Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yea
Yo, this one's for you, boo (Oh, yeah)
You know what's up
I be drivin' around in my car
With the windows down, just thinkin' about you
I'm trippin', right?
[Verse 2]
From the way I introduced myself
She knew that I was stakin' wealth
She wasn't in it for the dollars, she had dough herself
Doe, I pulled up in my dirty ass Lex, girl
I've been workin' hard, what you expect, yo?
She smiled and laughed and just that fast
The way she made me feel, it had me trippin' man
I think I felt this way befo'
But see, that girl wasn't feelin' me, so that don't count, though
This mami that I'm talkin' 'bout, she kinda light brown, yo
The type to make me wear my seat belt and say, baby, please drive slow
Her ex-man, she had to let him know
She don't need to stress now 'cause she know I got 'dro
I think Ray J's the one you should fall fo'
You have no idea how good I'll make ya feel
Everything will be great and I'll always keep it real
So hop up in the driver's seat and dip on these chrome wheels
[Verse 3]
She's takin' control, control of me
She's takin' control, control of me
She's got me open and it's so deep
And I don't know what to do about it, baby (In all my thoughts)
[Verse 4]
She's takin' control, control of me
She's takin' control, control of me (She got me goin' crazy)
She got me doin' things I can't believe
And I don't know what to do about it, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 5]
I can't fake it, love, 'cause every time I open my eyes
I picture me and you wakin' up
She always teasin', me doin' that sexy stuff
Now it's goin' up and down, down and up
Sometimes she wear weaves, she's got a nice round butt
She like to smoke weed and not talk too much
She let me be me, she not givin' a fuck
And yet maybe one day, I'll get her finger froze up
We'll see when we get older
But now I'm doin' it Prince style with the mink fox on my shoulder
Heat tucked in my tux, pushin' a VT roaster
She's always on my mind that's why I feel she's controllin' me
She likes kissin' and holdin' me
She's hella cool with my moms and Brandy
Pops and the rest of the family
That's another reason why I thought she was right for me
[Verse 6]
She's takin' control, control of me
She's takin' control, control of me (Aight, aight)
She's got me open and it's so deep
And I don't know what to do about it, baby (And all my dogs)
[Verse 7]
She's takin' control, control of me (Oh, baby)
She's takin' control, control of me
She's doin' things I can't believe
And I don't know what to do about it, baby (Hey, yo, yo, yo)
[Verse 8]
Formerly I'm cold, but you warming me
And when it gets hot, you the wind blowin' me
Yeah, you know, park in the Benz
Low in the seat, and the way I teach ladies, you'll be a pro in a week
You can be my Mignon and I can be your Filet
You can be my Janet, I'll be better than Rene
We can hit crustaceans and eat soufflé
And you know I keep my keys when I park valet
[Verse 9]
Yeah, I spark that A, got you spoiled that way, it's hard that way
But you know, ain't nothin' hard for Ray
I do it that way and don't care, the crib you can go there
We can get engaged and take photos, yeah, yeah
Couple four wheelies and four poster, yeah
Push the blue R and Rs, four doors, yeah
Like the artist formerly known, nothing compares
You gon' be my girl, 'cause I be mo' for years
[Verse 10]
When I'm up in the club, I be thinkin' 'bout you
When I'm rollin' on dubs, I be thinkin' 'bout you
I think I'm in love, 'cause it's all about you
Baby (It's all about you, baby, I thought you knew that)
When I'm up in the club, I be thinkin' 'bout you (For real)
(Can you feel me?) When I'm rollin' on dubs, I be thinkin' 'bout you
I think I'm in love, 'cause it's all about you
Baby, baby (I tell all my **** about you, girl, for real)
[Verse 11]
She's takin' control, control of me
She's takin' control, control of me (And I don't know what to do)
She's got me open and it's so deep
And I don't know what to do about it, baby
[Verse 12]
(She's takin' control, control of me) She got me open
(She's takin' control, control of me) She's got me wonderin'
(She's doin' things I can't believe)
(And I don't know what to do about it, baby) Aw, yeah yeah
[Verse 13]
I'm tellin' ya
I done mess wit a lotta bad girls in my day
But you? You the one, baby (Got me wonderin', yeah)
(We're gonna be together forever)
[Verse 14]
Aw, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo
Yeah
Whoo!
