Sittin' on bone,
wishin' that I could do her

Eventually if it was meant to be,
then it would be

'Cause we related,
physically and mentally

In a method that was leisurely,

so easily I approach

bass, and jazz

Now black music is black music
and it's all good

I wasn't salty she was with
the boys in the hood
