[Intro: Wyclef Jean]I'm ready, I'm ready

Check, 'Clef, to, rock

Hey I'm dancin with this girl, you find your own girl

(Find your own girl, find your own girl,

find your own girl, find your own girl)

It's still no fightin tonight though homey

Geyeah, it's all love tonight



[Verse One: Wyclef]My love good for all season, winter summer fall spring

I got de {?} flow, ting-a-ling-a-ling

Columbian swing when Shaki' do her t'ing

One bright feed de power like Lords of the Ring

Many fight fi the crown, but there's only one King

Many girls want the title, but there's only one Queen

One King for the Queen, one Queen for the King~!

I don't wanna wake up if this thing is a dream



[Chorus: Shakira]If you have no home, I'll be your shelter

Baby don't be scared

If you lost your sight, I will be your eyes

I'd lead you in the spotlight

If you run out of time, I will rewind time

Only to be with you tonight

Forever is never, never enough time

So make it forever mine



[Verse Two: Wyclef]

Time after time, you get better like fine wine

I look into your eyes and see your soul in the skyline

Call me Mr. Freeze I feel a chill in my spineline

Cause every time you touch me, it's like a divine sign

Many fight fi the crown, but there's only one King

Many girls want the title, but there's only one Queen

One King for the Queen, one Queen for the King~!

I don't wanna wake up if this thing is a dream



[Chorus]

[Verse Three: Wyclef]And I don't wanna, put out this fire

Transition {?} momma

I feel my place where the soul get higher

Nights get cold I gotta hold ya

{?} slept in the middle of the sofa

{?} and a loafer, but we had each other

Christmas throw Santa down the chimney

Felt like Pookie from New Jack when he got the turkey

Cause we those ReFugees, survive the tsunami

So ain't nobody gonna tell me this ain't what I need



[Chorus]

[Outro: Wyclef]Shaki', 'Clef, Jerry Wonder what we tell 'em boy

(Find your own girl, find your own girl,

find your own girl, find your own girl)

Yo Cliff, let the horns go

(Find your own girl, find your own girl,

find your own girl, find your own girl)
