The Way I Do (feat. Mr.Cheeks, Mr. Cheeks & Baby) Lyrics


Yeah, yeah, just clap with us
It's B. McKnight, yeah yeah
And Rio Yellowman winans, just clap with us
See real men know what they really want
Mr. Cheeks, talk to that girl right there for me, I need thatSpecial kinda friend
Lemme clown with ya
Get to know you little better
Spend some time with yaHit the town with ya
Spend every dime with you
No matter what you wanna do
As long as I'm with youGet your picture painted
Place it on my wall
And as long as I want
I'm giving you my allBut when the night falls
We hold each other all night
Play some B. Knight
He'll make it all rightI can see it in your eyes
Your looking at a real man

I don't wear a disguise
Gonna make you understandI know you heard a lot of lines
I won't beat around the bush
I know I'm gonna make ya mine
But I'm not gonna pushGirl, I don't mean to come off
As cocky, or conceited
But I believe
That you were meant, just for meAnd there should be nothing
But love coming betweens us
And we will be
Together always, baby yeah, babyBaby, I don't mean come on strong
But you should be with somebody
Who understands you like I doI'll be right here
If ever you need a hand or two
To help you get where you going to
Lemme show you the way I doI would never do you wrong
Like some other fella did
It only matters where you going
Don't matter where you beenI calculated all the costs
Measured what your worth
And right after God
Girl, I'm puttin' you firstGirl, I don't mean to come off
As cocky, or conceited
But I believe
That you were meant, just for meAnd there should be nothing
But love coming betweens us
And we will be
Together always, babyBaby, I don't mean come on strong
But you should be with somebody
Who understands you like I doI'll be right here
If ever you need a hand or two
To help you get where you going to
I'll show you the way I doSpecial kind of love
Special kind of friend
Special kind of heart
Special till the endSpecial, I can't front
How special it could be
Special in my arms
Special you and meI could see it in your eyes, I can feel your thighs
You in that new Benz, with that flat skinned tires
Fly skirt, with your Gucci shirt
Stiletto Boots, tell the maid mink skirtYou're independent and you bought your work
It don't matter the stunna, 'cause I puts in work
Its me and B. Knight go to mall and flirt
With the fly girls and they fly skirts
Holla holla, you feel me nowBaby, I don't mean come on strong
But you should be with somebody
Who understands you like I doI'll be right here
If ever you need a hand or two
To help you get where you going to
I'll show you the way I doSpecial kind of love
Has a special kinda friend
Special kind of heart
Special till the endSpecial, I can't front
Special in my arms
Special it could be
Special you and me
The way I do

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Brian McKnight (born June 5, 1969 in Buffalo, New York) is an American singer, songwriter, arranger, producer and one of the prominent singers of his years, specializing in pop and R&B. He is a multi-instrumentalist and plays the piano, guitar, and trumpet.

Embracing an effortless eloquence and cocoa butter smooth persona, the music of Brian McKnight has defined the true meaning of an American soul-man since 1991. Like his spiritual Motown godfathers, this upstate New York native has a velvety voice and silky style that captures the vibe of vintage soul without being old fashion. On his latest disc Ten, that blend can be clearly heard.

While Brian’s aspirations might have seemed like a lofty ambition, the longevity of his career is a testament to the purity of his vision. With the release of Ten, McKnight’s first disc for his new label Warner Bros Records, the Grammy-nominated singer could not be more pleased with the outcome. Without a doubt, the landscape of soul music has gotten younger, but that fact did not hinder McKnight’s creative process.

After 16 million albums sold since his self-titled debut, it would have been too easy for McKnight to simply follow the R&B template of rote romanticism. But on Ten, the artist in him felt the need to be more revealing. Though McKnight has been friends with producers Tim & Bob for over ten years, this is the trio’s first collaboration.

Though Brian has never been the kind of singer/songwriter that one would call political that didn’t stop him from penning “Red, White & Blue,” a heart wrenching ode for the men and women currently at war, teaming up with country star Rascal Flatts.

Currently working on a variety of projects including a talk show and soundtracks for two upcoming Tyler Perry projects, the veteran soul singer could not be happier with the outcome of Ten. For fans of real music, Ten is the perfect addition to the soul cannon.
