Damian Dame Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mmm...

Baby, if I drive you crazy
Ain't nothing personal about it
Girl, I'm just that way

See, baby, sometimes I'm shaky
But don't confuse it
Don't you lose it
Cause it be that way

Oh, here lately
I've been thinking
Just a thinking
Thinking what you think
Of your guy

Somebody's telling you
I don't care about you
Ain't a single word about it true

Cause when it gets right down to it
I'm in love with you
And baby, you should
You should know it by now

When it gets right down to it
I wanna get with you
And, girl, I need
Your loving right now

Frankly I'm not that crazy
I know a good thing when I got it
And I do give a damn

Lady, don't let em play me
Let it go through one ear
Out the other, baby
Stand by your man

Oh, baby
Don't you be influenced
By your girlfriends
Jocking me on the side

Well, they just know it's good
They want a piece of it
Snatch me at the bat of an eye
When it gets right down

When it gets right down to it
I'm in love with you
Baby, you should know it by now, whoa

When it gets right down
(When it gets right down to it)
I wanna get with you, baby
Girl, I need your loving right now
(Right now, right now, baby)

When it gets right down to it
I'm in love with you
Baby, you should know it by now

When it gets right down to it
I wanna get with you
Girl, I need your loving right now

When you love what you touch
And you touch what you want
Then you want what you kiss
And you kiss what you miss

When you diss what you want
And you want what you diss
Then you miss what you love
And you love what you diss, baby

Ooh, baby, yeah
I wanna get with you, baby, oh
And you should know by now
And you should know by now, baby

Cause when it gets right down
(When it gets right) to it
(When it gets right)
I'm in love with you
When it gets right down, baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Baby, you should know it by now (baby)

When it gets right down to it
(When it gets right
When it gets right
When it gets right)
I wanna get with you
(When it gets right down to it
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Girl, I need your loving right now

When it gets right down
I'm in love with you
You should know by now
When it gets right down
I'm in love with you, yeah

When it gets right down
I'm in love with you
You should know by now
When it gets right down
I wanna get with you, yeah

When it gets right down to it
I'm in love with you

Baby, you should know it by now
You should know it by now, yeah)

I have a nostalgic heart . I'll find myself on YouTube just looking up commercials, tv shows, cartoons, music from the 80s that shaped my childhood . Can honestly say I love Damian Dame . I'm 39 but at a young age , video soul gave me the videos but listening to my dad's stereo with the oversized headphones as a little boy , had me hypnotized by music. Artists like this are why my heart will always keep pure music alive as the memory of great artists remains an unforgettable treasure .

Lol Did You Really?

Video soul is one show that should have lasted an eternity
