(Ooh...ooh...ooh...)
Ooh...ooh...
(Ooh...ooh...ooh...)
Listen, baby


I don’t see no rings on these fingers
So I’m not gonna deal with your drama
Long as you’re with me, you got to show respect
Get out and get a job and bring home a check


See, I will love you till the day I die
But never love you enough that I’mma live a lie
So three snaps up, three snaps down
Wanna be treated like a king you better wear the crown


Wanna play the boss (Guess what)
You got to pay the cost (Sho’ ‘nuff)
You wanna wear the pants (Guess what)
You got to be a man (Sho’ ‘nuff)


Hangin’ out with your friends (Guess what)
Don’t ask what time you come in (Sho’ ‘nuff)
Don’t wanna pay the bills (Guess what)
I know somebody who will (Sho’ ‘nuff), listen


Now we’ve been shackin’ up since ’93
I ain’t gettin’ no younger, I need some guarantee
The best years of my life is what I’ve given you
Argue, fuss and fight, seems that’s all you do


And us goin’ to church always in your plans
But come Sunday mornin’ you play sick in bed
See, I will love you till the day I die
But never love you enough to live a lie
So three snaps up, three snaps down
If you wanna be treated like a king you better wear
the crown


Wanna play the boss (Guess what)
You got to pay the cost, baby (Sho’ ‘nuff)
You wanna wear the pants (Guess what)
You got to be a man (Sho’ ‘nuff)


Hangin’ out with your friends (Guess what)
Never watch what time you come in (Sho’ ‘nuff)
Don’t wanna pay the bills (Guess what)
I know somebody who will (Sho’ ‘nuff)


(Think we’ve got some issues at hand)
We need to address ‘em, baby, yeah
(I need you to understand)
That I’ve got needs too
(Over and over again)
Yeah, I put up with your childish games
(I just can’t be raisin’ no man)
Yeah, wanna be treated like a king then wear the crown


Wanna play the boss (Guess what)
You got to pay the cost (Sho’ ‘nuff)
You wanna wear the pants, yeah (Guess what)
You got to be a man (Sho’ ‘nuff)


Hangin’ out with your friends (Guess what)
Watch what time you come in (Sho’ ‘nuff)
Don’t wanna pay the bills (Guess what)
I know somebody who will (Sho’ ‘nuff), listen


You hurt me for the last time (Guess what)
It’s time to tell you what’s on my mind (Sho’ ‘nuff)
Always rippin’ runnin’ these streets (Guess what)
Well, I found someone that’s gonna take care of me
(Sho’ ‘nuff)


Nothin’ but lies comin’ out your mouth (Guess what)
Might as well go on back to your mama’s house (Sho’
‘nuff)
‘Cause you’ve been messin’ around, yeah (Guess what)
And now it’s time to put you down (Sho’ ‘nuff)


Really ain’t comin’ to your door (Guess what)
I’m not gonna take your s*** no more (Sho’ ‘nuff)
Ladies, ladies, ladies (Guess what)
Tell me can you feel me (Sho’ ‘nuff)


Ladies, ladies, ladies (Guess what)
Tell me can you feel me (Sho’ ‘nuff)
Ladies, ladies, ladies (Guess what)
Tell me can you feel me (Sho’ ‘nuff)


Ladies, ladies, ladies (Guess what)
Tell me can you feel me (Sho’ ‘nuff)
