(Ooh...ooh...ooh...)

Ooh...ooh...

(Ooh...ooh...ooh...)

Listen, baby

I don't see no rings on these fingers

So I'm not gonna deal with your drama

Long as you're with me, you got to show respect

Get out and get a job and bring home a check

See, I will love you till the day I die

But never love you enough that I'mma live a lie

So three snaps up, three snaps down

Wanna be treated like a king you better wear the crown

Wanna play the boss (Guess what)

You got to pay the cost (Sho' 'nuff)

You wanna wear the pants (Guess what)

You got to be a man (Sho' 'nuff)

Hangin' out with your friends (Guess what)

Don't ask what time you come in (Sho' 'nuff)

Don't wanna pay the bills (Guess what)

I know somebody who will (Sho' 'nuff), listen

Now we've been shackin' up since '93

I ain't gettin' no younger, I need some guarantee

The best years of my life is what I've given you

Argue, fuss and fight, seems that's all you do

And us goin' to church always in your plans

But come Sunday mornin' you play sick in bed

See, I will love you till the day I die

But never love you enough to live a lie

So three snaps up, three snaps down

If you wanna be treated like a king you better wear

the crown

Wanna play the boss (Guess what)

You got to pay the cost, baby (Sho' 'nuff)

You wanna wear the pants (Guess what)

You got to be a man (Sho' 'nuff)

Hangin' out with your friends (Guess what)

Never watch what time you come in (Sho' 'nuff)

Don't wanna pay the bills (Guess what)

I know somebody who will (Sho' 'nuff)

(Think we've got some issues at hand)

We need to address 'em, baby, yeah

(I need you to understand)

That I've got needs too

(Over and over again)

Yeah, I put up with your childish games

(I just can't be raisin' no man)

Yeah, wanna be treated like a king then wear the crown

Wanna play the boss (Guess what)

You got to pay the cost (Sho' 'nuff)

You wanna wear the pants, yeah (Guess what)

You got to be a man (Sho' 'nuff)

Hangin' out with your friends (Guess what)

Watch what time you come in (Sho' 'nuff)

Don't wanna pay the bills (Guess what)

I know somebody who will (Sho' 'nuff), listen

You hurt me for the last time (Guess what)

It's time to tell you what's on my mind (Sho' 'nuff)

Always rippin' runnin' these streets (Guess what)

Well, I found someone that's gonna take care of me

(Sho' 'nuff)

Nothin' but lies comin' out your mouth (Guess what)

Might as well go on back to your mama's house (Sho'

'nuff)

'Cause you've been messin' around, yeah (Guess what)

And now it's time to put you down (Sho' 'nuff)

Really ain't comin' to your door (Guess what)

I'm not gonna take your s*** no more (Sho' 'nuff)

Ladies, ladies, ladies (Guess what)

Tell me can you feel me (Sho' 'nuff)

Ladies, ladies, ladies (Guess what)

Tell me can you feel me (Sho' 'nuff)

Ladies, ladies, ladies (Guess what)

Tell me can you feel me (Sho' 'nuff)

Ladies, ladies, ladies (Guess what)

Tell me can you feel me (Sho' 'nuff)
