I'M OLD ENOUGH
Boy ya didn't say that last nightA closed case two years ago
Now there seems to be a problem
What's up mister?
Naw ya tell me
I'm old enough
Mama said I was grown
Daddy told me to get the hell up
Say boy, I'm old enough!
Thought we were tight enough to fix this
Oh, so ya find the cradles and rob 'em?
But what ya seem to forget I'm all woman
I'm old enough
Buck wild and rough
Old enough baby
Made to order
Arrested for being disorderly
So what does that make you
Not bold enough?
I'm old enough!
Man ya didn't say that this morning
Said I mixed easy as box cake
Ya use to lick the bowl, now what?
What ya wanna do boy?
No you tell me first
I'm old enough
Grandma married at fifteen
My grandfather worked two full-time jobs
Yo mister I'm old enough!
Thought we were tight enough to fix this
Oh, so ya find the cradles and rob 'em?
But what ya seem to forget I'm all woman
I'm old enough
Buck wild and rough
Old enough baby
Made to order
Arrested for being disorderly
So what does that make you
Not bold enough?
I'm old enough!
Enough is enough
Cause I'm old enough
Are you bold enough?
I'm old enough
Old enough boy
Say I'm old enough!
