Straight Up

[Intro: Jermaine Dupri]

Yeah, oh

You know what it is

When your head go back and forth

So So Def, ha-ha

Chanté, 2K

Baby, come on, come on, come on

[Verse 1]

Straight up, I can love you forever, yo

'Cause you're the kind of guy I could settle for

I'm not the type to love you and let you go

Let me know, it's now or it's never, yo

'Cause I know them other girls try to do you in

But I'm not the average girl you'll be fooling with

'Cause those other females are just counterfeit

But everything over here's legit, ooh

[Pre-Chorus]

It's like this, like this, and like that, baby

Put the other girls way to the back, baby

So you know I'm not just talking that stuff, baby

Call me up and let me know what's up, baby

(What's up?)

[Chorus]

Here's the number to my cell

Or hit me on the hip

Here's the number to the crib where I really live

(Straight up) I'm not thinking 'bout them other chicks

(Straight up) They ain't even coming close to this

Here's the number to my job

Or call me in the whip

Now how many chicks you know coming with this?

(Straight up) 'Cause I'm trying to put you on to this

(Straight up) And I'm not just talking it, talking it

[Verse 2]

So tell me, baby, are you spoken for? (Spoken for)

'Cause I don't see a ring on your finger, boy (Finger, boy)

Excuse me if I'm bold with my pushing up

But I'm not looking for a hit and run

Don't you tell me how those other girls used to be

Just think about you getting used to me

I'ma show you everything you trying to see

I'ma put you right where you need to be (Need to be)

[Pre-Chorus]

It's like this, like this, and like that, baby

Put the other girls way to the back, baby

So you know I'm not just talking that stuff, baby

Call me up and let me know what's up, baby

(What's up?)

[Chorus]

Here's the number to my cell

Or hit me on the hip

Here's the number to the crib where I really live

(Straight up) I'm not thinking 'bout them other chicks

(Straight up) They ain't even coming close to this

Here's the number to my job

Or call me in the whip

Now how many chicks you know coming with this?

(Straight up) 'Cause I'm trying to put you on to this

(Straight up) And I'm not just talking it, not talking it

[Bridge]

A lot of girls won't do the things I do (Do)

A lot of girls won't say the things I say (Say)

Know that all of this is true (True)

Talking 'bout me loving you

(Please believe it) Boy, I love you

Coming straight up asking me (Oh-oh, oh)

Letting you know what I'm about (Ooh-oh, yeah)

With a game that's sweeter than can be

So, baby, won't you check me out?

[Break: Jermaine Dupri]

Y'all know what it is

When your head go back and forth

Y'all know what it is

When your head go back and forth

(Straight up, straight up, what's up?)

[Chorus]

Here's the number to my cell

Or hit me on the hip

Here's the number to the crib where I really live

(Straight up) I'm not thinking 'bout them other chicks

(Straight up) They ain't even coming close to this

Here's the number to my job

Or call me in the whip

Now how many chicks you know coming with this?

(Straight up) 'Cause I'm trying to put you on to this

(Straight up) And I'm not just talking it, talking it

Here's the number to my cell

Or hit me on the hip

Here's the number to the crib where I really live

(Straight up) I'm not thinking 'bout them other chicks

(Straight up) They ain't even coming close to this

Here's the number to my job

Or call me in the whip

Now how many chicks you know coming with this?

(Straight up) 'Cause I'm trying to put you on to this

(Straight up) And I'm not just talking it, talking it

Here's the number to my cell

Or hit me on the hip

Here's the number to the crib where I really live

(Straight up) I'm not thinking 'bout them other chicks

(Straight up) They ain't even coming close to this

Here's the number to my job

Or call me in the whip

Now how many chicks you know coming with this?

(Straight up) 'Cause I'm trying to put you on to this

(Straight up) And I'm not just talking it
