Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't wanna believe the bad things about you
Oh no now
'Cause if they're true, I'll have to get along without you
Oh now
[Verse 2]
I said the word is out on you, oh yeah
It's all about the things you do, mhmm
Movin' and-a groovin', usin' and-a foolin'
Chasin' around every skirt in town
If it's true, you'll be on your way
Do I Make Myself Clear? Do I Make Myself Clear?
[Verse 3]
I said you gonna have to stop and check yourself
Oh yeah, now
I'm not gonna have a man that's got somebody else
No no, oh you tell 'em now girl, now now
[Verse 4]
Oh, if you're runnin' around, baby
And thinkin' of puttin' me down, you're wrong
Takin' away what belongs to me
Givin' to her when I'm in need
If it's true, you'll be on your way
Do I Make Myself Clear? Do I Make Myself Clear?
[Verse 5]
I said do, do I, Do I Make Myself Clear?
Oh, do you understand me now?
Do, do I, Do I Make Myself Clear?
Oh yeah, you better listen to her now
Oh yeah
And whoa yeah now
Whoa, oh baby
[Verse 6]
So why won't you try to do something to change?
Yeah, yeah
And make me know it's not the way they came
Oh yeah, now lemme tell ya something
[Verse 7]
All I want you to do is be true, honey na, na, na
Love you like you say you do
Oh yeah, and I won't care what they say
Said I'd turn my pin and walk away
But if it's true, you know what to do
Do I Make Myself Clear? Do I Make Myself Clear?
[Verse 8]
I said do, do I, Do I Make Myself Clear?
And whoa yeah now
Whoa, whoa, and whoa
I said do-do-do-do-do, Do I Make Myself Clear?
