Lyrics

(Usher, Usher, Usher)
Oh-oh-oh
Papers
Oh-oh-oh
Papers
I can't get to work on time
Can't believe the words to her I just said
But who the hell argue and fight
Like dogs at 6 in the morning? (In the mornin)
I know it's gonna be some more sh** tonight, hm-oh
Our pastor's calling
Telling me I did went too far and
I'm seen around town and my friends can't recognize me
'Cuz I took a chance on love (Love)
It's like (Like)
I'm dyin (Ooh dyin)
For you I gave my heart
And turned my back against the world
'Cause you were my girl, girl, girl
I done damn near lost my mama
I done been through so much drama
I done turned into the man
That I never thought I'd be
I'm ready to sign them papers (Papers)
Papers (Papers)
I done took all I can take (Papers)
But you leave me no options girl
I can't deny how much I love you
I done gave up everything I had to
As hard as it is I'm afraid I gotta say
I'm ready to sign them papers, papers
Papers, papers, papers
I done took all I can take
But you leave me no options girl
Oh-oh-oh
Papers
Oh-oh-oh
Papers
I'm losin my mind
Can't figure out who's wrong or right
I know it's you I love
But then I also know it's you I don't like
You claim you hate who I was
But that's the reason you here now
You think I don't know what's up
But sweetheart that's what ruined us
I ain't afraid to say I got needs
But the only time you here for me
Is when the bottles popping and everything is sweet
But I (Listen)
I'm tired of sleeping in the other room spending them long nights
Trying to figure out what in the hell
In my heart I ain't do right (Ooh for you)
For you I gave my heart
And turned my back against the world
Back against the world
'Cause you were my girl, girl, girl
I done damn near lost my mama
Girl, mama
I done been through so much drama
I done turned into the man
That I never thought I'd be
Never thought I would be
I'm ready to sign them papers
Papers, papers, papers
I done took all I can take
But you leave me no options girl
I can't deny how much I love you
That I love you
I done gave up everything I had to
Everything I had to
As hard as it is I'm afraid I gotta say
I'm afraid I gotta say
I'm ready to sign them papers, papers
Papers, papers
Papers
I done took all I can take
But you leave me no options girl
I done took all I can take
Oh-oh-oh
Papers
Oh-oh-oh
Papers
Ready, ready, ready, ready
All my fellas up in here
If you had enough and you're ready to sign say
Ready, ready, ready, ready
I'm ready, yes I am
All my ladies if you're sick and tired
And you're ready to sign, say
Ready, ready, ready, ready
Oh, I can't keep living this life
I'm fixing to leave it for the last time, I'm
Ready, ready, ready, ready
I done damn near lost my mama
I done been through so much drama
I done turned into the man
That I never thought I'd be
I'm ready to sign them papers
(Papers, papers, papers)
I done took all I can take
But you leave me no options girl
I can't deny how much I love you
I done gave up everything I had to
As hard as it is I'm afraid I gotta say
I'm ready to sign them papers, papers
(Papers, papers)
I done took all I can take (Papers)
But you leave me no options girl
