How We Do by Blackstreet Lyrics
[Spoken Intro: Teddy Riley]
You know, I don't even know why you actin' funny
Why you let them get in your head like that?
Or they just gon' hate on me?
[Verse 1: Eric Williams]
They call you crazy 'cause I'm never home
They say you're too young, girl, to spend your life alone
But they just don't know, they can only assume
'Bout what I do, it's about me and you
[Chorus: Blackstreet]
You and I, we can make it
If your girlfriends stop hating
I dont wanna have to let you go
Girl, I'm down with you even if they don't think so
They don't know how we do
[Verse 2: Chauncey "Black" Hannibal]
Look at me funny
'Cause of what they say
Girl, all of the lies and things there tellin' you
You should never let them in your head, no
'Cause they just don't know, they can only assume
'Bout what I do, it's about me and you, you
[Chorus: Blackstreet]
You and I, we can make it
If your girlfriends stop hating (Stop hating, baby, yeah)
I dont wanna have to let you go
Baby, I'm down with you even if they don't think so (Yeah)
They don't know how we do (How we do)
[Post-Chorus: Teddy Riley]
Yo, we gon' take it to the bridge
Blackstreet
Mark, help me sing
[Bridge: Mark Middleton & (Blackstreet)]
(What 'bout the years?) They don't care
The house and kids? They don't care
(The struggle and tears?) They don't care 'bout what we been through
(They dont wanna know) 'Bout the good I do
(How I hold it down) For the kids and you
(All they wanna do is) Tear us apart (Tear us apart)
(Lalalalala) Tell them, baby, tell them
(Lalalalala) Tell them how you feel
(Lalalalala, la, la) Oh, oh, yeah
(Lalalalala) Hold it down, girl
(Lalalalala) Let 'em know, let 'em know
(Lalalalala, la, la) Whoa-oh-oh, talkin' 'bout you and I, baby
[Outro: Blackstreet]
You and I, we can make it
Girl, we're gonna make it
I don't wanna ever let you go
This is how we do
You and I, we can make it
Girl, we're gonna make it
I don't wanna ever let you go
This is how we do
I'm down with you even if they don't think so
They don't know how we do
You know, I don't even know why you actin' funny
Why you let them get in your head like that?
Or they just gon' hate on me?
