  • All the girls, at the school, won't y'all meet us down there.
    We gon' take ya, then gon' show you how we do it round here.
    We got a party on the roof
    If you miss it, oh well
    Gotta keep it on the low
    Ain't nobody can tell

    Sixteen balling like them boys at Menudo
    Only difference is our crib is in the hood
    We got them jumping out the pool like they're all from Reno
    We dance like the Jackson's,
    All we're missing is Tito

    It's a whole lot of y'all that's up in here that's looking for love,
    But we go breaking hearts and gettin' to the money on tour.
    If you my honey, it's only for the moment,
    'Cause another 100 want it,
    We keep it young, popping off

    We gotta keep her,
    Gotta keep her, keep her,
    Keep her on the low
    Gotta k-k-keep her,
    Gotta keep her on the low
    Now even tho I got a girl,
    But I wanna get some more
    Gotta figure how to get 'em
    Without messin' up my flow!
    Gotta keep her,
    Gotta keep her, keep her,
    Keep her on the low
    Gotta k-k-keep her,
    Gotta keep her on the low
    It's the One to the Two,
    And one that lets it go.
    When the DJ plays my music,
    We gon' get down on the floor

    Let me define, what I call a girlfriend!
    She will be mine, about two weekends
    I'm only sixteen, that means it's show time
    When I ain't with her, that means I'm on mine!

    It's a whole lot of y'all that's up in here that's looking for love,
    But we go breaking hearts and gettin' to the money on tour.
    If you my honey, it's only for the moment,
    Cause another a hundred want it,
    We keep it young, popping off

    We gotta keep her,
    Gotta keep her, keep her,
    Keep her on the low
    Gotta k-k-keep her,
    Gotta keep her on the low
    Now even tho I got a girl,
    But I wanna get some more
    Gotta figure how to get 'em
    Without messin' up my flow!
    Gotta keep her,
    Gotta keep her, keep her,
    Keep her on the low
    Gotta k-k-keep her,
    Gotta keep her on the low
    It's the One to the Two,
    And one that lets it go.
    When the DJ plays my music,
    We gon' get down on the floor

    We go breaking hearts and gettin' to the money on tour.
    If you my honey, it's only for the moment,
    'Cause another 100 want it,
    We keep it young, popping off

    We gotta keep her,
    Gotta keep her, keep her,
    Keep her on the low
    Gotta k-k-keep her,
    Gotta keep her on the low
    Now even tho girl,
    But I wanna get some more
    Gotta figure how to get 'em
    Without messin' up my flow!
    Gotta keep her,
    Gotta keep her, keep her,
    Keep her on the low
    Gotta k-k-keep her,
    Gotta keep her on the low
    It's the One to the Two,
    And one that lets it go.
    When the DJ plays my music,
    We gon' get down on the floor

    We gon' get down on the dance floor
    Girls, move them hips though!
    Back up in yo speakers,
    We gon' smash on the radio
    I said for y'all to get down on the dance floor
    Smash on the radio
    You know what I mean shawty.
    Look how fast the cash blow! Writer/s: BLAIR ATKINSON, CANDICE CLOTIEL NELSON, CHRESANTO LORENZO ROMELO AUGUST, CRAIG THOMAS CRIPPEN, JACOB ANTHONY PEREZ, LAKEISHA GAMBLE, RAQUAN T. SMITH, SEAN GARRETT, WALTER WORTH III MILLSAP
