Sure, don't have to take that from him, baby

Ooh, listen

Look at how he treats you, baby

Should have listened when your momma said

"Girl, you don't need him if you can't see him on the weekends"

You need to listen to your intuition

You need to leave before you heart gets broken, baby

And when you page him and he don't call back, ain't no excuse

You got a feeling that he has another friend

He spends time with you now and then

The third time, baby, shame on you

Just how long are you gonna sit back and ah play the fool?
