[Intro: Wyclef Jean & Cris Cab]

We in the stu stu studio

Uh, uh, stu stu studio

With Cris Cab in the stu stu put in work

Come on, uh


[Verse 1: Cris Cab]

You know, summertime's comin'

Time for some action

So I pulled up on the block

Said hello to a girl with a very pretty accent

Could be spanish or italian

She was raised in Manhattan

Parents been in the Caribean

She's got a Miami back end


[Pre-Chorus]

She's tryin' keep a guard up

But I'm tryin' to get the guard down

She's been hurt so many times

She don't wanan take her chance now

I would gladly risk it all

Climb mount Everest knowin' I might fall

Hold my breath 'till I get to Mars

Jump in front of a speeding car

Anything you want girl

Cause we living in a young world

You gotta put your back in

When everybody else is acting

Girls are you ready?


[Chorus]

You gotta put in work

Till your hands fall off

You gotta put in work

Till the clock runs out


[Verse 2: Cris Cab]

You know 40 days and 40 nights

Since we first started talking

When I tried to turn the lights off

She said you got the crawl before you start walking

You said patience is a virtue

I can't wait any longer

Cause I've been sitting in your room

Tryna get a boom boom

And my feelings going stronger


[Pre-Chorus]

She's tryin' keep a guard up

But I'm tryin' to get the guard down

She's been hurt so many times

She don't wanan take her chance now

I would gladly risk it all

Climb mount Everest knowin' I might fall

Hold my breath 'till I get to Mars

Jump in front of a speeding car

Anything you want girl

Cause we living in a young world

You gotta put your back in

When everybody else is acting

Girls are you ready?


[Chorus]

You gotta put in work

Till your hands fall off

You gotta put in work

Till the clock runs out


[Bridge]

Ain't no hocus pocus, ain't no abracadabra

If you want that girl, man

Gotta go head and grab her

Ain't no Centuria

Ain't no Ave Maria

If you want Maria gotta go and seek her


[Chorus]

You gotta put in work

Till your hands fall off

You gotta put in work

Till the clock runs out

You gotta put in work

Till your hands fall off

You gotta put in work

Till the clock runs out


[Outro: Wyclef Jean]

Turn up the guitar, Wyclef's [?]

Cris Cab, ladies all hands on deck, come on

Come on!
