"Hit Me Where I Live"

"Hit Me Where I Live"


On the Venus rocks
Yeah, huh
Just me, the master
And my box
Blues and sounds
Decimals high
I fly above this hood
That wears me

Venus, Harlem baby
So you could shake it
So you could shake it

I know a guy his name is Doug
He plays the bottom
Cuts the rug
I love to hug that jitterbug

He swam around in circles till
He found the inside of my web
And now no secret's left to tell

He said James
What the people say
Penny for your thoughts
She came from Velo
That's below the farm

She drive across town
And she'd teach me how to give
She be in deep places
And it hit me where I live

Hit me where I live
I tell ya somethin'
That I love my rhythm
Mixed up with my blues

Hit me where I live
I'm tryin' to tell ya
That we're joined here at the hip and side
Like glue
Ooh

Chocolate sister, name is mick
So artistic with her tricks
She holds my notes
Sings all my licks

Movies, yardbird
We be fed
Collard greens and sweet cornbread
Let's hide the brooms under the bed

He said James
What the people say
Penny for your thoughts
That's Brooklyn bubblegum
Hey bring the sauce

He came from chi town
And he mixed my Shhh real good
He be in deep places
And it hit me where it should

Hit me where I live
I tell ya somethin'
That I love my rhythm
Mixed up with my blues

Hit me where I live
I'm tryin' to tell ya
That we're joined here at the hip and side
Like glue

Take me to the bridge (James)
It's just over the ridge
If you don't ain't that a bitch
Cause I need to scratch this itch
Now you choked up on this crunk
I ain't never been no punk
Just like two skunks in a trunk
Gonna drive you off into some funk

Yeah
I'm sendin' this one out to chocolate city
And all it's vanilla suburbs
We do be workin' music all night long
We do be workin'
We do be workin' music all night long
So you can shake it

Hit me where I live
I'll tell you su'in
That I love my rhythm
Mixed up with my blues

Hit me where I live
I'm trying to tell you
That we're joined here at the hip
And side like glue

James what the people say
Penny for your thoughts
I be from Venus that's down by the rocks
I been around the way
A legend in my hood
I been in deep places
And I know that it's all good

We do be workin' music all night long
We do be workin'
We do be workin' music all night long
So you can shake it

Yo Mick, remember that time
We went to see tower of power
You had on that three piece suit
And a sprinkler's
Runnin' across your face
Girl, I loved you then
I love ya now
Big ups to you
You'll always be my boo
Flyest afro on the westside

"How Can You Resist It"

"How Can You Resist It"


He had brunet hair with blond streaks
A different kind of fellow
Sitting on the road in New Orleans

He ate fillet gumbo, I think I ordered steak
I looked into his eyes and said
For Heaven's sake, listen to me
I got you need

I don't know what to do anymore
I've shown him all of my love and more

And I said stay by my side
Got your ticket to ride
And he blushed at my verbal logistics
And he shied but he came
As he asked me my name
And I said I am love
And how can you resist it

Poetry in motion but it don't pay no dues
And me, I'm always playing my rhythm and blues
Sitting on the road, Bourbon Street

I got country cousins they got a steely knife
But he doesn't want to settle down
For the rest of his life
So I'll just keep it cutting

I don't know what to do anymore
I've shown him all of my love and more

And I said stay by my side
Got your ticket to ride
And he blushed at my verbal logistics
And he shied but he came
As he asked me my name
And I said I am love
And how can you resist it

Now that you've kissed it
How can you resist it
If you go
I know you're gonna miss it
How can you resist it
After all
You told me that you wished it
How can you resist it

"Hypnotized"

"Hypnotized"


Hypnotized, you got me hypnotized
All it took was one little look into your eyes
I'll do what ever you say, command me baby and I'll obey
Because I love you - need you - I want you
Feels so good sometimes I just want to say
La la la ha ha
You got me walking and talking in a trance
In a magic spell of romance
Make me hold you - make me kiss you
My heart is yours to command
Hypnotized - gee, gee I'm so hypnotized
Just one touch from your fingertips
One kiss from your soft and tender lips
I'll go wherever you want me to go
Everything I got darling is yours - yes it is
La la la ha ha

You got me caught up in a spell that you cast
Please, please make it last

 

[fox69]

"Hypnotized Prelude"

"Hypnotized Prelude"


Lady Tee sing one oldie for me
Croon me a tune
Sweet soft and low
Only you can hypnotize me
Blow baby, blow baby, blow baby, blow

Come on then
Don't worry bout it boo
Because I got you

It was the age of aquarius
At the start of pices
Just before the dawn
Turnin' me on
You was the bomb
Steppin' to me
Here comes the real G

You stepped to me like a warrior
Braids all down your back
You sure could fire it up
Throwin' it down
Bustin' it up
Under your - [Help! What's this word? ]

You be my bitter and my sweetness, baby
That's fo' sho'
My power and my weakness

I got you, don't worry bout shhh...
You know the way I take it
You understand it
Don't worry bout it boo
Because I got you

It was a time for miracles
Dreams and visions seemed to come true
Whenever we wished them to
Didn't they baby?
Yeah, you were so young and so nice
And couldn't believe what a cassanova
Brown skinned man like me
Want to do for you
You were my passion and my pleasure
And you were my pain
I tried to school you
And to rule you and make you tame
I tried to teach you
But you didn't wanna play the game
With me, oh no

