[Intro]
Won't you come with me to Chocolate City
Chocolate City, Chocolate City
[Verse 1]
In the city of L.A
There's a place where the player plays
Chocolate City
Every mack and player knows
That's where all the honeys go
Chocolate City
Ooh, you can see who you wanna see
And you can be with who you wanna be
At Chocolate City, ooh, Chocolate City, yeah
[Chorus]
Won't you come with me to Chocolate City
You can find romance at Chocolate City
Chocolate City
[Verse 2]
As the player plays his game
Mackin' honeys all the same
At Chocolate City (Ooh, Chocolate City)
All the fellas try to play it cool
But the player makes the rules
At Chocolate city (Oh, oh)
He's got all the honeys waitin' in line
For him to make up his mind
(Oh, oh, Chocolate City)
[Chorus]
You can come and dance at Chocolate City
You can find romance at Chocolate City
Chocolate City
[Bridge]
Here we go
Here we go again
Now you don't try to tell me that a "Girl is just a friend"
But I'm no ho (But I know)
But I know again (I know again)
Boy, your lies this time
Will never get you into my heart
(Never get you into my heart)
Or my mind
(Never get you into my mind)
Gonna take my time
True love I'm gonna find
Chocolate City, Chocolate City
Chocolate City, Chocolate City
[Chorus]
Won't you come with me to Chocolate City
[Outro]
Yes, it's on, baby, yes it's on, mama
At Chocolate City
Yes, it's on, baby, yes it's on, mama
At Chocolate City
Shake it, baby, shake, shake it, baby
Yes, it's on, baby, yes it's on, mama
At Chocolate City
Shake it, baby, shake, shake it, mama
Yes, it's on, baby, yes it's on, mama
At Chocolate City, at Chocolate City
