They Ain't Je
Jagged Edge · Other Songs - Jagged Edge
Don't get mad, your girl chose me
JE some P.I.M.P.'s
They cool, but they ain't JE
They cool, but they ain't JE
They cool, but they ain't JE
They ain't JE
I got a problem with this girl, and I need some help
She said she need a man like me, to keep for self
But I know she got a man, though she say she don't
C'mon girl, keep it real, we all grown folks
She said the truth for real is this
I done quit him, but he ain't quit me
Hope he ain't looking for no beef
So tell him you want me, he gotta leave
Don't get mad, your girl chose me
JE some P.I.M.P.'s
They cool, but they ain't JE
They cool, but they ain't JE
They cool, but they ain't JE
They ain't JE
And Y'all know... that I got love for my folks
And from decatur to Mechaicsville, College Park is just so real
I just gotta let you know that if you deal with me
Got nothing to do with R&B
All them songs that I wrote, ain't got no time to play around like clowns
Everybody know we put it down
Don't play with me
Your girl chose me
Don't get mad, your girl chose me
JE some P.I.M.P.'s
They cool, but they ain't JE
They cool, but they ain't JE
They cool, but they ain't JE
They ain't JE
So fix your face and steady replacing
I got folks in here, they in the place and don't be mistaken
We down like a basement
We've been here for years, this is just a taste test
And you can't be mad at me, cause I'm so so fly and your girl chose me
It happened once, sometimes your girl moves on
And you gotta move on
Don't get mad, your girl chose me
JE some P.I.M.P.'s
They cool, but they ain't JE
They cool, but they ain't JE
They cool, but they ain't JE
They ain't JE
