[Instrumental Intro]
[Intro: Mark Morrison]
Ooh-oh-oh-oh
Come on
Uh yeah
[Verse 1]
Well, I tried to tell you so (Yes, I did)
But I guess you didn't know
As the saddest story goes
Baby, now I got the flow
'Cause I knew it from the start
Baby, when you broke my heart
That I had to come again
And show you that I'd win
[Pre-Chorus]
You lied to me
All those times I said that I loved you
You lied to me
Yes, I tried, yes I tried
You lied to me
Even though you knew I'd die for you
You lied to me
Yes, I cried, yes I cried
[Chorus]
Return of the Mack (It is)
Return of the Mack (Come on)
Return of the Mack (Oh my God)
You know that I'll be back (Here I am)
Return of the Mack (Once again)
Return of the Mack (Top of the world)
Return of the Mack (Watch my flow)
You know that I'll be back (Here I go)
[Verse 2]
So, I'm back up in the game (Hustling slow)
Running things to keep my swing (All night long)
Letting all the people know
That I'm back to run the show
'Cause what you did you know was wrong
And all the nasty things you've done (Oh, oh, oh)
So baby, listen carefully
While I sing my comeback song
[Pre-Chorus]
You lied to me
'Cause she said she'd never turn on me
You lied to me
But you did, but you did
You lied to me
All this pain you said I'd never feel
You lied to me
But I do, but I do, do, do
[Chorus]
Return of the Mack (It is)
Return of the Mack (Hold on)
Return of the Mack (Don't cha know)
You know that I'll be back (Here I go)
Return of the Mack (Oh, little girl)
Return of the Mack (Once my pearl)
Return of the Mack (Up and down)
You know that I'll be back (Round and round)
[Instrumental Breakdown]
[Interlude: Angie Brown, (Mark Morrison)]
Ahh, Mark, stop lying about your big break
For God's sake, I need a real man, uh
(The return of the mack) Stop letting me down
(Aoww) Stop letting me down
[Pre-Chorus: Mark Morrison]
You lied to me
'Cause she said she'd never turn on me
You lied to me
But you did, but you did
You lied to me
All this pain you said I'd never feel
You lied to me
But I do, but I do, do, do
[Chorus]
Return of the Mack (It is)
Return of the Mack (Come on)
Return of the Mack (Oh, my God)
You know that I'll be back (Here I am)
Return of the Mack (Once again)
Return of the Mack (Top of the world)
Return of the Mack (Watch my flow)
You know that I'll be back (Don't you know)
Return of the Mack (Here it is)
Return of the Mack (Hold on)
Return of the Mack (Be strong)
You know that I'll be back (Here I go)
Return of the Mack (My little baby)
Return of the Mack (Watch my flow)
Return of the Mack (Up and down)
You know that I'll be back (Round and round)
Return of the Mack (Isn't it?)
Return of the Mack (Isn't it?)
Return of the Mack (Isn't it?)
You know that I'll be back (Oh, oh, oh)
Return of the Mack (Isn't it?)
Return of the Mack (Isn't it?)
Return of the Mack (Isn't it?)
You know that I'll be back (Ow!)
