What'cha tryin'a do to my heart
What'cha tryin'a do to my heart
You go around tellin' lies
You fool around with the other guys
What'cha tryin'a do to my heart

You better run
You better hide
You better leave from my side

What'cha tryin'a do to my soul
What'cha tryin'a do to my soul
Everythin' I had was yours
And now I'm closing all the doors
What'cha tryin'a do to my soul

You better run, run baby
You better hide, hide baby
You better leave from my side, yeah

I love you girl, I love you so
Can't you see it, don't you know
I can't stand your alibis
You're tellin' lies, they drive me wild
Mercy, I can't stand any more

(Instrumental Break)

Ooh, what're you tryin'a do to my head
What're you tryin'a do to my head
Now I gotta draw that line
You're not gonna take my mind
What're you tryin'a do to my head

You better run, run baby
You better hide, run away from me
You better leave from my side
Can't stand any more
Leave me alone, woman
Go away, aaaggghhhh
Have mercy, I need ya
I need, aaaggghhhh
