(shake it, shake it)
(shake it, shake it)

Girl was the type you have dreams about on Sunday afternoon
The kinda girl you see stopping traffic down town on a sunny day in June
It wouldn't be right if I didn't pull up to tell her she looked good
'Hey ma you know that your looking kinda fine, maybe you and i should?'

Hook up
Go out
A few drinks
Get down
You know we could have a lot of fun tonight
Come out with me
Be straight
Don't play
It's alright
Just say
I ain't getting down with another mans girl
So baby please

[chorus]
If you got a man don't lead me on
If you got a man don't crowd my phone
If you got a man and say you don't
Find somebody else
Walk on
If you got a man don't lead me on
If you got a man don't crowd my phone
If you got a man and say you don't
Find somebody else
Walk on

To my surprise you was fast to say 'your kinda cute'
She got into my ride, I put it in drive and said 'I'm gonna take care of you'
She was free for the night with nothing to do even said the time and place
Almost felt too good to be true when I heard my girl say

Hook up
Go out
A few drinks
Get down
You know we can have a lot of fun tonight
Come out with me
Be straight
Don't play
It's alright
Just say
I ain't getting down with another man's girl
Oh baby please

[chorus]
If you got a man don't lead me on
If you got a man don't crowd my phone
If you got a man and say you don't

If you got a man don't lead me on
If you got a man don't crowd my phone

If you got a man and say you don't
Find somebody else

Overall Meaning

In V's song "Walk On," the singer meets a girl who he believes is stunningly beautiful and wants to hook up with her. However, he makes it clear that he has no desire to get involved with a woman who already has a man. He warns her not to lead him on, crowd his phone, or play games with him. The chorus repeats several times, emphasizing the importance of walking away if a woman is already taken.

One possible interpretation of the song is that it is a cautionary tale about seeking out temporary pleasures without necessarily thinking about the consequences. The singer sees a desirable woman and decides to pursue her impulsively, but he eventually realizes that getting involved with someone who is already in a relationship can lead to trouble.

Overall, "Walk On" is a song that encourages listeners to make healthy choices when it comes to relationships instead of taking unnecessary risks that could end up causing emotional pain or problems down the line. By respecting the boundaries of others and staying true to your own values, you can be the best version of yourself and avoid getting caught up in drama that doesn't serve your own long-term goals.
