Lyrics
My baby likes me fresh in my white kicks
I’m sweet like cherry pie & he likes this
I buy him drinks & he buys me cigarettes
He thinks that we’re a little bit like Romeo & Juliet
Throw me round like a hot potato
If you want the butter then say so
If it’s wrong, b-but it’s okay though
It’s okay though
Baby, ghetto love
Mama know’s I like the bad boys
Baby, ghetto love
Just like daddy was a bad boy
Ooooo, ahhh,
Take me out tonight
Baby save my life
Ooohhh
Take me out tonight
Baby save my life
True love, true love true love
It never dies, it never dies, it never dies
True love, true love, true love
It never dies, it never dies
My baby likes me fresh in my white kicks
He thinks it’s a little like “Hair, tits, lips, zips”
It doesn’t matter that I do my lipstick
All day long, all day long
My baby likes me fresh in my white kicks
Yeah, Bonnie & Clyde, we're just like them
He thinks a little like we're polka dot & dress up
He like my hair long
Baby, ghetto love
You know no one loves you better as…
Baby, ghetto love
You can be if you know better
Ooooo, oooo
Take me out tonight
Baby save my life
Ooooo, oooo
Take me out tonight
Baby save my life
Save my life, save my life
Save my life, save my life
Save my life, save my life
Save my life, save my life
Cause true love never dies
Swear I won't, once I see you when I die
True love never dies
Baby ghetto love
Mama knows I like them bad boys
Baby, ghetto love
Just like daddy was a bad boy
True love, true love, true love
It never dies, it never dies, it never dies
True love, true love, true love
It never dies, it never dies, it never dies
