LL Cool J - Around The Way Girl Lyrics
Official




You got me shook up, shook down, shook out on your lovin'
On your lovin'

I want a girl with extensions in her hair
Bamboo earrings, at least two pair
A Fendi bag and a bad attitude
That's all I need to get me in a good mood
She can walk with a switch and talk with street slang
I love it when a woman ain't scared to do her thing
Standin' at the bus stop, suckin' on a lollipop
When she gets pumpin', it's hard to make the hottie stop
She likes to dance to the rap jam
She's sweet as brown sugar with the candied yams
Honey-coated complexion, using Camay
Let's hear it for the girl, she's from around the way

I need an around the way girl (around the way girl)
That's the one for me (she's the only one for me)
I need that an around the way girl
You got me shook up, shook down, shook out on your lovin'

Silky, milky, her smile is like sunshine
That's why I had to dedicate at least one rhyme
To all the cuties in the neighborhood
'Cause if I didn't tell you, then another brother would
You're sweet like sugar with your gangsta talk
Wanna eat you like a cookie when I see you walk
With your rayon, silk, or maybe even denim
It really doesn't matter as long as your in 'em (in 'em)
You can break hearts and manipulate minds
Or surrender, act tender, be gentle and kind
You always know what to say and do
Cold flip when you think your man is playing you
No cheap or petty, you're ready for loving
You're real independent, so your parents be buggin'
But if you ever need a place to stay
Come around my way

I need an around the way girl (around the way girl)
That's the one for me (she's the only one for me)
I need that an around the way girl
You got me shook up, shook down, shook out on your lovin'

Perm in your hair, or even a curly weave
With your New Edition Bobby Brown button on your sleeve
I tell you come here, you say, "Meet me halfway"
'Cause brothers been poppin' that yang all day
Around the way, you're like neighborhood jewel
All the homeboys sweat ya, so you're crazy cool
Wear your gold in the summer with your biking shorts
While your watchin' all the brothers on the basketball court
Goin' to the movies with your homegirl's crew
While the businessmen in suits be hawkin' you
Baby hair pumpin', lip gloss a-shinin'
I think you're in the mood for whinin' and dinin'
So we can go out and eat somewhere
We got a lot of private jokes to share
Lisa, Angela, Pamela, Renee
I love you, you're from around the way

I need that around the way girl (around the way girl)
That's the one for me (She's all I ever need)
I need that around the way girl (around the way girl)
Fine as can be (She's all I ever need)
I need that around the way girl (around the way girl)
That's the one for me she's the only one)
I need that around the way girl (around the way girl)
Fine as can be

You got me shook up, shook down, shook out on your lovin'
Ya gotta shook up, shook down, shook up
You got me shook up, shook down, shook out on your lovin'
Ya gotta shook up, shook down, shook up
You got me shook up, shook down, shook out on your lovin'
Ya gotta shook up, shook down, shook up
You got me shook up, shook down, shook out on your lovin'
Ya gotta shook up, shook down, shook up
You got me shook up, shook down, shook out on your lovin'
