Alright
Ooh-oh, yeah
I'll admit, I was wrong, what else can I say, girl?
Can't you blame my head and not my heart
I was drunk, I was gone, that don't make it right, but
Promise there were no feelings involved, mmh
She said, boy, tell me honestly
Was it real or just for show? (Yeah)
She said, save your apologies
Baby, I just gotta know
How long has this been goin' on?
You've been creepin' 'round on me
While you're callin' me, "baby"
How long has this been goin' on?
You've been actin' so shady (shady)
I've been feelin' it lately, baby
Ooh-ooh-ooh (yeah)
Ooh-ooh-hoo (encore)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-hoo-ooh-ooh
I'll admit (I'll admit), it's my fault (my fault), but you gotta believe me
When I say it only happened once, mmh
I try, and I try, but you'll never see that
You're the only one I wanna love, oh-yeah
She said, boy, tell me honestly
Was it real or just for show? (Yeah)
She said, save your apologies
Baby, I just gotta know
How long has this been goin' on? huh
You've been creepin' 'round on me (on me)
While you're callin' me, "baby"
How long has this been goin' on?
You've been actin' so shady (shady)
I've been feelin' it lately (lately), baby
Ooh-ooh-ooh (yeah)
Ooh-ooh-hoo (encore)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-hoo-ooh-ooh
How long has this been goin' on baby?
Ooh-ooh-ooh (woo)
Ooh-ooh-ooh, you gotta go tell me now
Ooh-ooh-ooh-hoo-ooh-ooh
She said, "Boy, tell me honestly
Was it real or just for show?" Yeah
She said, "Save your apologies
Baby, I just gotta know"
How long has this been goin' on? (On)
You've been creepin' 'round on me
While you're callin' me, "baby"
How long has this been goin' on?
You've been actin' so shady (shady)
I've been feelin' it lately
Ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah (how long has this been goin' on?)
Ooh-ooh-hoo, encore (you've been creepin' 'round on me)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-hoo-ooh-ooh
How long has it been goin' on baby
Ooh-ooh-ooh (how long has this been goin' on)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, encore (you gotta go tell me now)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-hoo-ooh-ooh (you've been actin' so shady)
(I've been feelin' it lately)
Baby
