I Like
Montell Jordan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Do ya like it, like it, like it, like it girl????

Great I'm in trouble I suppose because I does hit girlfriend
Ya love me in my drop top Rolls
Traffic came to a halt
I'm like "I beg your pardon madam it was truly my fault"
And instead of me yelling and add to no above
Hon all in my drop dead gorgeous love

Pretty? Body definitely ?curnin, and thirdly
the way she dyed her hair bronze fitted her superbly
Baby, let me say what's on my mind
Take a little time to express myself, honey, I think you're fly
Now I don't have no problem saying what I like
I'd like to spend some time with you starting with tonight a-na-la

[Chorus]

I like the way you walk
The sexy way you talk
Ooh I can't help myself
Baby, I like
I like to kiss your lips
and when you move your hips
Ooh I can't help myself
Baby, I like

Here's the situation, I lay it on the line
Meaningless relationships they're wasting all my time
You are the special someone that I want to get to know
Baby can't you see it in my eyes I want to take you home

Tonight let's take our time
Do it nice, do it slow
Baby, we got nowhere to go
Oh I hope you don't mind
Oh, I'm comin on real strong
I give good lovin all night long
Oh, I like it

[Chorus: x 2]

Get hot and tell me, get hot, Oh
Get hot and tell me, get hot, mmm mmm yeah
Get hot and tell me, get hot, ooh
Get hot and tell me, get hot, baby yeah!
Get hot and tell me, get hot, mmm mmm
Get hot and tell me, get hot, Sure I like it
Get hot and tell me, get hot, oh yeah
Get hot and tell me, get hot

[Chorus: x 2]

Baby, I like the way that you walk, you get hot baby
And baby I like the way that you talk, baby
And baby I'd like to kiss on your lips
And baby I like you
Baby, I like





[Chorus]
