Just a Friend
Mario feat. Biz Markie Lyrics

Have you ever met a girl that you tried to date
Have you ever approached a girl with romantic intentions?

But a year to make love, she wanted you to wait?
But she wasn't ready for a physical relationship for a whole year?

Let me tell ya a story of my situation
Let me tell you a story of what happened to me

I was talkin' to this girl from the U.S. nation
I was talking to a girl from the United States

The way that I met her was on tour, at a concert
I met her while on tour, during a concert

She had long hair and a short miniskirt
She had long hair and was wearing a short miniskirt

I just got on stage, drippin', pourin' with sweat
I had just finished performing on stage and was sweating profusely

I was walkin' through the crowd and guess who I met
As I was walking through the crowd, I met someone

I whispered in her ear, 'Come to the picture booth
I quietly asked her to come to the picture booth with me

So I can ask you some questions to see if ya hundred proof'
So I could ask her some questions to see if she was genuine and sincere

I asked her her name, she said, 'Blah, blah, blah'
I asked her name and she gave me a meaningless response

She had 9/10 pants and a very big bra
She was wearing tight-fitting pants and a large bra

I took a couple of flicks and she was enthused
I took a couple of pictures of her and she seemed excited

I said, 'How do you like the show?' She said, 'I was very amused'
I asked her how she liked the concert and she said she was entertained

I started throwin' bass, she started throwin' back mid range
I started flirting aggressively and she started responding moderately

But when I sprung the question, she acted kind of strange
But when I asked her to be in a relationship, she acted strange

Then when I asked, 'Do you have a man?', she tried to pretend
When I asked if she was in a relationship, she tried to lie

She said, 'No, I don't, I only have a friend'
She said she didn't have a boyfriend, only a male friend

So I took blah blah's word for it at this time
At that time, I believed her unimportant response

I thought just havin' a friend couldn't be no crime
I thought it wasn't a big deal for her to have a male friend

'Cause I have friends and that's a fact
Because I have platonic friends myself

Like Agnes, Agatha, Germaine, and Jack
Like my own friends named Agnes, Agatha, Germaine, and Jack

Forget about that, let's go into the story
But forget that, let me continue with the story

About a girl named 'blah, blah, blah' that adored me
About the girl who gave me a meaningless response but seemed interested in me

So we started talkin', gettin' familiar
So we began communicating and getting to know each other

Spendin' a lot of time, so we can build a
Spending a lot of time together to develop

Relationship or some understanding
Either a romantic relationship or some understanding between us

How it's gonna be in the future we was plannin'
We were making plans for our future together

Everything sounded so dandy and sweet
Everything sounded great and perfect

I had no idea I was in for a treat
I had no idea what was coming

After this was established, everything was cool
Once our plans were made, everything seemed good between us

The tour was over and she went back to school
The concert tour was over and she returned to college

I called every day to see how she was doin'
I called her every day to check up on her

Every time that I called her, it seemed somethin' was brewin'
Every time I called her, something seemed to be going on

I called her room, a guy picked up, and then I called again
One time I called her room, and a guy answered, so I called again later

I say, 'Yo, who was that?' 'Oh, he's just a friend'
I asked who answered the phone, and she made an excuse that he was just a friend

Don't gimme that, don't even gimme that
Stop lying to me, don't even try to lie to me

So, I came to her college on a surprise visit
Then I decided to surprise her by visiting her at college

To see my girl, that was so exquisite
To see my beautiful girlfriend

It was a school day, I knew she was there
It was a day for classes, so I knew she was on campus

The first semester of the school year
The beginning of the academic term

I went to a gate to ask where was her dorm
I went to a gate to ask where her dormitory was located

This guy made me fill out a visitor's form
An official made me fill out a form for visitors

He told me where it was and I was on my way
He gave me directions and I headed to her dorm

To see my baby doll, I was happy to say
To see my girlfriend, whom I affectionately called my baby doll

I arrived in front of the dormitory
I arrived at the entrance of the dormitory

'Yo, could you tell me where is door three?'
I asked someone to direct me to her room, which was number three

They showed me where it was for the moment
They directed me to her room temporarily

I didn't know I was in for such an event
I had no idea what was about to happen

So, I came to her room and opened the door
I went to her room and opened the door

Oh, snap, guess what I saw?
Oh my, guess what I saw?

A fella tongue kissin' my girl in her mouth
A guy was kissing my girlfriend on the mouth with his tongue

I was so in shock, my heart went down south
I was so shocked that I felt terrible

So please, listen to the message that I send
So please, listen to what I have to say

Don't ever talk to a girl who says she just has a friend
Don't ever talk to a girl who claims that a male friend is just a friend
