The Jones

Hit Me!
Come on.
Drop It.
Wow.
Hit Me.
Hit Me.
Come on.
Whooooo Weee.
Drop It.
I’m Gonna Do it.
What cha gone do?
I’m Gonna Do it.
(Yeah Yeah)
Watch me now.
Who wants to be like, who wants to be like the Jones'.
(Yeah Yeah)
Who wants to be like, who wants to be like the Jones'.
One lonely night, I decided to go out, with some friends of mine.
(Yeah Yeah)
I was fresh, I must Confess, I was dressed to impress.
Paid 20 dollars at the door.
When I walked in I got more than I bargained for.
If by chance she’d happened to dance my way, these are the words I would have
said.
(Oh ho) Who wants to be like, who wants to be like the Jones'.
(Yeah Yeah)
Don’t want to be like the Jones.
Who wants to be like, (no no no) who wants to be like (noo) the Jones'.
When the music started to play, took me away, somewhere I’ve never been before.
I met this girl, she’s someone, a cutie pie, she really turned me on.
She happened to ask me for a dance.
I didn’t want to blow my one and only
chance.
When the jam began to play, these are the only words I can think of to say.
I expected to go out, have a good time with my friends and find myself some
peace of mind.
How was I to know that I would meet someone, a gorgeous girl that’d turn out to
be a waste of time.
She told me her last name was Jones', women go on lots of phones.
She said that she would give me the world if I let her be my girl.
She said if she became my wife, a family would choose my life.
I shook my head and these are the very words I said.
Who wants to be like, (Heyyy) who wants to be like the Jones'.
(Well) Don’t want to be, Don’t want to be like the Jones'.
Who wants to be like, (yeah oh yeah.) who wants to be like the Jones'.
I Don’t want to be like the Jones'.
Who wants to be like, (Don't want to be), who wants to be like (I don’t want to
be) the Jones'.
Don’t want to be, Don’t want to be like the Jones'.
Who wants to be like, (Don't want to be), who wants to be like (I don’t want to
be) the Jones'.
I Don’t want to be like the Jones'.
Hey.
Who wants to be like, who wants to be like the Jones'.
