[Verse 1: Rihanna]
~#**************#~
Gotta keep it on the down low
~#**************#~
Ill never let my mama know
~#**************#~
Only call him on my cell phone
~#**************#~
Only see him after dark
~#**************#~
I met him on the six train
~#**************#~
Just the way he said my name
~#**************#~
The brother had a lotta game
~#**************#~
Had me open from the start
~#**************#~
He scoops me up in his ride
~#**************#~
Friday about a quarter to nine
~#**************#~
So fly and so fine, and Im so glad that hes all mine
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Rihanna]
~#**************#~
Theres a thug in my life
~#**************#~
How am I gonna tell my mama?
~#**************#~
Shes gonna say it aint right, but hes so good to me
~#**************#~
Theres a thug in my life
~#**************#~
And its gonna cause crazy drama
~#**************#~
Im gonna see him tonight
~#**************#~
Im gonna give him everything
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Rihanna]
~#**************#~
I know his crews kinda shady
~#**************#~
Sometimes it gets kinda crazy
~#**************#~
But he treats me like a lady
~#**************#~
Gives me everything I need
~#**************#~
I dont care whos hating on me
~#**************#~
‘Cause every night, hes waiting on me
~#**************#~
Hes got mad personality, a side they never see
~#**************#~
My friends tell me to slow down
~#**************#~
But every time that hes around
~#**************#~
My hearts on lock down
~#**************#~
I feel love and Im so proud
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Rihanna]
~#**************#~
Theres a thug in my life
~#**************#~
How am I gonna tell my mama?
~#**************#~
Shes gonna say it aint right, but hes so good to me (So good to me)
~#**************#~
Theres a thug in my life
~#**************#~
And its gonna cause crazy drama
~#**************#~
Im gonna see him tonight
~#**************#~
Im gonna give him everything (Give him everything)
~#**************#~
[Bridge: Rihanna]
~#**************#~
Mama, dont worry, Im not in a hurry
~#**************#~
I wont disappoint you, I wont make you sorry
~#**************#~
Hes the one for me (Hes all I ever need)
~#**************#~
Well be together from now til forever
~#**************#~
I know its the real thing
~#**************#~
If you dont, whatever
~#**************#~
And I know its meant to be (I know its meant to be, I know its meant to be)
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Rihanna]
~#**************#~
Theres a thug in my life
~#**************#~

~#**************#~
Shes gonna say it aint right, but hes so good to me (Yeah)
~#**************#~
Theres a thug in my life
~#**************#~
And its gonna cause crazy drama
