Didn't I Tell You Lyrics


[Too $hort]
Hey Keyshia
This yo big homie $hort dog from the town
I know you big balling baby
And I don't wanna get no phone calls talking bout,
Keyshia at the house curled up crying with her heart broke
You know you wasn't raised like that
You need to hit a club or something
You going out, Keyshia
[Keyshia]
So while you going out having your fun, I should sit here waiting for you
All this time I've invested in you baby,
Now you kicking yo dubs and making yo runs and popping yo drank and having your fun
But see its OK, cause what goes around comes around and its always been that way
[Chorus]
Didn't I tell ya I was gonna be the one

Be the one and when its all done boy
She cant love you like I do
Didn't I tell ya boy
Didn't I tell you, didn't I tell you, didn't I tell you
Didn't I tell ya boy
[Keyshia]
So now the sun coming at ya won't change, but I ain't sitting out there crying and shit
So while you rolling out doing yo thing, I be popping my bottles,
Rolling on dubs, hanging with my girls, I be having my fun
Cause I don't deserve all the games you play
Now you coming back this way
[Chorus]
[Keyshia]
You going out knowing everybody's watching (hey player)
But she could never be me and ya know it baby (she got the game)
The proof is in the putting ain't no way to hide it
Didn't I tell ya boy (I know she told you)
[Too $hort]
You think you got her stuck you must be smoking
She got a lot of money too she ain't no joke man
We raised her good she got the game before the fame
You should call, ain't nothing changed you know her name
See her riding something clean looking hella fly
I know you first should change your mind I'm bout to tell ya why
She ain't staying at the house she goin out
To some exclusive shit, that you don't know about
Knew she wouldn't be curled up, crying with a broke heart
She bout to get chased and go hard
And if you wanna run the streets, chasing hoes dude
She'll be out chilling cause you ain't doing what you suppose to
[Chorus]

Joyce "Baby Jean" Kennedy was born in Anguilla, MS, in 1948, and raised in Chicago. It's unclear how Andre Williams became her early mentor, but he produced nearly all her early sides on Ran Dee, Fontana, and Blue Rock Records. She notched a local hit with "Darling I Still Love You," which was co-written by Williams. Released in 1963, it received little airplay anywhere else. A second release on Ran Dee, "Can't Take a Chance," also failed to perform. Kennedy then appeared on Fontana Records with "Paddle My Own Canoe." With Williams still at the helm, she released "I'm a Good Girl." The boisterous single became her second local hit, but once again, went nowhere outside of Cook County. A second Blue Rock release, "My Hi Fi Albums and Me," flopped as well, but is sought after by some collectors and is found on some Northern soul compilations.

Though the recordings ended, she still performed all over the Chicago area. She met singer Glenn Murdock, an ex-Vondells member, and the soulful duet embarked on tours across the country. After marrying, the two formed Mother's Finest in 1975, presumptively billed as the first black rock band. They had a steady stream of album releases, all critically acclaimed, but only scrounged a couple of small hits. A nonentity for black audiences, the band's fondest fans were white, and after disbanding in 1984, Kennedy signed with A&M. During 1984-85, she enjoyed a string of hit singles, led by the Top 40 "The Last Time I Made Love" (a duet with Jeffrey Osborne), but also including "Stronger than Before," "Lookin' for Trouble," and "Hold On (For Love's Sake)." She still sings for Mothers Finest. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
