Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey, you (Hey, you)
I don't love you no more, yeah (Hey, you)
Hey, you (Hey, you)
Don't need you for sure, hey (Hey, you)
[Verse 2]
The first time I met you (Get yourself on the right track)
I could neither say nor do (And be sure, there ain't no turning back)
You led me all along (Dee-doo, you-dee-doo)
Prove your love could do, yeah (Hold yourself on a straight line)
You gave me no chance (Adjust yourself to the right time)
To express myself to you, well, yeah
(Then you can say you are doin' fine)
[Verse 3]
My heart is on end lately
Like a ship stuck on a rift (Hey, hey, hey, hey, you)
Still, I've got to leave you (Hey, hey, hey, hey, you)
For we both need a trail (Hey, hey, hey, hey, you)
[Verse 4]
Hey, you, hey (Hey, you)
I don't love you no more, well, yeah (Hey, you)
Hey, you (Hey, you)
I don't need you for sure, yo, hey (Hey, you)
[Verse 5]
My heart is on end lately
Like a ship stuck on a rift (Hey, hey, hey, hey, you)
Still, I've got to leave you (Hey, hey, hey, hey, you)
For we both need a trail (Hey, hey, hey, hey, you)
[Verse 6]
Hey, you, hey (Hey, you)
I don't need you for sure, well, yeah (Hey, you)
Hey, you (Hey, you)
I don't love you no more, wait (Hey, you)
[Verse 7]
The first time I met you (Get yourself on the right track)
I could neither say nor do, yeah, yeah
(And be sure, there ain't no turning back)
You led me all along (Dee-doo, you-dee-doo)
Prove your love could do, well, yeah (Hold yourself on a straight line)
You gave me no chance (Adjust yourself to the right time)
To express myself to you, yeah (Then you can say you are doin' fine)
[Verse 8]
You, you, hey, you (Get yourself on the right track)
You, you, hey, you (And be sure, there ain't no turning back)
Hey, you, you, hey, you (Get yourself on the right track)
Hey, you, you, hey, you (And be sure, there ain't no turning back)
Hey, you, you, you, you (Get yourself on the right track)
You, you, you (And be sure, there ain't no turning back)
Hah, you, you, you, hey, you (Get yourself on the right track)
