here we go again,
your about to cry, i a'm about to listen to
another n*!&az lies.
everytime you call you want good advice,
everytime you ask i tell you everythings alright.
first you let it go,
gave him one more chance
this time makes number three, it's a different circumstance,
women on the side, baby mamma's too, this time i can't hold back
i think he's running game on you

(chorus) if you don't know where your man is
and he's left you home with both of your kids
girl your man's a hoe
a player
a certified hoe, (hoe,hoe,hoe)

if he can't call home to explain
and all of a sudden everything has changed
girl your man's a hoe
a player
a certified hoe.


you say your man get's off from work at nine
so why'd he turn his cell phone off til one o'clock at night
i'm try'ner tell you like a friend
that if you think you smell fish, you do girlfriend (he's been cheating on you)
don't take a blind amn to see
that your just holding on for what you wish that this could be
but see, everyman's got his own set of rule,
lines that he won't cross if he's being true to you (ooh, ooh)

(chorus) if you don't know where your man is
and he left you home with both of your kids
girl your man's a hoe
a player
a certified hoe (hoe, hoe, hoe)


if he can't call home to explain (why why)
and all of a sudden everything has changed
girl your man's a hoe
a player
a certified hoe.
(and i don't wanna)


bridge: see i don't to come across
like i'm coming down on all of my players
but if you got a family, waiting at home,
you should be there, you should be there.
this goes out to all of my ladies and the fella's, waiting for someone
they love to come home.
if their not there, and they should be there
then it's certified,(certified)
he's a certified hoe (hoe ooh, ooh)


(chorus)
if you don't know where your man is
and he left you home with both of your kids
girl your man's a hoe
a player
a certified hoe (hoe, hoe, hoe)

if he can't call home to explain
and all of a sudden everything has changed
girl your man's a hoe
a player
a certified hoe


repeat chorus until end (and ad libs)
