Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah, that's right babe
That's right babe
That's right babe, yeah
That's right babe
That's right babe
That's right babe

You be acting like you on one
You be acting like you don't want it
How you gon' lie to me?
Don't I stay a hundred if it's some over?
It's something like you on top of me right now
Breathing on me and I'm breathing on you
It's like making love, but it's more like making magic
We be stopping traffic

We be going this hard
Oh, but you already knew that
But you already knew that
You, you already knew that, girl
But you already knew that
But you already knew that
Yeah, you probably knew that girl

That's about that
I ain't sayin' no more
'Bout to be a ballad
I wasn't playin' no more
I ain't playing no more game no more
No, no
But you already knew that
You know how to fuck around
You already knew that
Baby, go ahead and pull the panties down
Lemme do that
That's mine, lemme do that
Opportunist when I do that
I know you like it when I do that
You my only one, babe
You make me feel some type of way
I need your body all day
I'm like a young Marvin in this day

(Oh baby, I can't fight this feeling)
(No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no)
But you already knew that
Oh, you already knew that
But you already knew that
You, you already knew that girl
You already knew that
But you already knew that
Yeah, you probably knew that girl, yeah

Now let me in that thing, speak back
'Cause I need a little feedback
I won't leave, won't leave you
But if I do, I'ma be back
I won't leave, never leave you
But if I do, I'ma speed back
I'm in the V with the seat back
Fuck the police 'cause I need that
Real right, real right
I'ma feen and I mean that

But you already knew that
But you already knew that
You already knew that, girl
You already knew that
But you already knew that
Yeah, you probably already knew that
But you already knew that




Oh, you already knew that
Yeah, you already knew that girl
