Top down, AC with the cooler system
When he come up in the club, he be blazin' up
Got stacks on deck like he savin' up
And he ill, he real, he might gotta deal
He pop bottles and he got the right kind of build
He cold, he dope, he might sell coke
He always in the air, but he never fly coach
He a motherfuckin' trip, trip, sailor of the ship, ship
When he make it drip, drip kiss him on the lip, lip
That's the kind of dude I was lookin' for
And, yes, you'll get slapped if you're lookin' ho

I mean my, my, my, my you're like pelican fly

Just letting the O.P. know
i mean, if niki was to see the post wouldn't it be better that it was properly worded, given the intention of the post and nature of it
that's all i was saying
i do understand that I and O are next to each other on a keyboard, fair enough.
i was just pointing it out, ok
no need to take offense to anything, (in case you did) or in case anyone wants to
that's now what i was going for.
