[Chorus]
I said yes to your number and yes to you dating me
Yes we can be together but you gotta wait for me
The first time I said no
Its like I never said yes (like I never said yes)
I said yes we can be together yes you can stay with me
But when I say no not tonight you acting so ungratefully
The first time I said no its like I never said yes

You was on the wall I was with my crew
You was watching me baby
I was watching you
Slowly you walked over I maintained my cool
You said hello to me I said hello to you
You asked me where I'm from
I asked you what you do
You some how intrigued me
I thought you were so cool
Somewhere between hi and goodbye I felt so comfortable
I felt like we could talk all night so I gave my number to you

[Chorus]

Certainly you can call me baby (baby)
I love to here from you
Yes of course you can come and see me boy
Want to get to know you more
Sure I'm feeling you
No baby not yet we can't take that next step
Why you getting so upset boy you
Act as though I never told you yes before you are so ungrateful um um um

You was at my house
I was sitting on my couch
You was really bugging so I told you to get out
I had been misjudging you you had a lot of nerve you to damn old
To be so immature I hope you learn
You said I move to slow
I showed you to the door
You said you'd call me later
I said don't call no more
It is cool if you can't wait for me
I'm glad you let me know
Cause you showed me your true face baby the first time I said no

[Chorus: x2]
