You know I love my baby (You know I love my baby)
My baby loves me (My baby loves me)
My day, it gets so heavy
I need a little company, oh
It's quarter to 11 – it's time to make some ghetto heaven
(Ghetto heaven)

Ghetto heaven (Ghetto...)
I need a little ghetto heaven

Nana likes brandy (Nana likes brandy)
Especially peach (Especially peach)
She keeps it by the radio
And listens to the reverend preach (Oh, oh, oh)
It's 10:07, and time to get some ghetto heaven
(Ghetto heaven)

Ghetto heaven (Ghetto...)
It's time to get some ghetto heaven (Ghetto heaven)
Ghetto heaven (Ghetto...)
She needs a little ghetto heaven

Baby, baby, baby
All I need in this world is you, uh, uh
And when you're gone, baby, baby, baby
Your touch, your kiss always gets me through, oh-oh, by


Sister needs her sugar (Sister needs her sugar)
To get her through the day (To get her through the day)
She doesn't have the money
But always got a way to pay (Pay)
It's 2:07 – it's time to sell some ghetto heaven
(Ghetto heaven)

Ghetto heaven (Ghetto...)
It's time to sell some ghetto heaven (Oh, ghetto heaven)
Ghetto heaven (Ghetto....)
She needs a little ghetto heaven
(I need a little ghetto heaven)

You know I love my baby (Ghetto heaven)
And my baby loves me (Ghetto heaven)
My day gets so heavy (Ghetto...)
I need a little company, yeah, ooh (Ghetto heaven)
It's quarter to 11 – I need a little ghetto heaven
(Ghetto heaven)

Ghetto heaven (Ghetto...)
My baby needs some ghetto heaven (Ghetto heaven)
Ghetto heaven (Ghetto...)
I need a little ghetto heaven (Ghetto heaven)
Ghetto heaven (Ghetto...)
I need a little ghetto heaven (Ghetto heaven)
Ghetto heaven (Ghetto...)
I need a little ghetto heaven (Ghetto heaven)
Ghetto heaven (Ghetto...)
I need a little ghetto heaven (Ghetto heaven)
(Ghetto...)
Ghetto heaven (Ghetto heaven)
