Best Dress Lyrics

Hey, hey, hey, hey



We gon' get it poppin' now girl

Get your best dress on tonight

Once we start it ain't no stoppin' girl

Get your best dress on tonight



This is for the girls

With all those ghetto curves

But we gon' get to poppin' now girl

Get your best dress on tonight



54-11's poppin' wheelies front of Willyburgers

Candy apple M3's, slidin' out gently

Rollin up in Bentleys, Tyson was the champ then

Right after the Rooftop, years before the Hamptons



You was a ghetto queen and a diamond in the rough

You was so beautiful and the world was so rough

Your man was locked up cause the cops popped up

You dropped out of school on top of that you knocked up



He was yo' crush, you was his crutch

He'll be gone a dime and it's hard to stay in touch

Your moms say you stupid but you love him so much

Now it's, broken dreams and broken Beemers in the dust



Standin' up on a crowded bus, for college courses

Stay on course when it gets rough, you never lost it

Stay strong baby trust, you'll be back flossin'

Diamond studs and linen crush keep your head up



We gon' get it poppin' now girl

Get your best dress on tonight

Once we start it ain't no stoppin' girl

Get your best dress on tonight



This is for the girls

With all those ghetto curves

But we gon' get to poppin' now girl

Get your best dress on tonight



Her boyfriend's comin' through with them hickeys on his neck

He claims he's lovin' her but never shows her no respect

All she knows is neglect, a lifetime of stress

Big momma, huh momma, now lil' momma is next



You can see the effects of gettin' treated incorrect

'Cause she let the cycle continue, make excuses for his steps

Her girlfriends tried to warn her, all he wanted was the sex

Once he get it, then he gone, then it's on to somethin' fresh



Somethin' new, nothin' borrowed, nothin' blue, no weddin' dress

But that's aight, you still young, you got your lifetime left

You gotta leave all that alone, find yourself

There's no love until you love you remind yourself



We gon' get it poppin' now girl

Get your best dress on tonight

Once we start it ain't no stoppin' girl

Get your best dress on tonight



This is for the girls

With all those ghetto curves

But we gon' get to poppin' now girl

Get your best dress on tonight



To all my ghetto girls all around the world

You know the ones with the weaves and the Shirley Temple curls

Keep fightin', uh baby girl keep fightin', yeah, yeah

To all my ghetto queens survivin' by all means



There's a rock and a hard place you somewhere in between

Keep fightin', uh baby girl keep fightin', yeah

To all my single mommas you been strugglin' with drama

Doin' what you gotta but still keepin' your honor

Keep fightin', uh, baby girl keep fightin', yeah yeah, sing it



We gon' get it poppin' now girl

Get your best dress on tonight

Once we start it ain't no stoppin' girl

Get your best dress on tonight



This is for the girls

With all those ghetto curves

But we gon' get to poppin' now girl

Get your best dress on tonight



Get your best dress on tonight

Get your best dress on tonight

Get your best dress on tonight
