Oh, yeah, yeah, uh 
DTP, yeah, how we do 
Call you, and you can call me
Whatever you want to do, baby
Ha, come on
Uh

Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me (you could roll with me)
I'm only one call away (if you was my baby)
Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me (you could roll with me)
I'm only one call away (if you was my lady)
Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me (you could roll with me)
I'm only one call away (if you was my baby)
Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me (you could roll with me)
I'm only one call away (if you was my lady)

It was weird how we met, huh?
She was with her mom in Bank of America
With my son cashin' a check, so I asked out of respect, uh
Would she like to explore the world of I, we can fly in my jet
Her reply was, "Yes" (can I ask you somethin'?)
I seen it in her eye, mama lookin' like all I wanted was sex
Then moved to the next (that ain't true)
But it was somethin' about this girl's style that make me feel no regrets (no regrets)
We started off casual, walks through the park (park)
Candle light dinners by dark (dark), I'm thinkin' smart (smart)
Afraid she might think I'm in a rush to touch, crush and be up
But, baby, I ain't on that stuff (I ain't on that stuff)
Dropped her off and told her call me up 
We could talk (talk) 
Conversate about political subjects, whatever thoughts
So I zoomed off thinkin' 'bout her 
My phone rang, it was her in the shower (what did she say?)
She said I couldn't do without you 
Then I said

Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me (you could roll with me) 
(If you wanna come roll with me, baby)
I'm only one call away (if you was my baby)
Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me (you could roll with me)
I'm only one call away (if you was my lady) (all you have to do is call)
Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me (you could roll with me)
I'm only one call away (if you was my baby)
(Let me take you out, yeah, yeah)

Yo, yo
The next day I'm with the fellas at the cage playin' ball (playin' ball)
Here she come with her friends, they posted up on the wall (up on the wall)
Now I'm showin' off, tryna dunk, tryna dribble
Break fast through the middle just to see her smile and giggle (smile and giggle)
Game over, I approached her with a kiss on the cheek
The homeboys lookin' at me sayin', "Lil' Howard, you weak"
But you know how that go, what I got they want
What I got I flaunt, never mess with it, please don't
Told her, "I'm goin home", she asked can she go too
I'm like, "Yeah boo, I can't see me without you"
Got there, I took a shower jumped out, she in the bed
With a see-through thong set, I looked at her said

Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me (you could roll with me) (oh, baby)
I'm only one call away (if you was my baby)
Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me (you could roll with me) (if you wanna roll)
I'm only one call away (if you was my lady) 
Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me (you could roll with me)
I'm only one call away (if you was my baby) (baby, baby)
Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me (you could roll with me, you need to recognize)
I'm only one call away (if you was my lady)

Girl, recognize game before game recognize you
You dealin' with a playa, true, now what you wanna do?
We can kick it and go puff on a blunt
Oh, you don't smoke? Grab a pint of Henn' then we can get drunk
It's up to you, I'm the man but, baby, just let me know
'Cause if you got a attitude, I could treat you just like a ho
If ya rollin' with me, baby, hop in it's enough room
We can gaze at the stars and shine like the moon (this is what I said to you, baby)
Give me a chance to show ya and a chance to know ya
Just be true and there's nothin' I won't do for ya
Some women like to play it foul
But them the kind I put in the place of a child
Don't worry be happy and smile (oh-oh)

Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me (you could roll with me) (I wanna take you out)
I'm only one call away (if you was my baby) (I wanna do everything with you, baby)
Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me (you could roll with me) (if you wanna roll with me, yeah)
I'm only one call away (if you was my lady) 
Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me (you could roll with me)
I'm only one call away (if you was my baby) (so tell me what you wanna do?)
Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me (you could roll with me) (girl, I'm only fuckin' with you)
I'm only one call away (if you was my lady) (and you know it baby, yeah)

Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me (you could roll with me)
