## Lyrics

**Lyrics**
[Intro: Ab-Soul]

Uh

[Verse 1: Ab-Soul]

She say she ain't a gold digger, but she like nice things

Money over bitches is the song I sing

But when I'm done recordin' and the cameras off

I'll probably blow a whole bag on the baddest broad

I know the difference 'tween a square and a ho

Even the ones caught in the middle

Sometime, the blade look like backstage of the show

It's complex, but it could all be so simple

And I ain't sayin' I'm a Don Juan or somethin'

I'm the farthest from it, but I'm familiar with the art of seduction

I read the *Iceberg Chronicle*s and I promise you

I don't wear my hair like Goldie for nothin'

The trick is to know is if you trickin' or treatin', though

Do she want you for you or what you could do?

Will the honey stay when the money goes?

I don't know, ask Winnie the Pooh, yo

[Chorus: Ab-Soul, *Ambré*]

She only love me when I don't say no

She only love me when I don't say no

She only love me when I don't say no

She only love me when I don't say no

I won't say it

*You've been waitin' all day*

*Now that you got me, what you gon' do with it?*

*What you gon' do with it?*

[Verse 2: Ab-Soul]

Herbie, the love bug, is you ridin' or what, love?

The wine is old, the night is young

Your face is beat, your braids are fresh

Didn't have time to wax, but you shaved your best

You thick as thieves, you done stole my heart

Gettin' me hard, I don't care what your intentions are

She say I got a beautiful dick

I make her uterus do unusual shit, yeah

I knew it wasn't a lie

'Cause, for a second, I thought I was on a waterslide

Felt a twitch in her thigh, that look in her eye

You know you ain't doin' your job if she don't say, "Oh, my God"

She fucked some n\*\*\*as I know

I fucked some bitches she know

But we gon' keep it on the d-low, as far as we know

I pray there ain't a zenith to how far we grow

Just keepin' it a C-note, I hope she don't

[Chorus: Ab-Soul, *Ambré*]

Only love me when I don't say no

She only love me when I don't say no

She only love me when I don't say no

She only love me when I don't say no

I won't say it

*You've been waitin' all day*

*Now that you got me, what you gon' do with it?*

*What you gon' do with it?*

[Post-Chorus: Ambré]

Since you got time, don't waste it

Nah, don't waste it

I really love your patience

You've been waitin' all day

You should come get your reward, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

[Outro: Ambré]

Yeah, you've been waitin' all day

You should come get your reward, oh (*Herbert*)

*Don't pour no more of that DeLeon*

*Because your ass gon' wanna have sex*

*And it's gon' take, like, two hours*

*And I gotta get up and go to work in the morning*

*And I do not have time for all of that*
