[Intro: Jermaine Dupri + TLC] I've been watching Come on, let me kick a little game to you Baby, baby, let me kick a little game to you Come on, let me kick a little game to you Baby, baby, let me kick a little game to you I've been watching you watching me And I know you want it Come on, let me kick a little game to you
[Verse 1: T-Boz] Lean against the wall, checkin' out the scenery All I see is everybody tryna get with me So I continue to play it Crazysexycool Lost all composure when I laid my eyes on you
[Pre-Chorus: Chilli] We just wanna know if you can kick some game Come with somethin' more clever than just your name See it's like this, I wanna take you home But you gotta show me that your game is on
[Hook: TLC, Chilli] I've been watchin' you, watchin' me And I know you want it But it depends on how you kick your game I've been watchin' you, watchin' me And I know you want it But it depends on how you kick your game
[Verse 2: T-Boz] Club's about to close...but you've only said a few words to me I've been waiting for a dose of your personality See I'm in the mood and if all goes right Baby, you will be, you will be going home with me tonight
[Hook: TLC, Chilli] I've been watchin' you, watchin' me And I know you want it But it depends on how you kick your game I've been watchin' you, watchin' me And I know you want it But it depends on how you kick your game
[Pre-Chorus: Chilli] We just wanna know if you can kick some game Come with somethin' more clever than just your name It's like this, I wanna take you home But you gotta show me, gotta show me that your game is on
[Hook: TLC, Chilli] I've been watchin' you, watchin' me And I know you want it But it depends on how you kick your game I've been watchin' you, watchin' me And I know you want it But it depends on how you kick your game
[Outro: Jermaine Dupri, Woman] Come on, let me kick a little game to you Baby, baby, let me kick a little game to you Come on, let me kick a little game to you Baby, baby, let me kick a little game to you
What's good? Who you kissin on baby? Who cares, you ain't tryin' to take nobody else home but me So what difference does it make? Know I'm sayin' you know I don't have none a these hookers in my video Well I mean ah hey, okay. I-I-I-I respect that but uh So like, ya know I'm sayin' Why don't you write yo number down if you won't leave with me? And then uh, we could hookup if ya know, ya know what I'm sayin
