Lyrics

[Intro]
Yo fellas
If a brotha calls a girl from the hotel room at two in the mornin'
Is that or is that not, a booty call?
Can ya help me?
[Verse 1]
It's just a booty call
[Verse 2]
Hey baby, turn around
It's not what it seems
The way I like it by the pound
Must be in the genes
Only wanna have fun
No time to get sprung
That's the way it is on Blackstreet
After all, it's a booty call
[PreChorus]
Girl, you know what I like
You've got it
Just be there tonight
I want it, hey, yeah
You know that it's right
All I wanna do is be where you're at
Why must I feel like that?
[Chorus]
Why must I feel like that?
Why must I chase the cat?
Nothin' but the dog in me
Nothin' but the dog in me, yeah
Why must I feel like that?
Why must I chase the cat?
Ain't nothin' but the dog in me
[Verse 3]
Sometimes I feel that I
Might wanna settle down
But on my wedding night, I fear
I'm gonna play around
Life is too short to lie
I mean no disrespect at all
But if the other woman's on my mind
On the hotline, it's a booty call
[PreChorus]
You know what I like
You got it
Just be there tonight
I want it
You know that it's right
All I wanna do is be where you're at
Why must I feel like that?
[Chorus]
Why must I feel like that?
Why must I chase the cat?
Ain't nothin' but the dog in me
Nothin' but the dog in me
Why must I feel like that?
Why must I chase the cat?
Ain't nothin' but the dog in me
Bow-wow-wow, yippie-yo, yippie-yay, hey
[Verse 4]
Yo, Twan, take it to the bridge
[Bridge]
Now every dog has his day and I'm diggin' on the vibes
See, we can get together, make tonight real live
Checkin' out the front, checkin' out the back
Well, I'll be goddamned, is it really like that?
Summer's hot, winter's freezing
Chasin' that cat all through the season
Ayo, girl, stop teasin'
Check your trips 'cause I really wanna stroke
You're sayin' I'll drown, I'm sayin' you'll choke
Back at my place, face to face
I'm tryna be rude so we can cut the chase
You know what I like and, baby, you got it
Come on, let's get this started
Back on Blackstreet, we can have a ball
'Cause after all, girl, it's just a booty call
[PreChorus]
You know what I like
You've got it
Just be there tonight
I want it
You know that it's right
All I wanna do is be where you're at
Why must I feel like that?
[Chorus]
Why must I feel like that?
Why must I chase the cat?
Nothin' but the dog in me
Nothin' but the dog in me, yeah
Why must I feel like that?
Why must I chase the cat?
Nothin' but the dog in me
Bow-wow-wow, yippie-yo, yippie-yay, hey
[Chorus]
Why must I feel like that?
Why must I chase the cat?
Nothin' but the dog in me
Nothin' but the dog, nothin' but the dog in me
Why must I feel like that?
Why must I chase the cat?
Nothin' but the dog in me
Bow-wow-wow, yippie-yo, yippie-yay
[Verse 5]
Girl, I got to have you
[Outro]
Why must I feel like that?
Why must I chase the cat?
Nothin' but the dog in me
Bow-wow-wow, yippie-yo, yippie-yay, hey
[Outro]
Why must I feel like that?
Why must I chase the cat?
