Rock The Boat

[Chorus]
Can you work the middle for me?
Can you rock the boat for me?

[Verse 1]
Can we work the middle? Shorty
Baby girl, tell me where you hidin'
I'm lost on the boat, I need guidance
'Cause so many shorties be vibin'
New whip, new Benz
She don't wanna hang with new friends
I hope my message sends
I can pull just on your end
And I know you got me
That's when I'm in trouble
Girl-girl I'm in trouble
I can't be that subtle
I know that you struggle
Just as long as we don't shuffle
And we're both-both so troubled
When we talk we stumble

[Chorus]
Can you work the middle for me?
Can you rock the boat for me?

[Verse 2]
Yeah, girl I can't even lie, sometimes I can't even talk
No matter the risk, no matter the cost
We just gotta stay connected even when we're apart
I know that you be struggling at work with your boss
I know the feeling of having things and being lost
I know the feeling of seeing things and being drawn to it
'Cause girl, I'm drawn to you
Hotline-bling girl, I call for you
Tings ah gwan on road, 'cause I'm all for you

[Bridge]
And no lie, no lie
You remind me of the type I've been waiting for
And no lie, no lie
When I hit you up
You tell me you just wanted more

[Chorus]
Can you work the middle for me?
Can you rock the boat for me?

[Outro: Aaliyah]
…have chemistry like that with someone, there's no, there's no easy to leave you know what I mean
We first meet each other back in um ‘96 we clicked immediately and it's just, it's been like that ever since you know
When you have chemistry like that with someone, there's no, there's no easy to leave…
