Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Yeah

I admit, you've got the biggest

Brown eyes and ya know

How to part your lips

To tantalize, sure

[Verse 2]

Yeah

You can get any man you want

Go and ya do it

And don't say you don't know, ya do

[Verse 3]

Well, baby, I ain't gonna eat out

My heart anymore

I ain't gonna eat out

My heart anymore, so quit it

[Verse 4]

I love you, I love you, I do, girl

But ya ain't gonna cheat on me

I need ya, I need ya, I do, girl

Choose, is it him or me?

(Is it him or me?)

[Verse 5]

Yeah

Just 'cause I ain't been sayin' girl

You should be ashamed

Of what I been seein', bad

[Verse 6]

Yeah

You better watch your step

Or, girl, you can bet you're gonna

Lose the best thing you've ever had

[Verse 7]

Well, baby, I ain't gonna eat out

My heart anymore

I ain't gonna eat out

My heart anymore, quit it

[Verse 8]

I love you, I love you, I do, girl

But ya ain't gonna cheat on me

I need ya, I need ya, I really do, girl

Choose, is it him or me?

(Is it him or me?)

[Verse 9]

Well, baby, I ain't gonna eat out

My heart anymore

I ain't gonna eat out

My heart anymore

I ain't gonna eat out

My heart anymore

I ain't gonna eat out

My heart anymore
