Donnie: 

Saw a homegirl at the corner store 

Eyes started bugging, mouth fell to the floor 

She had a miniskirt and a sexy pose 

I tried to rap to her, but I just froze 

Tell me now fellas, what can I do? 

To make a girl like me, like a girl likes you? 

Danny: Well Homeboy get ready! 

Joe: 'Cause you want correcting 

Jordan: 'Cause a girl needs love 

All: And plenty of affection 

Jon: If a girl were mine, I'd give her the world 

I'd buy her diamonds and pearls just to make her my girl 

Jordan: That might work with your girl, but not with mine. 

She's not the type of girl to fall for any line 

Joe: I'd take her out to dinner, treat her like a winner 

I may be young, but I'm no beginner

Danny: All your ways are good, but not as good as mine 

You have to be sincere for a girl that fine! 

Chorus 

Baby, won't you please be mine? 

Are you down? 

Baby, won't you please be mine? 

Are you down? HO! 

Danny: Alright then, D., since you gave it a try 

All: Tell us about the girl who caught your eye 

Donnie: 

It was after school and I was feeling cool 

'Til I saw that girl and I started to drool 

So I thought to myself, take it easily 

I couldn't let peer pressure get the best of me 

I thought to myself, what should I do? 

That's when she came up on me and said 'I love you' 

Donnie: Who me? 

All: Yeah, you! 

Donnie: Couldn't be! 

All: But it's true! 

Donnie: So I rushed back home to tell you guys, 

But not before I got a quick kiss goodbye! 

All: Did you meet her friends? 

Donnie: Yeah, they looked def. 

All: Yo, that was fresh! 

Donnie: Word! Let's go left. 

Jordan: So here goes the keys 

Joe: On which it depends 

Jordan: She's got 

Joe: One! 

Jordan: Two! 

Danny: Three! 

Jon: Four! 

All: Fresh girlfriends!
