I'll Call You Back Later
Gloria Barnes
Nah, I was in your bedroom
And you was sitting in the den
Then I heard a phone ringing
I thought it was just a friend
Oh, you picked up, oh, your phone, na, baby, and I picked up mine
We must have picked up the telephone, baby, at the very same time
Before I could say hello
I heard a woman's voice
She was talking to you baby
Telling you that you're the man of her choice
And you said I'll call you back later
I'll call you back later, baby
I I I’ll call you back later
I I I can't talk to you now
Hey, hey, baby
You that I started, back in that day, to hang on my phone
But then yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I changed my mind
'Cause if she, that little girl of yours, was bold enough to call
Don't you know that I, oh wow, I was smart enough to stay on the line
Nah, I don’t blame her, no, I blame you
'Cause you just think that you can do what you wanna do
That she might a woman lonely and sad
But you gotta show me some respect, I got my pride
And when you said I'll call you back later”
I'll call you back later, baby
I’ll call you back later
I I I can't talk to you now
Hey, hey, baby
You know I don't like it
And you think that I’d be blasting your woman
If I did I’d let you know
That you gotta be a man, oh, don’t be a mouse
And I don’t want your women calling at my house
You better get your women, baby, onto self control
Don't you know those girls of yours are just a little too old?
Baby can't you dig it?
I'm just telling you like it is
