Monica - The First Night Lyrics
[JD:]
Baby baby tell me whats up? Can you hear me?
Or do I do I need to turn it up? (Huh huh)
Baby baby tell me whats up? Can you hear me?
Or do I do I need to turn it up? (Huh what)
Or do I do I need to turn it up? (Huh huh)
Baby baby tell me whats up? Can you hear me?
Or do I do I need to turn it up? (Huh what)
[Monica:]
Boy this evening was it only me
Feeling completly down to be open
Down to be open for some satisfaction
Didn't want to say yes, afraid of your reaction
I knew it was wrong, for feeling this way
Couldn't let go, it stayed on my mind
At the end of the night I had to decide, I was thinkin'...
I should make a move but I won't
I know your probly thinkin' something is wrong
Knowing if I do that it won't be right
I don't get down on the first night
I should make a move but I won't
I know your probly thinkin' something is wrong
Knowing if I do that it won't be right
I wanna get down, but not the first night
[Monica:]
We were chillin' watching your T.V.
I felt it was comin' the closer that you got to me
Wanted to touch you, wanted to kiss you
And some how in one night, discover I love you
Felt so right, but it felt so wrong
And look how we're carryin' on
Tryin' to say things to get me to stay
But my watch is telling me it's getting to late, I'm thinkin'...
I should make a move but I won't
I know your probly thinkin' something is wrong
Knowing if I do that it won't be right
I don't get down on the first night
If you, want me, you got to know me
And if you want my love (My love) you gotta wait my love
Ba Baby that's the way its got to be
Get to know me (Get to know me) so we can do this, Oooohhh
I should [echo]
I know your probably thinkin' [echo]
(I want I want babe)
Knowin' if I do [echo] (I want I want babe)
I don't get down, on the first night
I should make a move, but I won't
I know your probably thinkin' something is wrong
Knowing if I do that it won't be right
I wanna get down, but not the first night

Nowadays thee women make moves first that’s why men don’t be respecting them
Make him work for it ladies!!!
Great use of a Diana Ross Sample
that bop was the #1 song on billboard the week i was born and honestly,,, a whole vibe 😌✊🏼
Did Fatima Robinson choreograph this video?

In retrospect, this could of been a GAP commercial.
I got slapped so many times by my mom trying to imitate Monica’s eye rolling when this came out. 😂😂😂

One of my favorite Monica songs 👸🏽💪🏽💞🌹💋✨💯😻
Ayyyye 😍 7th grade year 🙌🏾
I love this song
If Monica and Aaliyah did a song together with them both dancing in their best in the video, it would've sold millions and millions.
2019 💕💕💕💕💕💕
My how music has changed. Lol
This video always gave me late 90's prom vibes. Like the venue you rent out to have the prom and then the afterparty.
This is the anti-hoe anthem.
I always loved this sample beat!!!❤️💜 Monica is soo gorgeous and still hotter.😍❤️
Love the bass line in this song
awesome
Back in the days when females wore baggy pants and still looked sxy asf! Not like these days where they look like little hoes!

