[Intro]
Oooh
Huh!
Oh!
Get back on me
Ho!
[Verse 1]
You know I work too hard for this kinda play (Ho!)
I wrote a letter, for the ghetto of the CIA (Ho!)
I don't care a jack all about what cha' do (Ho!)
Just put your dime on the line, baby, 'cause I own you (Ho!)
[Chorus]
Somebody said, give up instead on how you feel (Ah-uh)
One blow to the head is all you need
I ain't takin' it ya
(Cheater) Oooooh!
Do it!, What! (Ya Got)
Do it!, What!
Get back on me…
[Verse 2]
Now you better go and get yourself some attitude (Ho!)
I know your name and the game is “I own you” (Ho!)
You're telling me that you're coming to a compromise (Ho!)
You're smiling at me while, you're stealing right before my eyes (Doggone it; Ho!)
[Chorus]
Somebody said, give up instead on how you feel (Ah-uh)
One blow to the head is all you need
I ain't takin' it ya
(Cheater) Oooooh!
Do it!, What! (Doggone it)
Do it!, What! (What!)
Get back on me…
I can't, huh!
Jack, oh-oh
[Bridge]
I hurt my backbone, baby
I start to give it up
Life is an aggravator
Sometimes I part it up
I broke my radiator
I am indestructible
I pray to leave my body
Do not you ever call
[Verse 3]
I don't care a jack all about what you do (Ho!)
Just sign your name on the line, baby, I own you (Doggone it)
(Ho!)
(You are a…)
[Chorus]
(Cheater) Ooooh!
Give it to me, what!
What!, get jack on me…
Somebody said, give up instead on how you feel (Ah-uh)
One blow to the head is all you need
I ain't takin' it ya
Cheater
