Lyrics

Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah
Yeah
Listen
You see, I was talkin' to one of my friends the other day
And he was going through a troubling situation
So he called me up, just to see, if I could come over to his house and talk to him
Then he said, "D-Ray, I wanted to see if you could help me out
With this little problem that I'm having right now"
Hm, being the friend that I am, I sit down to listen to him
And this is what he told me, this is what he said
"Hm, now just a few days ago, I met a beautiful young lady
Coming out the grocery store
And she was all, oh, so fine, yeah
She looked so good, she blew my mind, oh, ah
I'm so anxious (anxious, anxious, baby), yes, I am, yeah
To be with the woman that I love"
This is what he told me (anxious, anxious, baby)
Yes, indeed, yeah, so anxious
Yes, I am, yeah"
Listen, this is what I said
I said, "Is she married?" He said, "Yes," mm
"Does she have any children?" Uh, and he said, "Yes"
I said, "Does she have a husband?" Ah
With tears streaming down his face, he told me, "Yes"
I can still see the hurt come over him, yeah, when he said this, ah, listen
"I can't be with her, the way that I want to be, no
I can't even be with her and help her decorate the Christmas tree" (oh)
He said, "I'm so anxious (anxious, anxious, baby), yes, I am, yeah
To be with the woman that I love
Even on New Year's Eve (anxious, anxious, baby)
She went with him and not with me
Even on St. Valentine's Day (anxious, anxious, baby)
I often wonder if she'd still be mine, yeah, ooh
So anxious, so anxious
So anxious, so anxious, yeah
Even on Mother's Day (anxious, anxious, baby)
My love for her is never, never, never far away (oh no, no, no, no)
He said, "I'm so anxious (anxious, anxious, baby)
To be (I got to be with the woman that I love)
To be with the woman that I love, yeah" (anxious, anxious, baby)
I just want to be (I just got to be) with the woman that I love, I love her
This is what he told me (anxious, anxious, baby), I still love her
Even when he goes out, and I get to be with her (anxious, anxious, baby)
She's my woman, I just wanna be, yeah
