Check it out
Know you gotta take a joke
When you're dealing with the soul
You know we got it goin' on, on
It's so easy to say that
you wanna get with me
You know we got it goin' on,
yeah
Have you ever heard that expression,
so or not?
I guarantee you when it comes to girls,
it's somethin' real nice
Cause I was straight loungin'
in this jazz store
For records,
peeped this very fine lady four down
I gots to check her, and now I own this
Honda over in the jazz selection
Her skin was a kind of caramel,
toffee complexion
I thought that I was dreaming,
slapped myself, see I wake up
The type of girl that looks so fine
and didn't put on makeup
And I was fucked out,
I never felt this way before
And by the time I calmed down,
she was leaving the store
But she was going real quick,
yes a real fast walker
Didn't wanna follow her,
I make myself look like a stalker
But damn,
she had this innocence in her eyes
There ain't no way I'm gonna
get her number if I don't try
So I proceed out the store,
check it, I'm getting older
Run after a few yards and gently
taps her on the shoulder
And as I went to speak,
not one word I could utter
Cuz my nose was hooked to and it's faint,
smell of cocoa butter
Her hair was slicked back,
relaxed and mashed straight
When I finally spoke, I said, hold up, wait
Yo, you from round here,
what's your name, kid?
And where you goin', who you with?
A couple of things I must
be knowin'
What's those seven
numbers you got?
But no, I couldn't sweat
Cuz this girl was so fine, I call her

You know you gotta take control
When you're dealin' with the soul
You know you gotta go with the flow
It's so easy to see that
you wanna get with me
You know we got it goin' on, yeah
Her voice was cute, sounded sweet like a flute I hope
she wasn't the type that's only out for loot
Cause everything around me
right now have no relevance
And when she spoke,
you could tell she spoke of intelligence
She got more soul than anybody I know I can't believe
the way she looked and I was caught in a flow
And let you find my soul
She said, you fellas wanna get with me
And even if you don't,
you go around claiming you slept with me
I said, yo girl, don't even play me that way
But if you do not want to know me, then hun,
that's okay
She kinda stopped me in my tracks,
cause she knows the deal
Thought the way that I talk
And the way he made her feel
Would've stopped in a second
If those vibes was wack
And I could feel a little static
with the eye contact
And yo, I glanced at my watch
And then she asked me the time
I started searching in my pocket
for that ill don't rhyme
That I was writing this morning
for my brand new track
She took out a
Parker pen and wrote her
number on her back
Sometimes it's hard to find
a girl like this in your city
And even when she's mad,
damn, she still looks pretty
I had to check my
DJ, cause he was in the fest
She said she got a go -kit,
she said she got a jet
And now she said that,
ayo, she sparked a cigarette
Yeah, she was so fine, I call her

You know you gotta take it slow
When you're dealing with a soul
You go with the flow
You know we gotta go with
It's so easy to say that
you wanna get with me
But you know we got it going on again
You know you gotta take control
When you're dealing
with the slow flow
We got it going on
We got it go ing on, baby
It's so easy to say that
you wanna get with me
You know we got it goin' on,
we got goin' on
You know, you know, you know
You know, you know,
you got that sick control
