Admit [Am] it, you did it, let's hop a [Bm] cab and split [Am] it
I'm kidding, we both going to where you [Em] living
I got you giggling [Bm] like a piglet, oh that's [C] the ticket
I hope you're more [Bm] like Anita Baker [Am] than Robert Gibbons
No I don't know that lady so [Bm] let me quit [Am] it
I'm just style freeing, freestyling with y'all seldom [Em] do
This is what I'm telling [Bm] you, chill the bed I'm telling [Em] you
Like I've been in jail [Bm] for two years and then they let [Am] me in for three
[Em] You [Am] got you on legend
Sometimes you gotta step behind that piano
[Bm] Let them know what's going [C] on
[Em] [Bm] Even Stephen Warner got down some [Am] time
[Em] [G] [A] [Am] I read the script
