Don't Ask Me Why

Yeah, yeah

This song is for brothers who got mouthy women

I'ma tell you what to do if you follow the rules

These are the rules of engagement

So as you listen to this song

I want you to sit back, relax

And say bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye

Don't ask me why

Bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye

Don't ask me why

When your lady actin' up and she actin' a fool

Pay attention, little homie, this is what you should do

First, get a bag when she sleep in the bed

Then wash all your clothes, better be quiet, I said

Get to packin' up shit, make sure your money is good

All your clothes and your special belongings, forget your bud

Leave the movies and the furniture, the pictures and food

New destination, never need nothin' to mess up the mood

Gather your thangs smooth, let her sleep in the groove

Remember, be quiet 'cause don't let her hear what you do

And there is nothin' for you to prove, don't even call up your dude

'Cause he could be a spy, you know how it is when they coo

Now put the car in neutral, roll it out to the street

You gots to be so discrete when you makin' your retreat

And if you are on your feet, then call a cab on the corner

But if you got you a sale, then step ahead on the soldiers

I said bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye

Don't ask me why

Bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye

Don't ask me why

Bye, and bye-bye, and bye-bye, and bye-bye

Don't ask me why

Bye, and bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye

Don't ask me why

Now you ready to roll, ready to go, come on

And as you get away, praise Allah, we're gone

No more fussin' and cussin' and bustin' the dishes and fightin'

No more arguin', callin' and stallin' and brawlin' and cryin'

No more "Where are you? When are you? Is you or ain't you a man?"

No more fuckin' and cheatin' and creepin' and sleepin' with your man

No more attitude, mad at you, rad at you, sad at you, you

No more latitude, bad at you, mad at you, glad at you, you

No more callin' the po-po and lyin' and you in jail

No more callin' to collect, tryna beg her for bail

So now you free as a bird, word, what should you do?

Gotta make sure you got some identification, stay cool

Stay true to yourself, nobody else will help

Now get a room for the week to go to sleep in the temp

Turn the phone off, you the boss, it's her loss

And just remember to say your prayers and all

And after that, say

Bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye

Don't ask me why

Bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye

Don't ask me why

Bye, and bye-bye, and bye-bye, and bye-bye

Don't ask me why

Bye, and bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye

Don't ask me why

Next thing that need to happen, get an apartment that's cheap

Don't even answer her calls, balls, and don't be weak

And she'll say anything to get you, even say that she sick

But homeboy, don't believe that shit

Next thing is forgive her without tellin' her that, that, that

Now get a place to regroup and go get you a hat

Now get an outfit and a suit and go to the place of your choice

But make sure you don't tell your boys

After you mingle, you a single lady, come to you

Real women recognize real men, this is true

Get your game on, show her you was smart as a whip

And if the woman you left calls, don't answer the bitch

Yeah

These are the rules of engagement (Yes, indeed)

You don't need to sit around and listen to the yap, yap, yap, yappin'

The this, this, that, and the other

Young brothers, take a message from me

Bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye

Don't ask me why

Bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye

Don't ask me why

Bye, and bye-bye, and bye-bye, and bye-bye

Don't ask me why

Bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye

Don't ask me why

You are the weakest link

No more arguin', cussin' and bustin' the dishes and fightin'

Bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye

Don't ask me why

Bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye

Don't ask me why

You know what you did

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Keep on rollin', brother

Don't answer the phone, baby, don't answer the phone

That's her on the line, she callin' you

Blockin' her number, cuz

This goes for women too

If your dude is actin' up, you know what you need to do

And that's just the way that it is, man, it's worldwide, man

Worldwide, baby, worldwide

Bye-buh-buh-buh-buh-buh
