Backyard -Lyrics-

Backyard - Always
(feat. Salt-N-Pepa) 
Do you get suspicious? 
Watch for the glances? 
Don't put your love life in the streets 
Do you get suspicious? 
Watch for the glances? 
You better take it from me 
Friends, who needs 'em? 
One can't live with 'em, can't live without 
Men, can't keep 'em 
Not when your good friend is trying to bring you down 
Down, down, down 
Do you get suspicious when they call you their girlfriend 
And you don't know them very well? 
Watch for the glances on the side to your boyfriend 
Just read the signs, I'm sure you can tell 
See somebody standing in your own backyard 
Somebody's trying to steal your man 
Don't be a fool and let them get that far 
You better stop them while you can 
Hold on to your man 
Hold, hold 
Hold on to him 
(Hold on) 
Hold, hold 
Trends, they feed 'em 
They all jump on it, on whatever's hot 
But girlfriends be careful 
Because your man might be just what they ain't got, no 
You should be cautious if you've found you a good man 
Don't put your love life in the streets 
There is a shortage of good love from a good man 
So watch your back, you better take it from me 
See somebody standing in your own backyard 
Somebody's trying to steal your man 
(They'll try and steal your man) 
Don't be a fool and let them get that far (no fool) 
You better stop them while you can 
(Stop them while you can) 
Hold, hold 
Hold on to him 
(Hold on) 
Hold, hold 
You better take it from me 
Don't be no fool 
Oh, no 
Yo, you better watch out, she's out to take your guy 
And I can see why, he's fly even I 
Had my eye on him for a long time 
Yo Pep, (What?) kick that rhyme 
Don't be dumb, all the girlies want some 
He's paid, he's not a bum 
Know where I'm coming from? 
Understand she has a plan 
And that's right, she'll take your man 
So you better hold on tight 
She'll take your man, and you know that I'm right 
She'll take your man, girls be on your best guard 
She'll take your man, right from your own backyard 
Oh, if you see somebody standing in your own backyard 
They're out to get your man, girl don't you let them in 
Don't you be a fool and let them get that far 
So stop them while you can, they've got a master plan 
See somebody standing in your own backyard 
Somebody's trying to steal your man 
You better take it from me 
Don't be a fool and let them get that far 
(Don't be no fool) 
You better stop them while you can 
Cuz when you snooze, you lose 
That's when they make their move 
So stop them while you can 
It's just a matter of time 
And girl that ain't no lie 
They're out to take your man 
Hold on to your man 
Hold on, hold on, hold on to your man 
Hold on, hold on, take it from me 
Hold on, hold on, hold on, can't you see? 
Hold on, hold on, can't you see? 
Do you get suspicious? 
Watch for the glances? 
Don't put your love life in the streets 
Do you get suspicious? 
Watch for the glances? 
You better take it from me 
Oh, if you see somebody standing in your own backyard 
They're out to get your man, girl don't you let them in 
Don't you be a fool and let them get that far 
So stop them while you can, they've got a master plan 
See somebody standing in your own backyard 
Somebody's trying to steal your man 
You better take it from me 
Don't be a fool and let them get that far 
(Don't be no fool) 
You better stop them while you can 
Cuz when you snooze, you lose 
That's when they make their move 
So stop them while you can 
It's just a matter of time 
And girl that ain't no lie 
They're out to take your man 
Hold on to your man 
Hold on, hold on, hold on to your man 
Hold on, hold on, take it from me 
Hold on, hold on, hold on, can't you see? 
Hold on, hold on, can't you see
