So Cool lyrics

(Verse)
Hey how ya doin yeah Im doin mighty fine
Last time I seen 'ya, it's been a long time
Stop smilin at me get that look off your face
Please don't even front stop being so fake
I know you do not like me yeah you made that really clear
You're always talkin'bout me from what I hear
Always turn me down when you thought that you could
I want you to know that im doin so good.
(Refrain)

Bills, Bills, Bills lyrics

[Verse 1 Beyonce:]

At first we started out real cool
Taking me places I ain't never been
But now, you're getting comfortable
Ain't doing those things you did no more
You're slowly making me pay for things
Your money should be handling
And now you ask to use my car (car)
Drive it all day and don't fill up the tank
And you have the audacity
To even come and step to me

Confessions (With Missy Elliott) lyrics

[Missy]
Uh, uh, oh

[Beyonce:]
Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh Ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh

The day you pissed me off I told Mike to pick me up
I told him you was buggin' and I don't like to fuss
He said he would look out for me If I needed a friend
He took me to his house and then he invited me in
Then we sat on the couch, he put his arms around my waist

Bug A Boo lyrics

[1:]
You make me wanna throw my pager out the window

Now That She's Gone lyrics

[Chorus:]
Now that she's gone you wanna come back
Is that a fact
You've got it like that
You made me wait too long, I'm gone
Now that she's gone you wanna come back
Is that a fact
Think you've got it like that
You made me wait too long, I'm gone

[Verse 1 Kelly:]
Take her to the movies
Dinner all the time
Shopping sprees for her
On me you never spent a dime
But I was there for you

Where'd You Go lyrics

[LaTavia:]

Oh baby where'd you go
I need you back wit' me
Oh baby where'd you go

[Repeat above with Chorus 2x's]

Where'd you go (Where'd you go)
Where'd you go, oh no
(So baby please, come back to me)

[Verse 1 - Beyonce:]
It has been five days
You haven't called me
Do you still want me, still need me
Am I on your mind
Are you thinking of me

Hey Ladies lyrics

[Chorus:]
Hey ladies why is it that men can go do us wrong
Why is it that we just decide to keep holdin' on
Why is it that we never seem to just have the strength to leave
But he's got to go, he's got to go
Hey ladies why is it that men can go do us wrong
Why is it that we just decide to keep holdin' on
Why is it that we never seem to just have the strength to leave

If You Leave (With Next) lyrics

[1] - [Destiny's Child]:
If you leave her, I'll leave him
We'll pack our bags, don't say a word
Let's go far away, to another place
Let's hide away, oh just you and me

[Beyonce:] I peeped him long time ago when he told me
(He's never seen the chick before)
He wouldn't give me no explanation
Cause he knows when I pack my bags it ain't for no vacation, so

[Destiny's Child:]

Jumpin, Jumpin lyrics

[Chorus:]
Ladies leave yo man at home
The club is full of ballas and
They pockets full grown
And all you fellas leave yo girl
With her friends

Say My Name lyrics

[1] - Say my name, say my name
When no one is around you, say baby I love you
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You actin' kinda shady, you ain't callin' me baby
Why the sudden change

Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you, say baby I love you
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me baby

She Can't Love You lyrics

[Beyonce:]
I saw your new girlfriend the other day
And i expected for her to be so much more than she was
I checked out her style, the way she smiled
The way she moved, the things she said
The way she looked at me like, "i got yo man"

[1]-She cant love you like i can
Her awful love just cant compare to what i have
She cant touch you like i do

Stay lyrics

[1:]
Baby i want for nothing just your tender sweet loving
I know youve got your things to do
But tell me what means more to you
Hanging out with me or with your boys
Sometimes i do get lonely
But no you and no one to hold me
You want so much to lay me down is that what keeps you haning around is that the only way to win your heart

[2:]
Well if i loved you a little bit longer

Sweet Sixteen lyrics

[Verse 1 Latavia:]
Ya couldnt tell little Jackie nothin
Sixteen thought she knew it all
She was searching for the love she missed yeah
And so she ran away

[Hook 1:]
Slow down
You're moving way to fast
Sixteen
There's so much for you to have
Sweet Sixteen
Do you know where you're running to
Do you know Sweet Sixteen

[Verse 2 Beyonce:]
She fell in love with a man who was so fine (so fine)

Confessions lyrics

(verse 1)
The day you pissed me off
I told Mike to pick me up
I told him you was buggin and
I don't like to fuss
He said he would look out for me

invited me in...
when we sat on the couch
he put his arms around my waist
knowin i needed lovin and then he
grabbed my face
he kissed me like a guy could never
kiss a girl before

Bills, Bills, Bills (Maurice's Xclusive Livegig Mix) lyrics

[Beyonce:]
At first we started out real cool
Taking me places I ain't never been

Your money should be handling

And now you ask to use my car (car)
Drive it all day and don't fill up the tank
And you have the audacity

Get On The Bus lyrics

(feat. Timbaland)

I don't wanna fuss with you
So I'm gonna sit out on the couch
Don't try to talk to me
'Cause boy I am locking you out
I don't wanna hear a thing
Nothin' you got to say
You should think twice
About the way you been talkin'to me
Better catch a cab or get on the bus
I ain't got no time for you
Talkin' all that junk
I'm gonna pack my stuff

Stay (Good Version) lyrics

oh oh...

Verse 1
Baby, I want from nothing
Just your tender sweet loving
I know you got your things to do
But tell me what means more to you
Hanging out with me or with your boys?
Sometime I do get lonely
With no you, no one to hold me
You want so much to lay me down
Is that what keeps you hanging around?
Is that the only way to win your heart?

Chorus

Bills Bills Bills (Trackmasters Remix) lyrics

F/ Jazz, Sporty Thievz

[Jazz]

I stay away from cats that rap

That ain't got traps

And producers that make tracks

That ain't got no plaques

I'm J to the A-Z-Z, chrome Z3

You ain't balling, you ain't rolling with me

Jazz said it

These cats ain't cheap, they broke

Take me to a flick

Can't even buy me a Coke

All them quick say you ain't gettin' nada from us

Outro (Amazing Grace...dedicated To Andretta Tillm) lyrics

Amazing Gra-ha-ha-ha-ace
How sweet (how ho-ow sweet sweet) the sound (the-e sound so-o-oundd)

I once was lost (lo-o-ost) lo-o-st (lost)
But now I'm found (whatchu say girl)
But now I'm found (i still caint feel it)
But now I'm found
Was blind but now I see

Ooooh, ooooh

'Twas Grace (twa-as grace)
