I'm hanging out with the fellas
Is that all right? Lets go

You want to hang with the boys tonight
I'm waiting right here for you
want to know how I feel here's the answer
What's good for the goose is good for the gander

Mean what you say
Mean what you do
Cause it could all come back to you
I know your games
I've played them too
But how it ends is up to you

want to come stay the night tonight
What ya gonna do? What ya gonna do?
Don't go looking now to start a fight
It all comes back to you

You want to hang with the boys tonight
While I'm waiting right here for you
If you want to know how I feel here's the answer
What's good for the goose is good for the gander

Hang with the boys tonight
Waiting right here for you
want to know how I feel here's the answer
What's good for the goose is good for the gander

So do everything you want to do
No, I can do it too
Yeah
And be careful how you size it up
Cause the shoe can fit me too

You care what you say and not what you do
What ya gonna do? What ya gonna do?
Expect everything you say to be true

And that can't do, that can't do
Hanging all night while I wait for you
What ya gonna do?
Your day is coming so what ya gonna do?
You know its gonna come back to you

You know I mean what I say, mama
Its you gotta speak your mind
I'm out in the streets when I'm on the grind
Don't get this thing twisted, I'm all for you
I had more than a ball with you
I only fall for you, and that's why we down for life
I want to make this all right tonight
But you gotta help me 'cause we gotta work this out
Take our problems and turn them out
And gonna be no doubt?

Hang with the boys
Waiting right here for you
What's good for the goose is good for the gander
Hang with the boys
Waiting right here for you
want to know how I feel here's the answer




What's good for the goose is good for the gander
(Repeat)
