[Intro]
Hey yeah, oh
Wooh oh, baby
Baby, oh yeah
I got this story listen up listen up listen up
[Verse 1]
I got this story about this player named Jimmy
He used to get down for me
Whenever he wanted I told him he could come get plenty
He got the remedy
My bills was paid, he kept me laced in all the [finance?]
Fell in love instantly
Then I got the call one day they told me Jimmy's gone away (What?!)
The penitentiary!
[Chorus 1]
Now it's no mystery
Now he can't come around no more
He's locked up for 10 or more
I could have just flipped your door
*phone ring*
Well I'm gon’ miss you that’s fo'sho
[Interlude: Truth Hurts, answering machine , Jimmy]
*phone ring*

[Verse 2]
Shut it down homie no I got you
