Lyrics
So you get my point, son
You just don't trust no bitch, you know what I'm sayin?
(Okay, daddy, I understand)
'Cause bitches ain't no good, you know what I'm sayin?
(Okay, I get your point)
Anyway, listen to this, check it out

1994, As the world gets trifer
I'm wondering, the fuck I need a woman in my life for?
Ya know, 'cause it's like a nigga whole history
With you hoes been nothin' but misery
First rater, five-one stood
Mad coke fiend, though the bitch looked good
Met her at the Fever, "What's going on, stranger?"
And like a fool took her in and tried to change her
I don't who I thought I's bluffing
That bitch wasn't giving up that coke for nothin'
"Oh, you tryna diss, mister bougeois nigga
Yet back in the day, you used to smoke coke cigarettes too
That type shit you ain't admittin'"
Because, homegirl, I grew out of it, you didn't
Anyway, dead outta order
Came in with a sheepskin her ex-lover bought her
Who gave you that? "My ex", I said "Who?"
Believe she had the nerve to say "You can wear it too"
When I found strength to depart, I do
Withdrew, for something brand new

Someone who would be true
Yes, I should find someone who would be true
'Cause Ricky needs a love that's true, true
Oh dear, Scooby Dooby Doo, Scooby Doo

Then I met Syb, sweating the viking
A brown skinned fox, slim just like I like 'em
"What? Sweating you? Picture that, nerd. Please"
Anyway, the bitch had herpes (you know)
Imagine me, the fool being the spouse
Doctor said I couldn't catch it unless I got aroused
Found out snooping in her bag what she got
Now why you ain't tell me? You worthless, slut
"Because I loved you at the time and couldn't afford to"
You know homegirl should get the Oscar award for her lying
Anyway, stayed with the creep
One day, Sybil here, talking in her sleep
"Chris, wait," the bum bitch said
So loud 'til a motherfucker fell out the bed
Who the hell is Chris? She putting up resistance
'Til I caught her calling the nigga long distance
Had the nerve to dispatch loving
Boy, am I lucky that I didn't catch nothin'
When I found strength to depart, I do
Withdrew, for something brand new

Someone who would be true
Yes, I should find someone who would be true
'Cause Ricky needs a love that's true, true, true
Indeed, I need a love that's true
It seems I need a love that's true
Oh dear, Scooby Dooby Doo
Oh gosh, Scooby Doo Doo

Though happy I was free, the need for love was still in me
Got to the point like the need for it was killing me
Then I met shorty here, hanging with my cousin
Found out later how young the bitch was and
Though I done hit it and she opened up a world
And remind me of that song "Go Away, Little Girl"
It had to end because the bitch weren't loyal, and spoiled
"That's because I had you pussy whipped royal"
You see the type of shit the nigga was gonna marry?
See the type of attitude the bum bitch carry?
Like oil and water, impossible mixture
Then temper tantrums came into the picture
Yelling (ah), carrying on bad and cursing
Complete embarrassment to Ruler as a person
"Gimme shorts" Ruler will not permit you
Then she goes wild, starts breaking up my furniture
Flirt too, excuse me, a whore
Like the world's worst groupie when I brought her on tour
So when I found strength to depart, I do
Withdrew, for something brand new

Someone who would be true
Yes, I should find someone who would be true
'Cause Ricky needs a love that's true, true, true
Indeed, I need a love that's true
It seems I need a love that's true
Oh dear, Scooby Dooby Doo
Oh gosh, Scooby Doo Doo
Ricky needs a lover that's true
Yes, I need a love that's true
Yes, I need a love that's true
