Sammie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Making sure you're tight
Perpetrating making you think
Everything's all right
Call you on my cell phone
Baby, even on my time
The crazy things I do for love
Bouncin' baby acting like
Only if you promise girl that
You will try no game
Kiss me girl and I'll spend
Every dollar to my name
The crazy things I do for love
Movies, hanging out
