Lyrics
Players, players
Only love you when they're playing
Players, players
Only love you when they're playing
Players, players
Only love you when they're playing
Players, players
Only love you when they're playing
Players, players
Only love you when they're playing
Players, players
Only love you when they're playing
Players, players
Only love you when they're playing
Players, players
Only love you when they're playing
No doubt
I'm the one your mama warned you about
I'm known for taking ladies home
And turning 'em out
'Cause I've been kissing all the girlies
And making 'em cry
I'm a wise guy with wit, the opposite of shy
Make your girl's **** shiver when she look at my eyes
So, uh, one for the money
Two's for the honeys
Three's for the pimp players
And the Playboy bunnies
Best believe I throw down
Ain't no need to slow down
You name the place and time
Find Mr. Shifty at the showdown
Tearing you up
That's why all the fly girls just can't get enough
Said I loved you, and you believed it was true
That's hilarious, but your mother shoulda warned you
'Bout guys like us, uh
I freak, freak y'all
Yeah, you know what I'm saying
'Cause players only love you when they're playing
Now players only love you when they're playing
These women that are coming, they will go
And all you players know just what I'm saying
Yeah, it's amazing just how many girls he know, oh, oh
I know it ain't right
But I don't wanna change
I got so many dames
I can't remember their names
But don't be confused
'Cause girls are players too
So we're gonna tell you
'Bout a girl we knew
She was a pretty rebel
A punk rock girl
With a wicked sex drive
And the mind of a devil
Like Agent 99
Undercover all the time
You want another kiss?
You better rack another line
Unique in design
This freak was kinda fine
But she's not the only one
There's plenty of her kind
Ain't nothing funny, baby
Her game so tight
She can make the sun shine
In the middle of the night
She knows what she want
And she get it when she want it
So she knows that you want it
She got it so she flaunts it
So get up on it
You know the old saying
Players only love you when they're playing
Now players only love you when they're playing
These women now are coming, they will go
And all you players know just what I'm saying
Yeah, it's amazing just how many girls he know, oh, oh
Only the strong survive
I come alive and hit my mark
The after dark player caper
Can't lie, I'm on the take
A heartbreaker tonight
The ladies call me Mister Right
And others call me a freak
Girl, it's okay if you bite (Ow)
Some like it violent
Mister Mysterious types
Strong and silent
King player
I cast a hex, inebriated
Talk to sex (Epic, I'm so into you)
Manipulation, I'm talking triple X rated
Sophisticated, I'm game to elevate your mind
An understated blurb, the chemistry's hot, you can't deny
So realize the size of it, I can see it in your eyes
I'd love to touch you, lady
And taste the essence of you, you wanna play?
Now, let me hear you scream out my name
Players only love you when they're playing
Now players only love you when they're playing
These women that are coming, they will go
And all you players know just what I'm saying
Yeah, it's amazing just how many girls he know
Now players only love you when they're playing
These women that are coming, they will go
And all you players know just what I'm saying
Yeah, it's amazing just how many girls he know, oh, oh