You know the way I like it
The way I need it
I got you, don't worry bout shhh...
You know the way I want it
The way I feel it
I got you, don't worry bout shhh...
You know the way I dig it
The way I planned it
I got you, don't worry bout shhh...
You know the way I take it
You understand it
Don't worry bout it boo
Because I got you

Just call my name
I'm gonna be there for ya baby
It's you that I love baby
I'll be right by your side
I wouldn't be me without ya baby
I wouldn't be free without ya baby
I wouldn't be free
Oh oh oh baby baby baby baby...
I wouldn't be free
I wouldn't feel the things I
Feel and baby no

I wouldn't have
This kind of passion in my soul
I would have never been as cold as icy snow
I would have never left my home
(Rick continues to say "and my Blow")
Buffalo, no no
(Teena says the Buffalo
They think they're slick)
You be my bitter and my sweetness
My power and my weakness
And there's mo'
I tried to get away
But I could never really be free

You know the way I like it
The way I need it
I got you, don't worry bout shhh...
You know the way I want it
The way I feel it
I got you, don't worry bout shhh...
You know the way I dig it
The way I planned it
I got you, don't worry bout shhh...
You know the way I give it
You understand it
Don't worry bout it boo
Because I got you

Oh baby...

Don't worry bout shhh...

[Teena Marie:]
Aw naw, I don't believe this
There's a new girl in town
Is your name De De O'Neal?

[De De:]
Yeah, that's me.
They call me Cognac

[Teena Marie:]
You know you've got a lot of nerve comin' up in here in
My party

[De De:]
Oh, no disrespect Miss Teena
Evidently, you've got something to say to me
So say it, girl
Bring it!

What makes you think...
That I'm peace enough to stand by
And let you take my man from me
And what makes you so sure that he's in love with you?
Cause anytime he wants to, get love
He's making love to me
You feelin' me?

[Teena Marie:]
You're just a young girl
With stars in your eyes
I don't think you even understand it, De De
Or that you realize
I give him all my precious time
And maybe I've been a bit too blind
But for last 7 years or so, you see
He's been making love to me
Do you understand me?

I love him too
Just as much... if not maybe more than you do
Don't be no fool

[De De:]
I love him too
And if you think I'm going to give him up

[Teena Marie & De De:]
Then you're a fool

[De De:]
You better think about the consequences

[Teena Marie:]
You better think about the mind and common senses

[De De:]
You better think about the things that I can bare

[Teena Marie:]
You better think about my child that's on the way

[De De:]
You better think about the lovin' game, I'm not here to play

[Teena Marie:]
You better think of right now you're in my domain

[Teena Marie & De De:]
You better think

[Teena Marie:]
You better think and stop believing in all the trust cause

[Teena Marie & De De:]
He's been making love to us

[Teena Marie:]
What a revelation

[De De:]
And I love him too

[Teena Marie & De De:]
Just as much

[Teena Marie:]
If not maybe more than you do

[De De:]
Don't be no fool

[Teena Marie:]
I love him too

[Teena Marie & De De:]
And if you think I'm going to give him up

[Teena Marie:]
You've lost a screw
Don't be no fool

[Teena Marie:]
Listen, you'd better think again, girl
You'd better think again
Cause I love my baby, love my baby

[De De:]
You'd better think again, sister girl
You'd better think again
Cause I love that man
Hey don't you know, he's mine

[Teena Marie:]
And if I haven't broke it down and tied it to you, dear

DeDe: Yeah yeah yeah

[Teena Marie & De De:]
Then, let me make this crystal clear
Just so you know where I'm coming from

[De De:]
Woman-to-woman

[Teena Marie:]
Woman-to-woman

[De De:]
I love him too

[Teena Marie:]
I love him, I love him, too
Just as much if not maybe more than you do

[De De:]
I love him too

[Teena Marie:]
I love him, I love him
You better think about the consequences

[De De:]
You better think about the mind and common senses

[Teena Marie:]
You better think about the things that I can bare

[De De:]
You better think of right now you're in my domain

"I'm Gonna Have My Cake (And Eat It Too)"

"I'm Gonna Have My Cake (And Eat It Too)"


I miss your gentleness that spoiled me
Your tender kiss that so aroused me
I miss your nakedness next to mine
Your sweet familiar scent has left me
With memories that come and get me
In the dreams I have at night

I need you more than I can say
How can I express
Through all these words I know
I'm a lady, yes I am
With my destination planned
I don't have time for babies no, no
And it's hard, hard to keep a man

But I tell you one thing that I'm gonna do
I'm gonna have my cake and eat it too
One day, some way, somehow, somewhere
Somewhere, somewhere
Can you wait baby
Somewhere
Can you wait baby

I count my blessings, make my wishes
And still I find myself suspicious
That truly love isn't just a myth
And it's hard to fall in love when you know
You got to rush to do the next show
And you can't be with the one you're with

But I need you more than I can say
How can I express
Through all these words I know
I'm a lady, yes I am
With my situation planned
I don't have time for babies no, no
And it's hard, hard to keep a man
But I tell you one thing that I'm gonna to do
I'll have my cake and eat it too
One day
Tell you one thing that I'm gonna do
I'll have my cake and eat it too
One day, somehow, some way
I'll tell you one thing that I'm gonna do
I'm gonna have my cake, baby, and you
One day, someway, someway
Sugar

Tell you one thing that I'm gonna do
I'm gonna have my cake and eat it too
One day, somehow, someway
Sugar, please don't hold your breath
'Cause you just might turn blue
If your patience doesn't get the best of you
One day I'm gonna have my cake, my love
And you
