| [Verse 1] Have you ever met a girl that you tried to date But a year to make love she wanted you to wait? Let me tell a story of my situation I was talkin' to this girl from the U.S. nation The way that I met her was on tour, at a concert She had long hair and a short miniskirt I just got on stage, drippin', pourin' with sweat I was walkin' through the crowd and guess who I met I whispered in her ear, "Come to the picture booth So I can ask you some questions to see if ya hundred proof" I asked her her name, she said: "Blah-blah-blah" She had 9/10 pants and a very big bra I took a couple of flicks and she was enthused I said: "How do you like the show?" She said: "I was very amused" I started throwin' bass, she started throwin' back mid-range But when I sprung the question, she acted kind of strange Then when I asked, "Do ya have a man?", she tried to pretend She said: "No, I don't, I only have a friend" Come on! I'm not even goin' for it, this is what I'm goin' sing [Chorus] You, you got what I need But you say he's just a friend And you say he's just a friend, oh baby You got what I need But you say he's just a friend But you say he's just a friend, oh baby You got what I need But you say he's just a friend But you say he's just a friend [Verse 2] So I took blah-blah's word for it at this time I thought just havin' a friend couldn't be no crime 'Cause I have friends and that's a fact Like Agnes, Agatha, Germaine, and Jack Forget about that, let's go into the story About a girl named "blah-blah-blah" that adored me So we started talkin', gettin' familiar Spendin' a lot of time, so we can build a Relationship or some understanding How it's gonna be in the future we was plannin' Everything sounded so dandy and sweet I had no idea I was in for a treat After this was established, everything was cool The tour was over and she went back to school I called every day to see how she was doin' Every time that I called her, it seemed somethin' was brewin' I called her room, a guy picked up, but then I called again I say: "Yo, who was that?" "Oh, he's just a friend" Don't gimme that, don't even gimme that! Jus' bust this [Chorus] You, you got what I need But you say he's just a friend And you say he's just a friend, oh baby You got what I need But you say he's just a friend But you say he's just a friend, oh baby You got what I need But you say he's just a friend But you say he's just a friend [Verse 3] So, I came to her college on a surprise visit To see my girl, that was so exquisite It was a school day, I knew she was there The first semester of the school year I went to a gate to ask where was her dorm This guy made me fill out a visitor's form He told me where it was and I was on my way To see my baby doll, I was happy to say I arrived in front of the dormitory "Yo, could you tell me where is door three?" They showed me where it was for the moment I didn't know I was in for such an event So, I came to her room and opened the door Oh, snap! Guess what I saw? A fella tongue-kissin' my girl in her mouth I was so in shock, my heart went down south So please, listen to the message that I send Don't ever talk to a girl who says she just has a friend |
