Oh, Is it true,... is it true?

 Or have i been mistaken?

 Oh is it you, is it you?

 Whos started this trouble makin

 Sure im a fool im a fool

 For putting my heart in such a situation.

 I tried to keep my cool, keepa my cool

 Baby ive grown impatient

 Well you got my attention,

Now, Was that your attention?

 Baby dont put me on your backburner.

 Baby dont put me on your backburner.

 Baby dont put me on your backburner.

 Baby dont put me on your backburner.

 WEll, when i start thinkin bout you and me

 Gets my pulse racin

 You dont seem to care much about me

 When im lookin in your direction

 Oh, Girl you can take it or leave it, baby are you too blind to see that

 you're leaving my high and dry

 And when ur takin my love girl, while you wait for another..

 You've gone and crossed the line

 Well you got my attention,

Now, Was that your attention?

Chorus

4-4-6/8-

 I been waiting a long long time for a girl like you

 I aint wastin any one of my days, cuz i got better things to do

 your givin me grief, but i aint no thief

 you seem to be the one who misunderstood

 Cuz you keep turning your back, turning your back,

when things were just getting good.

 Baby dont put me on your backburner.

 Baby dont put me on your backburner.

 Baby dont put me on your backburner.

 Baby dont put me on your backburner.
