Twice My Age

[Krystal:] I'm in love with a man, almost twice my age,
Don't know what it is, but it hits me from my youthful days,
As I go my way, I don't care what people say,
I'm in love with a man, almost twice my age!

[Shabba:] Come on! Igle jube, jube - igle jube
She don't want no igle jube, jube... igle jube,
She wants a man with plenty of cash,
The igle jube, you know he ain't got no stash,
She don't want no lover's honey, she wants the money,
She don't want no lover's honey, she wants the money!

[Krystal:] When I tell you girls, in my youthful days,
I never loved another man my age, then the don came along,
He made me smile all the while, and he stood tall and strong, so strong, so strong...

[Shabba:] Young men have strength but that ain't enough,
She wants a man to give her the good stuff,
True! She wants to pay the light bill and rent,
You know you gotta have a big dividend,
Down the line, your pockets gotta be deep,
Make sure that the man has strength to keep.

[Krystal:] Stood up for me when no one cared.
Stood up for me where other men wouldn't dare,
Made me know when a real man loves,
Never made me feel he's old,
Never gave me love that was cold,
You better watch your food,
Old men will dip into your plate.

[Shabba:] Now if a woman has an old man, she ain't gonna find that wrong,
Now she's dealing with a foundation,
Living with a young man will mess up her plans,
And she wants some dollars in her hands.

[Krystal:] I'm in love with a man, almost twice my age,
Don't know what it is, but it hits me from my youthful days,
As I go my way, I don't care what people say,
I'm in love with a man, almost twice my age!

[Shabba:] She don't want no igle jube, jube... igle jube,
She don't want no igle jube, jube... igle jube,
She don't want no lover's honey, all she wants is money,
She don't want no lover's honey, all she wants is money,
The woman is dealing with maturity,
That's why she ain't gonna take one under 30,
35 and 40, 45 and 60,
65 and 60, the woman wants money.

[Krystal:] Girls, this is my advice to you!
A man that age has good experience!
He'll treat you good, he'll treat you well,
He may make you rich and proud,
So you won't have to bow, won't have to bow!

[Shabba:] Young men have strength but that ain't enough,
She wants a man to give her the good stuff,
True! She wants to pay the light bill and rent,
Make sure your pockets are deep, and
Your collar better be full of strength,
Igle jube, jube... igle jube,
She don't want no lover's honey, all she wants is money,
She don't want no lover's honey, all she wants is money,

[Krystal:] I'm in love with a man, almost twice my age,
I don't know what it is, but it hits me from my youthful days,
As I go my way, I don't care what people say,
I'm in love with a man, almost twice my age!
