Shooby dooby dooby doo woi

Shooby doo

Oh

Shooby doo dooby doo boi oi

Yeah, ah

Girl, you’re my angel, you’re my darling angel

Closer than my peeps you are to me, baby

Shorty, you’re my angel, you’re my darling angel

Girl, you’re my friend when I’m in need, lady

Life is one big party when you’re still young

But who’s gonna have your back when it’s all done

It’s all good when you’re little, you have pure fun

Can’t be a fool, son, what about the long run

Looking back Shorty always mention

Said me not giving her much attention

She was there through my incarceration

I wanna show the nation my appreciation

Girl, you’re my angel, you’re my darling angel

Closer than my peeps you are to me, baby

Shorty, you’re my angel, you’re my darling angel

Girl, you’re my friend when I’m in need, lady

You’re a queen and so you should be treated

Though you never get the lovin’ that you needed

Could have left, but I called and you heeded

Takin’ a beatin’, mission completed

Mama said that I and I dissed the program

Not the type to mess around with her emotion

But the feeling that I have for you is so strong

Been together so long and this could never be wrong

Girl, you’re my angel, you’re my darling angel

Closer than my peeps you are to me, baby

Shorty, you’re my angel, you’re my darling angel

Girl, you’re my friend when I’m in need, lady

Uh, uh

Girl, in spite of my behavior, said I’m your savior

(You must be sent from up above)

And you appear to me so tender, say girl I surrender

(Thanks for giving me your love)

Girl, in spite of my behavior, well, you are my savior

(You must be sent from up above)

And you appear to me so tender, well, girl I surrender

(Said thanks for giving me your love)

Now life is one big party when you’re still young

And who’s gonna have your back when it’s all done

It’s all good when you’re little, you have pure fun

Can’t be a fool, son, what about the long run

Looking back Shorty always mention

Said me not giving her much attention

She was there through my incarceration

I wanna show the nation my appreciation

Girl, you’re my angel, you’re my darling angel

Closer than my peeps you are to me, baby

Shorty, you’re my angel, you’re my darling angel

Girl, you’re my friend when I’m in need, lady

Girl, you’re my angel, you’re my darling angel

Closer than my peeps you are to me, baby

Shorty, you’re my angel, you’re my darling angel

Girl, you’re my friend when I’m in need, lad
