Lyrics
[Intro]
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh
Where you at, boy? Where you at, boy?
[Verse 1]
Oh, I've been callin' you all night long
And I'm becoming best friends with the dial tone
'Cause you're not pickin' up the phone
I called your cell and your home, and still, I sit here alone
Boy, you got me wonderin'
Where you at, where you goin' and where you been?
Here I go again, dialin' your number
Thinkin' how you just won't pick up the phone
[Chorus]
Pick up the phone, pick up the phone
Pick up the phone, boy, pick up the phone
Pick up the phone, pick up the phone
Pick up the phone, boy, pick up the phone, pick up
I know you see me on your caller ID
So pick up the P-H-O-N-E
Pick up the phone, boy, pick up the phone
Aye-yi-yi-yi
[Refrain]
I said, you know it would be nice (That's right)
If you could call somebody (Call somebody)
And let somebody know (Let them know)
That you're alright, ooh
[Verse 2]
You know you're dead wrong (Yes, you are)
For sendin' me straight to voicemail
'Cause if it was my phone
And I did the same, you'd be raisin' all kind of hell (Ooh-ooh)
Called the second time, it goes (Brr-boo)
Like you on the other line
Run game on a rookie 'cause I'm too sharp for that
Why don't you pick up the phone?
[Chorus]
Pick up the phone, pick up the phone
Pick up the phone, boy, pick up the phone
Pick up the phone, pick up the phone
Pick up the phone, boy, pick up the phone, pick up
I know you see me on your caller ID
So pick up the P-H-O-N-E (Pick it up now, pick it up, oh)
Pick up the phone, boy, pick up the phone
Aye-yi-yi-yi
[Refrain]
I said, you know it would be nice
If you could call somebody
And let somebody know
That you're alright, ooh
[Bridge]
Hey now, don't act like that
I know you got my message, boy, call me back (Call me back)
Hey now, don't act wrong (Come on)
Be a real G and pick up the phone (Pick up the phone)
I said hey now, don't act like that
I know you got my message, boy, call me back
Hey now, don't act wrong
Be a real G and pick up the phone (Jazze, can we keep it right here? Hey)
Hey now, don't act like that
I know you got my message, boy, call me back
Hey now, don't act wrong (Would you be a real G and pick up the phone?)
Be a real G and pick up the phone (Pick up the phone)
I said hey now, don't act like that
I know you got my message, boy, call me back (I'm all alone)
Hey now, don't act wrong (Pick up the phone)
Be a real G and pick up the phone
[Chorus]
Pick up the phone, pick up the phone
Pick up the phone, boy, pick up the phone
Pick up the phone, pick up the phone
Pick up the phone, boy, pick up the phone, pick up (Please pick up the phone)
I know you see me on your caller ID
So pick up the P-H-O-N-E
Pick up the phone, boy, pick up the phone
Aye-yi-yi-yi (Aye-yi-yi-yi, yeah)
[Chorus]
Pick up the phone, pick up the phone (If you could call somebody)
Pick up the phone, boy, pick up the phone (And let somebody know)
Pick up the phone, pick up the phone (That you're alright tonight)
Pick up the phone, boy, pick up the phone, pick up (I said, it would be nice)
I know you see me on your caller ID (If you could call somebody)
So pick up the P-H-O-N-E (And let somebody know)
Pick up the phone, boy, pick up the phone ('Cause I need you, yeah)
Aye-yi-yi-yi
[Outro]
Sitting here by the phone
Waiting for you to call
I'm really getting tired of worrying
Baby, baby, baby
