Is It The Way (Live) Lyrics
Jill Scott
Lyrics
"The Way"
Woke up this morning with a smile on my face
Jumped out of bed, took a shower, dressed, cleaned up my place
Made me some breakfast, toast, 2 scrambled eggs, grits
Grabbed my keys, grabbed my purse, grabbed my jacket
Off to work, beaming all the way down 3rd
Is it the way you love me baby?
Is it the way you love me baby?
(Yeah)
Four thirty, can't wait to get home
Nah, girl I got somethang else to do
(Damn Jill, don't be frontin' on your girls for real)
Go 'head, really get your groove on
Cause tonight my man's coming through
(Oh word)
We gonna have to connect some other time
As much as I like to shake my thang on the dance floor
I got another nasty, freaky just right way in mind
Tonight I'm gonna beat the high score
Is it the way you love me baby?
(Yeah)
Is it the way you love me baby?
(Baby)
Is it the way you love me baby?
(Is it, is it the way)
Is it the way you love me baby?
