Heard ’Em All Lyrics
[Intro]
A-Amerie (Ah-ah)
A-Amerie (Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Sing it!
It's Amerie, I took a little time out
Took a vacation but boys, I'm back
Pardon the interruption but we got a news flash
Someone in the buildin' said Amerie's back
Sing it!
[Chorus]
I done heard 'em all talk 'bout how much they want me
But ain't never had nobody put it on me, hey!
Keep doin' what you're doin' 'cause it ain't been done to me
Keep doin' what you're doin' 'cause it ain't been done to me
[Verse 1]
Some of them wonder what it take to be my lover (Yeah)
First you gotta be my drummer, don't move fast
You can pop tags on the Louis bags
But it won't get you under my covers
[Pre-Chorus]
(Girls) Ah-ah, oh-oh, eh-eh, oh yeah
(Girls) Ah-ah, oh-oh, eh-eh, oh yeah
A-Amerie (Ah-ah)
A-Amerie (Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Sing it!
It's Amerie, I took a little time out
Took a vacation but boys, I'm back
Pardon the interruption but we got a news flash
Someone in the buildin' said Amerie's back
Sing it!
[Chorus]
I done heard 'em all talk 'bout how much they want me
But ain't never had nobody put it on me, hey!

About
Genius Annotation
“Heard ‘Em All” is the second single off of In Love and War. It was promoted via a music video, directed by Anthony Mandler. Despite the many remixes by famous stars such as Lil Wayne, it failed to reach major success in many countries, especially the US where it peaked at eighty-one on Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. It did, however, reach the top five on Korean Pop Charts and Aruba’s Top 20.
