Acknowledge Me Lyrics

    Hey! {"cross the line" sample}
    {"down on it" repeats in bg}

    Say baby, what u waitin' on?
    4 u, uh, ain't no other fish in the sea
    What u waitin' on?
    Acknowledge me

    Acknowledge me, don't dog me anymore
    I was here in the beginning and i'll be here 4ever more
    Acknowledge me, i only wanna be your friend
    I can make u happy baby, over and over again

    Saw u at the party, u were lookin' so fly
    Everybody wanted your number, u wanted mine
    U came right up 2 me in one wink of an eye
    U told me that u think of me both day and night and that is why

    I've got 2 know how can u give your body 2 another
    When your mind is here with me?
    U need a friend much more than a lover
    That's all i ever said i wanted 2 be

    Chorus:
    Acknowledge me, don't dog me anymore (no baby)
    I was here in the beginning and i'll be here 4ever more
    Acknowledge me, i only wanna be your friend (oh baby)
    I can make u happy baby, over and over again

    I'm waitin' 4 the phone call, but it just don't ring
    I'm lookin' 4 a letter or a sign from heaven or anything
    Everyday that goes by is another day i want u more
    I'd give a million dollars 2 see u baby standin' at my door

    I'll lay u down and tell u stories
    About the way that we could be
    And when u're ready 2 feel the glory (feel the glory)
    I will only want 2 love u when it's somethin' that u need

    Chorus

    Not that u care 4 a silly rhyme frontin' an old cliché (yeah) (yeah)
    But look at me baby, what can i say?
    There ain't another fish in the sea (yeah)
    I could be singin' a song any style, any way
    Ain't nothin' but a trick 2 me (blow)
    But i'm gonna blow this horn until u're on your knees
    Beggin' me please, please, please
    Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme love i can count on
    Gimme, gimme body i can't go without
    Uh, slaves 4 one another (hey!)
    Yeah baby, that's what i do believe i am talkin' about
    So let me know how u wanna go? (yeah)
    U wanna get with that or this? (yeah)
    Uh, acknowledge me, baby
    U got 2 or u can.. kiss..

    How can u give your body 2 another? (how can u, baby?)
    When your mind is here with me (it's here with me)
    U need a friend much more than a lover (u need a friend)
    That's all i ever said i wanted 2 be
    (that's all i ever, ever wanna be baby)
    (acknowledge me, me, me, oh yeah!)
    Acknowledge, acknowledge, acknowledge, acknowledge me

    Acknowledge me, don't dog me anymore (no baby)
    I was here in the beginning and i'll be here 4ever more
    Acknowledge me, i only wanna be your friend
    I can make u happy baby, over and over again (and over again,
    Yeah)

    Acknowledge me, don't dog me anymore (don't cha dog me girl)
    (i'll be here, i'll be here 2 wipe away your tears)
    Acknowledge me, i only wanna be your friend
    (oh, don't cha worry about a thing)
    I can make u happy baby, over and over again (oh, yeah)

    Come on pretty baby, sit your butt on the chair there
    And let me run a gender in and out of your hair fair
    A gender 4 the morning, noon and night, so prepare there
    U could come alone or tell a friend, i don't care bear
    This a funky party so u need 2 be open
    Givin' up all i need so i don't need 2 be hopin'
    And even if we're dealin' with that time of the month
    It's 4th and goal and i ain't about 2 punt
    Cuz as soon as u be strollin' in your lagerfeld blazer
    U need 2 know how many ways a brother can praise ya
    2 bad 4 hell, 2 good 2 let heaven raise ya
    And if u wanna see my dream, i need u 4 days and days
    Baby doll, can u get the hell away
    From that thing u call a man and then we can play
    The kind of music that'll make your big butt sway
    2 the back, 2 the forth
    When it's all said a better brother should be more
    Thank the lord
    Huh, 4 a body like that, titties swingin' like a door
    Gimme 2 times just 2 thank my savior
    Girl, what can i say, u got the crazy flavor
    I'm givin' u plenty propers so u got 2 score
    The only one that's gonna make u holler 4 more
    Like a whore, i'm yours
    Acknowledge me, baby, what are u waiting 4?

    {"down on it" repeats in bg}
    Welcome, this is where i live {fades out}
    This is where i dream my dreams
    2night we'll make love until the world stops turning
    U're small but very strong, u move like a cat
