Only thing that keeps me up when I'm feelin' down
I don't know about you, but I gotta keep mines around 'cause

Search around the world, but you will never find another shorty like mine

I knew when I ran into this one, she would be the redrum of my pimpin'
Knew she would be the one to make me stop caring
About other girls on my jock, and gettin' them
