[Intro]
Yeah
Yeah, oooh
ReRe and Kenny sittin' in a tree
K-I-S-S-I-N-G
Ah, uh-huh, uh-huh, baby
Ah, uh-huh, uh-huh, baby
Ah, uh-huh, uh-huh, baby, woo
I want a, I want a
I want a, I want a
I need a, I need a
I need a, I need a (I need him)
A lover, a lover
A lover, a lover (I love him)
A lover, a lover
A lover, a loverboy
[Verse 1: Ludacris & Shawnna]
Man, is it the glitter on her breasts or the gloss of the lips?
Hickeys on the chest or the toss of the hips?
I'm lost in the mix, so I floss in the seas
Turnin' out the hits, so I'm exhausted as shit
Now baby it's the mo' paper, dough chaser
Now get it right, would ya, heartbreaker?
I, I keep it tight but I'm no faker
You can laugh now but ya cry later
I think I like you in ya freak clothes
Freak thongs in my specialized peep shows
And then I make you touch ya knees to ya elbows
Toes curl from Peachtree to Melrose, the whole world
It's cool, 'cause see I like it when we smoked out
All choked out with some freak shit (No doubt)
You kinda got me like a feen when you call out
Now get your boys for my girls, we can roll out
[Verse 2: Mariah Carey]
I got myself a lover who knows what I like
When he invites me over I come every time
And when my sugar daddy takes me for a ride
Whatever way we go it's delirium time
[Pre-Chorus: Mariah Carey]
He's all mine and his lovin' gets me high
Like a taste of ecstasy
All I need is him to be my loverboy
[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
Loverboy, c'mon and love me
Give me more, touch me and touch me
I enjoy the way you rock me all night long (Baby, all night long)
Loverboy, c'mon and take me (Loverboy, come take me)
Only you know how to make me
Shudder with anticipation all night long
[Verse 3: Mariah Carey]
I got myself a lover and he's so sublime
It's quite a bit of heaven to feel him inside
'Cause when my sugar daddy takes me for a ride
Whatever way we go it's delirium time
[Pre-Chorus: Mariah Carey]
I get weak when his candy kisses sweetly
Caress my whole body
All I need is him to be my loverboy
[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
Loverboy, c'mon and love me
Give me more, touch me and touch me
I enjoy the way you rock me all night long (I enjoy the way you rock me)
Loverboy, c'mon and take me (Come on and take me)
Only you know how to make me
Shudder with anticipation all night long (Oh, all night long)
[Verse 4: Twenty II & Da Brat]
Come on, yeah
Pardon me, you're kinda innocent
A vision of love
You adore me, even though my image is thug
What I see in you is for my eyes only to see
I bring out the freak in you up and down on me
I'm your lovergirl, me your loverboy
And when we home alone, become each other's toys
Making noise, we can't avoid
The way I throw that
Cat pop, backdrop, stopwatch
Brat-tat, get ya more rock harder
All of the things you wanna do to me, you oughta
We can get obscene, my parina and your ding-a-ling mingle
Bother me not, when the sensation come out
Because I'll make you scream
Uh-huh uh-huh baby
Feel me, when I pump-pu-pump, lady
Remind me we can be close like family
You're so sweet, you taste like all types of candy
From Starburst to jellybeans
Banana split my dairy queen
Butterfinger my tangerines
Chickens only taste my loverboy in they dreams
Here, all my ladies let me hear you scream
[Bridge: Da Brat & (Mariah Carey)]
Hate on me much as you want to
You can't do what the fuck I do
Bitches be emulatin' me daily (Daily)
Hate on me much as you want to
You can't be who the fuck I be
Bitches be imitatin' me, baby (Loverboy)
[Chorus: Mariah Carey]
Loverboy, c'mon and love me
Give me more, touch me and touch me (Give it to me)
I enjoy the way you rock me all night long (All night long)
Loverboy, c'mon and take me
Only you know how to make me (I enjoy)
Shudder with anticipation all night long (Loverboy)
Loverboy, c'mon and love me
Give me more, touch me and touch me (I-I enjoy)
I enjoy the way you rock me all night long (This stuff is starting now)
Loverboy, c'mon and take me
Only you know how to make me
Shudder with anticipation all night long
Loverboy, c'mon and love me
Give me more, touch me and touch me
I enjoy the way you rock me
