J'cenae and Wendell B. - I'll Be Down In A Minute

"Hello?"
"Yeah, is Tom there?"
"Who is this?"
"Tell him it's JJ"
"Who?"
"JJ"
"Well, who you lookin' for?"
"I'm lookin' for Tom"
"Girl, you got me messed up"
"Girl, please"
"But I'ma put him on the phone
'Cause, see, I'm a woman about mine, you heard me?
"Oh, whatever"
"But if he's yours, then come get him"
"Girl, put Tom on the phone"

Shawty's been callin' my phone, playin' with me
Sayin' she's after my man and she gon' get me
I tighten up the scarf on my head, must be dreamin' in bed
Did someone say they'd come and get me?
This chick is playin' with me
Wake up, your girlfriend's on the phone
And she must be lippy 'cause she's just so wrong (so wrong)
Better get your girl, because she messed up (she messed up)
Better get her ass from my door
She better be halfway down the block
By the time I hit the floor

Tell shawty I'll be down in a minute
And then she gon' get it
Everything I got, I'm comin' with it
She better be ready to fight (girlfriend)
Morning, noon into night
See, she's messin' with my man, she gotta understand
You see them Jordans? (I bought 'em)
Them Nikes? (I bought 'em)
I'm just protectin' my investment, that's right
Girl, from that cologne he wears
Got my initials in his hair
From his head to his toes to his underwear
Now, look

Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not his fool (uh-uh)
But you don't know what me and him have been through
See, when I wasn't right (creepin', girl)
Creepin' at night (creepin' at night)
See, I left him alone, girl, I was so wrong
Another man's sidepiece (sidepiece)
He was foolin' me (foolin' me)
But when I finally saw the light, my man was there for me
But now the table's turned (table's turned)
There's fire and it burns
Oh, what a lesson I've learned
Girl, don't play me

Tell shawty I'll be down in a minute
And then she gon' get it (girlfriend)
And everything I got (little sister put her house shoes on)
I'm comin' with it
She better be ready to fight (do you hear me?)
Are you ready tonight?
Ooh-wee, see, I done been through too much with that man
I bought 'em, them Nikes? I bought 'em (you better listen)
I'm just protectin' my investment, that's right
From that smell good cologne he wears
Keep my initials in his hair
From his head to his toes to his underwear
Oh

Tell shawty I'll be down in a minute (I'll be down)
And then she gon' get it (I'll be down in a minute))
And everything I got (ooh)
I'm comin' with it
She better be ready to fight (I'm ready, babe)
Morning, noon into night
See love'll put you through some strange things sometimes
You see them Jordans? (I bought 'em)
Them Nikes? (I bought 'em)
I'm just protectin' my investment, that's right
Right down to the clothes he wears
Keep my initials in his hair (oh nah, she was a long time ago)
From his head to his toes to his underwear

Ayy, look shawty
You must be trippin', it's the middle of the night
See, I was deep in my sleep
When baby reached and turned on the light
Told you to never hit me, ain't no comin' up to my home
You startin' to catch too many feelings
Girl, you know you wrong
Yeah, girl, we had a few good times (good times)
We done kicked it for a night
But I told you I had my baby, no catchin' feelings in sight
Now here you comin' kn-knockin' on my door
Screamin' you want more
But with her, you got the right one, baby
You better not make her give

Tell shawty I'll be down in a minute (I'll be down in a minute)
And then she gon' get it
And everything I got (and I'm comin')
I'm comin' with it (with everything I got)
She better be ready to fight
Morning, noon into night
I'ma knock you down
Ain't gon' be trippin' with you 'bout my man
I bought 'em, them Nikes? I bought 'em (oh, I'm just protectin')
I'm just protectin' my investment, that's right
All of the years that I've been with that man
Ladies, out there, do you feel me?
From his head to his toes to his underwear

Now, look, girl
I think you all are gathered here thinkin' (get it, I'm comin' with it)
And get on home (morning noon into night)
'Cause this man right here
Ha, he already at home (I bought 'em, them Nikes? I bought em)
See I don't wanna have to
Drag a sister out here
Ha, but sometimes a girl gotta do
What a girl's gotta do
Ain't gon' be trippin' with you 'bout my man
Don't make me, don't make me
Whatever you and him done
It's over, it's over, you done had your fun
You done had your fun
So please don't make me get up
Don't make me get out this bed, oh
Ooh, oh, oh, ah, yeah, oh

I'm goin' back to bed
Come on, baby
