This jam is dedicated
To that woman that knows what she wants
And just how to get it, word up
She knows what she wants
She knows what she wants
Yo, she knows what she wants
She knows what she wants
And just how to get it
She knows what she wants
Yeah, she knows what she wants
She knows what she wants
She knows what she wants
And just how to get it
She knows what she wants, she's bold so she flaunts
Her hourglass jewels to mad clientele
Rejected, oh well, she ain't goin' to no hotel
Not the frantic freak type, but if you speak right
You get to take her out and dig her out on a weeknight
Weekends, she wants to spend your ends
Her shopping spree is colossal, attitude semi-hostile
Mack diva senorita, no reefer, no pizza
Just shrimp and lobsters, champagne and mobsters
Suckin' up the cream like a vac to a carpet
Strictly black market, now you're her next target
Watch out 'cause, yo, she knows what she wants
She knows what she wants
She knows what she wants
Yo, she knows what she wants
She knows what she wants
And just how to get it
Spotted her in the club with her crew nearby
Her looks are a lullaby, to passers by, she's too fly
Never gun shy, hair is blown dry
She craves a wise guy to help her gain amplify
So when you say, "Yo baby", she ain't gotta say hi to ya
'Cause prior to this, he put rocks on her neck and wrist
Plus a fat joint on her finger
You best to have a batch of scratch and treats to bring her
And if you happen to luck up and get in
You'll find yourself another jealous trick-ass boyfriend
And furthermore the mink she's donning is stunning
Blinding your senses done, never put the two before the one, son
It's the lesson well learned
It's going down
It's the lesson well learned
It's going down
She knows what she wants
She knows what she wants
Yo, she knows what she wants
Yeah, she knows what she wants
And just how to get it
Never fall victim to a chicken you was stickin'
Even if you think the poonani might be finger-licking
Never fall victim to a wicked woman's ways
Why son? She's trying to get paid, check it
One, she said she wanted to give me a son
Two, she said she didn't like my crew
Three, she never ever cooked for me
Four, she was my Cheri Amore, yeah right
It was all hype, I needed more insight
In retrospect, I know I slept from the first night
She did a split and that was it
Gave up my pimp license and flipped my whole frigging script
But now I'm back like the Isley's moving wisely
Sizing up the situation, keeping honies waiting
'Cause I got more to do than to be sucked dry
This tough guy will get by, while the chickens wonder why
I don't be callin' 'cause it's like Ex to Next kid
I know what I want, and just how to get it
Like her, no disrespect Miss
