Slick & Rose Bona Fide Lyrics

Intro:
La Oh
La Oh
La Oh
Verse 1
Lonely people on the street
watch the women that you meet
kitchen's hot, can't stand the heat
words they chew are hard to eat
Why are people all up in the business?
Can't you see they'll only try to end this?
Tell your boys you've got to mind
They're business or you'll end up lonely and dependent
Hook:
Ain't no need to cry
My love is bona fide
I tried and I tried
to hold you down

to hold you down

Verse 2
They want to see us fall apart
salt our wounds, bruise our hearts
knock us down before we start I can tell you who they are
I wanting you and for me that can't be wrong
Still wanting you so for me could you hold on
Hook repeats
Bridge:
People try to tell me that you're gonna leave me lonely
but they don't know
People try to tell me that I'm not you're one and only
but they don't know
People try to tell me you're just trying to get up on
me but they don't know
People try to tell me I'm a fool and you're a phony but
they don't know
They don't know
They don't know
They don't know
They don't know
They don't know-o, know-o, know-o, know-o
