About This Track

Throw

I wanna see your haaaaaaaaaands

They wanna...

I wanna see your haaaaaaaaaands (uh)

Ladies...

If your man isn't the epitome of love

If your man isn't the epitome of devotion

If your man isn't the epitome of looove and devotion

Well, (well what)...

Well, then he ain't the right man...

Well, then he ain't the right man...

Well, then he ain't the...

Well, then he ain't the...

Well, then he ain't the riiiiiiiiiight...

I wanna see your haaaaaaaaaands

I wanna see your haaaaaaaaaands (uh)
