[Verse 1]
It's not open to discussion anymore
He's out again tonight and I'm alone once more
He's all I have worth waiting for
But baby plays around

[Verse 2]
And so it seems I've always been the last to know
To hold on to that boy, I had to let him go
I wish to God I didn't love him so
'Cause baby plays around

[Bridge]
I try to be strong to hold onto my pride
He doesn't even know it's wrong
How much I hurt inside and heaven know I've tried
But baby plays around, just a plaything
It's hard to reconcile the facts I'm facing

[Verse 3]
It's not open to discussion anymore
He walks those shiny streets, I walk the worn out floor
He's all I have worth livin' for
Baby plays, baby plays around
