A Tribe Called Quest

A Tribe Called Quest - Common Ground (get It Going On) lyrics

Who that at the door? (Yo, Tip, it's her)

What you doin here, in front of my face? (repeat 3X)

You didn't want my...you didn't want it

To go somewhere, you all on it

But if you want to, then you can come here

Come here, yo

Q-Tip:

Have you ever met a woman that just took your breath?

So deep inside her life, she contemplated death

Can't help but get attatched to a woman like that (true dat)(repeat 4X)

The contact was quite immediate, I had to attack

(Because you the man, yo, you know you the man)

We related and debated over food and tunes

Started out in September, now we enterin June (say word)(repeat 4X)

Simple night in the crib, no, it just won't do (no it just won't do, no

it just won't do)

Because she liable to start shit that's wildin you (wildin you,

wildin...)

She wanna push my whip, buy diamond chips

And take on trips, conversin my flip

Gotta do her hair, take her out to the fair

When a jake be there, make sure you don't stare

At another one comin, don't be startin nuthin

Be a slave to her, don't be afraid of her

Make sure that she's right, make sure that you're wrong

When she wants to do it, make sure that it's long

If anyone wanna make it work with me (Phife Dawg help me out)(repeat 2X)

But we gotta come through with common ground baby

Any man, he can claim to be the one for you

But put it straight to your lover in life runs true

chorus:

And if it's me then let's get it going on (repeat 4X)

Get it going on, let's get it going on

And if it's me then let's get it going on (repeat 2X)

Q-Tip:

Phife Dawg in the break, is she more than you can take?

Phife:

See, I'm not the one to be taken advantage of

And if you really think about it, I got nuthin but love

Now if your heart isn't in it, please let me know

There's no need to waste time, if it's no, then I'll go

chorus:

And if it's me then let's get it going on (repeat 4X)

Get it going on, let's get it going on

And if it's me then let's get it going on (repeat 2X)

Get it going on, let's get it going on
