Scott Bradlee's Postmodern Jukebox, Joey Cook - Say My Name Lyrics

Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you
Say, "Baby, I love you"
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You're actin' kinda shady
Ain't callin' me baby
Why the sudden change?

Any other day
I would call and you would say
"Baby, how's your day?"
But today, it ain't the same
Every other word
Is "uh-huh", "yeah, okay"
Could it be that you
Are at the crib with another lady?
If you took her there
First of all, let me say
That I am not the one
To sit around, and be played
Prove yourself to me
I'm the girl that you claim
Why don't you say the things
That you said to me yesterday?

I know that you say I'm assuming things
Something's going down that's the way it seems
Should be no reason you're acting strange
If nobody's holding you back from me

Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you
Say, "Baby, I love you"
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You're actin' kinda shady
Ain't callin' me baby
Why the sudden change?

What is up with this?
Tell the truth, who you with?
How would you like it if
I came over with my clique?
Don't try to change it now
Say that you've gotta bounce
When two seconds ago
Said you just got in the house
It's hard to believe that you
Are at home, by yourself
When I just heard the voice
Heard the voice of someone else
Just this question why
Do you feel you gotta lie?
Caught up in your game
When you can not say my name

I know that you say I'm assuming things
Something's going down that's the way it seems
Should be no reason you're acting strange
If nobody's holding you back from me

Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you
Say, "Baby, I love you"
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You're actin' kinda shady
Ain't callin' me baby
Why the sudden change?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (yeah, ah-ooh)

I know that you say I'm assuming things
Something's going down that's the way it seems (ah-ooh)
Should be no reason you're acting strange
If nobody's holding you back from me
'Cause I know how you usually do
When you sayin' everything to me times two
Why can't you just tell the truth?
If somebody's there then tell me who

Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you
Say, "Baby, I love you"
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You're actin' kinda shady
You ain't callin' me baby
Why the sudden change?

Say, "Baby, I love you"
Better say my name
