Verse 1: afrika Girl, ooh you look fine I wanna do you I get dizzy, you keep my body busy Every time I get near you, I want you actin' like a grizzly bear You got long hair You play hard to get, but afrika does not care Because there's plenty of fishes out there in the sea And I can find another if you don't wanna be with me You said you have a boyfriend, but like you said, he is a boy I am the real thing and he is just a toy Something that you pick, play with and put down But girl, you can have me all year round Don't wanna get you upset, I just want to get to you Cuddle up close and let you know I wanna do you Chorus: afrika I'm gonna do you, I'm gonna do you I'm gonna do you, woh woh ooh woh Verse 2: mike g Now my name is mike g, no need to act stupid You fell in love, you got shot by cupid You haunt me and taunt me because my name is worth money I give you some love and now you seem to act funny Was it you got blessed or for one simple kiss That you could not resist when I threw you the gift?
