Baby, oh baby
 I know we had an argument and all
 Ooh babe
 And I must have said some pretty foul shit but
 Mmm, mmm
 I just want you to know that I ain't mean none of that
 Baby, baby
 None of it
 
 Now I was supposed to be a man about it
 Shoulda never left your side
 No way, no how
 Put too many years in this relationship
 And it's not that serious for us to split
 Now I admit sometimes I make mistakes
 But still I appreciate the love we make
 Stop at the door and put your bags back down
 Now baby please can we work this out
 
 Now I might say you can walk
 (But I don't mean it)
 And I might name call
 (I don't mean it)
 I may pull some silly stunts
 (Uhm mmm)
 But that's just a front, I don't mean it
 (Now wait a minute hear me out)
 Now I may holler at you
 (I don't mean it)
 And I may tell you we're through
 (But I don't mean it, no, no)
 May give you looks that can kill
 (Can kill)
 But it's not for real
 (Not for real)
 I don't mean it
 (I don't mean it hey)
 
 Now I was supposed to be more understanding
 Instead of tryin to be so damn demandin
 Baby I'm willing to drop my ego
 And do the things I should have done and more
 See I know that I can be a better man
 Girl all you gotta do is take my hand
 Promise me this time
 I'm goin all the way
 And show you all the reasons why you stayed
 
 Now I might say you can walk
 (But I don't mean it, no, no)
 And I might name call
 (Girl I don't mean it)
 I may pull some silly stunts
 (Ooh yeah)
 But that's just a front, I don't mean it
 (Listen baby)
 Now I may holler at you
 (But I don't mean it)
 And I may tell you we're through
 (Girl you should know, I don't mean it)
 May give you looks that can kill
 (Um mmm)
 But it's not for real
 I don't mean it
 (Come here girl)
 
 See I never meant
 To break you down
 And make you cry, make you cry
 Oh please baby please
 Turn back around
 Don't you say goodbye, say goodbye
 Sometimes I know that
 I can take it
 Just a little bit too far
 But yo my heart is good
 Heart is good
 So baby you don't have to worry
 You're gonna see a change
 Girl you know I love ya
 Even though I may say
 
 Now I might say you can walk
 (I don't mean it)
 And I might name call
 (But I don't mean it)
 I may pull some silly stunts
 (Hey)
 But that's just a front
 (Hey, hey)
 I don't mean it
 (I don't mean it, I don't mean it)
 Now I may holler at you
 (When I'm hollerin' at you)
 And I may tell you we're through
 (I never mean it when I say we're through)
 May give you looks that can kill
 (Kill)
 But it's not for real
 (Real)
 I don't mean it
 (I don't mean it)
 
 Now I might say you can walk
