[Intro]
(Ooh ooh) Ooh (Ooh ooh)
Listen, baby

[Verse 1]
I don't see no rings on these fingers
So I'm not gonna deal with your drama
Long as you're with me, you got to show respect
Get out and get a job and bring home a check
See, I will love you 'til the day I die
But never love you enough that I'ma live a lie
So three snaps up, three snaps down
Wanna be treated like a king, you better wear the crown

[Chorus]
Wanna play the boss? (Guess what)
You got to pay the cost (Sho'nuff)
You wanna wear the pants (Guess what)
You got to be a man (Sho'nuff)
Hangin' out with your friends (Guess what)
Then watch what time you come in (Sho'nuff)
Don't wanna pay the bills? (Guess what)
I know somebody who will (Sho'nuff)

[Verse 2]
Listen, now we been shackin' up since '93
I ain't gettin' no younger, I need some guarantees
The best years of my life is what I've given you
Argue, fuss and fight, seems like all we do
And us going to church always in your plans
But come sunday morning, you play sick in bed
See, I will love you 'til the day I die
But never love you enough to live a lie
So three snaps up, three snaps down
Wanna be treated like a king, you gotta wear the crown
[Chorus]
Wanna play the boss? (Guess what)
You've got to pay the cost, baby (Sho'nuff)
You wanna wear the pants (Guess what)
You got to be a man (Sho'nuff)
Hangin' out with your friends? (Guess what)
Better watch what time you come in (Sho'nuff)
Don't wanna pay the bills? (Guess what)
I know somebody who will (Sho'nuff)

[Bridge]
(Think we've got some issues at hand)
We need to address 'em, baby, yeah
(I need you to understand)
That I've got needs, too
(Over and over again)
Yeah, I put up with your childish games
(I just can't be raising no man)
Yeah, wanna be treated like a king, then wear the crown

[Chorus]
Wanna play the boss? (Guess what)
You got to pay the cost (Sho'nuff)
You wanna wear the pants, yeah (Guess what)
You got to be a man (Sho'nuff)
Hangin' out with your friends (Guess what)
Watch what time you come in (Sho'nuff)
Don't wanna pay the bills? (Guess what)
I know somebody who will (Sho'nuff)
[Outro]
Listen, you hurt me for the last time (Guess what)
It's time to tell you what's on my mind (Sho'nuff)
Always rippin', runnin' these streets (Guess what)
Well, I found someone that's gonna take care of me (Sho'nuff)
Nothin' but lies comin' out your mouth (Guess what)
Might as well go on back to your mama's house (Sho'nuff)
'Cause you've been messin' around, yeah (Guess what)
And now it's time to put you down (Sho'nuff)
Been late comin' to the door (Guess what)
I'm not gon' take your sh— no more (Sho'nuff)
Ladies, ladies, ladies (Guess what)
Tell me, can you feel me? (Sho'nuff)
Ladies, ladies, ladies (Guess what)
Tell me, can you feel me? (Sho'nuff)
Ladies, ladies, ladies (Guess what)
Tell me, can you feel me? (Sho'nuff)
Ladies, ladies, ladies (Guess what)
Tell me, can you feel me? (Sho'nuff)
