Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Listen, baby
[Verse 2]
I don't see no rings on these fingers
So I'm not gonna deal with your drama
Long as you're with me, you got to show respect
Get out and get a job and bring home a check
[Verse 3]
See, I will love you till the day I die
But never love you enough that I'ma live a lie
So three snaps up, three snaps down
Want to be treated like a king, you better wear the crown
[Verse 4]
Want to play the boss? (Guess what)
You got to pay the cost (Sho' 'nuff)
You want to wear the pants (Guess what)
You got to be a man (Sho' nuff')
Hangin' out with your friends (Guess what)
Then watch what time you come in (Sho' 'nuff)
Don't want to pay the bills (Guess what)
I know somebody who will (Sho' 'nuff), listen
[Verse 5]
Now we've been shackin' up since '93
I ain't gettin' no younger, I need some guarantees
The best years of my life is what I've given you
Argue, fuss, and fight, seems that's all you do
[Verse 6]
And us goin' to church always in your plans
But come Sunday mornin' you play sick in bed
See, I will love you till the day I die
But never love you enough to live a lie
So three snaps up, three snaps down
Want to be treated like a king, you've gotta wear the crown
[Verse 7]
Want to play the boss? (Guess what)
You've got to pay the cost, baby (Sho' 'nuff)
You want to wear the pants (Guess what)
You got to be a man (Sho' nuff')
Hangin' out with your friends (Guess what)
Better watch watch time you come in (Sho' 'nuff)
Don't want to pay the bills (Guess what)
I know somebody who will (Sho' 'nuff)
[Verse 8]
(Think we've got some issue at hand)
We need to address them baby, yeah
(I need you to understand)
That I've got needs too
(Over and over again)
Yeah, I put up with your childish games
(I just can't be raisin' no man)
Yeah, want to be treated like a king then wear the crown
[Verse 9]
Want to play the boss? (Guess what)
You got to pay the cost (Sho' 'nuff)
You want to wear the pants, yeah (Guess what)
You got to be a man (Sho' nuff')
Hangin' out with your friends (Guess what)
Watch what time you come in (Sho' 'nuff)
Don't want to pay the bills (Guess what)
I know somebody who will (Sho' 'nuff), listen
[Verse 10]
You hurt me for the last time (Guess what)
It's time to tell you what's on my mind (Sho' 'nuff)
Always rippin', runnin' these streets (Guess what)
Well, I found someone that's gonna take care of me (Sho' 'nuff)
[Verse 11]
Nothin' but lies comin' out your mouth (Guess what)
Might as well go on back to your mama's house (Sho' 'nuff)
'Cause you've been messin' around, yeah (Guess what)
And now it's time to put you down (Sho' 'nuff)
[Verse 12]
Been late comin' to the door (Guess what)
I'm not gonna take your shit no more (Sho' 'nuff)
Ladies, ladies, ladies (Guess what)
Tell me can you feel me? (Sho' 'nuff)
[Verse 13]
Ladies, ladies, ladies (Guess what)
Tell me can you feel me? (Sho' 'nuff)
Ladies, ladies, ladies (Guess what)
Tell me can you feel me? (Sho' 'nuff)
Ladies, ladies, ladies (Guess what)
Tell me can you feel me? (Sho' 'nuff)
