Hello?
Aaron says he’s not at home (repeats)

[Intro]
Hey girl, hey girl, hey, hey, hey girl. Oow
Ooow, oh (repeat twice)

Hey baby I’m having
A real bad day
So baby, please go away
I’m not the only black man
That you’ve played
So baby, please just
Save your breath, don’t call today
I know already
What you're gonna say
You’re gonna say, "I rocked
Your world"
Oh honey you’re sexy
Listen carefully, do yourself a favor
And don’t call me no more

[Chorus]
Pick up the phone
I know you’re home
I need to talk to you baby, yeah
(I don’t wanna talk to you)
Pick up the phone
I’m so alone

Please Aaron, talk to me
Now, now, now!

Aaron says he’s not at home. Hello!
Aaron says he’s not at home. Hello!

Hey, hey lady, come on
Give your love to me
Pretty little lady I want to
Set your love free, yeah
But I saw you speaking
To the next man

You lied to me, cuz baby, baby, baby
I thought I was your man
You're not all that anyway (you’re not
All that)

You probably had a different man
Everyday
Baby don’t even try to step to me
(Cuz if you do)

I’ll laugh in your face (I’ll laugh)
Another woman done took your place
Baby, don’t call me no more

[Chorus]

(repeat twice)
