She was the world and I was on top
Inner sense and whole lotta class
It's the things that make you go, oh, oh, oh
My girl bust in, caught us creatin' a boom
So I let Jay move into the crib and chill
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me
Songwriters: Robert Clivilles, Frederick Williams
I was at the crib, sittin' by the fireplace
The door bell rang, who could it be?
Things that make you go, hmm
Mysterious calls and the phone goes click
Here's how it started
There was a friend of mine named Jay
It's the things that make you go, hmm, hmm, hmm
Things that make you go, hmm
Over the guys and I'm gettin' jealous
Yo, my girlfriend didn't trust me, no
Ruin your life, sleep with your wife
Things that make you go, hmm
Things that make you go, hmm
The things that make you go, hmm
Things that make you go, hmm, hmm, hmm
It's the things that make you go, hmm, hmm, hmm
I watched the fight, I thought is was alright
Go away for business, come back with a tan
You're only makin' love in radical spurts
Things that make you go, hmm
Ain't no way he could be cheatin' on me
Yeah, but she lost control, I wouldn't take the bait
Sly as can be tight dress and all
Time went by, she filled my universe
The time had come for the baby down to the scene
It's the things that make you go, hmm, hmm, hmm
We made love, she said, "I was the first"
Hey ladies, have you ever had a man?
My boy kept tellin' me, yo, I don't know
It looked like Jay and I couldn't believe
Things that make you go, hmm
Sayin' he didn't have time to eat
Things that make you go, hmm
Seventeen and I was havin' a ball
And he's not even hungry, he wants to retreat
It's the things that make you go, hmm, hmm, hmm
So damned close we had the same blood type
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me
Things that make you go, hmm

Things that make you go, hmm, hey
Things that make you go, hmm
I think your girl's been playin' tic tac toe
Style that could give you whiplash
Things that make you go, hmm
Things that make you go, hmm
It's the things that make you go, hmm, hmm, hmm
The things that make you go, hmm
We said, "Hello" and my heart beat stopped
She said, "Girlfriend"?
The look on her face read sorrow and gloom
My girl's best friend had payed me a visit
The things that make you go, hmm
Things that make you go, hmm
Now, I know my girlfriend wouldn't approve
It's the things that make you go, hmm, hmm, hmm
I didn't realize my girl was settin' me up
It's the things that make you go, hmm, hmm, hmm
You say to yourself, "I'm gonna hit him with a brick"
Comes home late at night from work
Would come over late at night and say, "Hey"
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me
She said, "Yeah, why do you guys always ask that?
I'll ask my girl I know she only loves me
Got to the door, ding dong, who is it?
I tried to chill, she made the move
Things that make you go, hmm
It's the things that make you go, hmm, hmm, hmm
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me
Thought to myself then started to shrug
It's the things that make you go, hmm, hmm, hmm
Before my eyes in the delivery room
Things that make you go, hmm
Things that make you go, hmm
Watch your behind
I said, "Chill baby, baby chill baby, baby wait"
Dressed to a T to hang with the fellas
We were havin' a child and I got another gig
Things that make you go, hmm
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me
With this girl she really blew my mind
I wonder who bought him those B.V.D.'s
The things that make you go, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
He had his own room and helped pay the bills
Things that make you go, hmm
It's the things that make you go, oh, oh, oh
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me
To the bedroom he said his head hurts
Months went by and my wife got big
Wasn't I the one who took your virginity?
'Cause me and Jay who were really really tight
Comin' home late smellin' like perfume, fume
Just an example of how another brother can trample
Eleventh grade and Joe, I knew it all
Things that make you go, hmm
Things that make you go, hmm
Give it to me, give it to me
She knew that I was faithful, I really didn't have the gall
I fall in love for the very first time
You cooked him dinner now you feel like a jerk
It's the things that make you go, hmm, hmm, hmm
Robbie Rob, break it down
Drinkin' cocoa on the bear skin rug
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me
The things that make you go, hmm
