[Hook]
He said stand in front of me
Let me palm that ass
Show 'em you're my girl
In MAC lipstick
I'll be the king
As long as you stand in front of me
In front of me
Stand in front of me

[Verse 1]
My life's become a fantasy
I wake up, you're my man
Give me the world like, "Here you go"
Just by grabbing my hand
What you are, it puzzles me
And I love when you say "Stand in front of me"
In front of me
Stand in front of me

[Pre-Hook]
I was asked something long ago
I couldn't answer
And it bothered me a little
How do you keep your man?
And I found the best answer is simple
You just do it, do it
Mean it
Prove it
That's how you keep your man
How you keep your man
How you keep your man
How you keep your man
Ladies do it, do it
Mean it
Prove it
Oh, you gotta have a plan
Gotta take a chance
That'll keep your man
That'll keep him saying

[Hook]
Stand in front of me
Let me palm that ass
Show 'em you're my girl
In MAC lipstick
I'll be the king
As long as you stand in front of me
In front of me
Stand in front of me
In front of me
Stand in front of me
In front of me

[Verse 2]
So I get down on bended knee
And grab you by your hand
You're like, "Oh no babe, you can't do that!"
I'm like, "Oh, yes I can!"
Or we can just go back to cuddling
Or you could just say
"Stand in front of me"
Stand in front of me
Front of me
Stand in front of me

[Pre-Hook]
I was asked something long ago
I couldn't answer
And it bothered me a little
How do you keep your man?
And I found the best answer is simple
You just do it, do it
Mean it
Prove it
That's how you keep your man
How you keep your man
How you keep your man
How you keep your man
Ladies do it, do it
Mean it
Prove it
Oh, you gotta have a plan
Gotta take a chance
That'll keep your man
That'll keep him saying

[Hook]
Stand in front of me
Let me palm that ass
Show 'em you're my girl
In MAC lipstick
I'll be the king
As long as you stand in front of me
In front of me
Stand in front of me
In front of me

[Outro]
Mmm
Now I love when my man talk to me like that

Kelendria Trene Rowland, also known as Kelly Rowland, was born in Atlanta, Georgia and raised in Houston, Texas. She began her music career with the world’s second best-selling girl group of all time, Destiny’s Child, (following the Spice Girls), and her solo career has maintained her status as a legendary rhythm and blues singer/songwriter. Kelly’s singing style is most comfortable in the midrange, capable of making inflections echoing the soul-divas of the R&B golden age, inspired by their gospel roots, including Tina Turner, Aretha Franklin and Kelly’s idol Whitney Houston.

This artist’s signature songs include “Motivation” which features benchmark rapper Lil Wayne, “Kisses Down Low”, a sexy summer hit, and she achieved cross-over success in Eurodance when she paired with David Guetta for “When Love Takes Over”. On her most applauded tracks, Rowland shares her talents with old friends Beyoncé, Michelle Williams, as well as new(er) friends Fantasia and Missy Elliott.

Kelly has received a plethora of nods from the academy and others in the “five Grammy Awards, 16 Billboard Music Awards, 15 Soul Train Awards, 4 American Music Awards, 2 MTV Video Music Awards, 1 BRIT Award, 1 BET Award, 1 NAACP Image Award, a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame” and counting. 2014 was topsy-turvy for she welcomed a bouncy baby boy into the world, but lost her mother one month later.
