Lyrics

[Verse 1]

(Ooh-ah-ooh

Ooh-ah-ooh

Ooh-ah-ooh

Ooh-ah-ooh)

[Verse 2]

You've got a habit of leaving me

(Ooh-ah-ooh)

You've got a habit of deserting me

[Verse 3]

Sometimes I cry

Sometimes I'm so sad

Sometimes I'm so glad, so glad

[Verse 4]

You could grow up if you wanted to, wanted to, wanted to

Wanted to

Wanted to

[Verse 5]

(Ooh

Ooh-ah-ooh)

You've got a habit of leaving me

(Ooh-ah-ooh)

You've got a habit of deserting me

[Verse 6]

Sometimes I cry

Sometimes I'm so sad

Sometimes I'm so glad, so glad

[Verse 7]

You could grow up if you wanted to, wanted to, wanted to

Wanted to

Wanted to

[Verse 8]

(Ooh

Ooh)

Yeah

Give it up

Give it up

(Ooh

Ooh)

[Verse 9]

Yeah

Yeah

So sad

So sad
