Vrs 1:
I can't, get to work on time,
Can't believe the words to her I just said
But who the hell argue n fight like dogs at 6 in the morning?
(in the mornin)
I know its gonna' be some more sh** tonight
Mm oooh
Our pastor's callin, tellin me I done went too far in
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)

Chorus:
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
I done took all I can take
But u 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
I done took all I can take
But u leave me no options girl

Ooh! ooooooh! ooh! papers
Ooh! ooooooh! ooh! papers

Vrs 2:
I'm losin my mind, cant 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 poppin' and everything is sweet
But I 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.
(oooh for u)

For you I gave my heart
And turned my back against the world
(back against the world)
'cause you were my girl, girl (girl), girl,
I done damn near lost my mama (mama),
I done been through so much drama (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 (paii), papers (paai ooh oh oh oh)

But u leave me no options girl
I can't deny how much I love you (know that I love u),

As hard as it is I'm afraid I gotta say
(I'm affraid I gotta say)
I'm ready to sign them papers (papers), papers (paii),
