Was It Something That I Said - Sylvester

Child, have you heard the latest?

Uh-oh, what’s goin' on now?

About Sylvester breakin' up?

Uh-uh.

He done broke up with umm???

Girl, it’s a mess!

Uh-oh, you gotta tell me 'bout this one!

Honey, he’ll tell you better than I can!

Sylvester, tell me 'bout this please, honey

Girl, I’m in the dark just like you

I really don’t know what happened…

I got this letter

And I ran to the telephone

Picked it up and dialed the number

And disconnected with no referral

(sung):

Was it something that I said (was it somethin' that i said)

Was it something that you heard (was it somethin' that you heard)

Why you treatin' me so bad (why you treat me so bad)

I was the best man that you had

Mm, mm, mm

(spoken):

Child, I was so through

I went trackin' down the number

Called the information couldn’t get nothin'

And like I said girl, I don’t know what’s goin' on

'Cause like I said I thought I had my thing together

(sung):

Was it something that I said (was it somethin' that i said)

Was it something that you heard (was it somethin' that you heard)

Why are you treatin' me so bad (why are you treatin' me so bad)

I was the best man that you had

Mm, mm, mm

(spoken):

Now, I think I deserve at least a two-weeks notice

After all the things we did

And all the good times we had

I mean, I just can’t throw them away like that with no explanation

And if you won’t give me no answer

I’ll ask you this one more time

(sung):

Was it something that I said (was it somethin' that I said)

Was it something that you heard (was it somethin' that you heard)

Why you treatin' me so bad (why are you treatin' me so bad)

I was the best thing that you had

Mm, mm, mm

(spoken):

Now, I want you to think about what I just said…

While the music just moves and grooves

(sung):

'Cause I love ya

And I need

Need you baby

Yes, I do

I love you, ooh

And I need you

Ooh, ooh baby

Why’d you do it to me (baby)

Why’d you do it to me (baby)

Ooh, wee baby

Oh, I love you

And I still need you (baby)

Mmm (baby)

(my sweet baby)

(baby)

My sweet (baby)

Come on home, baby

Oh, I love ya

I need ya

Need ya

Need ya

Need ya

(ooh, ooh, baby, baby)
