Intro: I'm so high
[Puffy] Rock on!

[Verse One: LL Cool J]
Black shades, three-quarter leathers and medallions
Honies lined up ready to ride like stallions
Since good love is hard to find
I snatch up the real hot ones and make 'em mine
I let my track record speak instead of me
On a level that the halfway players will never see
Uhh, wave your drinks in the air
Shorty turn around keep the ass right there
Focus your attention-let your eyes
Get paralyzed, by the size
Of my rocks, just remember that members of my click carry Glocks
We got it locked down
Mo' flowin', click rollin'
Niggas still smokin' [L get 'em open]
Team rough scoop the cream with the puff
You oughtta stop sleepin', you don't dream enough

[Bridge: Mary J. Blige]
Oooooh baby, not tonight, I don't wanna fuss and fight
I just wanna make it right
Oooooooh, there's work to do
I wanna get real close to you, I wanna get you in the mood
All the things, you want to do
Just relax, and I'll take care of you
And anytime you want me
I'm sayin' that I love you everyday
And I know that you want me, baby admit it

[Chorus:]
Gimme all your love and don't stop
My love's waiting when you reach the top
All night long
Come into my bedroom honey
What I got will make you spend money
All night long

[Verse 2: Mary J. Blige]
You know, that I know that you love me
So if you just give me a change
I can still show you romance
I know, that you still savor for my flavor baby
So stop playin' hard to get
Let's make love like we first met
All the things, you want to do
Just relax, and I'll take care of you
And anytime you want me
I'm sayin' that I love you everyday
And you know that you want me baby admit it

[Chorus]

[Verse 3: LL Cool J]
Girlfriend you get me open like Moet, cherry goes pop
When my love drops
Two G's in my pockets for tricks
So tell your girlfriends to warm up and mingle with my click
You're only a customer
You're walking in the presence of hustlers
I did it just right
Spent money all night
Magnums of Moet
Get your lips wet

[Chorus x2]

Mary Jane Blige (b. Jan 11 1971) grew up in the projects of Yonkers, New York. A random decision to record a cover of “Caught Up in the Rapture” by Anita Baker in a pop-up recording booth at a mall led MJB to getting signed by Uptown Entertainment. After providing background vocals on Father MC’s hit single “I’ll Do 4 U” in 1990, a young intern at Uptown named Sean “Puffy” Combs ended up executive producing Mary’s 1992 debut album What’s The 411?. Fusing hip-hop beats with Mary’s soulful voice earned her the nickname “Queen of Hip-Hop Soul”.

She followed up her debut with a string of critically acclaimed albums, including 1994’s My Life and 1997’s Share My World, as well as hit singles such as “Not Gon' Cry,” “Family Affair,” “Be Without You,” and “Just Fine.”

She also collaborated with rappers on a number of tracks, including Jay-Z’s “Can’t Knock the Hustle,” Ghostface Killah’s “All That I Got is You,” Wyclef’s “911,” Common’s “Come Close,” and Method Man’s “I’ll Be There for You/All I Need to Get By,” which was a platinum hit and won the two of them a Grammy Award in 1996 for Best Rap Performance By a Duo or Group.
