Tamia
Can’t Go For That

[Intro]
Ooh
Ooh
Oh, ooh, ooh (Woo, woo!)

[Verse 1]
Why you got an attitude? (Hmm)
Why you actin' all foolish
When you see me out in the street, boy? (Hmm)
You wanna embarrass me, call me names, slap my face until
Till you see my friends come (Ooh)
Then, you wanna try to console me?
Oh, but they already know, boy (They already know, boy)
'Cause, for the last week, I've been in the house and I've cried and cried

[Chorus]
I can't go for that, no, no (Oh, yeah)
No can do, I can't go for that, no, no (Oh, no, no, no)
No can do, I can't go for that, no, no (Mmm)
No can do, I can't go for that (No)
Can't go for that, can't go for that (No, no, no, no)

[Verse 2]
Now, you're bringin' me flowers (Hmm)
You say you got it together
Soon as I let my guard down (Ooh)
Oh, there you go again in my grill till I call the cops
Then, you wanna chill out and say (Mmm)
I'm the one who's buggin' (Ooh)
But, no, no, it's you, you see (No, no, it's you, you see)
Each, every time I go out, you come grabbing all over me (Ooh)
[Chorus]
I can't go for that, no, no (I can't)
No can do, I can't go for that, no, no (No, no, no, no, no, no)
No can do, I can't go for that, no, no (I can't go for that)
No can do, I can't go for that (I can't go for that)
Can't go for that, can't go for that

[Bridge]
Why you trippin'?
Get your hands off me (Get 'em off me, yeah)
Why you illin'? (Woo)
I'm supposed to be your Nubian queen (I'm supposed to be your Nubian, oh, baby, your Nubian)
Oh, oh, why you trippin'? (Woah)
Get your hands off me (Ooh, yeah)
Why you illin'? (Why, why, why?)
I'm supposed to be your Nubian queen (Oh, baby, your, I'm supposed to be your Nubian queen, oh)

[Chorus]
I can't go for that, no, no (I can't go)
No can do, I can't go for that, no, no (I can't go for that)
No can do, I can't go for that, no, no (I can't go for that)
No can do, I can't go for that (Woah)
Can't go for that, can't go for that (Oh)
I can't go for that, no, no (Puttin' your hands on me)
No can do, I can't go for that, no, no (Always tryin' to disrespect me)
No can do, I can't go for that, no, no (No, no)
No can do, I can't go for that (No, no)
Can't go for that, can't go for that (No!)
(Yeah, yeah, I can't go for that)
