That Girl Lyrics

Yo
Can I talk to you for a minute?
Look
All I did was look
Why you trippin'?
Look, check this out

Check it
Baby look, I'm tired of tryin'
To convince you that I ain't caught up lyin'
When she walk past me I looked
So what, big deal
I don't understand how that could make you feel
That my love ain't for real

Everyday I thank the Lord above that you're with me (you're with me)
Tell me why would I throw that away?
(Why would I throw that away)
What can I do to prove that this is where I wanna be? (Yeah)
Though I may look occasionally
You're the only one I need

If I wanted (that girl)
Then I would be with (that girl)
But that one ain't for me (hey)
She's fine as hell but she'll always be (that girl)
Nothin' more than (that girl)
No matter what she do, she don't compare to you (check it)

What you yellin for? (Why you screamin'?)
Girl, you act as if you just caught me cheatin'
When you look at other men and don't act like you don't
I don't trip because I know that I'm the guy
You come home to every night, baby yeah

Everyday I thank the Lord above that you're with me (that you're with me)
Tell me why would I throw that away?
(Why would I throw that away)
What can I do to prove that this is where I wanna be? (Yeah)
Though I may look occasionally
You're the only one I need

If I wanted (that girl)
Then I would be with (that girl)
But that one ain't for me (yo)
She's fine as hell but she'll always be (that girl)
And nothin' more than (that girl)
No matter what she do (hey), she don't compare to you (yeah, check it)

I know I need you
Right here with me
Oh I know I need you
No other girl won't do
'Cause I need you
Right here with me, oh I (oh I)
Need you
Whoa

(That girl)
Then I would be with, yeah (that girl)
But that one ain't for me (hey)
She's fine as hell but she'll always be (that girl)
And nothin' more than (that girl)
No matter what she do (yeah), she don't compare to you (ooh)

Said if I wanted (that girl)
Then I would be with (that girl) oh-ooh
But that one ain't for me
Ooh, she's fine as hell but she'll always be (that girl)
Nothin' more than (that girl)
No matter what she do, she don't compare to you (yeah)

If I wanted that girl
Then I would be with that girl
But that one ain't for me
She's fine as hell but she'll always be
That girl
Nothin' more than that girl
No matter what she do
She just can't be you
Baby
