Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you, say, "Baby I love you"
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You acting kind of shady, ain't callin' me baby
Why the sudden change?
Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you, say, "Baby I love you"
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You acting kind of shady, ain't callin' me baby
Betta say my name
Any other day I would call, you would say
"Baby how's your day?" But today it ain't the same
Every other word is "Uh-huh", "Yeah okay"
Could it be that you are at the crib wit another lady?
If you took it there, first of all let me say
I am not the one to sit around and be played
So prove yourself to me, that I'm the girl that you cravin'
Why don't you say the things that you said to me yesterday?
I know you sayin' that I'm assuming things
Something's goin' down that's the way it seems
Shouldn't be no reason, why you're acting strange?
Nobody's holding you back from me
'Cause I know how you usually do
When you sayin' everything to me times two
Why can't you just tell the truth?
If somebody's there then tell me who
Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you, say, "Baby I love you"
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You acting kind of shady, ain't callin' me baby
Why the sudden change?
Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you, say, "Baby I love you"
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You acting kind of shady, ain't callin' me baby
Betta say my name
What is up wit this, tell the truth who you with?
How would you like it if I came over wit my clique?
Don't try to change it now, say you got to bounce
When two seconds ago you said you just got in the house
It's hard to believe that you were home by yourself
When I just heard the voice, heard the voice of someone else
Just this question, why do you feel you got to lie?
Gettin' caught up in your game, where you cannot say my name
I know you sayin' that I'm assuming things
Something's goin' down that's the way it seems
Shouldn't be no reason, why you're acting strange?
If nobody's holding you back from me
'Cause I know how you usually do
When you sayin' everything to me times two
Why can't you just tell the truth?
If somebody's there tell me who
Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you, say, "Baby I love you"
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You acting kind of shady, ain't callin' me baby
Why the sudden change?
Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you, say, "Baby I love you"
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You acting kind of shady, ain't callin' me baby
Betta say my name
Where my ladies at?
Please say that, c'mon
All the girls say
I can't hear ya
All the ladies say
All the girls say
Break it down
Uh, uh, uh
D.C, take it to the bridge, c'mon
I know you sayin' I'm assuming things
Something's goin' down that's the way it seems
Shouldn't be no reason why you're acting strange?
If nobody's holding you back from me
'Cause I know how you usually do
When you sayin' everything to me times two
Why can't you just tell the truth?
If somebody's there then tell me who
Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you, say, "Baby I love you"
If you ain't runnin' game (call me your boo)
Say my name, say my name
You acting kind of shady, ain't callin' me baby
Why the sudden change?
Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you, say, "Baby I love you"
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You acting kind of shady, ain't callin' me baby
Betta say my name
Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you, say, "Baby I love you"
If you ain't runnin' game
