Lyrics Gettin’ in the Way - Jill Scott

Gettin’ in the Way

Sista Gurl, I know you don’t undastand,
but you gon' have to undastand he’s my man now.
What you had is gone.
Our thing is sweet.
Our thing is stronger than any lie you can tell on me.
He knows my heart.
And thats a part.
Ya roots are dug up so you might as well give up.
I see your intentions.
You can’t handle the truth.
He let you go a long time ago now it’s time to turn him loose.
Chorus:
You’re gettin in the way of what I’m feelin.
Sugar honey gurl, fly fly away.
I been a lady up til now.
Don’t know how much more I can take.
Queens shouldn’t swing if you know what I mean.
But I’m bout to take my rings off get me some vaseline.
Hook
You betta back down before you get smacked down,
you better chill (chill and i mean it)
You better back down before you get smacked down
you better chill (you betta relax urself)
You betta back down before you get smacked down,
you betta chill (he's my man gurl, nobody elses)
You better back down before you get smack down (
(you betta back down)
Chorus
You betta back down before you get smacked down,
you better chill.
(repeat until end of song)
Everything is beautiful between me and him
and here come you, running yo big mouth talkin
about me.
Telling him that you seen me up 24th street with some other cat.
But you know
thats a lie.
You keep lyin to my man girlfriend I’m gonna
take you in the middle of the street and
whoop your tail.
For all it’s worth.
$ 5.99 or somethin like that.
