You're my darlin', darlin', baby
You're my darlin', darlin', love
You're my darlin', darlin', baby
I said you're everything I ever hoped for
In a woman
And as long as I may live
Ooh, you're...
Yo, I ain't a player, I just crush a lot
Jump on top of the rock and work them hips until I bust a shot
It doesn't stop, I'm only beginnin', I'm callin' your women
While you're home all alone, I'm goin' up in 'em
Sendin' 'em back to you mad at you
Don't catch a player hater's attitude
I'm just showin' you how this rapper do
Capital Punishment when I'm up in it, crushin' it
Bustin' it out, nice blouse, let me unbutton it
You're bumpin' with King Papi Chulo with Akinkulo
Pop your mulos out the socket tryin' to rock with the sumo
You know my rise is high, word, I be drillin' 'em
Chickens be tryin' to ride, but the curb be killin' 'em
Fillin' 'em with the gas, my G's premium unleaded
Come get it, first work the tongue, then let the Pun hit it
Split it in half (Watch the gas), baby, take a bath
Be good, I might put away the wood and give you the mustache
(You're my darlin', darlin', baby)
I ain't a player, I just crush a lot
(You're my darlin', darlin', love)
I'm not a player, I just crush a lot
(You're my darlin', darlin', baby)
I ain't a player, I just crush a lot
(You're my darlin', darlin', love)
I'm not a player, I just crush a lot
Yo, I bring a stranger to my torture chamber
Split a dutch of Garcia Vega, spark her brains up
Make her do the Macarena
I bring the pain like Method when I flex and flip the coochie
Puerto Rican to the core, when no boricua speak the booty
'Scuse me for bein' blunt, but I've been G'in' stunts
Since pimps was pushin' pink Caddies with the fish tank pumps
Bumpin' and grindin', simultaneously windin'
Climbin' up the wall, screamin', "Big Dog, you wasn't lyin'"
I'm a diamond in the rough (Uh), crush it in my cabin
You ain't fit for the job if you can't fit the Magnum
Yo, sisters already know the repertoire
Step in my car and start the ménage à trois like Escobar
By far, I'm the best at all sex positions
Forget the kissin', I'm skippin' the tongue, twistin' TS tradition
(You're my darlin', darlin', baby)
I ain't a player, I just crush a lot
(You're my darlin', darlin', love)
I'm not a player, I just crush a lot
(You're my darlin', darlin', baby)
I ain't a player, I just crush a lot
(You're my darlin', darlin', love)
Uh, I'm not a player, I just crush a lot
Some chick in back of me poured me a daiquiri
Told me meet her in back of Zachary's '
Cause she heard I was packin' meat
I bagged the freak and hit the telly, got the Phillies
Lifted the belly and... like Akinyele
Far from ugly, but they used to say I'm too chubby
But since the money, the honeys got nothin' but love for me
So rub my tummy and make a wish, I'll make you rich
Take a kiss to the flicks, come back and fix your favorite dish
You crazy, miss? I ain't with that, I'ma hit that
Split back to the shack where my other chicks at
Now can you dig that? I'm the mack, doin' my thing
Pullin' your strings, makin' you feel like you in a dream
It's the king of the hip-hop quotables, givin' you multiples
Just by the tone of my voice in the vocal booth
I notice you doin' your thing with your crew
Is it a'ight if I come down there and sing to you?
(You're my darlin', darlin', baby)
I ain't a player, I just crush a lot
(You're my darlin', darlin', love)
I'm not a player, I just crush a lot
(You're my darlin', darlin', baby)
I ain't a player, I just crush a lot
(You're my darlin', darlin', love)
I'm no player, I just crush a lot
(You're my darlin', darlin', baby)
(You're my darlin', darlin', love)
(Baby, you're my darlin', darlin', love)
