My girl can't stand her, she swears we're (messin)
My boy said if I ain't messin I'm (fessin)
People of the world, let me teach this (lesson)
A girl's not made for only caressin

[ Romeo JD ]
When I'm feelin kinda down and I'm mad at the world
I just shoot Uptown to pick up my homegirl
Cause she knows how to make me cool on out
There ain't nothin in the world we can't talk about
She loves me like a sister and I love her like a brother
Yes, we're in love but no, we're not lovers
When we're walkin Downtown we hold hands and chill
If anybody tries to diss her, then I will get ill
Cause I protect her to the end, won't let nobody (hurt her)
If she ever needs a friend then I can never de(-sert her)
We're always straight cause neither one of us is phony
She's my homie and I'm her Rome
There might be a time we're playin husband and wife
To get the discount tickets on a honeymoon fight
On a round-trip journey all around the world
No foolin, I'll be coolin with my homegirl
[ both ]
My homegirl, she's my homegirl
My homegirl, she's my homegirl
My homegirl, she's my homegirl
My homegirl
Yo, what's up?
My homegirl, she's my homegirl
My homegirl, she's my homegirl
My homegirl, she's my homegirl
My homegirl
