Lyrics

I hail from a suburb
Outside southeast
No I ain't the type
I don't like to run in the streets
And I ain't really into none of that
Uh
Pimp & thug mentality
But I like to smoke some weed
And get close
And set my mind free
Can I hang with you?
I ain't gonna pay your rent
All I've got is love
And time
To spend
I ain't gonna pay your rent
'Cause all I've got is love
And time to spend
Can I hang with you?
Tell me
Can I hang with you?
I wanna hang with you

Yeah
I got a nice car
So what?
Yeah, and I got a nice house too
Come here
It don't mean a thing
Without someone there
To share
Give my love to
Rebecca
Yes, you

I just wanna talk and get to know you
I just wanna talk and get to know you
I just wanna talk and get to know you
Before I touch you
Learn to love you

Can I hang with you?
I ain't gonna pay your rent
All I've got is love
And time
To spend
I ain't gonna pay your rent
All I got is
Love
And time to spend
I wanna hang with you, baby
Can I hang with you?

Yeah
And yes, you know you fine
Yeah

I ain't gonna pay your rent
'Cause all I've got is love
'Cause I ain't gonna pay your rent
'Cause all I've got is love
Give you
What you really want
I ain't gonna pay your rent
'Cause all I've got is love
What you really need
Tell me
Can I hang with you?

I just wanna talk and get to know you
I just wanna talk and get to know you
I just wanna talk and get to know you
Before I touch you
Learn to love you

Tell me can I hang with you?

I just wanna talk and get to know you
I just wanna talk and get to know you
What you really need
I just wanna talk and get to know you
Before I touch you
Learn to love you

Can I hang with you?
I ain't gonna pay your rent
'Cause all I got is love
And time to spend
So tell me
Can I hang with you?
I ain't gonna pay your rent
'Cause all I got is love
I wanna hang with you
Tell me can I hang with you?

I just wanna talk and get to know you
I just wanna talk and get to know you
I just wanna talk and get to know you
Before I touch you
Learn to love you
Can I hang with you?
