Uh Uh Uh,

And when I think about you
That's the first thing that come to my mind.
I'm like

Baby you can get it all,
You can get it all
You can get it
And when I think about you
That's the first thing that come to my mind.
I'm like
Shawtie you can get it all
You can get it all
You can get it

I know you heard my reputation
You don't think I would ever do right by you
You think that if you and I was in a relationship
I would never be true (be true)
You think that anything I say is straight game
And to me your just another new name
But what I'm tryin' to tell you for every man
There's a woman that'll make him change
And I believe you the one that'll make me
But any time I try to show you you shake me
I know I make it real hard for you to take me serious
But baby girl I am (I am)
And I ain't stopping right here, I'ma keep going
And I'm gonna make sure everyday tat you keep knowing
Weather if I have to send you flowers
Or talk to you on the celle-phone for few hours
I'm yelling like


And when I think about you
That the first thing that come to my mind.
I'm like

Baby you can get it all,

You can get it
And when I think about you
That's the first thing that come to my mind.

Shawtie you can get it all
You can get it all

(One, one, one, one)
One minute you act like you like me
And then the next you don't
You still sending me crazy emails
Like I know it's just sex you want
I can't lie the sex is truly incredible
And every part of your body is so edible
I get tears from just thinking bout it
But that ain't the reason why I'm stuck and can't let you go
We got a serious serious bond
And when we kick it we have nothin but fun
I feel a whole lot of L-O-V-E between you and me
Even though we still young
Just your company ain't gota get none
Talk the same lingo, understand where I'm coming from
And if anybody ask me a question about you
I'ma tell em you the one
You got me like


And when I think about you
That the first thing that come to my mind.
I'm like

Baby you can get it all,
You can get it all

And when I think about you
That's the first thing that come to my mind.

Baby that sexual ineffectual
But still I choose you to be
With me and were gonna
So you better not break it up
You got me like

And when I think about you
