Lyrics

[Verse 1]

We started out as friends, now we friends with benefits

When the freakin' begins, that's the end of the innocence

Speakin' of innocence, baby, I can remember when

I never used to call you, I was a gentleman

I was on my cash grind, I had to make moves

And when I got mine, I came to get you

You couldn't believe the way I flipped it, did it that smooth

I couldn't believe it was that easy to impress you

[Verse 2]

Yeah, and show again how I knew that you were the one

You were a pretty little thing who had all the fun

I've been to city after city, lookin' for love

I want you, ah

I wouldn't spend a penny though I had all the change

You made me switch, now I'm thinkin' another way

And outta all these other women, I got to say

I want you, ah

[Verse 3]

(You can see it when you look around)

Yeah, said, "It's obvious, the way everybody is starin' at you"

(I'm so happy that I finally found)

I found someone to show my love (Yeah)

And it's you, babe

(And I notice that your love is real)

'Cause I never found anything like this, only when I'm around you

(It's reflected in the way I feel)

Yeah, I'ma say it, though I'm sure you know (You're so fly)

[Verse 4]

Baby, you're fly (Uh), baby, you're fly (Yeah)

I love the way you walk and the look in your eye

Maybe it's lust, maybe it's me (Yeah)

But you can be sure I'll give you what you need

[Verse 5]

(You're fly, girl) And, baby, it shows (Uh)

I would tell the world, but they already know (Yeah)

Baby, you're fly, take it from me

And you can be sure I'll give you what you need

[Verse 6]

Tonight I wanna try to engage your mind

I know you must be tired of hearin' the same old line

'Bout how they want you but they really ain't sayin' it right

I want you, uh (I know you like that)

If you feelin' what I'm sayin', then understand

I'ma stroke your body like it's an instrument

I'ma show you why my touch is so in demand

When I touch you, uh

[Verse 7]

(You can see it when you look around)

Yeah, said, "It's obvious, the way everybody is starin' at you"

(I'm so happy that I finally found)

I found someone to show my love (Yeah)

And it's you, babe

(And I notice that your love is real)

'Cause I never found anything like this, only when I'm around you

(It's reflected in the way I feel)

Yeah, I'ma say it, though I'm sure you know (You're so fly)

[Verse 8]

Baby, you're fly (Yeah), baby, you're fly (Uh)

I love the way you walk and the look in your eye

Maybe it's lust, maybe it's me (Uh)

But you can be sure I'll give you what you need (To fly, girl)

And, baby, it shows (What?)

I would tell the world, but they already know (That's right)

Baby, you're fly (Uh), take it from me

You can be sure I'll give you what you need

[Verse 9]

Let me talk to you

See, I knew you was dime when I met you on Broadway

Told you you was fly, you said, "That's what they all say"

I made it easy, you showed me the hard way

Even though the look in your eye was like foreplay

I got some great taste in women

I've had a lot, but when it comes to great face, you're winnin'

Very familiar with private spots laced in linen

It's like a curse with a gift I've been given, that's how I'm livin'

[Verse 10]

Baby, you're fly, baby, you're fly (You're so fly)

I love the way you walk and the look in your eye (I love that walk)

Maybe it's lust (Yeah), maybe it's me

But you can be sure I'll give you what you need

(Said you're fly, girl) And, baby, it shows

I would tell the world, but they already know

Baby, you're fly, take it from me

And you can be sure I'll give you what you need

[Verse 11]

Baby, you're fly (That's right), baby, you're fly (You're so fly)

I love the way you walk (Yeah) and the look in your eye

Maybe it's lust, maybe it's me

But you could be sure I'll give you what you need

(You're fly, girl) And, baby, it shows

I would tell the world, but they already know

Baby, you're fly, take it from me

You can be sure I'll give you what you need

[Verse 12]

Tonight, uh, baby, yeah

Hey, yeah, uh, rock with me now (Ho)
