Lyrics

[Verse 1]
A man we passed just tried to
Stare me down
And when I looked at you
You looked at the ground
I don't know who he is
But I think that you do
Dag gum it, huh, who is he
And what is he to you?
[Verse 2]
Ay, yes, something in my heart
And in your eyes
That tells me he's not someone
Just passing by
And when you cleared your throat
Was that your cue?
Dag gum it, now, who is he
And what is he to you?
[Verse 3]
Who is he
And what is he to you?
[Verse 4]
And when I add the sum
Of you and me
I get so confused
I keep comin' up with three
You're much too much, too much, too much for one
And not enough for two, uh
Dag gum it, huh, who is he (Who is he?)
And what is he to you?
[Verse 5]
Now I know you think I'm one not much for my
My intuition
Yeah, is that what you really think
Or are you wishin'?
Before you wreck your old home
Be certain of the new
Dag gum it, now, who is he (Who is he?)
And what is he to you? Lemme know, lemme, ah
[Verse 6]
Dag gum it, huh, who is he (Who is he?)
And what is he to you?
[Verse 7]
Now, now, who is he
And what is he to you and you and you?
Come here, lemme talk to you, who is he
And what is he to you?
Lemme know what's goin' on
[Verse 8]
Come here now, who is he (Who is he?)
And what is he to you?
(Tell me, tell me) Tell me, who is he?
You gotta let me know, who is he (Who is he?)
(And what is he to you?) You gotta let me know
[Verse 9]
Treat me like some fool (Who is he? Who is he?)
(And what is he to you?) All up in my face
(Tell me, tell me, who is he?)
I never know how people want, asking why?
(Who is he, who is he, and what is he to you?)
(Tell me, tell me) Tell me, babe (Who is he?)
(Who is he, who is he, and what is he to you?)
(Tell me, tell me)