Boy this evening was it only me
Feeling completely down to be open
Down to be open for some satisfaction
Didn't want to say yes, afraid of your reaction
I knew it was wrong, for feeling this way
Especially the thought of givin' in on the first date
Couldn't let go, it stayed on my mind
At the end of the night I had to decide, I was thinkin'...
I should make a move but I won't
I know your probably thinkin' something is wrong
Knowing if I do that it won't be right
I don't get down on the first night
I should make a move but I won't
And then you probably thinkin' something is wrong
Knowing if I do that it won't be right
I wanna get down, but not the first night
We was chillin' watching your T.V.
I felt it was comin' the closer that you got to me
Wanted to touch you, wanted to kiss you
And some how in one night, discover I love you
Felt so right, but it felt so wrong
And look how we're carryin' on
Tryin' to say things to get me to stay
But my watch is telling me it's getting to late, I'm thinkin'...
I should make a move but I won't
I know your probably thinkin' something is wrong
Knowing if I do that it won't be right
I don't get down on the first night
I should make a move but I won't
And then you probably thinkin' something is wrong
Knowing if I do that it won't be right
I wanna get down, but not the first night
And if you want my love (My love) you gotta wait my love
Ba Baby that's the way its got to be
Get to know me (Get to know me) so we can do this, Oooohhh
I should (echo)
I know your probably thinkin' (echo) (I want I want babe)
Knowin' if I do (echo) (I want I want babe)
I don't get down, on the first night
I should make a move, but I won't
I know your probably thinkin' something is wrong
Knowing if I do that it won't be right
I wanna get down, but not the first night
I should make a move but I won't
I know your probably thinkin' something is wrong
Knowing if I do that it won't be right
I don't get down on the first night
I should make a move but I won't
And then you probably thinkin' something is wrong
Knowing if I do that it won't be right
I wanna get down, but not the first night
Why ain't music the same as the 90s and early 2000s?
I was obsessed with this Artiste Monica in high school. Even found a girl who looked like her in school but the girl didn't want me! Hahahaha! Hard luck!
Them dance moves 😊 I still want the outfit with air forces 🤗
Forever my JAMMMMMMMMM
Best Gap Khakis ad ever....
October 2019💙
2019 OMG she is priceless
I don't care what anybody says since the late Whitney Houston's untimely demise Monica is arguably the best singer out here let's argue
HAPPY 39TH BIRTHDAY
MONICA ARNOLD
(OCTOBER 24, 2019)
Still listening in October 2019!?
I use to have this song on repeat
October 16, 2019... I'm still listening
When J.D decided to focus on other avenues R&B died, I still morn this great genre. is there some way we can revive it? i need these songs back in my life. trap rap is about to commit suicide off drugs, hoes and money... all the genres are merging and becoming a regurgitated mess... welp :(
Oct 2019 still here
Monica covered her tattoo on her left arm because it was too inappropriate for her young audience. I miss these days of modesty and DOPE TUNES! Miss this era so much when it was all about the music! 2019 still my jam!❤️
Mya wuda killed this beat with
Monica..
I always wished they did it togetha like a boy is mine wit brandy
Here after Keke Palmer sang this song on Elle game of song association.
still a bop in september 2019!
2019 😬
The dancer that plays Monica's love interest is gay and is a drug addict now living in Hollywood with HIV. He did lots of music videos. Sad.
John Edwards How do you know that is for sure him & what is his name?
lies....
@Mary Hodges
Go make a public email with yahoo or google or hotmail and I will send you receipts.. Yeah, just make a fake email specifically so I can show you proof, when done, give me the email and you will see I am telling the truth
@John Edwards how do u know it's him?
still luv it
This song was #1 on the BB Hot 100 the day I was born
I just noticed there’s no more bridges on music no more☹️
What else was playing back in the day with this?? Drop a link below
She shoulda made a move...lol.
That's a bad idea a lotta times. Guys would think she's a ho and drop her.
I guess you have a point, most of the world is religious. Point taken.
@cj hepburn My friend's daughter gives it up on the first night then wonders why her relationships don't last. And the ones that do last are with men who are pieces of shit.
This is Dupri? If do hats off. This guy can marry who he likes! Respec'!
wtf hapenned to music, this is the music i rock with to this day
the guy who plays Monica's man is so hot
Chile the girls get down 15 mins into the Netflix movie 2019 lmao
Back when a white t n khakis was a whole outfit
High school days! See all you young thot bots boppin to city girls and what not could NEVER understand this mentality. And this song was a bop!
This song is so underrated
I used to love this song. Memories on overload
This my shit 🎶🎶🕺🕺...
I most da time don't get down the frist night but my man Daddy yo omg he and I woops hizzle
I was pregnant with my son when this song came up....should have heeded the song. But, well 20 years later, he's a very well headed young man, things considering.
Anyways, this was and is still one of my many top jams back in the day.
Damn, I remember this song like it was yesterday.
#Reminiscing #DopeMusic #StillLitIn2019
The video and song are STILL amazing tbh.
Monica def not a dancer lol
Monica is da bomb.
Forever will be a BOP😍😍😍I rarely even listen to the shit on the radio. I prefer 90s music anyway😍😍😍😍
Love this song
This song is so catchy & addictive; i love it even after all those years.
Monica my top 5❤
JD was the Diddy of So So Def
Monica, Aaliyah, Brandy, Mya...this is when 90s Female R&B singers were naturally beautiful, no butt implants, no twerking, no ratchedness.
I love this song & video. The dance number was my favorite. I would kill this sound in a karaoke battle. Ijs
Does anyone know why Monica wears a white wrap on her upper left arm?????
Clovis Bessard she had got a tattoo and around that time in the 90s they were trying to keep her image clean (Clive Davis)
On my smartphone this looks brand new instead of 21 years old. 😃
I still love this! Classic!
according to whenwasiconcieved.com this was the top song when i was conceived lmaooo
God- going down memory lane almost brings me to tears ! I recall when this song was poppin" and I'm from a small town where there is a county fair every fall and it's a huge deal . This song was bumping from a few of the rides and every time I hear of it that's what I remember . Man ,those were good times 😭😭. It's crazy how Monica had to disguise her arm tat with that arm band - what does it matter ? Anyway I love Monica she's amazing now and she was back then as well
It's Bobby brown's "on our own" with different lyrics
I miss Aaliyah. Monica was always trying to be like her. I don’t mind just really miss her. These girls nowadays are tormented and if they don’t do it Hollywood says then they will never get a chance. Too bad the younger generation is it being raised that you don’t have to take your clothes off to be sexy
2019💯 always Monica
Shout-out Diana Ross
Man the video dance breaks were everything back then also!!!!
2019 still listening Sing Monica!
2019 and still know the lyrics and choreography
J.D did magic on this one, also goes to Usher's my way...timeless
Soon as seen this video and I had long hair I started rocking my hair just like Monica's
Even the biblical God ask questions.
