DOUBLE X - Not Gonna Be Able to Do It lyrics

rate me

[VERSE 1: Sugar Ray]

Nah baby, I'm not gonna be able to do it

I tried to take you serious before, and you blew it

You figured you was slick, dissin me for the next man

But when you heard he had a wife, it ruined your plans

Now you wanna come back and act like it's all that

But I ain't tryin to hear it, cause you sound real wack

You got it over the first time, but that was the last time

I'll never make the same mistake again in a lifetime

You hooker, no way, no how, you're history

So let's keep it real, cause this ain't no mystery

You had it like a queen, livin lovely and lost me

Your props are at all-time low and you crossed me

I used to treat you good, take you shoppin and feed ya

But now I'm doin fine, and girlfriend, I don't need ya

For you to even ask me that, you must be stupid

Nah, baby, I'm not gonna be able to do it

(Can you do it?)

I'm not gonna be able to do it [x8]

[VERSE 2: Sugar Ray]

I'm on a mission, and I need me a new girl

My last girl fronted fakin moves with Earl

But that was in the past, finsihed, over, and done with

Besides, I know this hottie, and she's on my tip

She told me I could call her when I wanted to check her

And all I had to do to knock her down was respect her

To think about it, gee, that would be cool

To have a girl that's independent, with a job and school

So we took it slow, then we started to grow

Without a worry in the world, goin right with the flow

Until she cracked my head when she asked me to marry her

And move into a crib in some suburbian area

I knew that this was just too good to be true

And what you're askin me to do, girl, I cannot do

You told me, "No committments", and you best stick to it

Oh baby, I'm not gonna be able to do it

[CHORUS]

[VERSE 3: Sugar Ray]

Now I'm makin money, and it's good to be single

To mingle with the ladies while their earrings jingle

And that's the way it is, cause that's the way that I want it

When I see a pretty mommy lookin good, I'm on it

Checkin out her profile to see if she got style

Cause if she ain't a 10, she ain't worth my while

I'm all about stickin and movin with the quickness

Forget the foreplay, and let's get down to business

(Yeah, is it good? Is it good, baby?) Damn, my jim hat broke!

But still I kept strokin till her boots were smokin

And left her on the bed with her legs wide open

Tryin to kick it to me like she was my girl

But yo, I had to tell her, ain't no way in the world

Maybe it's the way I hit that thing that souped it

But no, I'm not gonna be able to do it

[CHORUS]

(Can you do it?)
