  • Yeah
    You know what
    I like the playettes
    No diggity, no doubt, uh
    Play on playette, play on playette
    Yo Street, drop the verse

    Shorty get down, good Lord
    Baby got 'em up open all over town
    Strictly biz, she don't play around
    Cover much grounds, got game by the pound
    Getting paid is her forte
    Each and every day, true player way
    I can't get her out of my mind (wow)
    I think about the girl all the time (wow, wow)
    East side to the west side
    Pushin' phat rides, it's no surprise
    She got tricks in the stash
    Stacking up the cash
    Fast when it comes to the gas
    By no means average
    She's on when she's got to have it
    Baby, you're a perfect ten, I wanna get in
    Can I get down, so I can win

    I like the way you work it
    No diggity
    I got to bag it up (bag it up)
    I like the way you work it
    No diggity
    I got to bag it up (bag it up, girl)
    I like the way you work it
    No diggity
    I got to bag it up (bag it up)
    I like the way you work it
    No diggity
    I got to bag it up

    She's got class and style
    Street knowledge by the pound
    Baby never act wild, very low key on the profile
    Catchin' feelings is a no
    Let me tell you how it goes
    Herb's the word, spin's the verbs
    Lovers, it curves, so freak what you heard
    Rollin' with the phatness
    You don't even know what the half is
    You've got to pay to play
    Just for shorty bang-bang, to look your way
    I like the way you work it
    Trump tight all day, every day
    You're blowing my mind, maybe in time
    Baby, I can get you in my ride

    I like the way you work it
    No diggity
    I got to bag it up (bag it up)
    I like the way you work it
    No diggity
    I got to bag it up (oh yeah, baby)
    I like the way you work it
    No diggity
    I got to bag it up (bag it up, babe)
    I like the way you work it (oh yeah)
    No diggity
    I got to bag it up (hey)

    Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo (hey yo, that girl looks good)
    Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo (play on, play on, player)
    Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo (you're my kind of girl)
    Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo (hey yo)

    'Cause that's my peeps and we rolls deep
    Flyin' first class from New York City to Blackstreet
    What you know about me, not a motherfuckin' thing
    Cartier wooded frames sported by my shorty
    As for me, icy gleaming pinky diamond ring
    We be's the baddest clique up on the scene
    Ain't you getting bored with these fake ass broads
    I shows and proves, no doubt, I be taking you, so
    Please excuse, if I come across rude
    That's just me and that's how a playettes got to be
    Stay kickin' game with a capital G
    Ask the peoples on my block, I'm as real as can be
    Word is bond, faking jacks never been me
    So, Teddy, pass the word to your nigga Chauncey
    I'll be sending the call, let's say around three thirty
    Queen Pen and Blackstreet, it's no diggity (no diggity, no doubt, baby)

    I like the way you work it
    No diggity
    I got to bag it up (girl, you got it goin' on)
    I like the way you work it
    No diggity (no diggity)
    I got to bag it up (play on, play on, play on)
    I like the way you work it
    No diggity
    I got to bag it up
    I like the way you work it
    No diggity
    I got to bag it up (get up)

    Yeah
    Play on (play on)
    Play on (play on)
    'Cause I like it (right)
    No diggity, no doubt, yeah
    We out, we out (right)
    We out, we out Writer/s: Bill Withers, Chauncey Hannibal, Lynise Walters, Richard Vick, Teddy Riley, William Stewart
