Lyrics
[Intro]
The American Dream
And you know what I mean
Radio Killa
Trick beat the track up like gorillas, oh
I, I, I, I
[Verse 1]
Yeah, we up in the club, I see her do her thang
You might wanna rap, but she'll make you sing
See, I was on her, and she was on him
She all up on my thang, I got my thang on her hip
She ATL pop, don't know how to act
She left for one song, and came right back
Grinding on me, the rest of the night
Her man started mugging, he could see it in my eyes
[Chorus]
Lil' mama so hood (I love your girl)
Lil' mama stay fly (I love your girl)
Wife beater with the denim (I love your girl)
She keep them heels on high (I love your girl)
Man, look at shorty roll (I love your girl)
Man, look at Shorty go (I love your girl)
I'm sorry I got it in for your girl, girlfriend
[Chorus]
Now she run her fingers through her hair
He tryna call her over there, but she like, "Fuck that ****"
She drop it down to the floor, I'm like, "Shorty, you should go"
But she like, "Fuck that ****"
Call it envy, I want her on me
All up in my head, now she in my bed
I, I, I, I
[Verse 2]
Uh, uh, me and lil' shorty in the back
Talking 'bout dis, talking 'bout dat
Got her on the 'Tron, she acting all bad
Girl chose me, don't be mad
Kelly told y'all don't bring 'em in the club
The way she rock that, got the boy in love
And I pray that y'all ain't serious
'Cause seriously she's on my dick
[Chorus]
Lil' mama so hood (I love your girl)
Lil' mama stay fly (I love your girl)
Wife beater with the denim (I love your girl)
She keep them heels on high (I love your girl)
Man, look at shorty roll (I love your girl)
Man, look at Shorty go (I love your girl)
I'm sorry I got it in for your girl, girlfriend
[Chorus]
Now she run her fingers through her hair
He tryna call her over there, but she like, "Fuck that ****"
She drop it down to the floor, I'm like, "Shorty, you should go"
But she like, "Fuck that ****"
Call it envy, I want her on me
All up in my head, now she in my bed
I, I, I, I
[Refrain]
Oh, I
Aye
Oh, I
Oh, I
Aye
Oh, I
The American Dream
[Bridge]
Usually, you won't see me hate on another dude
My heart got me up in here willing to separate you from your boo
But she on me, and I'm on her
We walking out the club, shawty, what's up?
Mmm, I want her in the worst way
Plus I just found out that it's her birthday
[Chorus]
Lil' mama so hood (I love your girl)
Lil' mama stay fly (I love your girl)
Wife beater with them denim (I love your girl)
She keep them heels on high (I love your girl)
Man, look at shorty roll (I love your girl)
Man, look at Shorty go (I love your girl)
I'm sorry I got it in for your girl, girlfriend
[Chorus]
Now she run her fingers through her hair
He tryna call her over there, but she like, "Fuck that ****"
She dropping down to the floor, I'm like, "Shorty, you should go"
But she like, "Fuck that ****"
Call it envy, I want her on me
All up in my head, now she in my bed
I, I, I, I
[Outro]
Part of me feels so bad, but ooh, not that bad
Situation got you mad, I would be too
'Cause damn she bad
Damn she bad, bad, bad, bad
Damn she bad, bad, bad, bad
