lyrics
Lace up my heels
Lips painted to the Gawdess above
Unbreakable nets to catch the weight of the world
Don’t let the soft skin fool ya- i’ma beast
Come and get’chu some love
And when I lay the gift on ya
Put some respect on my name
Never confuse it- I’ma a child of the oldest of games
Some might call me mama or Queen, but one thing remains
Put the money in my hand and don’t trip
Baby, it’s all the same
I been around since the old days
And ain’t goin’ nowhere- baby I’m stayin
Don’t hate the player, don’t hate the game
Cuz I done worked to hard to get my reign
Said I ain’t going nowhere, baby I’m stayin
I been around since the old days
Lift up that chin
Black auntie come to round up my fam
Some only here to keep the roof over their head
Don’t let a mu’fu ever convince you that they betta than
Now some of us here for the fire- for the heat- to explode,
Some of us here cause we can bear the weight of the load
And you can call me mama- call me queen
But one thing remains
Put the money in my hand and don’t trip
Baby it’s all the same
I been around since the old days
And ain’t goin’ nowhere- baby I’m stayin
Don’t hate the player, don’t hate the game
Cuz I done worked to hard to get my reign
Said I ain’t going nowhere, baby I’m stayin
I been around since the old days
Put some respect on my name
Put some respect on my name
(Oo put some respect on my name)
Put some respect on my name
(Give us our protections)
Put some respect on my name
(Give us that recognition)
Put some respect on my name
(For that sexual liberation)
Put some respect on my name
(One of the oldest of professions)
Put some respect on my name
(Don’t hate the playa or the game)
Put some respect on my name
(Put some respect on my name)
I been around since the old days
And ain’t goin’ nowhere- baby I’m stayin
Don’t hate the player, don’t hate the game
Cuz I done worked to hard to get my reign
Said I ain’t going nowhere, baby I’m stayin
I been around since the old days
