I Wanna Be Your Man Lyrics

Baby, Baby, Baby
I wanna know you,
Place no one above you
I wanna love you
Baby, Baby, Baby
I wanna be your man...

I remember the first time I came,
To this park
It was one day last May
I saw you lookin' like a star. Um Humm.
I'll never forget the smell of, your perfume
Girl I just gotta see you again.ohh.

To ask your man I had the chance to be with you
Girl I'll never forget, how I planned a good move.
now I'm waitin' in the park.
Waitin after dark.
I've got to see you again... OOhh...

Chorus:
Baby, Baby, Baby (oh baby)
I wanna know you (wanna know you)
Place no one above you
I wanna love you.
Baby, Baby, Baby
I wanna be your man...

So I dream a little dream of us we're, holding hands
And we're takin' long walks, down in the land
My palms are sweaty and my heart's beatin' fast
Cause you smiled and said you'd see me again.

I ain't gonna let you get away this time
That's why I waited here so long
I'm gonna make you mine
Still I'm waiting in the park,
Waitin' after dark.
Waiting here to see you again...

Chorus

I loved you from the moment,
That you graced your beauty

And I just can't wait darlin'
To see you again...
I wanna be your.
I wanna be your man...
(Listen baby)
I wanna be your man...

Baby... Baby, Baby, Baby,(wanna know you)

Chorus til fade

Blackstreet was an American R&B group founded in 1994 by Teddy Riley, a New Jack Swing pioneer known for his work as a member of Guy. The band members were: Teddy Riley, Chauncey Hannibal, Eric Williams, and Terrell Philips (and formerly Joe Stonestreet, Levi Little, David Hollister, and Mark Middleton). Their debut album, Blackstreet, was a moderate success due to the singles "Booti Call" and "Before I Let You Go", both Top 40 hits ("Before" hit the Top 10). The follow-up, 1996's Another Level was a breakthrough success due to the top single "No Diggity" (with Dr. Dre), which was a #1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 in November 1996, and won the 1998 Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals, along with the Top 40 hit "Don't Leave Me". Another Level eventually went four times platinum in the United States and peaked at #3 on the Billboard chart. "No Diggity" is ranked at #91 on Rolling Stone and MTV: 100 Greatest Pop Songs, while Blackstreet comes in at #214 of the Top 500 Pop Artists of the Past 25 Years.

Blackstreet has also collaborated with Jay-Z on his single "The City is Mine". With the help of the Janet Jackson single "Girlfriend", Blackstreet finally had a top ten album with Finally. But personnel shifts wracked the group and contributed to the relative failure of Finally in 1999, and Blackstreet soon broke up. After rumors of legal action and a preemptive countersuit, the group re-banded and released Level II in 2003.

In 2006 They are part of New Jack Reunion Tour Line up. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
