Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Verse one, when we begun
You know you had a sister all sprung with your tongue
I thought you were my baby now
When we laid, you always knew the right words to say
We got engaged to be married the very next May
[Verse 2]
As the time moved on, the love we had got torn
Used to love me from dusk till dawn
But now you're trippin' from night till morn
Now you're wantin' the change
I'm sick of you playin' these games
I'm tellin' you one thing
You won't get it back, you won't get it back this way
[Verse 3]
Gave you my love and I can't get it back
Gave you all my time and I can't get it back
Now the ring that you gave me, you can't have it back
'Cause it's just not going down like that
Gave you my time and I can't get it back
Gave you all my love and I can't get it back
Now the things that you gave me, you want them back
But it's just not going down like that
[Verse 4]
Verse two, now we're through
Too much time's been wasted on you
But it's cool, put the glass shoe on another young fool
I accept that you crept
And couldn't take the heat so you stepped, now I'm set
Don't come back for nothing that you left
[Verse 5]
As the time moved on, the love we had got torn
Used to love me from dusk till dawn
But now you're trippin' from night till morn
Now you're wantin' the change
I'm sick of you playin' these games
I'm tellin' you one thing
That you won't get it back, you won't get it back this way
[Verse 6]
Gave you my love and I can't get it back
Gave you all my time and I can't get it back
Now the ring that you gave me, you can't have it back
'Cause it's just not going down like that
Gave you my time and I can't get it back
Gave you all my love and I can't get it back
Now the things that you gave me, you want them back
But it's just not going down like that
[Verse 7]
Boy, let me tell you this
Don't you know you can't get back
What you put in this relationship?
That includes this ring
'Cause I know I can't get back
(All my kissin', huggin', lovin' are gone) Ha, ha, check it
[Verse 8]
We had a happy environment, I put all this time in
I gave you my all and even met your requirements
Now you're goin' out cheatin' and you're comin' home smilin'
You can say what you want but you ain't gettin' this diamond
(You ain't gettin' this ring back) You tiptoed
(You ain't gettin' this ring back) Just keep ya zip closed
(Did you really think that) That you can take me for a ride?
If you knock on my door, again then we're gonna collide
[Verse 9]
Gave you my love and I can't get it back
Gave you all my time and I can't get it back
Now the ring that you gave me, you can't have it back
'Cause it's just not going down like that
Gave you my time and I can't get it back
Gave you all my love and I can't get it back
Now the things that you gave me, you want them back
But it's just not going down like that
[Verse 10]
Gave you my love and I can't get it back
Gave you all my time and I can't get it back
Now the ring that you gave me, you can't have it back
'Cause it's just not going down like that
Gave you my time and I can't get it back
Gave you all my love and I can't get it back
Now the things that you gave me, you want them back
But it's just not going down like that
