Lyrics

Swoop Down

Girl, tell me baby
And I'll try and understand
I've been talkin' to you all night
And now you tell me that you got a man
I ain't got some kick against being friends
Girl you know I got enough of those
I only got one thing on my mind tonight
Go ask your man cause I think he knows
Yeah, he's got a man

Girl, tell me baby
And I'll try and understand
You've been staring at me all night
I know you came here with your man
I can see that he holds you real close
Now girl I think he holds you just a little too tight
When your eyes start looking out of your head
Girl I knew something just wasn't right
Ooh

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I just went nowhere

Girl, tell me baby
And I'll try and understand
We've been messing around all night
And now you tell me that you got a man
She wanna drop it in, but it's going 90 miles an hour
And you know she never used a crutch
What the hell you doin' girl, this ain't no Cadillac
Girl you're excited girl with just one touch
Don't get me wrong now girl
You know I like all this messing around
But don't believe me when I tell you babe
I didn't see you turn his pictures around
Face down

I was, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I just went nowhere
Every time I'm too late
Something happens girl
You get my state
