You can't fool me girl I know you well
What's on your mind it ain't hard to tell
Don't leave me now, don't play wit' me
You think I'm blind but baby I can see
I saw your eyes, from across the room
You was checkin' me out, and I was scopin' you too
Don't say I'm wrong, don't mind those eyes
(What)
I'ma call your bluff, so baby tell me why?
Tell me standing here
(Tell me baby am I gettin' on your nerves)
Baby keep it real
(Why don't you tell me how you feel?)
Tell me what's on your mind?
(Tell me am I wasting my time?)
I gotta know, baby let me know
Tell me standing here
(Tell me baby am I gettin' on your nerves)
Baby keep it real
(Why don't you tell me how you feel?)
Tell me what's on your mind?
(Tell me am I wasting my time?)
I gotta know, baby let me know
Could you have told me girl is what I said
You can tell the truth I'm all in your hand
And what's wrong wit' that are you ashamed of me?
You can fool your girls but you can't fool G
I saw your eyes, from across the room
You was checkin' me out, I was scopin' you too
Oh I'll turn and walk away if you deny
(I)
But before I go, could you tell me why?
Tell me standing here
(Tell me baby am I gettin' on your nerves)
Baby keep it real
(Why don't you tell me how you feel?)
Tell me what's on your mind?
(Tell me am I wasting my time?)
I gotta know, baby let me know
Tell me standing here
(Tell me baby am I gettin' on your nerves)
Baby keep it real
(Why don't you tell me how you feel?)
Tell me what's on your mind?
(Tell me am I wasting my time?)
I gotta know, baby let me know
Baby baby, baby baby
What's yo name? What's yo name?
How 'bout you? How 'bout you?
Come play our game, come play our game
It's me and Ginuwine, it's me and Ginuwine
A new day and time, a new day and time
C'mon baby, c'mon baby
Wha wah wha, wha wah wha
Tell me standing here
(Tell me baby am I gettin' on your nerves)
Baby keep it real
(Why don't you tell me how you feel?)
Tell me what's on your mind?
(Tell me am I wasting my time?)
I gotta know, baby let me know
Tell me standing here

Baby keep it real
(Why don't you tell me how you feel?)
Tell me what's on your mind?
