One Mo’ Gin Lyrics
[Intro]
It sure is good to see you again
Oh-oh, oh
Oh, no, oh, no, no
No, oh, no
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
I know some things have changed since the last I've seen you
Some was good, some for the bad, baby, bad, baby
All and all, I can't complain, that's what I've been through, baby
But seeing you reminds me of the precious times we've had (Huh)
[Chorus]
And I wondered all this time 'bout how you been
And I hoped by chance, I'd see you once again
I'd love to kiss your lips, baby, once again
I long to hold you tight, girl, one mo' gin
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh-oh (Uh)
[Verse 2]
I know you got someone and I got somebody too (Huh)
But I'm unhappy and I miss the shit we used to do
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I miss your smile, your mouth, your laughter, baby (Huh)
Never bumped into your kind before or after
(And I'm wonderin', baby)
It sure is good to see you again
Oh-oh, oh
Oh, no, oh, no, no
No, oh, no
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
I know some things have changed since the last I've seen you
Some was good, some for the bad, baby, bad, baby
All and all, I can't complain, that's what I've been through, baby
But seeing you reminds me of the precious times we've had (Huh)
[Chorus]
And I wondered all this time 'bout how you been
And I hoped by chance, I'd see you once again
I'd love to kiss your lips, baby, once again
I long to hold you tight, girl, one mo' gin
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh-oh (Uh)
[Verse 2]
I know you got someone and I got somebody too (Huh)
But I'm unhappy and I miss the shit we used to do
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I miss your smile, your mouth, your laughter, baby (Huh)
Never bumped into your kind before or after
(And I'm wonderin', baby)
[Chorus]
(And I'm wonderin', baby)
And I wondered all this time 'bout how you been (Oh, oh)
(Said I've been wonderin')
And I hoped by chance I'd see you once again (How you been, girl?)
(Would it be alright?)
I'd love to kiss your lips, baby, once again (Kiss you, baby, yeah)
(Oh-oh, yeah, baby, baby)
I love to hold you tight, girl, one mo' gin (Gin)
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah (Mm)
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh (Hey)
Ooh-ooh, yeah-yeah-yeah
[Verse 3]
I know you gotta be gettin' back to your own thing (Oh-oh-oh, you got your own thing)
(Baby)
Baby, you got yours, I got mine
I hope you know that you could call me, girl, if things change (Yeah, yeah)
And if you wanna, we could catch up on some lost time
[Chorus]
(And I'm wonderin', baby)
And I wondered all this time 'bout how you been (Oh, oh)
(Said I've been wonderin')
And I hoped by chance I'd see you once again (How you been, girl?)
(And would you mind if I kiss you, baby? Oh yeah)
I'd love to kiss your lips, baby, once again (Yeah, yeah)
I love to hold you tight, girl, one mo' gin (Gin)
(And I'm wonderin', baby)
And I wondered all this time 'bout how you been (Oh, oh)
(Said I've been wonderin')
And I hoped by chance I'd see you once again (How you been, girl?)
(Would it be alright?)
I'd love to kiss your lips, baby, once again (Kiss you, baby, yeah)
(Oh-oh, yeah, baby, baby)
I love to hold you tight, girl, one mo' gin (Gin)

About
Genius Annotation
“One Mo' Gin,” with a sonic similarity to someone stirring a humongous pot of gumbo somewhere in Haiti, is a vaguely Prince-inspired musing that finds D'Angelo singing to “the one that got away.” Amidst a bass line as lazy as D'Angelo’s vocal delivery is a wail of what appears to be a distorted organ with a sprinkling of D’s trademark electric piano wizardry.
“One mo'gin” is a contracted way of saying more and again.
