Listen to me, baby I'm trying to make you see That I want to be with you, girl If you want to be with me CHORUS: But if you gotta go Well, it's all right But if you gotta go, go now Or else you gotta stay all night I am just a poor boy, baby Trying to connect But I don't want you thinkin' Oh that I ain't got any respect (chorus) Now I'm not trying to question you To take part in any quiz It's just that I don't have a watch & you keep askin' me what time it is (chorus) Now I don't want to make you give anything you never gave before It's just that I'll be sleepin' soon; it'll be too dark for you to find the door (chorus)
