HOUSEKEEPING KNOWS Song Lyrics

HOUSEKEEPING KNOWS by Drake

[Skit]
Play something
What you wanna hear?
Somethin' sweet, somethin' upliftin'
Somethin' sweet and upliftin', huh?
Yeah, play somethin' inspirin'

[Intro: DJ T-TIME]
Got a perm kick
Dance for me (T-Time)
I ain't talkin' 'bout you (Then do it)
Not-not yet, but hold on, we finna see if they act like they ridin' on sumn'
Woah, make the booty go

[Chorus: DJ T-TIME & Drake]
Act like you ridin' the stick
Act like you ridin' the stick
Act like you ridin' the stick
Act like you ridin' the stick
Sit on the stick while you ride on it
Sit on the stick while you ride on it
Sit on the stick while you ride on it
Ride, ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride, ride, ride
Ride (Ride), ride (Ride), ride (Ride), ride (Ride)
Ride (Ride), ride (Yeah), ride, act like you ridin' the stick (Look)
[Verse 1: Drake]
I can't get no eight hours of sleep
Not when you here layin' next to me
It's like the third time switchin' out the sheets
Housekeeping must know that we some freaks
When you go away, I hate the distance
Bookin' flights like I was your assistant
I could never treat you like no mistress
But if I f**k you like you are then what's the difference?

[Bridge]
Down, get down
Down, get down
I know you be distant
I know you just in it
Down, get down
Down, get down
I know you be distant
Woah, make the booty go

[Chorus: DJ T-TIME & Drake]
Act like you ridin' the stick
Act like you ridin' the stick
Act like you ridin' the stick
Act like you ridin' the stick
Sit on the stick while you ride on it
Sit on the stick while you ride on it
Sit on the stick while you ride on it
Come on, act like you ridin' the stick
Ride, ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride, ride (Ride), ride (Ride)
Ride (Ride), ride (Ride), ride, act like you ridin' the stick
[Verse 2: Drake & Latto]
East coast girls poppin' ass and poppin' pills
West coast girls do the same but in the Hills
Southside girls, they know how to close a deal (Southside)
Up in the 6ix, up-up in the 6ix
Up in the 6ix, they do whatever they feel

[Verse 3: Latto & Drake]
I done had too many drinks to hop behind the wheel (Skrt)
Crocodile Birkin and I'm carryin' concealed (Boo-boo-boom)
Know you see it pokin' out, I never miss no meals
Ride (Ride), ride (Ride), ride (Ride), ride (Ride)
Ride it like big mama where you better have some skills
Attitude on Clayco but my ass is on Brazil
Latto givin' chills (Uh), Latto givin' thrills (Uh)
He got home from work and now I'm naked in some heels
He almost had a heart attack, he wrote me in his will, b**ch, what's up?

[Bridge: Latto]
Down, get down (Ayy)
Down, get down
I know you be distant
I know you just in it
Down, get down (Big mama, big Latto, big mama, big mama)
Down, get down
I know you be distant
Woah, make the booty go
[Chorus: DJ T-TIME]
Act like you ridin' the stick
Act like you ridin' the stick
Act like you ridin' the stick
Act like you ridin' the stick
Sit on the stick while you ride on it
Sit on the stick while you ride on it
Sit on the stick while you ride on it
Come on, act like you ridin' the stick
Ride, ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride, ride, act like you ridin' the stick
