Ma, I Don’t Love Her Lyrics

[Intro: Pharrell]
I wanna love you girl
Just wanna love you girl
Please let me love you girl
I just wanna love you girl
C'mon, I wanna love you girl
Just wanna love you girl
Let me love you girl
Let me...

[Verse 1: Pusha T]
When we met, I was talkin' that game, parkin' that thang
Since then between us, a lot of things changed
Now it's like the world got a whole different name
I can't stop chicks from sayin' my name
Most of it's lies, if not, don't be surprised
You knew I was ballin' when I met you
But really, I started layin' low just to net you
I'm raw as hell yet can't deny that you special
These girls can't either, winter, his and her Vivas
Summer, his and her Louie sneakers
You don't think that bother people?
Guess again, you even need to check your friends
Sayin' that I cheat, right, maybe with my heat
Got a pearl handled chrome thing that I call Sweets
I greet with her, creep with her, even eat with her
Late nights under my sheets, yeah, I sleep with her
But thats it
[Chorus: Clipse & Faith Evans]
Look, ma, I don't love her
Don't listen to her words
She tryna split up us lovebirds
But that's not it
Now you see me buyin' her whips and shit? (No)
You see me sendin' her on trips and shit? (No)
If the answers no, don't forget (How's she know you then?)
I don't know

[Verse 2: Malice]
If I don't know I don't know, let's not go that road
I don't know who she is, don't care who told
Look, stop flippin', no need to explode
I seen the number in the pager, I don't know that code
In the streets too much? C'mon, that's absurd
Gettin' no complaints when I be flippin' them birds
Your girls just talk 'bout this, that and the third
Believe half what you see, none of what you heard
You askin' me who's her, I'm askin' who's mink fur
With that rock on her hand makin' their eyes blurred
Could that be you plus who cop every gem?
Who spend like I spend? Then act like it then
Got the dream home and we settled in it
Our lives too perfect, that's why they meddle in it
Now, just chalk it up as just part of the game
You know who I'm about, who got part of my name?
[Chorus: Clipse & Faith Evans]
Look, ma, I don't love her
Don't listen to her words
She tryna split up us lovebirds
But that's not it
Now you see me buyin' her whips and shit? (No)
You see me sendin' her on trips and shit? (No)
If the answers no, don't forget (How's she know you then?)
I don't know

[Bridge: Faith Evans & Pusha T]
Do you love me babe? (Sho' you right)
You thinkin' of me babe? (Well, at least tonight)
I bet you'd tell me anything (Yeah, that's right)
Just to be with me (Yep and tonight's the night)
Do you love me babe? (Sho' you right)
You thinkin' of me babe? (Well, at least tonight)
I bet you'd tell me anything (Yeah, that's right)
Just to be with me (Yep and tonight's the night)

[Verse 3: Malice]
I'm not most men, my heart truer than theirs
Of course your girls hate, our whips newer than theirs
We hardly fight, arguments way fewer than theirs
Even down to the ice, look, bluer than theirs
What they gon' tell us about us, huh?
What they gon' talk 'bout without us, huh?
The envy got 'em speakin' loosely
Tell 'em walk in your shoes but first let 'em know they Gucci
[Verse 4: Pusha T]
And even if I did twist her, I promise I didn't kiss her
Wasn't shit touchy feely
Grudge on the floor like Mister did to Celie, no respect shown

My homies laugh while she talk dirty on the speaker phone
Now don't you start, I spared your heart
If you ain't see it, I didn't do it, ain't I played my part?
Bricks, chicks, whips, chips, that just go with the grind
What else do you want from me? To say it? Fine

[Chorus: Clipse & Faith Evans]
Look, ma, I don't love her
Don't listen to her words
She tryna split up us lovebirds
But that's not it
Now you see me buyin' her whips and shit? (No)
You see me sendin' her on trips and shit? (No)
If the answers no, don't forget (How's she know you then?)
I don't know

[Bridge: Faith Evans & Pusha T]
Do you love me babe? (Sho' you right)
You thinkin' of me babe? (Well, at least tonight)
I bet you'd tell me anything (Yeah, that's right)
Just to be with me (Yep and tonight's the night)
Do you love me babe? (Sho' you right)
You thinkin' of me babe? (Well, at least tonight)
I bet you'd tell me anything (Yeah, that's right)
Just to be with me (Yep and tonight's the night)

[Outro: Clipse & Faith Evans]
That's not it

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
