Текст Biz Markie – She’s Not Just Another Woman (Monique)
Текст:
Verse 1
I once knew a girl by the name of Monique
She was my childhood sweetheart every day of the week
Whether PS46, or 151
We both lived in Colonial Projects
I lived in building 48, she lived in building 26
We used to play Ringling, Coke or 1-2-3
But when I’m in Monique’s presence, I would just freeze
The relationship began when I was five startin
She was in nursery school, I was in kindergarten
We was more closer than a hand and glove
This is what you call real puppy love
When we’d go trick or treating, I would carry her bag
When we moved to Long Island, it was all such a drag
Cause I know it would be difficult to see her again
I wouldn’t miss her more than I’d miss all of my friends
Even though we was little this love was unique
And this is what I say to my love Monique, because
Chorus x4
«She’s not, just another woman..
She’s not, no no!»
Verse 2
Let me tell ya a little somethin, about Monique
Even though we was little she had a physique
Indian brown skin with a nice complexion
She always gave me tender love and affection
I knew she was different in her own little way
I used to knock at her door bout every single day
I remember when we used to go trick or treatin
Crazy big variety of a lot of candy
She would share it with her friends Kim Ron and Fran and
Lee-nette, the girl she called her cousin
We never had an argument, oh we was never fussin
That’s why me and her got along so good
Anything I asked her to do, you know she would
We would have family day, in back of building 70
I would win her a prize, so she could treat me heavenly
I don’t care what nobody say, because
This girl would make my day, and
Chorus
Verse 3
Now this is the epilogue of this story
About a young little girl, especially for me
No matter how many years ago I can’t forget
But then again 1986 hit
She looked just the same, but in a bigger version
My mind started goin on a love excursion
I started reminiscin to her bout old times
She began to smile, I guess I rang her chimes
I didn’t see her again until 1988
And I saw her again, and she still was straight
Now this time I had enough courage to speak to her
I told her would you be with me, and what would occur
Then I asked was, she swingin any capers
She said — no not me, nobody got no papers
I couldn’t believe, after all of these years
I was so happy she waited it brought me to tears, cause
Chorus: quickly fades out
