Gotta keep it on the down low, I'll never let my mama know

Only call him on my cell phone, only see him after dark

I met him on the 6 train, just the way he said my name

The brotha had a lot a game and he opened from the start

He scoops me up in his ride, Friday about a quarter to 9

So fly and so fine, and I'm so glad that he's all mine

There's a thug in my life, how'ma gonna tell my mama

She gonna say it ain't right, but he's so good to me

There's a thug in my life, and it's gonna cause crazy drama

I'm gonna see him tonight, I'm gonna give him everything

I know his crew is kinda shady

Sometimes it gets kinda crazy

But he treats me like a lady, gives me everything I need

I don't care who's hating on me 'cause every night he's waiting on me

He's got mad personality, a side they never see

My friends tell me to slow down, but everytime that he's around

My heart don't lock down, I feel love and I'm so proud

There's a thug in my life, how'ma gonna tell my mama

She gonna say it ain't right, but he's so good to me

There's a thug in my life, and it's gonna cause crazy drama

I'm gonna see him tonight, I'm gonna give him everything

T-H-U-G in ya life baby

One in a million that's what you are to me

And I know your friends say I'm rough

But I still got that tender touch just to make u giggle and blush

But ya mom does not approve of us

She needs to be a lot more understanding

'Cause all I have for you is thug loving and loving that's all I'm giving

Mama don't worry, I'm not in a hurry

I won't disappoint you, I won't make you sorry

He's the one for me

We'll be together from now 'till forever

I know it's the real thing if you don't whatever

And I know it's meant to be

There's a thug in my life, how'ma gonna tell my mama

She gonna say it ain't right, but he's so good to me

There's a thug in my life, and it's gonna cause crazy drama

I'm gonna see him tonight, I'm gonna give him everything

Mama dont worry, I'm not in a hurry

I won't disappoint you, I won't make you sorry
