But you been sleepin' and you're creepin', babe
But you been creepin' and you're sleepin', baby

It's Friday night and I've been freakin' out
900 times, I know I called your house
So many times your momma cursed me out
But I'm not sorry

Saturday mornin', I ain't slept at all
I smelled her perfume and your alcohol
They say that you and her have had a ball
Don't you dare lie to me

I know I'm gettin' the runaround
I know that you sleep around
So don't try and play it down
I know you're givin' it, I know she's gettin' it

I'm gettin' the runaround
I know that you sleep around
So don't try and play it down
I know you're givin' it, I know she's gettin' it

I grabbed my keys and I jumped in my ride
I may be hurt but I ain't gonna cry
Just wanna find out what you did last night
Before I leave you

I found her number and I know her name
I gotta front this girl, make her explain
I can't believe she dipped into my thing
Yet she's getting over

I'm gettin' the runaround
I know that you sleep around
So don't try and play it down
I know you're givin' it, I know she's gettin' it

I'm gettin' the runaround
I know that you sleep around
So don't try and play it down
I know you're givin' it, I know she's gettin' it

It took a lot for me to give you all my loving, yeah
And just to think I gave you everything for nothing
I tried my best to satisfy you
All the times that I stood right by you
I think that I'll be better on my own, oh baby

Oh baby, oh baby I know your givin' it, I know she's gettin' it

But you been sleepin' and you're creepin' babe
But you been creepin' and you're sleepin' baby

I'm gettin' the runaround
I know that you sleep around
So don't try and play it down
I know you're givin' it, I know she's gettin' it

I'm gettin' the runaround
I know that you sleep around
So don't try and play it down
I know you're givin' it, I know she's gettin' it

Now I can't believe that you did this to me
Don't try and play it down
Well, you better leave
I know you're givin' it, I know she's gettin' it

You go tell what's her name that it isn't a game
So don't try and play it down
Boy you messed up your thang
I know you're givin' it, I know she's gettin' it

I'm gettin' the runaround
I know that you sleep around
So don't try and play it down
I know you're givin' it, I know she's gettin' it

I'm gettin' the runaround
I know that you sleep around
