Aaliyah - Are You That Somebody?

(Uh) Dirty South (uh-huh)
Can y'all really feel me? (Feel this)
East Coast, feel me (feel this)
West Coast, feel me (say what?)
Dirty South, uh (here we go)
Can y'all really feel me? (Baby girl)
East Coast, feel me (uh-huh)
West Coast, feel me (can you feel this?)
Dirty South (dirty, dirty)
Can y'all really feel me? (Feel it)
East Coast, feel me (say what?)
West Coast, feel me (what?)
Dirty South (d-d-dirty, dirty)
Can y'all really feel me? (I can make you feel it)
East Coast, feel me (uh)
West Coast, feel me (woo)

Boy, I've been watching you like the hawk in the sky
That fly but you were my prey (my prey)
Boy, I promise you if we keep bumpin' heads
I know that one of these days (days)
We gon' hook it up, probably talk on the phone
But see, I don't know if that's good
I've been holdin' back this secret from you
I probably shouldn't tell it, but

If I, if I let you know
You can't tell nobody
I'm talkin' 'bout nobody
Are you responsible?
Boy, I gotta watch my back
'Cause I'm not just anybody
Is it my go? Is it your go?
Sometimes I'm goody-goody
Right now I'm naughty-naughty
Say yes or say no
'Cause I really need somebody
Tell me you're that somebody

Boy, won't you pick me up at the park right now?
Up the block, while everyone's sleep (sleep, sleep)
I'll be waiting there with my trench, my locs, my hat
Just so I'm lowkey
If you tell the world (don't speak, you know that would be weak)
Oh boy, see I'm trusting you with my heart, my soul
I probably shouldn't let you but

If I, if I let this go
You can't tell nobody
I'm talkin' 'bout nobody
I hope you're responsible?
Boy, I gotta watch my back
'Cause I'm not just anybody
Is it my go? Is it your go?
Sometimes I'm goody-goody
Right now I'm naughty-naughty
Say yes or say no
'Cause I really need somebody (uh)
Tell me you're that somebody (uh)

Baby girl (uh-huh), I'm the man from the big VA (what?)
Won't you come play round my way (uh-huh)
And listen to what I gotta say? (Uh-huh)
Timbaland (what?), Don't you know I am the man? (Uh-huh)
Rock shows here to Japan (what?)
Have people shaking-shaking my hand (what?)
Baby girl (uh-uh), better known as Aaliyah (Aaliyah)
Give me goosebumps and high fevers (high fevers)
Make the playa haters believers (believers)
Don't you know?
Gotta tell somebody, (why?)

'Cause I really need somebody (uh)
Tell me you're that somebody (say what?)

If I let this go
You can't tell nobody
I'm talkin' 'bout nobody
Are you responsible?
Boy, I gotta watch my back
'Cause I'm not just anybody
Is it my go? Is it your go?
Sometimes I'm goody-goody
Right now I'm naughty-naughty
Say yes or say no
'Cause I really need somebody
Tell me you're that somebody

You can't tell nobody
I'm talkin' 'bout nobody
I hope you're responsible, yeah
Boy, I gotta watch my back
'Cause I'm not just anybody
Is it my go? Is it your go?
Sometimes I'm goody-goody
Right now I'm naughty-naughty
Say yes or say no
'Cause I really need somebody
Tell me you're that somebody

Is it my go? Is it your go?
Sometimes I'm goody-goody
But right now I'm naughty-naughty
'Cause I really need somebody
Tell me you're that somebody

You can't tell nobody
I'm talkin' 'bout nobody
Boy, I gotta watch my back
'Cause I'm not just anybody
