Player Lyrics by Prince

0

[Intro]
So there you are
About time you showed up
Yeah, I know what you heard
But let me talk

[Verse 1]
Baby, take a look outside your window
And see your future standing there
I've been here for a while now, baby
Or maybe you weren't aware
I knew that you heard every single story
About all the friends that I've got
But baby, if you give me seven years of your time
All the friends I would have not

[Chorus]
Player, if I had you girl, I wouldn't be one
Player, if you'd let me in the mix, we could have fun
Player, if life was a movie, you'd have the main part
Girl, you're number one with a bullet on my charts

[Verse 2]
Don't make me say I need you like a beggar man
Why don't you let me come inside?
I'm the type of male that a girl like you is in need of
Sho' do right
I could take you sailing in a glass bottom boat
You could drink wine while I read poems that I wrote

I'm sick of fishing in the big sea, baby
I wanna check out the settling down
I wanna dock my boat in your fairway
In your kisses I wanna drown
In your kisses I wanna drown
In your kisses I wanna drown

[Chorus]
Player, if I had you girl, I wouldn't be one
Player, if you'd let me in the mix, we could have fun
Player, if life was a movie, you'd have the main part
Girl, you're number one with a bullet on my charts

[Interlude]
If I had you girl, I wouldn't be one

[Verse 3]
Friends, whatever they told you, they lied
My life's an open book, I ain't got nothing to hide
I need you like a beggar, yeah, I got no pride
Open your heart, let me come inside

[Chorus]
Player, if I had you girl, I wouldn't be one
Player, if you'd let me in the mix, we could have fun
Player, if life was a movie, you'd have the main part
Girl, you're number one with a bullet on my charts

[Verse 4]
Baby, take a look outside your window
And see your future standing there
I've been here for a while now, baby
Or maybe you wouldn't care
I knew that you heard every single story
About all the friends that I've got
But baby, if you give me seven years of your time
All the friends I will have not

[Chorus]
Player, if I had you girl, I wouldn't be one
Player, if you'd let me in the mix, we could have fun
Player, if life was a movie, you'd have the main part
Girl, you're number one with a bullet on my charts

[Outro]
Player
Player
Player
So that's my day in court
