Ghetto baby, lady
Lady
So tell me what's up with y'all
Can you keep it real?
Let me tell you what I feel
Man, let me set your mind at ease
I'm in need of something
That I lost along the way
You know that money's cool
But it makes my world so strange
Now I got ladies talking to me
But they ain't got shit to say
It's like I've come this far
Just to miss simpler days
I need to feel her tonight
Deeper love with honesty
I've seen a million girls
But there's just one kind for me
A ghetto girl, living in a ghetto world
I like her 'cause she keeps it real
She lets me know just how she feels
A ghetto girl, living in a ghetto world
She's the only one I need
She's the only one for me
She won't never leave me guessing
Always let me know the deal
You know that ghetto love
Is always on the real
She got inner city struggles
And her blood runs deep in me
So when we make love
We feel mad history
Well, I'm not trying to put nobody down
In this superficial world
But if you need deeper love
You better find you a ghetto girl
A ghetto girl, living in a ghetto world
I like her 'cause she keeps it real
She lets me know just how she feels
A ghetto girl, living in a ghetto world
She's the only one I need
She's the only one for me
Girl, if they tried
They would see you like I do
Hold your head up high
There's no one above you
With you by my side, girl
There's nothing that I can't do
I've been around the world enough for me to see
Boy, you best believe, it's going to be ghetto girls for me
So tell me what's up with y'all
Can you keep it real?
Let me tell you what I feel
Man, let me set your mind at ease
A ghetto girl, living in a ghetto world
I like her 'cause she keeps it real
She lets me know just how she feels
A ghetto girl, living in a ghetto world
She's the only one I need
She's the only one for me
A ghetto girl, living in a ghetto world
I like her 'cause she keeps it real
She lets me know just how she feels
A ghetto girl, living in a ghetto world
She's the only one I need
She's the only one for me
