LL's That Type of Guy

Okay, I don't usually do a cover tune all up in this mug, but this is a rendition I came up with that I think stays true to the original, all the while I put my own spin on it to make it my own. Bus' it. It's called "LL's That Type of Guy"
"LL's That Type of Guy"

I'm the type of guy that can't control my girl
I try to buy her love with diamonds and pearls
LL's the type of guy that shows up on the scene
And gets the seven digits, you know the routine
I'm the type of guy that tells her, "Stay inside"
While I'm steady frontin in my homeboy's ride
LL's the type of guy that comes when I leave
He's doin my girlfriend! That's somethin I can't believe
Cause LL's that type of guy

I'm the type of guy that gets...suspicious
LL's the type of guy that says, "The puddin is delicious"
I'm the type of guy that has no idea
That a sneaky, freaky brother's sneakin in from the rear
LL's the type of guy to eat it, when I won't
And look in the places that your boyfriend don't
I'm the type of guy to try to call LL a punk
Now knowin that my main girl's bitin' LL's chunk
LL's the type of guy that loves a dedicated lady
Their boyfriends are borin, and LL can drive em crazy
I'm the type of guy to give her money to shop
She gave LL a sweater *kiss* thank you, sweetheart
LL's that type of guy

LL's the type of guy that picks her up from work early
Takes her to breakfast, lunch, dinner, and breakfast
I'm the type of guy eatin a tv dinner
Talkin about... "Goddamn it, I'ma kill LL!"
LL's the type of guy to make her say, "Why you're illin, Bee?"
...I'm the type of guy to say, "My lower back is killin me"
...Catch my drift?
I'm the type of guy that likes to drink Olde English
LL's the type of guy to cold put on a pamper
I'm the type of guy to say, "What you talkin bout?"
LL's the type of guy to leave his drawers in my hamper
LL's that type of guy

LL's that type of guy
You know what I mean?
Check it out...

T-y-p-e g-u-y
LL's that type of guy to give you a pound and wink his eye
Like a bandit, caught LL redhanded, took her for granted
But when LL screwed her, I couldn't understand it
Cause I'm the type of guy that don't know the time
Swearin up and down, "That girl's all mine"
LL's the type of guy to let me keep believin it
I go 'head to work, while LL defrosts it, and seasons it
cause LL's that type of guy

LL's that type of guy

Know what I mean

LL's that type of guy

"So ridiculous"

So funny
I don't know
Come on down
Yeah
Like real cool, you know what I mean?
LL likes just going to your frontdoor ringin bells
And just like, ha, leave...

Well wicked!. I knew there was an inner Ladies Love Cool Joe in you. You were all, like, when it comes to rap, I'm the businessman of science. But that was some phat flows there. Nice.

I think you’re ready to join those “I’m on a boat” guys.

Well, it's really all his lyrics - it's just one of those deals where you cover a song but shift the perspective, from "he"s to "she"s for instance, or from "I"s to "LL"s - less frequent, but as we see here, potentially devastatingly effective.

This is still DEAD ON ACCURATE. By the way.
