Emerald Street

Jamila Woods 、Saba -Emerald Street （feat.Saba）

I be in my nightgown chicken wings ready

If you bring the mild sauce we can go steady

You can have the coleslaw we can share the one straw

Sit outside on my block

On emerald street where we used to meet yeah

On my ma's porch seat hoping she won't see yeah

Would you be mine would you be mine

Won't you be my neighbour

Won't you be my neighbour

Won't you be my

Not a lot of places we can go to be together

'Cos you know the city how'd it get so cold

Write a message in a bottle tell your new book tell your goddess

Snd bow that she'll remember then

You got my house phone jumping

Play ball in the alley it's jumping

Treat the corner store likes it's a luncheon

I hear your bestfriend like like my cousin

Oh lady say to stay out of the grass

Talk back then I got put on punishment

Couldn't go outside for a meal

Even try to run away like I'm tubman

I know you like my bike it's a huffy

With the pen we be stuntin'

Someone stole it I call shorty

He say he seen someone on it

Got it back the same night

I hope this day never end

Then I tell you how I like you you say that we were just friends

Damn

On emerald street where we used to meet yeah

On my ma's porch seat hoping she won't see yeah

It's a wonderful day in the hood

Would you be mine would you be mine

Won't you be my neighbour

Won't you be my neighbour

Won't you be my
