[Verse 1]
Natty Jay got soft hands
Too soft for the bar
Weight feel rough
Like gravel in a jar

He wraps them slow
Looks left, looks right
Roy on the bench
With that sharp-eyed sight

Jay flexes fingers
Then pulls them back
Says, "I need gloves"
Keeps staring at the rack

Roy just smirks
Doesn't say a word
Jay acts tough
But the plan gets heard

[Pre-Chorus]
One more set
He can’t pretend
Every rep hits back
Every grip will bend

He wants that cushion
Wants that feel
But Roy's right there
Making it real

[Chorus]
Gloves, gloves, Natty Jay
(Gloves, gloves, Natty Jay)
Roy is watching
So he walks away

Gloves, gloves, Natty Jay
(Gloves, gloves, Natty Jay)
Soft hands, hard bar
Not today

[Verse 2]
He clears his throat
Picks up the plate
Tries that proud face
But it's a little late

The knurl bites in
He winces once
Roy leans back
Like, "Say it, son"

Jay near whispers
"Maybe next time"
Roy points at the chalk
"Earn that climb"

So he grips it tight
Barehand brave
Then drops that look
Like, "Please, save"

[Pre-Chorus]
One more set
He can’t pretend
Every rep hits back
Every grip will bend

He wants that cushion
Wants that feel
But Roy's right there
Making it real

[Chorus]
Gloves, gloves, Natty Jay
(Gloves, gloves, Natty Jay)
Roy is watching
So he walks away

Gloves, gloves, Natty Jay
(Gloves, gloves, Natty Jay)
Soft hands, hard bar
Not today

[Bridge]
Roy finally nods
Hands him the pair
Jay smiles wide
Like nobody's there

Then Roy laughs
"Not for show"
Jay slips them on
And steals the glow

[Chorus]
Gloves, gloves, Natty Jay
(Gloves, gloves, Natty Jay)
Roy is watching
So he walks away

Gloves, gloves, Natty Jay
(Gloves, gloves, Natty Jay)
Soft hands, hard bar
Not today
