Oh is it true
Is it true
Or have I been mistaken
Oh it's you
It's you
Who started this trouble makin'
Sure I'm a fool
I'm a fool
For putting my heart in such a situation
I tried to keep my cool
Keep my cool
Baby I've grown impatient
Well you've got my attention
Now bust out your intentions

Baby don't put me on your backburner
Baby don't put me on your backburner
Baby don't put me on your backburner
Baby don't put me on your backburner

Well when I start thinking bout you and me
It gets my pulse racein (racein, racein)
You don't seem to care much about me
When I'm looking in your direction (your direction)
Oh girl you can take it or leave it
Baby are you too blind to see that
Your leavin me high and dry (high and dry)
And when you take my love girl (while you wait for another)
Your gonna cross the line (cross the line, cross the line)
Well you've got my attention
Now bust out your intentions

Baby don't put me on your backburner
Baby don't put me on your backburner
Baby don't put me on your backburner
Baby don't put me on your backburner

I've been waiting a long long time for a girl like you
But I ain't wastin any one of my days
Cause I've got better things to do
Your giving me grief
But I aint no thief
You seem to be the one who misunderstood
Cause you keep turning your back
Turning your back
When things were just getting good

Baby don't put me on your backburner
Baby don't put me on your backburner
Baby don't put me on your backburner
Baby don't put me on your backburner
