[Intro]

Doo-doo-doo

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo


[Verse 1]

Every day, I hear a different story

People sayin' that you're no good for me

"Saw your lover with another

And she's makin' a fool of you," oh

If you love me, baby, you'd deny it

But you laugh and tell me I should try it

Tell me I'm a baby and I don't understand


[Pre-Chorus]

But you know that I'll forgive you

Just this once, twice, forever

'Cause, baby, you could drag me to hell and back

Just as long as we're together, and you do


[Chorus]

I don't want your freedom

I don't want to play around

I don't want nobody, baby

Part-time love just brings me down

I don't need your freedom

Girl, all I want right now is you


[Post-Chorus]

Doo-doo-doo

Woah-oh, yeah

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo


[Verse 2]

Like a prisoner who has his own key

But I can't escape until you love me

I just go from day to day

Knowing all about the other boys

You take my hand and tell me I'm a fool

To give you all that I do

I bet you someday, baby

Someone says the same to you


[Pre-Chorus]

But you know that I'll forgive you

Just this once, twice, forever

'Cause, baby, you could drag me to hell and back

Just as long as we're together, and you do, oh


[Chorus]

I don't want your freedom

I don't want to play around

I don't want nobody, baby

Part-time love just brings me down

I don't want your freedom

Girl, all I want right now is you


[Post-Chorus]

Doo-doo-doo (Can't you see you're hurting me?)

Woah-oh, yeah (Ah-ah)

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo


[Bridge]

You're hurting me, baby, hurting me, baby

Oh-oh

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo

You're hurting me, baby, hurting me, baby


[Pre-Chorus]

But you know that I'll forgive you

Just this once, twice, forever

'Cause, baby, you could drag me to hell and back

Just as long as we're together, and you do, oh


[Chorus]

I don't want your freedom

I don't need to play around

I don't want nobody, baby

Part-time love just brings me down

I don't want your freedom

I don't want to play around

I don't want nobody, baby

Part-time love just brings me down


[Outro]

I don't want your (I don't want your)

I don't want your (I don't want your)

I don't want your (I don't want your)

I don't want your (I don't want your)

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
