Baby you on my mind
Long as we spending time, girl 'cause
(I gotta be next to you)
Baby you on my mind
Long as we spending time, girl 'cause
(I gotta be next to you)

I ain't trippin' about the lime light
'Cause when I'm with my shawty she keep my mind right
When we up in the mall she fill up shoppin' bag
She love to pop them tags, she love to drive the Jag

Whenever we alone she throw away my phone
'Cause she don't want no interruptions while we goin' strong
My baby, my baby don't be on that bullshit
My baby, my baby know I keep a full clip

That's why I met her outside at 7:45
That's why I take pride when I slide up in them thighs
My baby boo she true you know she hold me down
So when I get some time I spend it with her now, yea

I'm waiting, anticipating for you baby
('Cause I gotta be next to you)
And I'm wanting you 'cause you got me
Boy, you got me
('Cause I gotta be next to you)

Baby you on my mind
Long as we spending time, girl 'cause
(I gotta be next to you)
Baby you on my mind
Long as we spending time, girl 'cause
(I gotta be next to you)

My lil' mama she know how the game go
She know if it's 'bout the money, she know daddy gotta go
She know if it's 'bout the paper, them paper I'm gon' get
Bring it back to the crib, them paper we gon' split it

She understand what I do, she trust me and keep it true
Even though I leave her lonely she knows that I love her too
While I'm hot I gotta get it, gotta stay on the grind
And she already know when I'm home, she take all my time

I love to cuddle up, love to make her blush
Girl I can't get enough 'cause I gotta be next to you
I love to cuddle up, love to make her blush
Girl I can't get enough 'cause I gotta be next to you

I'm waiting, anticipating for you baby
('Cause I gotta be next to you)
And I'm wanting you 'cause you got me
Boy you got me

I know that he gon' always be around
So I'll let him hit his ex outta town, yeah

And I know that lil' mama gon' hold big daddy down
I know that she gon' make me smile when I frown
I know that shawty's more than a friend
That's why I ride wit her 'til the end, yeah
