[Master G]

I am the king of the rappin thing

But love, is really my game

And when it comes, to gettin the finest chicks

I put all the other rappers to shame

The ladies scream when I'm on the scene

They love my 280-Z

And when the party's over they stand in line

to go home with the Master G, ha ha hahhh



This is for the lover in you

The lover in you, I know she's in there somewhere

This is for the lover in you

Ah for the lover in you...

Whoaaaah honey, can't you see, yeah

It's the lover, in me

Who wants to make love...

... to the lover in you

The lover in you

To the lover in you



Don't be misled, by what I said

There's one thing beyond a doubt

Inside every rapper there's a lover

who's tryin, to get out

So let's make a start, unlock your heart

This is, the place to be

And as we're movin, to the music groovin

You'll bring out, the lover in me... sing it gang



This is for the lover in you, the lover in you

I know she's in there somewhere
