Usher Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Whoa, man (y'all are somethin' else)
Yeah
A lotta women
You know they say y'all do it better than us
(And I learned from the best man)
Because we only see what you're doin'
But I see ya
Where we at?
This right here is for my triple G's with the double D-D's
Go get 'em girls (ha ha, yeah man)
You know who you are
Where we at?
Over here lookin' how we lookin'
Ain't that right? (Huh, yeah)
Go get 'em girls (I see you)
I profess I'm a lover minor scholar of anatomy
Doctor feminine chemistry
Got a healthy fascination for a multitude of relation
With plenty women that's still on the fee?
And it happens that every once in a while
I go too deep then I gotta shut it down
She keep on comin' by, won't quit callin'
It's safe to say that she's fallin'
She pleadin', she don't want me to leave
I had to tell her
No, no, no
She keep on begging for more (no)
No, no, no
She said you don't love me no more
That's when I be like
Lovin' me baby that's a no-no (no-no)
I'm better when I touch and go
I'm tryna add yo name to my hall of fame
Not just a player, I'm a pro lover (lover, yeah)
Lover (not a lover, baby, yeah)
Yeah, man
As a quick pro call we can both come and go
This ain't about fidelity (uh-uh)
Thought I was a pimp, player, hustler, baller (huh)
Whoa man, she a G (yeah) and do it better than me
(Do it better than us, man)
When it happens that every once in awhile
She gon' cook just to hook you for a while
Can't escape, take your pick, either way you're a trip 'cause
Man, if she layin' for it, that means you payin' for it
No, no, no
She keep on begging for more, yeah
No, no, no
She said you don't love me no more
That's when I be like
Lovin' me baby that's a no-no (no-no)
I'm better when I touch and go (go)
I'm tryna add yo name to my hall of fame
Not just a player, I'm a pro lover (lover)
Lover (ooh yeah, love you baby, ooh yeah)
Tick-tock, better hurry, times runnin' out
So you better be sure before we lay down
Knock-knock, Daddy's home, open up, girl
I can tell that it's been awhile, you've been waiting
Come through it so many times (with women that I do it for)
Ain't tryna make you mine (but I like the feeling)
Let's both be honest here baby, we don't go through drama here, baby
'Cause when you give it up
You gon' get addicted and go crazy and lose your mind
I know, but baby, I like it (keep on asking me for more)
(More, more, more, more)
Lovin' me baby that's a no-no (no-no)
I'm better when I touch and go
I'm tryna add yo name to my hall of fame
Not just a player, I'm a pro lover (ooh-ooh), lover
Not just a player, I'm a pro lover (lover)
Not just a player, I'm a pro lover (lover)
Better ask somebody
(Players, real G's feel me on this one)
Ain't that right girl, yeah
