There's a Thug In My Life

[Verse 1: Rihanna]

Gotta keep it on the down low

I'll never let my mama know

Only call him on my cell phone

Only see him after dark

I met him on the six train

Just the way he said my name

The brother had a lotta game

Had me open from the start

He scoops me up in his ride

Friday about a quarter to nine

So fly and so fine, and I'm so glad that he's all mine

[Chorus: Rihanna]

There's a thug in my life

How am I gonna tell my mama?

She's gonna say it ain't right, but he's so good to me

There's a thug in my life

And it's gonna cause crazy drama

I'm gonna see him tonight

I'm gonna give him everything

[Verse 2: Rihanna]

I know his crew's kinda shady

Sometimes it gets kinda crazy

But he treats me like a lady

Gives me everything I need

I don't care who's hating on me

'Cause every night, he's waiting on me

He's got mad personality, a side they never see

My friends tell me to slow down

But every time that he's around

My heart's on lock down

I feel love and I'm so proud

[Chorus: Rihanna]

There's a thug in my life

How am I gonna tell my mama?

She's gonna say it ain't right, but he's so good to me (So good to me)

There's a thug in my life

And it's gonna cause crazy drama

I'm gonna see him tonight

I'm gonna give him everything (Give him everything)

[Bridge: Rihanna]

Mama, don't worry, I'm not in a hurry

I won't disappoint you, I won't make you sorry

He's the one for me (He's all I ever need)

We'll be together from now 'til forever

I know it's the real thing

If you don't, whatever

And I know it's meant to be (I know it's meant to be, I know it's meant to be)

[Chorus: Rihanna]

There's a thug in my life

How am I gonna tell my mama? (How am I gonna tell my mama?)

She's gonna say it ain't right, but he's so good to me (Yeah)

There's a thug in my life

And it's gonna cause crazy drama

I'm gonna see him tonight

I'm gonna give him everything (Give him all of me)

[Outro: Rihanna]

Mama, don't worry, I'm not in a hurry (All of me)

I won't disappoint you, I won't make you sorry
