Lady
Mista Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lady, would you mind if I politely kiss your hand?
I've been watchin' you all night and I can't stand
To see you all alone like this
You're giving me an opportunity I can't resist

I saw you standing from across the room
And I like to get to know you without being rude
So just take my hand and let's move on the floor
And if the chemistry is right then we will do so much more

But for now lady, would you mind if I politely kiss your hand?
I've been watchin' you all night and I can't stand
To see you all alone like this
You're giving me an opportunity I can't resist

I know my conversation is not boring you
'Cause when I look into your eyes, I see you want it, too
Don't make no misconception about my attitude
But when I feel the time is right, I'll get you in the mood

But for now, oh yeah, oh yeah
Lady, would you mind if I politely kiss your hand?
I've been watchin' you all night and I can't stand
To see you all alone like this
You're giving me an opportunity I can't resist

Lady, lady, lady, lady
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Lady, kiss your hand
I've been watchin' you all night and I can't stand
To see you all alone like this
You're giving me an opportunity I can't resist

Lady, kiss your hand
I've been watchin' you all night and I can't stand
To see you all alone like this
You're giving me an opportunity I can't resist

Lady, kiss your hand
I've been watchin' you all night and I can't stand




To see you all alone like this
You're giving me an opportunity I can't resist

This is my song. I fell in love with it when it came out. I like the guy singing the second verse. His voice is so distinctive.

Rules for this song. You must play it in the car. You must turn it up. You must have the bass on the highest it can go. You must roll down the windows. Now, go bust loopz in the hood. Done. My favorite freakin song of all times.
