BABYFACE LYRICS - How Can U Be Down

"How Can U Be Down"



Called me up on a Friday night

'Cause she knew you'd be out with ya girls

Said she always thought that I was fly

Me and her should maybe take a twirl

I told her girl no no no

But she still came knocking at my door

I told her to go go home

But that made her even want me more

And now she's busy trying to signify

That there was something going on between her and I

Well that's the kinds sh*t that I won't dignify

With an answer come on



[Chorus:]

How can you be down

She ain't down for you

Don't be so naive she playin you

Why is she around

Girlfriend just ain't cool

Tried to take your man

Now she's takin you

You need to say no no no

Momma didn't raise no fool

You need to let her know know know

There'll be no more running games on you



Dropped the crib early tuesday night

'Cause she knew you'd be away at school

Tried to seduce me with all kinda lies

Tried to make me think the worst of you

I told her girl no no no

She dropped out and tried to give me a kiss

I told her to go go home

Then she said "you gon' be sorry for this"

And now she's out there trying to testify

That there is something going on between her and I

That's the kinda sh*t that I won't let get by

Don't she know that I'm grown



[Chorus]



Somtime your friends

Aint what they seem

Want all your hopes and dreams

And the will do just bout, sh*t, anything

Whatever its gonna take to bring you oo down sea

Give em' and inch they'll take a mile

Knife in your back all with a smile

Don't be surprised when they clean out your house

Betta not bring no stray dogs home



[Chorus 'til fade]
