[Verse 1: L.L. Cool J]
They call me Big Elly, a bit silly
But big money, big really
When I'm sliding in the Martin ya hear me
I be slicing with these bars so ya fear me
Let me rip it up for cuz in the back
Let me flip I put a buzz in ya hat
I'ma tell ya how to cause an attack
Timbaland, Ladies Love on the track
Lovely get the ice, pop champagne
Don't forget I used to ride on the train
When I bump it right, call my name
Go crazy in the mall wit James
Dump cat, not ill like me
Bring the women in to chill for free
Let me tell ya girl, don't try me
You better have I.D.!

[Hook: Timbaland]
When we be up in the club, we be posting the back
When we be in the club, girl always come to the back
And we 'bout to get our head sprung
And we 'bout to get our head sprung
And we 'bout to get our head sprung
And we 'bout to get our head sprung
When we be up in the club, we be posting the back
When we be in the club, girl always come to the back
And we 'bout to get our head sprung
And we 'bout to get our head sprung
And we 'bout to get our head sprung
And we 'bout to get our head sprung

[Verse 2: L.L. Cool J]
Lord have mercy! If the broad is thirsty
I'll have her man reimburse me
The part that hurts me, is when they try to work me
But I could never let ya jerk me
Steady sticking to the wall, give it up
Sneaking through the back door, live it up
Got the champagne, pour me a cup
Got the girls looking raw in the front
Got a call, your man's in town
Tell the bar a-nother round
Got all my mans holding me down
Kinda thick ma, let's get down, so get wit it
I'm saying what time wanna dip wit it?
Got playas on the grind, wanna skip wit it
Backstage you mine, I'm a spit wit it, hey!

[Hook: Timbaland]
When we be up in the club, we be posting the back
When we be in the club, girl always come to the back
And we 'bout to get our head sprung
And we 'bout to get our head sprung
And we 'bout to get our head sprung
And we 'bout to get our head sprung
When we be up in the club, we be posting the back
When we be in the club, girl always come to the back
And we 'bout to get our head sprung
And we 'bout to get our head sprung
And we 'bout to get our head sprung
And we 'bout to get our head sprung

LL Cool J

Deriving his name from the statement “Ladies Love Cool James,” LL Cool J became a superstar rapper after his Def Jam debut in 1984. He mixed a hardcore hip-hop style from songs like “I’m Bad” with R&B style on songs like “I Need Love,” which led him to multi-platinum success and several awards. He would later venture into movies and television, write several books, and start different business ventures.

Born January 14, 1968, Queens, New York native James Todd Smith began rapping at the age of nine and started to seriously pursue rapping when he was 16 years old after his grandfather bought him music equipment, which he used to create a demo tape that was sent to numerous labels. He was signed by upstart independent label Def Jam, working with founders Russell Simmons and Rick Rubin to release his debut single “I Need a Beat” in 1984, which sold over 100,000 copies. This success helped Def Jam secure a distribution deal with Columbia Records.

LL released his debut album Radio in 1985, which achieved platinum status with help from the hit singles “I Can’t Live Without My Radio” and “Rock the Bells.” After working exclusively with Rick Rubin on his debut, LL worked with the West Coast production crew L.A. Posse on his second album Bigger and Deffer, released in 1987. The album featured two of LL’s signature the hard-edged “I’m Bad” and the “rap ballad” “I Need Love,” which was a Top 20 pop hit, helping the album achieve double platinum status.
