LL COOL J Around the Way Girl lyrics

You got me shook up, shook down, shook out on your loving
On your loving

I want a girl with extensions in her hair
Bamboo earrings at least two pair
A Fendi bag and a bad attitude
That's all I need to get me in a good mood

She can walk with a switch and talk with street slang
I love it when a woman ain't scared to do her thing
Standing at the bus stop sucking on a lollipop
Once she gets pumping it's hard to make the hottie stop

She likes to dance to the rap jam
She sweet as brown sugar with the candied yams
Honey coated complexion using Camay
Let's hear it for the girl she's from around the way

Around the way girl that's the one for me
That's the one for me
I need an around the way girl
You got me shook up, shook down, shook out on your loving

Silky, milky her smile is like sunshine
That's why I had to dedicate at least one rhyme
To all the cuties in the neighborhood
'Cause if I didn't tell you then another brother would

Your sweet like sugar with your gangster talk
Want to eat you like a cookie when I see you walk
With your rayon, silk or maybe even denim
It really doesn't matter as long as you're in 'em

You can break hearts and manipulate minds
Or surrender act tender be gentle and kind
You always know what to say and do
Cold flip when you think your man is playing you

Not cheap but petty, you're ready for loving
You're real independent so your parents be bugging
But if you ever need a place to stay
Come around my way

I need an around the way girl
That's the one for me

She's the only one for me
You got me shook up, shook down, shook out on your loving

Perm in your hair or even a curly weave
With that New Edition, Bobby Brown button on your sleeve
I tell you come here you say meet me half way
'Cause brothers been popping that game all day

Around the way you're like a neighborhood jewel
All the home boys sweat you so you're crazy cool
Wear your gold in the summer with your biking shorts
While you watching all the brothers on the basketball court

Going to the movies with your home girls crew
While the businessmen in suits be hawking you
Baby, hair pumping, lip gloss is shining
I think you in the mood for whining and dining

So we can go out and eat somewhere
We got a lot of private jokes to share
Lisa, Angela, Pamela, Renee I love you
You're from around the way

I need an around the way girl
That's the one for me
I need an around the way girl
An around the way girl fine as can be

I need an around the way girl
That's the one for me
I need an around the way girl fine as can be
You got me shook up shook down shook out on your loving
You got me shook up shook down shook out

You got me shook up shook down shook out on your loving
You got me shook up shook down shook out
You got me shook up shook down shook out on your loving
You got me shook up shook down shook out

You got me shook up shook down shook out on your loving
You got me shook up shook down shook out
You got me shook up shook down shook out on your loving
