The Way That You Talk Lyrics

[Intro: Jermaine Dupri]
There's somethin' 'bout the way you talk to me, hahaha
Come on, So So Def

[Verse 1: Da Brat, Jermaine Dupri & Both]
It's scary, I'm a subsidiary of So So Def (Uh)
Next to Jay D, this funkdafide, baby, keep 'em crazy
My mentality happen to be livin' lavish (Uh)
With formalities of havin' the fat shit (What?)
My status is impeccable
We wreckin' your crew (Uh), the casualty is you (Uh-huh)
Jagged Edge comin' through (Who?)
Remember who

[Interlude: Jermaine Dupri & Da Brat]
Hit it, did it somethin' like a thousand times (Uh-huh)
Can't stop, can't quit
Gotta, gotta get mine
Get yours

[Verse 2: Da Brat & Jermaine Dupri]
I catch you off guard, keep your dick hard (Uh)
Follow the yellow bitch to the road to riches (What?)
And if the smoke thickens (Uh)
It's the B to B-R, detrimental to your brain
Chokin' off Mary Jane
A-T-Lanta insane
Came and kept it wetter than Niagra (What)
The main dame who maintain to stay platinum, yeah
Stay platinum, come on

[Verse 3: Jagged Edge & Jermaine Dupri]
We talkin', we touchin' you and your body (Right there)
We even talkin' 'bout you and your other guys
I like it when you tell me what you'd do if I was with you
I like it 'cause you have nothin' to hide

[Chorus: Jagged Edge & Sample]
The way that you talk to me
The things that you say to me (What you say, what you say, babe?)
(Make you scream, "Papa," you the best, dada)
You got my body
Girl, have your way with me (Have your way with me, baby)
I'm tellin' you now
There's something about (Ooh, you know there's something about)
(Make you scream, "Papa," you the best, dada)
Girl, I can't live without (Oh, oh, yeah)
The way you talk to me (Yeah)

[Verse 4: Jagged Edge & Jermaine Dupri]
We talkin' 'bout dreams you have about you and I
You tell me things I did to you once I got up inside (Uh, uh)
You make me look forward to the future
Wanna have a wife and kid
'Cause all the time that I been gettin' around
I never felt like this, yeah (No)
I know you know, baby (Haha), how much I love you (How much I love you)
I love you, you love me (Haha), and I know
Baby, I know
Woah-woah-woah (Yeah)
(Come on, come on)
Woah-woah-woah (Uh, uh-uh)
Yeah, when I call your name

[Verse 5: Jermaine Dupri]
It's all about the pu-punani-nani and more money
With me, pink bunny and the G, you just in the DJE era (Uh)
Chromed out carreras
Sex, booze and the non-stop flow with cheddar
Send me some Cristal, sippin' slow
You can send the Mo' back (Uh)
The type that walk up in the club screamin', "Where the hoes at?"
Tracks stay steamin', keepin' floors packed
Diamonds stay gleemin' and you're no match
For me and my faculty
Actually, all y'all whack to me
See we some some true playas with true rank
Don't give a damn what you think
Make a bet and I'll stop your bank, baby
You dress jiggy (Uh-huh), body bomb-diggy (Uh-huh)
Then it's a possiblity that you and I can get busy
What you wanna do? Shit
I got a pocket full of rubbers, and JE do too

[Chorus: Jagged Edge & Sample]
The way that you talk to me (You, me, babe)
The things that you say to me (Tell me how you like me, baby)
(Make you scream, "Papa," you the best, dada)
You got my body
Girl, have your way with me (Say, say, what you want me to do with it? Baby, yeah, baby)
I'm tellin' you now
There's something about
(Make you scream, "Papa," you the best, dada)
Girl, I can't live without (Yeah, yeah)
The way you talk to me (Come on, oh)

[Outro: Sample]
Make you scream, "Papa," you the best, dada
Make you scream, "Papa," you the best, dada
Make you scream, "Papa," you the best, dada
