“White Dress” is featured on the soundtrack for RZA’s movie, The Man with the Iron Fists. Speaking to MTV about it, he said:
Kanye’s a dope lyricist, but what he did on this particular song it’s like, it ain’t 16 bars, he’s going like how Ghostface goes, it’s like 40 bars. Just going, he’s going, h...
[Chorus]
Just me and you, girl
Woah-oh
Just me and you, girl
Woah-oh
[Verse 1]
Tryin' to sneak upstairs to your apartment
Aren't you a sight for red eyes?
I just flew in and slipped in on your left side
Just a satin gown, you asleep with no make-up
I'm just tryna be inside you 'fore you wake up
[Chorus]
Just me and you, girl
Woah-oh
Just me and you, girl
Woah-oh
[Verse 2]
We had problems but that's all in the past
Everybody got problems, baby, algebra class
I remember I used to do things that'd make you laugh
Like orderin' a girl drink in a masculine glass
You like piña coladas, getting caught in the rain
Or rockin' flannels all summer like Kurt Cobain
Or that Dolce Gabbana with a few gold chains
And you the type of girl that probably deserve a new last name, but
They never let us do our thing
Everybody lying on who I bang
We was on fire but they blew our flame
Ain't no denyin', baby, you have changed
'Cause now your high heels clicking, your lip gloss glisten
Your hips start switching, you're pissed off, tripping
'Cause even when we kissin', baby girl, it feel different
Friends all diss him like, "No, he didn't?
No, he didn't, is you talking 'bout Kitten?
Is that bitch still stripping?
Trying get a pair of Christians?"
I swear to God that they got you going crazy
But you play it off and say, "How's work, baby?" Well
Some of the models is too coked up to walk straight
But seem to still love the man that they all hate
But, babe, I call you back and say, "You say that always"
And kept me on the phone and demanded they all wait
See, she knew about all my lies the whole time
And my credit's so bad, I can't get no one to cosign
I would've thought she would've bust through the door cryin'
But she upped and left a nigga and she ain't give me no sign, now
She back in the club in a tight dress
With dreams of someday wearing a white dress
Seen with some lame, it's a miracle that
She'll talk to a nigga with a ten-year-ago swag
Plus, I don't like none of her girlfriends
Quote unquote, "'Cause her girlfriends got girlfriends"
On the phone, hollin' that "Niggas is whatever"
Let's fly to Euro and make this the best summer ever
Now she headed to Rome, Rome is the home
Rome is where she act like she ain't got no fuckin' phone
I accept that I was wrong, except a nigga grown
So I can't bitch and moan, in a session gettin' stoned
So a nigga had to hop on a plane, a bus and a train
To try to come and talk and explain
Rented the whole bottom floor for a candlelight dinner
Turned the lights out and put my candle right in her
And told her, "Even though I met you in a club in a tight dress
At first sight, I could picture you in a white dress"
Thirty-foot train, diamond from Lorraine
Just to make up for all the years and the pain
Family on both sides, I'm so glad you came
Aunty couldn't make it? Oh, no, that's a shame
Weddin' in June, what could be better?
Let's fly to Euro and make this the best summer ever
Take the very last car of the Eurostar
Tell the conductor, "Just drive so far"
Told some of your friends and they wasn't excited?
Well, we gon' tour the countryside and they won't be invited
We will not be disturbed by the fussin' and fightin'
Tell Peaches light the herb 'cause we just reunited
Let's make a move from these herds, go somewhere private
I'm talkin' just me and you and the plane and the pilot, uh
[Chorus]
Just me and you, girl
Woah-oh
Just me and you, girl
Woah-oh
