I was at the mall, sipping on a milkshake Playing the wall, taking a break Admiring the girls with the bamboo earrings Baby hair and bodies built to swing That's when I seen her, her name was Tina Grace and poise, kinda like a ballerina I said, "How you doing? My name's Big L Don't ask me how I'm living, 'cause, yo, I'm living swell" But then again, I'm living kind of foul 'Cause my girl don't know that I'm out on the prowl To make a long story short, I got the digits Called her on my car phone and paid her a visit I was spankin' her and thankin' her, chewin' her and doin' her Laughin' 'cause my girl didn't know that I was screwin' her Laying like a king on sheets of satin That's what time it is, you know what's happenin' She had a big ole booty, I was doing my duty I mean, yo, I admit that my girl's a cutie But Tina was exotic, Earl's my witness With the kind of legs that put stockings out of business When I went home, I kissed my girl on the cheek But in the back of my mind, it was this big-butt freak I sat my girl down, I couldn't hold it in And said to her with a devilish grin Tina got a big ole butt, I know I told you I'd be true But Tina got a big ole butt, so I'm leaving you Tina got a big ole butt, I know I told you I'd be true But Tina got a big ole butt, so I'm leaving you (oh, clearly) I went to the high school about three o'clock To try to catch a cutie riding my jock My homeboy's Jeep, the system blasting Cold 40 Dogs, smiling and laughing Girls all over, the kind I adore I felt like a kid in a candy store That's when I seen her, her name was Brenda She had the kind of booty that I'd always remember I said to my man, "Stop the Jeep" She's only 17, but, yo, don't sleep I kicked the bass like an NFL punter And scoped the booty like a big game hunter I said to the girl, "Yo, you look tired Let's go get some rest, relax by the fire I put the big booty on a bearskin rug" She gave me a kiss, I gave her a hug I said to the girl, "Them young boys ain't nothing You wanna get freaky? Let me kiss your belly button" I circled it and teased it and made her squeal Grabbed a pack of bullets and pulled out the steel When I was through, I wiped the sweat from my eyes Went to the kitchen and got some sweet potato pies Tina busted in my house while I was eating You know what I said? "Too bad you caught me cheating, but-" Brenda got a big ole butt, I know I told you I'd be true But Brenda got a big ole butt, so I'm leaving you Brenda got a big ole butt, I know I told you I'd be true But Brenda got a big ole butt, so I'm leaving you (oh, clearly) I went to Red Lobster for shrimp and steak Around the time when the waitresses are on their lunch break I pulled in the parking lot, parked my car Somebody shouted out, "I don't care who you are" I paid it no attention, I walked inside 'Cause Brian had a nine, and he was chilling in the ride I walked in the place, everybody was lookin' And shrimp and steak wasn't the only thing cookin' I sat down to eat, ordered my food I said to the waitress, "I don't mean to be rude But I'll take you on a platter" She said, "You got a girl?" I said, "It don't matter You look like you're tastier than piping hot pizza What's your name?" She said, "My tag says Lisa" I said, "Okay, you're smart and all that But when you get off work, yo, I'll be back" She looked at me and said, "Make yourself clear L, where we going?" I said, "Right here" She looked kind of puzzled, I said, "You'll see" I pulled up at ten on the D-O-T When she walked out the door, I threw my tongue down her throat Pushed her back inside and pulled off her coat Laid her on the table and placed my order And gave her a tip much bigger than a quarter On and on 'til the break of dawn All over the restaurant, word is bond I heard somebody coughin', I checked my watch I couldn't believe it said nine o'clock I grabbed my pants, put on my Kangol Who did I see? Oh, yo It was Brenda Yo, she worked at Red Lobster, but I didn't remember Lisa got a big ole butt, I know I told you I'd be true But Lisa got a big ole butt, so I'm leaving you (see ya) Lisa got a big ole butt, I know I told you I'd be true But Lisa got a big ole butt, so I'm leaving you (see ya) (oh, clearly)
