My Medallion (short Version) Lyrics - Prince

Uh uh, mm mm 

Say fellas 

U ever have one them girls that just... bad? 

Know what I mean? 

Nah, I ain't talkin' about fine, I'm talkin' about bad 

Cuss all the time, steal... man she rob her own moms 

Down at the post office got 2 pictures 

I'm talkin' about one of Bebe's kids, y'all - bad! 

Hear me? 

Oh, she fine 2...fine 

Don't know why, I want that girl {x2} 

'Twas the middle of the summer 

Rather late in the day 

This pretty thang, she walked up 2 me 

She said she was good 2 play 

She told me 2 close my eyes 

So she could get a kiss 

I said, "Sure, honey" and obliged (Sure, honey) 

Girl snatched my medallion and called me a bitch, running!

Don't know why, I want that girl {x4} 

I found out her place of employment 

Dry cleaning - "We do fine" (Ha ha ha ha ha...) 

2 manifest a little unenjoyment in her life 

Was all that was running through the middle of my mind 

There are many elements: wind, fire, water 

But none quite like the element of surprise 

See my baby, she gave me that medallion 

And it, uh, U know, it mean a lot 2 me 

So, so I walked up in that piece with a disguise on 

And I said, "Hey! 

I don't know what your name or your game is 

But U better get your G-hind down on the floor 

Cuz U see, I'm in a mood 2 do something koo-koo 2 U" 

So she gave me that kiss and ran out the back door, ow!

Don't know why, I want that girl 

Don't know why, but I want that girl 

Don't know why, I want that girl 

Don't know why, but I want that girl 

Oh, turning around the corner 

Thought that she would get by, huh - much 2 her surprise 

Michael Yardbird dropped both his crutches downstairs 

Tripped baby on her backside 

Holdin' on the banister, sliding down slow 

U know he about 2 fall down all them stairs, yo 

My medallion's on the center line 

She dropped my piece in the middle of the street 

The taxi cab about 2 run it down (Beep beep, oh yeah) 

But when the bling-bling caught the driver's eyes 

He slammed on his brakes and jumped out his ride 

And as he was just about 2 put his fat neck up in my jewels 

(Uhn uhn uhn, nigga!) 

Yardbird bounced down the stairs of that house 

Crushing the bad girl like the Union Army crushed the Deep South 

And when the driver turned his head 2 get his peek on 

I entered at my medallion and broke the other way 

Sister was limpin' but she was kinda good 2 play 

Don't know why I want that girl {x4} 

(Don't, man) 

(Why)
