Tekst piosenki

Alright, girls, here we go again

We gon' have to get together

And figure out what we gon' do with all these men

You know how they can be, don't you?


Oh, yeah, they sit back and they take all them good years away

Take everything they can get and then when you hit 25, talk about

"Oh, you done got too old for me

I'mma have to go out and find me somebody about 18"


They ain't playin'

See, you laugh it off if you want to

But they serious as a heart attack

You know what I mean


So, what we gotta do is get our heads together

(Beware, sister, sister, you better beware)

And figure out how we gon' change things around a little bit

You know what I mean


We got to work on this from morning 'til night

(Beware, sister, sister, you better beware)

(Look out)

'Cause, as long as you let them get away with it, they gon' do it

(Look out)

They'll do it every time


Now, take for instance

When a dude drives up, see, in this big, fine car

Starts tellin' you, "How fine you are, oh, baby, you fine"

(Beware, sister, sister, you better beware)


Yeah, and then he gon' try to get you inside that car, talkin' 'bout

"I'm gonna make you a star, baby"

(Beware, sister, sister, you better beware)

Beware, sister, you got to look out for that


Then there's always the type that's gon' come over

And bring you diamonds and furs and all this stuff

(Look out)

I tell you what, girls, I want you to take 'em

That's right


'Cause you gotta keep what you got while you're hot

And don't give nothin' up to nobody

And no matter what they say, you got to tell 'em right away

That you ain't givin' nothin' up to nobody, no how


When you're hot, you're hot

(That's right, girls, don't give nothin' away)

When you're not, you're not

When you're hot, you're hot

When you're not, you're not


Temptation is such

(Temptation)

It won't get you half as much

(Temptation)

As you get when your man is good to you

(Temptation)


And as long as he makes you feel

That his love is really real

Then, baby, here's what you got to do


You gotta dig the situation

Have a good relation

Show appreciation but without hesitation


You got to let him know

That he's gonna have to go

If he ever starts messin' 'round on you

(No, no, no, no)


And you gotta keep what you got while you're hot

And don't give nothin' up to nobody

Hey, and no matter what they say, you got to tell 'em right away

I ain't givin' nothin' up to nobody, no how


(Beware, sister, sister, you better beware)

I ain't givin' nothin' up

You ain't gettin' nothin' yet, junior

(Beware, sister, sister, you better beware)

That's right


Now listen

Now, I'm gonna hold on to my man just as long as I can hold him

(Just hold on, just hold on)

See, but I ain't gonna take no stuff 'cause like I told you, I've had enough

(Just hold on)


And, even though my love is strong

I ain't gonna let him do me wrong

And, if he acts like he wants to go

I'm gonna walk him right out the door


And I'm gonna keep what I got while I'm hot

I ain't givin' nothin' up to nobody

(When you're hot, you're hot)

(When you're not, you're not)

Hey, and no matter what they say, I'll tell them right away

I ain't givin' nothin' up to nobody, no how


(Beware, sister, sister, you better beware)

No, I ain't givin' nothin' away

(Beware, sister, sister, you better beware)

I'm gon' keep everything I've got, that's right

(Beware, sister, sister, you better beware)

(Beware, sister, sister, you better beware)


Hit the music, you dawg

[Incomprehensible]

Ooh, feels good


I, I'm gon' keep what I got while I'm hot

(Look out)

And ain't gon' give it up to nobody

And no matter what they say, I'll tell them right away

I ain't givin' nothin' up to nobody, no how

I ain't givin' nothin' up, no


(Beware)

Not now, not next week, the next year or in the hereafter

(Look out)

What you gotto give me

See that's what I want to hear about

That's right


(Beware)

See the whole trick is we should all be walkin' around here

In diamonds and furs and drivin' 'em big fine cars

(Look out)

But they ain't gonna do that


You young girls out there, you better watch your step

Because they lookin' for you, honey

They after you like white on rice

That's right, don't give 'em a chance


You give 'em an inch, they gon' take a whole mile

You heard that sayin' before?

(Look out)

Well, it's the truth


Yeah, look, oh, oh, oh, oh

Look here comes one now

(Look out)

Look at, look at this car, hon

Look at this car here


Oh, oh, he's slowin' down too

(Beware)

Alright, girl, he's after you

(Look out)

Yes, indeed, drivin' a Mercedes, got 'em a poodle in the backseat

Now you know you don't need no dog, don't you?


(Beware)

Alright, he gon' talk to you now, don't you get in that car

Now listen

(Look out)

I told you what he was gon' say to you, didn't I?


Yeah, they don't change the line too much

It's the same old thing, yeah

Don't you get in there

You've gotto get yours first, honey

That's the way it's gon' be from now on


Give me, give me, give me

That's right, whoo

Keep it, don't turn it loose for nothin'

They all after it

That's right

That's right


I'm gon' keep what I got while I'm hot

And ain't gon' give it up to nobody

(When you're hot, you're hot)

(When you're not, you're not)

And no matter come what may, I'm gon' tell them right away

I ain't givin' nothin' up to nobody, no how


(Beware, sister, sister, you better beware)

(Beware, sister, sister, you better beware)

I wanna see what you gon' give me before I give up anything

(Beware, sister, sister, you better beware)

And if it ain't right, you know what they say

(Beware, sister, sister, you better beware)


You slow, you blow, you snooze, you lose

Well, you done lost out, ha?

(Look out)

I wanna see somethin' that's gon' hold my attention

You know what I mean?

(Look out)


Yo, what color's your money?

Always I like the green, that's what I wanna see, green

For days, show me your bank book

With a lot of zeroes after the first five numbers and I'm happy


See now, I don't wanna see no Washingtons and no Lincolns

Show me some Grants

Show me some, some Hamiltons, you know what I mean?

(Look out)

I want some blue chips

And I ain't talkin' 'bout some food stamps neither, honey


I want some stocks and bonds

(Look out)

All of 'em in my name, that's right

(Look out)


I want all I can get before you get anything

I ain't givin' up a thing till you show me

The proof is in the puddin', honey, that's what they say

You gotto prove it to me


I'm gon' keep what I got

'Cause you know like they say

When you're hot, you're hot

And when you're not, you're just not, yeah


I know I'm hot, he, he, yeah

Gon' be hot too for a long time too

As long as I can get to mess around with fools like you


I told you to get that dog outta here, didn't I?

No, no, no, he ain't gonna come in here pleadin' your case

Get your dog out


Don't come here doodin' up my room
