VERSE 1:

My home since knee high

We came up on the south side

Where you had to beat the street lights home

We got into some street fights

But the next day we be right back get it all

Wherever there was me, there was you

And we were like crew

Straight from junior high school

Then you messed it all up

Started pushing up

Kissed me on the cheek

And I fell in love



Shorty's a little taller now

Into big things, he's a baller now

His heart never changed

I can see he's still down

I can't forget him (No no no no)

More than his voice is changing now

All that I see is rearranging now (Now)

It just ain't the same

Catchin feelings now

I should tell him (Yea)



CHORUS:

You knew you were the boy next door (Next door)

Don't want to be my homeboy no more

Saw something that I never saw before

I think he wants to be my baby, baby

Been thinkin bout him all my life (My life)

Now I see him in a whole new light

Something about it feels so right (That's why)

I think he wants to be my baby, baby



VERSE 2:

Every night when we get home

Undercover talking on the phone

Here comes my mother

It's way too late

Might get in trouble

My heart can't wait (So much to take)

Writing till my hand cramps up

4 pages saying I'm in love (I got a crush)

Can't get you off my mind (Can you pick me up baby)

I'm sure I'll be fine when I look into your eyes



Shorty's a little taller now

Into big things, he's a baller now

His heart never changed

I can see he's still down

I can't forget him

More than his voice is changing now

All that I see is rearranging now

It just ain't the same

Catchin feelings now

I should tell him (Gotta tell him that I love him)



CHORUS



BRIDGE:

Chocolate covered candy kisses

They keep me reminiscing

All I want is what your giving

Nothing like your affection

So in love and you're the reason

There's no more lonely season

Make me love you, drive me crazy

Think I wanna be your lady

(Repeat)



Oh-we-oh

Oh oh oh (Don't wanna be my homeboy no more)

Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh

Oh oh oh

Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh

Oh oh oh

Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh (Why why why why why)

Now homeboy wants to be my baby, be my baby, be my baby

Oh-we-oh

Oh oh oh (He don't wanna be my homeboy no more)

Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh

Oh oh oh

Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh (No more)

Oh oh oh

Oh-we-oh-we-oh-we-oh (Said he)

Now homeboy wants to be my baby, be my baby, be my baby

(Wants to be my baby now, now, now now now)
