Call Me a Mack
Usher · Other Songs - Usher
Yo!
What's sup?
Hey!
My name is Usher,
You can trust there ain't
No punks in this house,
And if U really wanna know what my name is
Just Call Me a Mack
Word,
Right!
Just Call me the mack
Anytime, baby,
Cause I ain't confused
Usher singing:
I maybe kinda young
But I got a
Whole lotta man in me
So I'm afraid
That I can't be played (Huh, ha!)
I don't mind if U wanna come by my crib
And chill,
But just be sure
That U call me first
Because the last girl that tried
To just be droppin' on by (Oh, no)
Learn not to play a playa
And, girl, you know
I ain't havin' that
Hook:
Just call me a mack
Cause I got it like that
U gotta play by the rules
Or I'll get back with U
It's a well known fact
That I got it like that
U gotta play by the rules
Just call me a mack
Now, baby, I ain't dumb
And all those silly
Games that you play
I see right through
So let me kick it to yah (To yah!)
I don't have a lot of girls,
But I gotta know
I'll get the respect that I give
That's just the way I live
Because the last girl
I had was moving
Things too fast (slow down)
She tried to pull a fooler
And you know
I ain't havin' that
Hook (twice):
Just call me a mack
Cause I got it like that
U gotta play by the rules
Or I'll get back with U
It's a well known fact
That I got it like that
U gotta play by the rules
Just call me a mack
Usher's Rap:
The mack is right here
And, yes, I care as much
Just giving a load of love
It's spreading everywhere
U see it's
here
here
And here
Catch a feeling if
I'm having a little trouble
I know my girl will always
Hit it
Pit it
Like an orange
Cause it looks
Like numbness
It's the lovin' and
Huggin'
And feeling inside
That keeps me
Pumpin'
Humpin'
On stage
I'm engaged
And, yes,
The truth is it
U see an
Ugly women
U better chill
Usher singing:
Oh, yes
Just like Usher's my name
I can't go chanin'
My ways (Oh,no)
As long as I'm chillin'
Then, baby,
U can call me a mack
What's sup?
Hey!
