Goes something like this
'Bout twenty minutes after six
You see your man getting ready, looking fresh to deathClean as the board of health, so he gives you a kiss
Says he's 'bout to go and kick it
Chill with his boys and you get jealous
'Cause he's always with the fellasThen you hear the magic words
(Baby, I'm-a call you later)
You say be safe and don't get hurt
Now five hours later[Chorus]
Say it's midnight
Tell me, do you know where you're man is?
It's been a while
Since he left and ain't checked inIt's midnight
Tell me, do you know where you're man is?
'Cause something's up
No doubt, no doubt
Girl, you better find out find outNow you're waitin' at your crib
And all you could think about
Is where could he be at this hour
So you decide to take a trip
And hop up in the whipNow you're riding around
To all the places where you know he hangs out
Then you say to yourself
Girl, this is crazy
Why are you out looking for a lady?Then you think about the magic words
(Baby, I'm-a call you later)
Then you said be safe and don't get hurt
Now five hours later[Chorus]Beat ride[Chorus: x2]
