Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh yeah
Ooo, ooo
Well well well
Oh yeah, oh yeah
[Verse 2]
Listen, girl
You want me, but he needs you
Yet you're tellin' me that everything is cool
Tryin' to convince me, baby, to do as you say
Just go along and see things your way
[Verse 3]
And keep it on the down low
Whispering nobody has to know, nobody nobody
We can keep it on the downlow
Whispering nobody has to know
[Verse 4]
Secret lovers is what you wanna be, yeah
While making love to him, girl, you're silently calling on me
What is a man to do in a situation like this
I feel there is something that I, I don't wanna miss
[Verse 5]
Keep it on the down low
Girl, nobody, nobody has to know
I'll keep it on the down low, you better keep it, keep it
Nobody, nobody, nobody has to know
[Verse 6]
Beautiful you are, but you're his by far
Comin' by my way drivin' his fancy car
Makin' plans to be in my life forever
Tell me, tell me that we'll always be together
[Verse 7]
Keep it on the down low
Nobody, nobody has to know
Keep it on the down low
Nobody has to know, nobody has to know
[Verse 8]
Listen, babe
I won't whisper a word
Nobody, nobody
How could you go so long, so long
Keep it on the
Oh oh, oh oh, oh
No no no nobody, nobody, nobody
Keep it on the down low
On the down low baby
Nobody has to know
