We be in the club, niggas give him dap
I love it when a nigga got it like that
He be in the club, nigga, say what's up
They respect that nigga, gon' 'head, fill this double cup
We be in the club, niggas give him dap
I love it when a nigga got it like that
We be in the club, nigga, say what's up
They respect that nigga, gon' 'head, fill this double cup

He said, "Bae, go and get ready"
It's early, but time, I need plannin'
Hop in the shower, I always smell good
My scent is like blossom in Paris
I need a towel, I'm drippin'
Pour me some Henny, I'm sippin'
Might take a puff 'fore I'm bakin' my face
To make sure my makeup not shiftin'
Delicate soap on my body
Look at my rings, they are rocky
I shit with my niggas, we shit on these bitches
He love that I'm bougie and cocky
Respect me like Tony Montana
I am a baby Madonna
You fuckin' with him, you fuckin' with me
Defendin' my baby's an honor

We be in the club, niggas give him dap
I love it when a nigga got it like that
He be in the club, nigga, say what's up
They respect that nigga, gon' 'head, fill this double cup
We be in the club, niggas give him dap
I love it when a nigga got it like that
We be in the club, nigga, say what's up
They respect that nigga, gon' 'head, fill this double cup

We pull up to the party, all these bitches starin' at him
But my nigga made it clear that he off limits, you can't have him
He the realest man I know, so I never gotta trip
What he need I always got, I'm makin' sure he never slip
He the savage of them all, he the one his partners call
Make shit right when they do wrong
Man I call that boy King Kong
He a beast out in the jungle, yeah we make the perfect couple
Makin' sure he never fumble, take a shot, shit make it double

We be in the club, niggas give him dap
I love it when a nigga got it like that
He be in the club, nigga, say what's up
They respect that nigga, gon' 'head, fill this double cup
We be in the club, niggas give him dap
I love it when a nigga got it like that




We be in the club, nigga, say what's up
They respect that nigga, gon' 'head, fill this double cup
