South Side lyrics

South Side by Ashanti

(Verse 1A: Lloyd)
Tell yah daddy stop his hatin'
Cause I be wearing braids and rockin jerseys daily,
But that dont mean Im thuggin though.
He dont want me with yah, but I aint tryna hear it though,
Not tryna hear it though.

(Verse 1B: Ashanti)
But I know that if he knew yah, he would understand yah.
Know that youre my man and you would never hurt me, no.
Let me come and see you so that we can be alone, alone.

(Bridge: Lloyd and Ashanti)
(Lloyd:) Baby I know a place that we can go and be alone.
(Ashanti:) As long as you make sure that you safely get me home.
(Lloyd:) Dont worry baby

(Hook: Lloyd [and Ashanti])
(Lloyd:) Meet me at the south side, get you home by midnight,
Make sure that your daddy just dont know (Ashanti: daddy just dont know).
Ill put you in the hood bug, I know what Im doin,
Cause thats where well be eating on the low (Ashanti: eating on the low).
Meet me at the south side, baby we can go hide,
Knowin that mah boys gon have my back (Ashanti: yeah-eeh-yeah).
Only at the south side girl (Ashanti: southside, eh-eeh-eh),
South side.

(Verse 2A: Lloyd)
Girl, Ill know that we can make it, cause we wont let em break it.
I dont care whos wit it, it's you and me against the world.
Tell me those three words that lets me know youre still my girl,
Oh baby, yeah!

(Verse 2B: Ashanti)
Ooh, I swear Ill never leave you.
(Why) people have lied to yah?
But by your side Ill show yah, the way a girl needs to roll.
You dont need a lot of money; Im ready come pick me up (pick me up).

(Bridge: Lloyd and Ashanti)
(Lloyd:) Baby I know a place that we can go and be alone.
(Ashanti:) Long as you make sure that you safely get me home!
(Lloyd:) Dont worry baby…

(Hook: Lloyd [and Ashanti])
(Lloyd:) Meet me at the south side, get you home by midnight (Ashanti: midnight!),
Make sure that your daddy just dont know (Ashanti: ohhh, no-no!).
Ill put you in the hoodbug, I know what Im doin,
Cause thats where well be eating on the low (Ashanti: eating on the low, ohh!).

Meet me at the south side, baby we can go hide,
Knowin that mah boys gon have my back (Ashanti: we can go hide, babe).
Only at the south side girl (Ashanti: yeah-eeh-yeah),
