My home since knee high We came up on the south side Where you had to beat the street lights home We got into some street fights But the next day we be right back get it all Wherever there was me, there was you And we were like crew Straight from junior high school Then you messed it all up Started pushing up Kissed me on the cheek And I fell in love
Shorty's a little taller now Into big things, he's a baller now His heart never changed I can see he's still down I can't forget him (No no no no) More than his voice is changing now All that I see is rearranging now (Now) It just ain't the same Catchin feelings now I should tell him (Yea)
[CHORUS:] You knew you were the boy next door (Next door) Don't want to be my homeboy no more Saw something that I never saw before I think he wants to be my baby, baby Been thinkin bout him all my life (My life) Now I see him in a whole new light Something about it feels so right (That's why) I think he wants to be my baby, baby
[VERSE 2:] Every night when we get home Undercover talking on the phone Here comes my mother It's way too late Might get in trouble My heart can't wait (So much to take) Writing till my hand cramps up 4 pages saying I'm in love (I got a crush) Can't get you off my mind (Can you pick me up baby) I'm sure I'll be fine when I look into your eyes
Shorty's a little taller now Into big things, he's a baller now His heart never changed I can see he's still down I can't forget him More than his voice is changing now All that I see is rearranging now It just ain't the same Catchin feelings now I should tell him (Gotta tell him that I love him)
[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE:] Chocolate covered candy kisses They keep me reminiscing All I want is what your giving Nothing like your affection So in love and you're the reason There's no more lonely season Make me love you, drive me crazy Think I wanna be your lady [Repeat]
Oh-we-oh Oh oh oh (Don't wanna be my homeboy no more) Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh Oh oh oh Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh Oh oh oh Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh (Why why why why why) Now homeboy wants to be my baby, be my baby, be my baby Oh-we-oh Oh oh oh (He don't wanna be my homeboy no more) Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh Oh oh oh Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh (No more) Oh oh oh Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh (Said he) Now homeboy wants to be my baby, be my baby, be my baby (Wants to be my baby now, now, now now now)
