Ring-a-ling-a-ling is the sound been hearin’ all night
Tryin’ to call my baby up, the connection ain’t workin’ out right
I got a world of suspicion rollin’ round in my brain
He better come home soon, ‘cause my heart can’t stand the pain
When I look at the clock and I see the time
Hear a voice ringing out in the back of my mind
It’s 2 a.m., do you know where your baby is? (2x)

Jumped in my car, put my foot on the floor
I better find that boy soon, I can’t take this wrong direction no more
My mind’s imagination, seein’ spots on the wall
He’s got my fever meter runnin’, makes the Indy 500 crawl
And I go to the corner where the gang hangs out
And my friends my me hearing somebody shout
It’s 2 a.m., do you know where your baby is? (2x)

Well he might be with the boys, but I doubt it
Think somebody’s with him while I’m sitting home without him, ohh-hh!

Drivin’ down the block I hear the clock tick-tock
Oh please, where can he go, somebody tell me ‘cause I don’t know
Well he might be with his mother
Well he might be with his brother, y’all
We he might be with his sis, I can’t take it like this
When I look at the clock and I see the time
Hear a voice ringing out in the back of my mind
It’s 2 a.m., do you know where your baby is? (2x)
It’s 2 a.m., It’s 2 a.m.
