Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Did he catch my eye
Well, is the sun up in the sky
And ain't I a woman
Say yes I am
He made me shake it
He made me break it
And when I didn't wanna break it, he's a playboy
[Verse 2]
Pinstripe suits and a rap that wouldn't quit
Carte Blanche attitude say baby, this is it
Too raw, come to Z Casbah
And he isn't even French, he's just a playboy
[Verse 3]
So fine, you know the kind
Makes you wanna holler
Hey, I'm throwing up both of my hands
Understand me when I say, yeah
[Verse 4]
I'm gonna shake it to the one I love the best, playboy
I'm gonna break it
Break it to the East and West
You know the love I give
I'm gonna shake it to the one I love the best, playboy
I'm gonna break it
Break it to the East and West, playboy
[Verse 5]
Serious love
And there ain't nothing I can do about it
When he loves me, yeah
Oh, I love my playboy
Got to let him in
Got to get him under
Underneath my skin
[Verse 6]
Did he blow my mind
Well, is there rhythm in the time
And ain't three o'clock, and say yes he is
He made me shake it
He made me break it
And when I didn't wanna break it, he's a playboy
[Verse 7]
Raw silk shirts and a New York leather look
Ooh and did I mention that he wrote the book
Too cold, or was it too bold
When he talked about his etchings, he's a playboy
[Verse 8]
And he's so fine, you know the kind
Makes you wanna holler
Hey, I'm throwing up both of my hands
Understand me when I say, yeah
[Verse 9]
I'm gonna shake it to the one I love the best, playboy
I'm gonna brake it
Break it to the East and West
You know I love it, baby
I'm gonna shake it to the one I love the best, playboy
I'm gonna break it
Break it to the East and West, playboy
[Verse 10]
Serious love
And there ain't nothing I can do about it
When he loves me, yeah
Ooh, I love my playboy
Got to let him in
Got to get him under
Underneath my skin
[Verse 11]
You're so fine
You're so fine
[Verse 12]
I'm gonna shake it and I'm gonna give him all of my love
I'm gonna shake it and I'm gonna give him all of my love
I'm gonna shake it and I'm gonna give him all of my love
I'm gonna shake it and I'm gonna give him all of my love
[Verse 13]
Serious love
And there ain't nothing I can do about it
When he loves me
When he loves me
[Verse 14]
Is that enough, love?
Yes
Was that enough, love?
[Verse 15]
Shake it
Shake
Shake
Shake
[Verse 16]
I'm gonna shake it and I'm gonna give him all of my love
I'm gonna shake it and I'm gonna give him all of my love
I'm gonna shake it and I'm gonna give him all of my love
I'm gonna shake it and I'm gonna give him all of my love
[Verse 17]
I'm gonna shake it to the one I love the best, playboy
I'm gonna break it
Break it to the East and West
You know I love it, baby
I'm gonna shake it to the one I love the best, playboy
I'm gonna break it
Break it to the East and West, playboy
Shake it, shake it, baby
