GOOD MAN Songtext
von Ne‐Yo

Hey DJ
Ooh-ooh-oh-oh

I just wanna be a good man, good man to you girl
That′s all I want to be
Ay, that's all I want to be baby
That′s all I want to be, baby
Said I just wanna be a good man, good man
To you girl, that's all I want to be, baby
That's all I want to be, baby
That′s all I want to be, babe

Said I just wanna pick the phone up
Every single time you call
It don′t matter where I'm is
I wanna be chillin′ with Obama
Talkin business, see your callin'
And tell him, "Hold up I gotta take this"
Let the world wait...


Wanna wear it like a medal
Tell ′em that I'm a spoken for fellow
Ladies say, "Hello", like I′m who they want to be with
I do e'rything with my left, I know you see it, trifling
Listen baby, I ain't nowhere near perfect
But I promise to promise to make it all worth it
Givin′ you the things to be the man you deservin′
Makin' sure you′re smilin' way more than you′re hurtin

Takin' my time to hear you when you′re talkin'
Remindin' you how bad you are often
Keep them legs shakin′
Makin′ love and makin' sure you understand
That it′s in my plan

Said I just wanna be a good man, good man to you, girl
That's all I want to be, baby
That′s all I want to be, baby
That's all I want to be
Said I just wanna be a good man, good man, to you, girl
That′s all I want, babe
That's all I want to be, baby
That's all I want to be, oh

Tell the truth, tell the whole damn truth
Never leavin′ out the parts I know gon′ upset you
Never doin' things that I ain′t got no business doin'
When you ′round, when you not around
I respect you


And I would never make a fool out you baby (no, no)
No, I will never make a fool out you baby (no, no)
I'm making sure you can trust me beyond a shadow of a doubt
So when them broad run up on you with my name in their mouths
You could tell ′em, "You can be gone with all that"
Girl, you know what we got is beyond all that
You know we got that real thing (real thing)
Don't be the object of some hating (hating)

But we gon' be alright, we gon′ be alright
Makin′ love after every fight
Girl, from the day I put that ring up on your hand
In front of friends and fam I had a plan

And my plan is to be a good man, good man, to you girl
That's all I want to be, hey
That′s all I want to be, baby
That's all I want to be
Said I want to be a good man, good man, to you girl
That′s all I want to be
Said that's all I want to be, baby
All I want to be, oh (oh)

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, oh, baby, oh

I wanna be a good man to you, baby
