[Verse One: Lauryn (Pras)]
Yo! Yo! What?!
I heard he sang a good song, yeah!

Yo...I heard he had a style
And so, I came to see him and listen for awhile! (Yo, yo, yo, yo...unh,unh)
What?! Yo! Yo! Yo! Yo! Yo!...And there he was, this young bra!

(Just a lil' kid chillin' on a...unh)
Ha-Ha! Stranger to my eyes! (C'mon, what?! Unh, Ahh!)


[Chorus: (Wyclef & Pras) {Pras}]
Strummin' my pain with his fingers, yo! (One time!)
Singing my life with his words...Two times! (Two times!) {Come on!}

Killing Me Softly With His Song...Killing Me Softly! {Yo! Unh-uh! Unh-unh-
unh-unh!}
With His Song, telling my whole life! {Ha! Unh, unh!}

With his words, Killing Me...Softly! Yo, yo...Yo! Yo! Yo! Yo!
{Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo-Yo, unh!}
With His...Song! (Yo L-Boogie!) (Throw 'em off the bridge!) [Wyclef]


[Bridge]


[Chorus x1]
