Could've Got Away

(álbum: Welcome To Fantasy Island - 1997)

[Pitched Producer:]
Uh, awwww yeah, yeah check it out
Check it out
Tell you 'bout a little lamb who's bud was green and mo'
And everywhere that little lamb went, One Time was sure to follow

[Adina Howard:]
I was driving home one night and feeling kind of high
That's when I saw the flashing lights behind me
Chronic in my pocket, this is all I really need
I knew somehow that they would find it on me
They took me out my ride (Out my ride)
And told me to stand aside
Repping with that funky disposition
I could no tell a lie (Tell a lie)
They saw it in my eyes
Mama always said I didn't listen

Could've got away but I was too damn high (Could've got away)
Got got pulled up by One Time (Ah ah)
Ain't nobody even read my rights (Ain't nobody even read my rights)
Could've got away but I was too damn high (Could've got away)
Got got pulled up by One Time
All up on me with that police light like I was the one

People passing, looking, wondering was it really me
While I was steady searching for a way out
(I was steady searching for a way)
All up on a sista like you just would not believe
And I was thinking this could be the way now
That's when I closed my eyes (Closed my eyes)
Started to rub my thighs
Thinking they might get to feeling nasty
It came as no surprise (No surprise)
They wasn't into thighs
Cuffed up, now I'm rolling in the bank seat
(Could've got away)

Could've got away but I was too damn high (Could've got away)
Got got pulled up by One Time
Ain't nobody even read my rights (Hey hey hey yeah)
Could've got away but I was too damn high (Could've got away)
Got got pulled up by One Time (Could've got away)
All up on me with that police light like I was the one

Everybody wanna tell a lie (Tell a lie)
'Specially when they're only chronic high ('Specially when they're only chronic high)
'Scuse me but I ain't did nothing wrong (Ain't did nothing wrong)
Just tryna find a way to get home

Could've got away but I was too damn high (Could've got away)
Got got pulled up by One Time (Could've got away)
Ain't nobody even read my rights (Ain't nobody even read my rights)
Could've got away but I was too damn high (Ah ah ah yeah)
Got got pulled up by One Time
All up on me with that police light like I was the one (Oh God)

Could've got away but I was too damn high (On no)
Got got pulled up by One Time (One Time)
Ain't nobody even read my rights (Ain't nobody even read my rights)
Could've got away but I was too damn high (Oh no)
Got got pulled up by One Time (One Time)
All up on me with that police light like I was the one (Like I was the one)

Could've got away but I was too damn high (Ooh Lord)
Got got pulled up by One Time (One Time)
Ain't nobody even read my rights (All up on me hahaha)
Could've got away but I was too damn high (One Time)
Got got pulled up by One Time (One Time)
All up on me with that police light like I was the one
I was the one
I was the one
