Now I don't have to question
Where you were last night
Cause I already know what you will say
I already know you lie
But I can't be mad at ya
Cause there's something that you don't know
That when you're gone, I do my own thing
And I catch a bone while you're doggin' me
- When you're out in the club, don't think I'm not
Even when you're out makin' love, don't think I'm not
When you're feelin' good in somebody's spot
Gettin' hot, don't stop
Just don't think I'm not
Cause I'm out gettin' mine
When I try to get your attention
You ignore me everytime
You are so caught up doin' your dirt
That you didn't notice mine
Well I couldn't put up with ya scheemin'
And I couldn't put up with ya lies
They say two wrongs won't make it right
But it's suitin' me just fine
Don't be surprised to know that
Sometimes women play the male
You may not believe it, but it's real
The game is so real (Game is so real)
So real
So real (Real)
Oh don't think we won't do it
When you're out in the club
When you're out in the club, don't think I'm not
Even when you're out makin' love, don't think I'm not
When you're feelin' good in somebody's spot
Gettin' hot, don't stop
Just don't think I'm not
Cause I'm out gettin' mine
When you're out in the club, don't think I'm not
Even when you're out makin' love, don't think I'm not
When you're feelin' good in somebody's spot
Gettin' hot, don't stop
Just don't think I'm not
Cause I'm out gettin' mine (Mine, mine)
