[Verse 1]
Seven women in the palm of his hand, Willie D
Got a woman for every man, Willie D
It's magic, the way he runs his game (ooh, Willie)
Never treating two girls the same (uh-huh, Willie)
Selling fantasies, buy what you please
It's no different from any other industry
[Chorus]
Willie, oh, Willie D (Willie D)
Ooh... Willie, oh, Willie D (Willie D)
[Verse 2]
He's got to try to be Number 1 (yeah, Willie)
No time for kindness till his dream is done
He's commercialized, and he's selling lies
Making so much money, he can't be satisfied
[Chorus]
Willie, oh, Willie D (Willie D)
Ooh... Willie, oh, Willie D (Willie D)
(Willie) whoa, Willie... (Willie) Willie D, yeah
(Willie) whoa, Willie... (Willie)
[Verse 3]
Some say his business is cold and a crime, Willie D (Willie D)
He's operating to cap your mind, Willie D (Willie D)
Silk and satin, if you pay his price (ooh, Willie)
He'll set you up in his little paradise (uh-huh, Willie)
How can you lose, the streets are so alive
So much sadness, he's got to survive
[Outro]
Willie, oh, Willie D (Willie D)
Oh, Willie... Willie, oh, Willie D (Willie D)
(Willie) whoa, Willie... (Willie) Willie D, yeah
(Willie) whoa, Willie... (Willie) Willie D, yeah
(Willie) whoa, Willie... (Willie) Willie D, yeah
(Willie) whoa, Willie... (Willie) Willie D
