)
D - Em - D - Em (2x) + D - Em - D - Em

1. It's been three weeks since you were looking
for your friend,
Em
the
one you let hit it and never called you again.
D
Remember when he told you he
was about the benjamins ?
Em
You act like you ain't hear him, and gave him a
little trim.
D
To begin, how you think you're
really going to pretend
Em
like
you wasn't down and you called him again ?
D
Em
Plus, when you give it up so
easy, you ain't even foolin'
him,
if
you did it then, then you'd probably fuck again.
D
Talking out your neck, saying you're
a Christian,
Em
a
Muslim, sleeping with the Gin,
D
now
that was the sin that did Jezebel in.
Em
Who're you going to tell when
the repercussions spin,
D
showing
off your ass 'cause your thinking it's a trend ?
Em
Girlfriend, let me break it
down for you again !
D
You know I only say it 'cause
I'm truly genuine.
Em
Don't be a hard rock, when you
really are a gem.
D
Baby girl !
Respect is just a minimum.
Em
Nigga's
fucked up and you still defending him.
D
Now - Lauryn
is only human.
Em
Don't think I haven't been
through the same predicament.
D
Let it sit inside your head
like a million women in Philly Penn.
Em
It's silly when girls sell
their souls because of sin.
D
Look at what you be in, hair weaves like
Em
Europeans, fake
nails done by Koreans.
D
Come again !
Em
Yo! A-When when come again!
(Yeah-Yeah!)
D
When when come again!! (Yeah-Yeah!)
Em
My friend come
again!!! (Yeah-Yeah!)
D - Em
Guys you know you'd better watch out,
D Em
some girls, some girls are only
about
D Em
that thing, that thing, that thing
!
D Em
That thing, that thing, that thing !
D
2. The second verse is
dedicated to the men
Em
more
concerned with his rims and his Tim's than his women.
D
Him and his men, come in the
club like hooligans,
Em
don't
care who they offend, popping yin (Like you got yang !).
D
Let's stop pretend, the ones
that pack pistols by the waist me,
Em
cristall by the case men, still living in his
Mother's basement.
D
The pretty face men claiming
that they be the "big men"
Em
need
to take care of their three and four kids.
D
But they face a court case
when the child support's late,
Em
money
taking and heart breaking.
Now you wonder why women hate
men,
D
the
sneaky silent men, the punk domestic violence men.
Em
Quick to shoot the semen, stop
acting like boys and be men !
D
How you gonna
win, when you ain't right within ?
!
Em
How you gonna
win, when you ain't right within ?
!
D
How you gonna
win, when you ain't right within ?
!
Em
Unh-Unhh,
come again ! Yo-Yo, come again !
D Em D Em
Bredrin,
come again ! Sit straight, come again
!
D Em
Watch out, watch out ! Look out, look out !
D Em
Watch out, watch out ! Look out, look out !
D Em
Watch out, watch out ! Look out, look out !
D Em
Watch out, watch out ! Look out, look out !
D - Em
Girls you know you'd better
watch out,
D Em
some guys, some girls are only
about
D Em
that thing, that thing, that thing
!
D Em
That thing, that thing, that thing !
D - Em
Guys you know you'd better
watch out,
D Em
some girls, some girls are only
about
D Em
that thing, that thing, that thing
!
D Em
That thing, that thing, that thing !
D - Em
Girls you know you'd better
watch out,
D Em
some guys, some girls are only
about
D Em
that thing, that thing, that
thing.
D Em
That thing, that thing, that thing ....
