Don't keep me waiting for too long, girl
Come through, take it off, let's get it on, girl
Too long I've been messin' with the wrong girl
Shoulda known that you was right where I belong, girl
I won't keep you waiting for too long, boy
Come through and take it off and get it on boy
Too long I was messin' with the wrong boy
Shoulda known you was right where I belong boy
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh

Mami, I got something to share with you
And put together a plan, I wanna prepare wit ya
Listen, I ain't tryin' to annoy ya, I got it for ya
I might want to spoil ya and cook a little arroz con pollo
Ma, you're more than a dime, you're like a roll of quarters
Thе shit's in order, purer than a dozen of bottled waters
Makes me wanna just kinda, wanna see ya longer than normal
Kinda wanna support her, sorta love up on her
Kissin', touchin' ya, feelin' when you rub up on her
Kinda feel like she want me put the lovin' on her
Now everything 'bout this feel good, let's put it all in order
Ain't tryin' to rush it but it's hard to fight this any longer
(What you tryin' to fight, baby?)
I ain't tryin' to fight it, but
(I ain't tryin' to fight it, baby)
I'm sayin', see I don't even know what's happening
Shit is makin' me bug
It feels good but I wish I knew what it was 'cause
Look here
Don't keep me waiting for too long, girl
Come through, take it off, let's get it on, girl
Too long I've been messin' with the wrong girl
Shoulda known that you was right where I belong, girl
I won't keep you waiting for too long, boy
Come through and take it off and get it on boy
Too long I was messin' with the wrong boy
Shoulda known you was right where I belong boy
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Right where I belong, girl
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Right where I belong, boy
Check it, ma
I love the way you that you put it down and you rep it, ma
The way you ride for your nigga, yes I respect it, ma
And if I make a mistake, you help me correct it, ma
I'm wit you, you know how I want it, girl
Let me just take you mental through motions around the world
And when it's most essential, I love how you make it work
And with the most potential I hope that you never hurt, I hope you see it
But girl you my greatest supporter
And when I talk about us I give 'em another scorcher
And when I walk around, as you standing in front the altar
And let's rewrite our history standing in front the author, you know we need it
When I'm lookin' at chu I'm sippin' a malta
And every time we be together the temperature warmer
You know I'm tryin' but
(What you tryin' to fight, baby?)
You see this candle here for us and I'm lighting it baby
Come on, baby, look here
Don't keep me waiting for too long, girl
Come through, take it off, let's get it on, girl
Too long I've been messin' with the wrong girl
Shoulda known that you was right where I belong, girl
I won't keep you waiting for too long, boy
Come through and take it off and get it on boy
Too long I was messin' with the wrong boy
Shoulda known you was right where I belong boy
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Right where I belong, girl
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Right where I belong, boy
Baby girl better know that I really give it up to you
And I know I ain't feelin' right, but I know it's all because of you
All the weight you be carrying, I wanna lift it off for you
All the lovin' that you need, in my heart got it all for you
Baby girl you're someone and then you know I gotta get it
And I'm comin' and I'm runnin' and let none other that love
And that lovin' better 'nother man like no other
And the lovin' I'mma heal
That lovin' you need in a strong way, long way
Now come and give it to me all day
Don't keep me waiting for too long, girl
Come through, take it off, let's get it on, girl
Too long I've been messin' with the wrong girl
Shoulda known that you was right where I belong, girl
I won't keep you waiting for too long, boy
Come through and take it off and get it on boy
Too long I was messin' with the wrong boy
Shoulda known you was right where I belong boy
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Right where I belong, girl
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Right where I belong, boy
