Sugar Jones Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Keep on walkin'
Keep on walkin'

See
See me walking down the street
Tryin' to make me look at you
You ain't got nothin' better to do 'cause
I'd
Rather hang with my ladies
Than to have to deal with you
I told you that I ain't got the time for you

So why
Why you wanna talk to me
I know you wanna see me plead
All I gotta say is keep on walkin'
Prove, what the hell I gotta prove
I'm a girl who seeks the truth
All I gotta say is keep on walkin'

Tonight
You see me at the club again
You know I'm not lookin' to find
I just came to have a good time 'cause
I
Just 'cause I'm not like you
You gotta act like a fool
Nothin' I can say to you, oh you

(Don't even)
Try to get down with me
(Uh-uh)
Try to be my baby
(No way)
Try to get next to me, oh me
(Don't go there)
Try to start s**t with me
(Don't try)
Try to get fresh with me
(Uh-uh)
Try to ruin my party, hey yeah

Why you wanna talk to me
I know you wanna see me plead
All I gotta say is keep on walkin'
Prove, what the hell I gotta prove
I'm a girl who seeks the truth
All I gotta say is keep on walkin'

Why you wanna talk to me
I know you wanna see me plead
All I gotta say is keep on walkin'
Prove, what the hell I gotta prove
I'm a girl who seeks the truth
All I gotta say is keep on walkin'

I know you wanna see
That secret side of me
But that will never be, oh oh never be
Inside I'm finally free
Don't need to prove a thing
You wanna step, just keep walkin'

Why you wanna talk to me
I know you wanna see me plead
All I gotta say is keep on walkin'
Prove, what the hell I gotta prove
I'm a girl who seeks the truth
All I gotta say is keep on walkin'

Why you wanna talk to me
I know you wanna see me plead
All I gotta say is keep on walkin'
Prove, what the hell I gotta prove
I'm a girl who seeks the truth
All I gotta say is keep on walkin'

Why you wanna talk to me
I know you wanna see me plead
All I gotta say is keep on walkin'
Prove, what the hell I gotta prove




I'm a girl who seeks the truth
All I gotta say is keep on walkin'
