Lyrics

[Intro]

Darkchild '99

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name

If no one is around you, say, "Baby, I love you"

If you ain't runnin' game

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name

You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me baby

Why the sudden change?

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name

If no one is around you, say, "Baby, I love you"

If you ain't runnin' game

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name

You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me baby

Better say my name

[Verse 1]

Any other day, I would call, you would say (Say)

"Baby, how's your day?" But today, it ain't the same

Every other word is, "Uh-huh, yeah, okay" (Huh, okay)

Could it be that you are at the crib with another lady? (Another lady)

If you took it there, first of all, let me say (Say)

I am not the one to sit around and be played

So prove yourself to me, if I'm the girl that you claim (Claim)

Why don't you say the things that you said to me yesterday? (Yesterday)

[PreChorus]

I know you say that I am assumin' things

Something's goin' down, that's the way it seems

Shouldn't be no reason why you're actin' strange

Nobody's holdin' you back from me

'Cause I know how you usually do

Where you're sayin' everything to me times two

Why can't you just tell the truth?

If somebody's there, then tell me who

[Chorus]

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

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name

You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me baby

Why the sudden change?

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name

If no one is around you, say, "Baby, I love you" (Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah)

If you ain't runnin' game

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name (No, no, no, no)

You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me baby

Better say my name

[Verse 2]

What is up with this? Tell the truth, who you with? (With)

How would you like it if I came over with my clique?

Don't try to change it now, sayin' you gotta bounce (Bounce)

When two seconds ago, said you just got in the house (The house)

It's hard to believe that you are at home by yourself (By yourself)

When I just heard the voice, heard the voice of someone else

Just this question, why do you feel you gotta lie? (Feel, lie)

Gettin' caught up in your game

When you cannot say my name (Say my name)

[PreChorus]

I know you say that I am assumin' things

Something's goin' down, that's the way it seems

Shouldn't be no reason why you're actin' strange

If nobody's holdin' you back from me

'Cause I know how you usually do

Where you're sayin' everything to me times two

Why can't you just tell the truth?

If somebody's there, then tell me who

[Chorus]

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

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name (Say my name)

You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me baby (Say my name)

Why the sudden change? (Sudden change)

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name (Say my name)

If no one is around you, say, "Baby, I love you" (If ain't nothin' changed, oh)

If you ain't runnin' game (Baby, say my name)

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name

You actin' kinda shady (Ooh, oh)

Ain't callin' me baby, better say my name

[Verse 3]

Where my ladies at?

Yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah

Please say that, come on

[Bridge]

Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah (Yeah, yeah-yeah)

Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah (Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah)

All the girls say

Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah (Yeah, yeah)

I can't hear you

Yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah

All the ladies say

Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)

Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah (Yeah-yeah, yeah)

All the girls say

Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah (Yeah-yeah, yeah)

Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah

Break it down

Oh, ooh, oh (Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah)

Uh, uh, uh, DC, take it to the bridge, come on

[PreChorus]

I know you say that I am assumin' things

Something's goin' down, that's the way it seems

Shouldn't be no reason why you're actin' strange

Nobody's holdin' you back from me

'Cause I know how you usually do

Where you're sayin' everything to me times two

Why can't you just tell the truth?

If somebody's there, then tell me who

[Chorus]

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)

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name

You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me baby (And tell me what you like to do)

Why the sudden change?

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name

If no one is around you, say, "Baby, I love you"

If you ain't runnin' game

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name (Say my name)

You actin' kinda shady (Shady)

Ain't callin' me baby (Baby)

Better say my name

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name

If no one is around you, say, "Baby, I love you" (Say, "Baby, I love you")

If you ain't runnin' game

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name (Say my name)

You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me baby (Say my name)

Why the sudden change? (Yeah-yeah, yeah)

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name (Yeah-yeah, yeah)

If no one is around you, say, "Baby, I love you" (Yeah-yeah, yeah)

If you ain't runnin' game (Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Chorus]

Say my name, say my name (Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah)

You actin' kinda shady, ain't callin' me baby (Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah)

Better say my name

[Outro]

Thou shalt know she can't love you
