i don't mean it lyrics

{Baby
I know we had an argument an' all
An' I must have said some pretty foul shit
I just want you to know that I ain't mean none of that, none of it}

Now I was supposed to be a man about
Shoulda never left your side, no way, no how
Put too many years in this relationship
An' it's not that serious for us to split
Now I admit, sometimes I make mistakes
But still I appreciate the love we make
Stop at the door an' put your bags back down
Now baby, please, can't we work this out?

Now I might say you can walk
An' I might name call
I may pull some silly stunts
But that's just a front
I don't mean it
Now I may holler at you
An' I may tell you we're through
May give you looks that can kill
But it's not for real
I don't mean it

Now I was supposed to be more understanding
Instead of tryin' to be so damn demandin'
Baby I'm willing to drop my ego
An' do the things I should have done an' more
See you know that I can be a better man
Girl all you gotta do is take my hand
Promise, this time I'm goin' all the way
An' show you all the reasons why you stayed

Now I might say you can walk
And I might name call
I may pull some silly stunts
But that's just a front
I don't mean it
Now I may holler at you
An' I may tell you we're through
May give you looks that could kill
But it's not for real
I don't mean it

See I never meant
To break you down
And make you cry
Oh please, baby please
Turn back around
Don't just say goodbye
Sometimes I know that I can take it
Just a little bit too far
But yo, my heart is good
So baby, you don't have to worry
You're gonna see a change
Girl you know I love you
Even though I may say

Now I might say you can walk
And I might name call
I may pull some silly stunts
But that's just a front
I don't mean it
Now I may holler at you
An' I may tell you we're through
May give you looks that can kill
But it's not for real
I don't mean it
