LeMarvin – Thug Like Me lyrics
What I wanna know (now)
Is why you coming through (now)
A pretty girl like you (now)
What you tryin to prove
If your daddy knew where you was he'd hate it
And who you was with he'd probably go crazy
He wants you with a college educated guy who
Made it out the hood
And your friends think I'm bad news
They think I'm trouble
I'd tell you leave
You just say I love you
So can you tell me
What a good girl like you
Want with a thug like me
I'm living in the hood
You living in the burbs
I don't think it's gonna work
No no no
So what a good girl like you
Want in a thug like me
Is it my style that's got you going wild
Now baby can you tell me
You from a good home
You used to good food
The trips in the summer while I'm on the corner
Opposites attract but this aint your life
No you think I'm wrong but trust be I'm right
How would you feel if you got that phone call
Saying I got locked up or the block got shot up
And there's a possibility if you're with me
You say that's fine if I got to do time
Then I wanna know
What a good girl like you (oohhh)
Want with a thug like me (want with a thug like me)
I'm living in the hood
You living in the burbs
I don't think it's gonna work (I don't think it's gana work)
No, no, no (no no no, no no no)
So what a good girl like you (can you tell me)
Want in a thug like me (what would you want baby)
Is it my style that's got you going wild (is it my, that's got you goin)
Now baby can you tell me
(Baby can you tell me)
What is it bout me
Is it my gangsta walk
A gangsta glare
(Or is it my)
A gansta talk
A gangsta stare
I'm not the kind of guy
You'd want to settle down with
(No I'm not the kinda guy)
Not the kind of guy
You'd wana give your heart to (ooo ohh)
Not the kind of guy (I'm not the kinda guy)
That you're not gonna take home
(So baby wont you let me know)
What a good girl like you
Want with a thug like me (what would you want)
I'm living in the hood
You living in the burbs (ooooooh oooohhhhhh)
I don't think it's gonna work
No no no
So what a good girl like you
Want in a thug like me
(Coz there's nobody, that want you with me)
Is it my style that's got you going wild
Now baby can you tell me
Why you wanna be with
A thug like me
Daddy said stay away from
A thug like me
Mama warned you about
A thug like me
And your friends don't like
A thug like me
But you keep coming to
A thug like me
And you keep calling
A thug like me
What is it about
A thug like me
That's got you goin crazy for
A thug like me
What a good girl like you
Want with a thug like me
I'm living in the hood
You living in the burbs
I don't think it's gonna work
No no no
So what a good girl like you
Want in a thug like me
Is it my style that's got you going wild
Now baby can you tell me
Is why you coming through (now)
A pretty girl like you (now)
What you tryin to prove
If your daddy knew where you was he'd hate it
And who you was with he'd probably go crazy
He wants you with a college educated guy who
