See he's my property
And any girl that touch
I might just call your bluff
'Cause I don't give a f*ck
Who are you to call my cell
Oh I'ma wish you well
'Cause any girl that tried has fell

Where my girls at
From the front to back
Well is you feelin' that
Put one hand up
Can you repeat that
Tryin' to take my man
See I don't need that
So don't play yourself

Where my girls at
From the front to back
Well is you feelin' that
Put one hand up
Can you repeat that
Tryin' to take my man
See I don't need that

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Don't you violate me
'Cause I'ma make ya hate me
If you decide to mess with mine
Shrunk you down to size
Make ya realize
You done messed up this time

You must learn the rules
Don't come close to
Anything that belongs to me
He is my
My property
So you must leave

(Repeat till end)
