andquot;take me back, take me back, take me back...andquot; - sample repeated throughout song
[ghostface killah]
yo, yo, yo, aiyo you brought me on jerry just to take you back
after that bullshit you put me through a couple months back
that wasnand't right, call the cops on me, and told them i had it like
andquot;yeah, pop the trunk, he got dope and gunsandquot;
check for warrants, that son of a bitch on the run, i know
three of his niggas got life, he use to roll with
and told and'em i bodied an upcoming basketball star
once i heard that, i fell out the cop car, real hard
you bugged out, and thugged out, wanted me to take you back
that could never happen, iand'm sorry
no disrespect, but you a psycho, honey
got that s.s.i. money, and you start actinand' funny
shrimpand's every night, ordering steaks
them jumbo joints, them shits cost a buck 50 for eight
and when you told me your merlo, need more grapes
i said andquot;honey, you never had wine before!andquot;
and if you did, thatand's not how you act at all
and no... thatand's not how we rock in theodore

[jacki-o]
back to them days, when the yayand' was beinand' frontinand' to you
hundred thousand dollar shopping sprees wasnand't nothinand' to you
when three was a crowd... but i dealt with it
and your sex wasnand't wild.... but i dealt with it
i always felt shitted, you should of take me back
the girl that introduced you to boy, and helped you open your stacks
i got you in south connects, for the hard grind
thatand's why i took mine off the top, for the hard time
you know you need me in the streets, to help you run things
and if you catch a case, you got it wrong, iand'mma pawn rings
iand'm your lady boo, thatand's what iand'm suppose to do
i know when you was coppinand' my coupe, that you was coppinand' two
i know when you got me the red one, that she got the blue
but the way i chew on you, you should of got me two
now you got me in the kitchen, with your fryinand' on
tell me that you gonand' move with me, i know you lyinand', dog
who loves you baby? nobody like jacki-o
cook, clean, break up your weed, and i give you nasty throat
what you actinand' for? get back in the door
come on, home, where you belong, letand's get it on
[chorus]
[ghostface killah]
yo, you know i always love you, i never meant to hurt you
even the stressand'll work you, i miss your old perfume
promise never curse you, i want you in my circle
honey right by my side where i keep my herbals
we both agree on no more fighting, weand'll just have a verbal
the manand'll treat you like a queen, i will bird you
mother and father birthed you, if i have to hit you
then damn, i might as well leave, cuz i donand't deserve you
watch from you face, when you sleep, let the heat disturb you
fiendinand' from the magic wand, when she and'nique and serve you
take me please, take me with ease
take me back, god damn, and scrape marks on my knees
and'member the first time you made my key
you was drunk, you went behind a tree and peeand'd
i miss shit like that, and all of the times
