Hey girl let me holla at you
For a minute it wont take long
You see we've been good friends
For a while and I hope you wont
Get mad at me and try to act fool
Cause it wasn't my fault
So before you hear it twisted from somebody else
I'll tellyou myself

That your man tried to holla at me
Your man tried to get with me
Said your man when behind your back
But he found out I don't get down like that

(check it out)
You see I wasn't gonna tell you
But as a friend I thought I should
(check it out)
Cause if the shoe was on the other foot
I would hope you would
Be a woman enough to tell me
Be woman enough to confront me
And I hate the bearer of bad news
But I had to tell you

That your man tried to holla at me
Your man tried to get with me
Said your man when behind your back
But he found out I don't get down like that

I don't know
Don't know the reason why
The reason he would try
I don't know
When he knew that it would make you cry
All I know
All I know is that I'm gonna be
A friend forever that's why
I had to tell ya

That your man tried to holla at me
Your man tried to get with me
Said your man when behind your back
But he found out I don't get down like that

That your man tried to holla at me
Your man tried to get with me
Said your man when behind your back
But he found out I don't get down like that

I said he tried to holla
He told me I should call him
But you're my girl
So I thought I had to tell you
That your man
