[Verse 1]
I wanna take this moment out
To speak for all the ladies
Who never had the opportunity to say what I'm about to say
You see, my man
He's always busy doing this, that, with the fellas
I don't know what he's doing
But whatever it is, it ain't with me
So why don't you get yourself a piece of paper and a pencil
And take some notes, while I talk to you about time
You see, 'cause I'm lonely now
I ain't gon' wait 'til tomorrow
In fact, I might not be here tonight
[Chorus]
If you ain't got time to spend time
To make time for my love
If you ain't got time to spend time
To make time for my love
If you ain't got time to spend time
To make time for my love
If you ain't got time to spend time
To make time for my love
Then I don't need your love
Oh no
The way you think I do
Now I want all you fellas to listen to this
[Verse 2]
Now you know it's wrong
For me to wait
And you to show up three hours late
How long did you think that this could go on?
When I needed your love, you were never at home
Because I know deep down inside
My love for you could only feed my pride, but
I got something I wanna say to you (Ooh)
I got something I wanna say to you (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
[Chorus]
If you ain't got time to spend time
To make time for my love
If you ain't got time to spend time
To make time for my love
Then I don't need your love
Oh no
The way you think I do
[Verse 3]
Now ladies
You know a man's ego can't accept the fact
That somebody else is having what he's got
And you know all those nights
That we've been lonely?
You know they've been lonely too
They sit at home trying to get over someone else having you
And if you ever gonna make a decision
For once in your life, decide you're right, ladies
[Chorus]
If you ain't got time to spend time
To make time for my love
If you ain't got time to spend time
To make time for my love
Then I don't need your love
No, I don't need your love
The way you think I do
Come on ladies, help me sing!
[Chorus]
If you ain't got time to spend time
To make time for my love
If you ain't got time to spend time
To make time for my love
To make time for my love
Then I don't need your love
Oh no
The way you think I do
[Interlude]
*phone rings*
- Hello?
- Hello baby
I just wanted to let you know I was gonna be a little late
I got to go down to my grandmothers...
*phone hangs*
Those same old lies
And I'm just tired of it
If you ain't got time, to spend time
To make time, for my love
I got something I wanna say to you
Ooh
I got something I wanna say to you
Ooh, ooh, ooh
[Guitar solo]
[Chorus]
If you ain't got time to spend time
To make time for my love
If you ain't got time to spend time
To make time for my love
[Verse 5]
You walk around tellin' lies
Call yourself a man of mine
I might just send your stuff out my door
I don't need you here no more
I don't need you
I don't want you
If you ain't got time to spend time
To make time for my love
If you ain't got time to spend time
To make time for my love
I don't need you
