There's a whole lotta talk
The people say you try to quit the kid
Hey yeah
Tell me what you did
You can call it what you want
But I call it messin' with the kid
Now the kid plays hot
And hot don't pay
I say what I mean, I mean what I say
Yeah, yeah

You can call it what you want
But I call it messin' with the kid
Well tell me you love me
You tell me a lie
But I know I love ya baby, 'til the day I die
