"Give It Up" lyrics

Give it up, just forget it
Ain't gonna let you get me down
Give it up, just forget it
Get away! I'll see you around
From the things I understood
Baby, you don't mean no good
So give it up, just forget it
Ain't gonna let you get me down
Oh, no, no

You played my buddy
And you played my buddy for a fool
And you think that this is smart
Just breaking a lover's heart
But give it up, just forget it
Ain't gonna let you get me down
Listen to me

He told you how you do
When you go to cast your spell on him
First, you try to make up
Next, you wanna break up
You put him on a shelf, now
He's talkin' to himself, now
But give it up, just forget it
Ain't gonna let you get me down
No, no, baby, heh!

First, you come on strong, then
You tell him something's wrong, and
You say you wanna wind up
You never make your mind up
You got him on a string, girl
You're just a ding-a-ling
Give it up, just forget it
Get away! I'll see you around

And I'm gonna see you, girl (Give it up, just forget it)
Bye, bye, baby (Get away, I'll see you around)
(Give it up, just forget it)
(Get away, I'll see you around)
