Ghetto Baby
Cheryl Lyrics

You got a face like the Madonna
Your face is full of sorrow, just like the iconic image of Madonna crying.

Crying tears of gold
Your pain and sadness is so precious and valuable, it is like you are shedding tears of gold.

Been pumping gas at the Texaco road to road
You have been working hard at a menial job, going from place to place, pumping gas at every Texaco station you can find.

You're on the run
You are constantly fleeing, running away from something or someone.

Oh baby yeah you're on the run
You are aware of your status as a fugitive, and the danger that comes with it.

Oh baby
I care about you deeply and am sympathetic to your situation.

I'm not a trick boy, I'm a trick for you
I am not someone who plays games or deceives, but rather someone who is willing to do anything for you.

You give me butterflies, Heart skipping one two
Being near you is an experience that fills me with nervous excitement, my heart beating erratically like the pattern of one two.

I know you're sick boy, I wanna get the flu
I am aware that you are unwell or troubled, but I am willing to catch that same 'sickness' because being with you is worth it to me.

I'm running temperatures, Thinking of your love, boo.
I am consumed by thoughts of you, my affection for you making my body feel feverish like an actual illness.

Brooklyn move my soul like this
The borough of Brooklyn is so full of energy and character that it touches my soul in a special and unique way.

Kissing my stilettos move, Your mouth up to my lips
As you move your kisses down my body towards my stilettos, I guide your mouth upwards to mine.

Come on over ghetto baby (He said show me what you got girl)
Come to me, my 'ghetto baby', and show me what you can do, as we engage in a passionate flirtation.

Drop it like it's hot girl
Let yourself go, giving in to the heat of the moment and shedding any inhibitions you may have.

I know your lips say That you wanna but your heart's a no
You may say that you want me, but your heart tells a different story - that you are not ready for a committed relationship or to fully give yourself to me.

But boy your hips say that your gonna when you hold me, Hold me
Despite what you say, your body language and physical touch suggest that you do in fact want to be with me, and that you find comfort in holding me close.

You're so fun, Baby you are so much fun, Baby
You bring so much joy and excitement into my life, making every moment with you feel like an adventure.

My local rock star, The really big crew, I'm feeling you boy, You're liking me too
You are like a rock star to me, someone who stands out in our local community and draws attention wherever you go. I feel connected to you and it seems that you feel the same way about me.

I'm clocking chicks left and right Just to get to you, You're out there on the grind now come home to your Queen, boo.
I am working hard to be with you, sacrificing other opportunities and dedicating myself to earning your affection. You, in turn, are hustling in your own way, and I ask that you return to me, your 'Queen'.

We're a match mad in heaven
We are a perfect fit for each other, ideally suited to be together.

If they're gonna talk let 'em, If they don't think we're good together, Baby just forget 'em
If others have negative opinions about our relationship or gossip about us, it doesn't matter - we know how we feel about each other and that's all that counts.

When he's bad he's bad, But when he's good no one's better
You may have your faults, but when you are at your best, you are truly remarkable and no one can compare.

Cos we're a match made in heaven, And this kind of love's forever
Our relationship is truly special and meant to last, the type of love that is rare and enduring.
