If It Ain't One Thing... Lyrics - Foxy Brown

[Foxy Brown] 

Yes, dutty 

It's ya girl Fox Brown and I'm comin' through ya town 

Know what I mean, but for Luther I'ma keep this clean, yes (oh) 

[Verse One: Luther Vandross (Foxy)] 

Could've died when I found out we 

Couldn't live together peacefully 

That's when it started and we nearly parted 

Well I was hoping not to see that day 

We started getting in each other's way 

Maybe it's better, we don't live together 

Things got strange, my space to chill became half the size 

You became, someone I didn't even recognise (what) 

[Chorus: Luther (Foxy)] 

What's the matter now? (y'know) 

What you talkin' bout? 

If it ain't one thing, it's another (that's right) 

If it ain't one thing, it's the other (whatever) 

Why you gotta put me down? 

What you complaining about? 

If it ain't one thing, it's the other 

If it ain't one thing, it's another (Dutty) 

Oh, oh (what) oh, oh, oh, I remember 

{And I was like that when you left me} 

[Verse Two: Luther (Foxy)] 

I remember when, I got a yacht for a dinner cruise 

The way you treated everyone was rude 

And I don't believe ya, you're such a diva (that's right) 

I told the waitress we wanted wine {uh huh} 

You got upset because the girl was fine 

You're complicated (you know), but somehow we make it 

I get tired, from all I have to do to keep you satisfied 

Get no sleep, you call me in the middle of the night and weep 

[Chorus] 

[Bridge: Luther] {Foxy} 

I guess I can't see the wool through you're eyes {yes, uh} 

(Pretty little brown eyes) {yes} 

I guess I don't understand what goes on, goes on, goes on {LV, baby!} 

In your mind 

[Foxy Brown] 

Now Luther what you mean if it ain't one thing, then it's another 

Look brother, we took a vow to cherish each other 

And I, been through the storm 

But you keep disrespecting and ignoring me 

I swear, won't be long til I'm gone 

But, ain't nothing worse than a black woman scorned 

I move with integrity, it's hard being a celebrity 

And loving you is like a Gift and a Curse 

You ain't gotta think twice, 'cause I'm leaving you first (uh huh) 

[Chorus: x2] 

[Foxy] 

I must admit that at times I talk slick 

But I'm the woman of this house, my best defense is my mouth 

And, I give you good love, I cook you dinner 

And like Halle and Denzel, your wife is a winner 

So on, you chose your bed so sleep in it 

I should've known from day one, but I was so deep in it, so 

Since what I'm saying, is going in one ear and out the other brother 

This ain't your house, get the hell out! 

And leave the keys and the drop top Z behind 

You can't diss me, then expect to keep what's mine 

So keep thinking you can use and abuse me 

While you realize you miss me, I'm gone, taking my ish with me
