Devin The Dude

Lyrics You got no time to play Devin The Dude

 246

You got no time to play


Every day I see your face, but I don't know what to say
You're so kind and you're so fine, but you got no time to play
You're grown up, you've been through stuff
And you're sick and tired of games
No rollercoaster, get closer, come and ride my thang
Ride my thang
Ride my thang
Ride my thang

Been checkin' you out daily
Thinkin' one day, maybe, I can make you my lady
But you're so pure and mature, you've played these games before
You look for so much more
You refuse to lose again, don't wanna get with
A dude who booze with friends, then want a quick hit
And if it ain't commitment, you'd rather chill
You got your kids, got your house, have your bills
So no time for lame excuses
And definitely you don't want a man who's abusive
Someone exclusive to live your life with
There's a piece of your puzzle missin', I think I might fit
And I think you'll like it; and since we both work the night shift
We oughta dip off right quick
Do lunch, screw hunch, or whatever you want
I don't wanna ask for too much, but

Every day I see your face, but I don't know what to say
You're so kind and you're so fine, but you got no time to play
You're grown up, you've been through stuff
And you're sick and tired of games
No rollercoaster, get closer, come and ride my thang
Ride my thang
Ride my thang
Ride my thang

You're off on the weekends, maybe we can
Sit by the fireplace and bust a couple of Key' cans
Play some old vinyl, Commodores, Lionel
Put it in your spinal; I'm a whore, I know
I'm just serious, so curious, ain't nobody here but us, so
Let's hug a little, snug a little, baby, let me rub the middle
Maybe it's not the right time nor the place
We oughta not let our right emotions go to waste
Let's slow the pace down
There's a lot of places to go in H-town
Or we can jump on a ship, go on a plane, hurricane season
Even in the snow or the rain
And everywhere we go, they'll know I'm your man
But you won't give me the time of day
Oh, what a shame

Every day I see your face, but I don't know what to say
You're so kind and you're so fine, but you got no time to play
You're grown up, you've been through stuff
And you're sick and tired of games
No rollercoaster, get closer, come and ride my thang
Ride my thang
Ride my thang
Ride my thang

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Underground hip-hop rapper Devin the Dude first made a prominent appearance on the platinum-selling Scarface album My Homies in 1998, when he performed two tracks. His debut solo album was released later that year, and he slowly began to build a reputation as a rapper with great potential, helped by a guest appearance on Dr. Dre's multi-million selling 2001. Third album To Tha X-Treme (2004) was praised by critics, but commercial success continued to elude Devin as a solo artist. Most recently, fourth album Waitin' To Inhale (2007) featured guest appearances from hip-hop stars like Andre 3000, Snoop Dogg and Lil Wayne. It was again praised by critics, and this time did better in the shops, reaching No.3 on the Billboard 200 Album chart.
