This One Lyrics by Raphael Saadiq

Ray Ray

2004

[Intro]
Ah yeah
We gon’ take it back, yeah

[Chorus]
This one, this one might be my favorite one
I said this one, she sees right through me
This one, this one might be my favorite one
I know that this one, let’s blow it to the sun

[Verse 1]
Hello, how you doin’, what’s your name, where you goin’, Linda Parker?
Uh-huh, that’s right
Yes, I know your name, I can’t explain, I know we slept together in Houston, Texas
That night we were so wild, you would’ve made your mother proud with all that motion
How you do it when you do it, tell me, why do you, why do you ever get out of bed?

[Chorus]
This one, this one might be my favorite one
I said this one, she sees right through me
This one, this one might be my favorite one
I know that this one, well, just you wait and see

[Verse 2]
Do you know what goes on in my mind on those cold and lonely nights? Yeah
I read about you, talk about you, write about you, I even hear melodies
It’s Friday night, the phone is shaking, ringing, vibrating, but it’s not her
Yes, I think I’ll stay ‘cause she might just ring my phone, don’t wanna miss her
What kind of a fool am I?

[Chorus]
This one, this one might be my favorite one
I said that this one, she sees right through me
This one, this one might be my favorite one
I know that this one, well, just you wait and see

[Interlude]
Oh-oh-oh
Keep it right there
You remember me, I know you do
I’m coming back, I’m coming back to Texas
Uh-huh, I’ma be riding this, uh, ’67, ’67 Cougar
Used to roll through the Town sometime, it’s only Town Business
Allie Baba, throw my keys, uh-huh

[Chorus]
This one, this one might be my favorite one
I said this one, she sees right through me
This one, this one might be my favorite one
I know that this one, well, just you wait and see
This one (I like that too, I like how that sound)
I said this one (Grown up stuff, uh-huh)
This one…
