This is a feel good song, that just makes you wanna get up and dance, it's real cool.
Story behind the song
Was just thinkin' about high school now that I graduated and was like "dang, I ain't never had a high school sweetheart" and there was my song. Real crazy, but real tight cut though.
Lyrics
High School Sweetheart (11)
By Lil Shay
Startin’ freshmen year you was walkin’ down the halls
Remember thinkin’ to myself “oh my god that dude is hott”
The beginning of a crush the beginning of a year, So many jealous little girls
That new they’d never get near
The man that I claimed, the man that I saw,(talk) well (end) he really a boy but yo at that age I thought that brotha was raw. (what kind of brotha)
A young brotha light skinned sweet and tall
Stood about 5’10, had the name of Jamall
Lookin’ so smooth as he swayed back and forth
From class to class always leave me wantin’ moe’
And you know wit me the kind of game that got
Flirtin’ wit my smile yeah you know I had a shot
But I never got the time of day to step up and talk
Just stood back, admired and that was all
Chorus: It was a simple feelin’ that I remember
Chillin’ at lunch tryin’ to get your number
Up on the court drippblin in the game
And every single day was exactly the same
Sittin’ in the gym just watchin’ shoot
Until my friends said “ey yo what you gon’ do”
But I don’t know why I never went
Baby you don’t how I regret that event
Now graduated high school, got a man he’s real cool
But there’s one thing in high school that I never knew
Never experienced a high school sweet heart…yeah it’s true
Missed out on a relationships in high school
Never had a boyfriend longer than a week or two
Shoulda holla’d when I had the chance to holla
Coulda known what it was like to chill wit a balla
It was a simple feelin’ that I remember
Chilllin’ at lunch tryin’ to get your number
Up on the court dribbliin in the game
And every single day was exactly same
Sittin’ in the gym just watchin’ shoot
until my friends said “ey yo what you gon’ do
But I don’t know why I never went
Baby you don’t how I regret that event
(talk) Okay, I’m a let you know. I did a lot of stuff in high school that I’m a regret, so if you goin’ into high school or into another year you need to listen up. Aight I’m a break it down for you right here. Take advantage of your high school life, ‘cause it only comes around once.
You know first things first you gotta take care of grades
Have dreams and goals, you’ll make it a whole lot of ways
straight A’s and B’s
And have priorities
‘Cause later in life man F’s and D’s
Man they Sting like a Bee
(talk) and that’s the truth
Then of course you know, you gotta have fun
Get yourself some friends and make it worth the run
Parties are cool, but be smart ya know
Don’t be doin’ stupid things that make your future dreams blow
And last but not least a high school sweet heart
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaah, I had to get to that part
Alright all my freshmen, sophomores, Juniors and Seniors, put your hands up and sing it wit me.
I’m gonna get…. A highschool sweet heart
I’m gonna get…..A highschool sweet heart.
