Ghetto Girl - Eric Benét, Kevin "K.D" Davis, Meshell Ndegeocello

Ghetto baby, lady

Lady

So tell me what’s up with y’all

Can you keep it real?

Let me tell you what I feel

Man, let me set your mind at ease

I’m in need of something

That I lost along the way

You know that money’s cool

But it makes my world so strange

Now I got ladies talking to me

But they ain’t got shit to say

It’s like I’ve come this far

Just to miss simpler days

I need to feel her tonight

Deeper love with honesty

I’ve seen a million girls

But there’s just one kind for me

A ghetto girl, living in a ghetto world

I like her 'cause she keeps it real

She lets me know just how she feels

A ghetto girl, living in a ghetto world

She’s the only one I need

She’s the only one for me

She won’t never leave me guessing

Always let me know the deal

You know that ghetto love

Is always on the real

She got inner city struggles

And her blood runs deep in me

So when we make love

We feel mad history

Well, I’m not trying to put nobody down

In this superficial world

But if you need deeper love

You better find you a ghetto girl

A ghetto girl, living in a ghetto world

I like her 'cause she keeps it real

She lets me know just how she feels

A ghetto girl, living in a ghetto world

She’s the only one I need

She’s the only one for me

Girl, if they tried

They would see you like I do

Hold your head up high

There’s no one above you

With you by my side, girl

There’s nothing that I can’t do

I’ve been around the world enough for me to see

Boy, you best believe, it’s going to be ghetto girls for me

So tell me what’s up with y’all

Can you keep it real?

Let me tell you what I feel

Man, let me set your mind at ease

A ghetto girl, living in a ghetto world

I like her 'cause she keeps it real

She lets me know just how she feels

A ghetto girl, living in a ghetto world

She’s the only one I need

She’s the only one for me

A ghetto girl, living in a ghetto world

I like her 'cause she keeps it real

She lets me know just how she feels

A ghetto girl, living in a ghetto world

She’s the only one I need

She’s the only one for me
