[Intro:]
[Ashanti:]
Always there when you call.
[Ja Rule:]
Buckshots, ha!
[Ashanti:]
Always on time,
Gave you my, baby, be mine.
Always there when you call, always on time,
Gave you my, baby.
[Chorus: Ashanti]
Baby, I'm not always there when you call, but I'm always on time,
And I gave you my all, now, baby, be mine.
I'm not always there when you call, but I'm always on time,
And I gave you my all, now, baby, be mine.
[Verse 1: Ja Rule]
C'mon and get a piece of this late-night lover,
You know, the one that swing dick like no other.
I know, I got a lot of things I need to explain,
But, baby, you know the name, and love is about pain,
So, stop the complaints and drop the order restraints.
Our sex life's a game, so back me down in the paint,
‘Cause I can't wait no more,
‘Cause it's about a quarter past three and shorty's eyein' me.
I got the Bentley valeted,
And I'm just outside of Jersey, past the Palisades,
And I'd love to see that ass in boots and shades,
Throw down on the bed while I'm yankin' your braids,
Thug style, you never thought I'd make you smile
While I'm smackin' your ass and fuckin' you all wild.
But we share something so rare, but who cares? You care.
[Chorus: Ashanti]
Baby, I'm not always there when you call, but I'm always on time,
And I gave you my all, now, baby, be mine.
I'm not always there when you call, but I'm always on time,
And I gave you my all, now, baby, be mine.
[Verse 2: Ja Rule]
Girl, get a grip, c'mon, pull it together,
It's only a sunshower, we been through worse weather,
Like the stormy nights you wrote a Dear Ja letter,
And took my Benz and keyed and cut the leather.
Bitch, you know better, we live M.O.B.,
Money over bitches, Murder, I-N-C.
I got two or three hoes for every V,
And I keep 'em drugged up off that ecstasy,
I'm a playground legend like Kirkland Pee Wee,
Name a nigga in the league got more game than me.
I play hard, there's so many women I fathered,
Meet 'em with scars and send 'em home hot and bothered,
Truth or dare, this life ain't apparently fair,
And a love with no glare is a crystal stare,
But we share something so rare, but who cares? You care.
[Chorus: Ashanti]
Baby, I'm not always there when you call, but I'm always on time,
And I gave you my all, now, baby, be mine.
I'm not always there when you call, but I'm always on time,
And I gave you my all, now, baby, be mine.
[Verse 3: Ja Rule]
Oh, I'm feeli'g like you livin' a double life
‘Cause you don't be comin' home sometimes,
Baby, but you're always on time, checkin' for one time,
You and I got a special bond together.
We go back like bombers, boo, in the coldest weather,
And when I play, you play the same way,
You freak me, baby, I fuck you crazy, then I'm gone.
Baby don't really want me to get up and leave off that easy,
She'll be wakin' up wet, for sheezy.
Remind these bitches to mind they business,
Believe me, this pimp game is very religious,
And I'm built like the Don Bishop,
Gon' keep this money-green Benz and my hoes as my witness,
The life we share is a thug affair, but who cares? You care.
[Chorus: Ashanti]
Baby, I'm not always there when you call, but I'm always on time,
And I gave you my all, now, baby, be mine.
I'm not always there when you call, but I'm always on time,
And I gave you my all, now, baby, be mine.
Always there when you call, always on time,
Gave you my, baby, be mine.
Always there when you call, always on time,
Gave you my, baby, be mine.

Here at W-I-Z, we play nothing but the hits, nothing but the hits,
Nothing but the mothafuckin' hits!
