Boy, I been watching you like the hawk in the sky up high
Like you are my prey
Boy, I promise you if we keep bumpin' heads
I know that one of these days
We gon' hook it up, probably talk on the phone
But see, I don't know if that's good
I been holding back this secret from you
I probably shouldn't tell it if but...
If I let you know
You can't tell nobody, I'm talking 'bout nobody
Are you responsible?
Boy I gotta watch my back 'cause I'm not just anybody
Is it my go, is it your go?
Sometimes I'm goody-goody, right now I'm naughty-naughty
Say yes or say no
'Cause I really need somebody, tell me are you that somebody?
Boy, won't you pick me up at the park right now
Up the block, while everyone
(Sleep, sleep, sleep?)
I'll be waiting there with my trench, my locs, my hat, just so I'm low key
If you tell the world
(Don't speak) you know that would be weak)
Oh boy, see I'm trusting you with my heart, my soul
I probably shouldn't let ya if I
If I let this go
You can't tell nobody, I'm talkin' 'bout nobody
I hope you're responsible
Boy I gotta watch my body 'cause I'm not just anybody
Is it my go,or is it your go?
Sometimes I'm goody-goody, right now I'm naughty-naughty
Say yes or say no
'Cause I really need somebody, tell me are you that somebody
Baby girl
I'm the man from the big Va
Won't you come play round my way
And listen to what I gotta say
Timbaland
Don't you know I am the man
Rock shows from Virginia to Japan (what)
Have people shaking shaking my hand (what)
Baby girl
Better known as Aaliyah
Give me goosebumps and high fevers
Making playa haters into believers
Don't you know
Gotta tell somebody 'cause...
'Cause I really need somebody (Uh huh)
Tell me are you that somebody! (Say What!)
If I let this go
You can't tell nobody, I'm talkin' bout nobody
Are you responsible?
Boy I gotta watch my back 'cause I'm not just anybody
Is it my go, or is it your go?
Sometimes I'm goody-goody, right now I'm naughty-naughty
Say yes or say no
'Cause I really need somebody, tell me are you that somebody?
You can't tell nobody, I'm talkin' bout nobody
I hope you're responsible?
Boy I gotta watch my back 'cause I'm not just anybody
