Paroles: Public Announcement. Slow Dance.

How come we don't slow dance no more
How come we don't hold each other real close
Stick together close like hand and glove
The way we used to do off, honey love

Hold 'em up, what the deal, bring it back
Days of grind, holdin' girls, bendin' backs
Ghetto plans of romance, keep it hot
In the basement of your best friend spot

Everybody from the hood, ain't no game
Freakin' out in the sweat, ain't no shame
In you know and you feel what I speak
It went down at the end every week
Let's bring it back

How come we don't slow dance no more
How come we don't hold each other real close
Stick together close like hand and glove
The way we used to do off, honey love

The basement parties used to be so tight
Bumpin', grindin', freakin' with you all night
Off up in the corner shorty got me goin'
Pressed all up against me shorty got me swoll

Listen up as I begin to break it down
You so call playas at the party jumpin' 'round
Rap music was kept on the low
'Cause anybody that got lucky, got it dancing slow

I'm not sayin' that what you do ain't cool
You do it so much you forgot about the old school
Ghetto lights and one turntable was the move
And the only thing we came there to do and that's to slow dance

How come we don't slow dance no more
How come we don't hold each other real close
Stick together close like hand and glove
The way we used to do off, honey love

The basement parties used to be so tight
Bumpin', grindin', freakin' with you all night
Off up in the corner shorty got me goin'
Pressed all up against me shorty got me swoll

H-Town had everybody knockin' boots
R Kelly, PA honey lovin' you
Freak me, baby, lights out like Silk used to do
Do me, baby, in the corner, just me and you

Isley Brothers put us in the bed between the sheets
For some sexual healin', for some sexual healin'
Keith Sweat talking' bout how deep your loving go
Luther Vandross put us in the mood for some, ooh yeah

How come we don't slow dance no more
How come we don't hold each other real close
Stick together close like hand and glove
The way we used to do off, honey love

The basement parties used to be so tight
Bumpin', grindin', freakin' with you all night
Off up in the corner shorty got me goin'
Pressed all up against me shorty got me swoll

How come we don't slow dance no more
How come we don't hold each other real close
Stick together close like hand and glove
The way we used to do off, honey love

The basement parties used to be so tight
Bumpin', grindin', freakin' with you all night
Off up in the corner shorty got me goin'
Pressed all up against me shorty got me swoll

How come we don't slow dance no more
How come we don't hold each other real close
Stick together close like hand and glove
The way we used to do off, honey love

The basement parties used to be so tight
Bumpin', grindin', freakin' with you all night
Off up in the corner shorty got me goin'
Pressed all up against me shorty got me swoll

How come we don't slow dance no more
How come we don't hold each other real close
Stick together close like hand and glove
