Child, have you heard the latest
Ooh, ooh, what's going on now
About Sylvester breaking up
Uhn uhn, he done broke up with a
Girl, It's a mess
Tell me about this one
Honey he can tell you better than I can
Sylvester, you gotta tell me please about this honey

Girl, I'm in the dark just like you
I really don't know what happened
I got this letter and I run to the telephone
Picked it up and dialed the number
And it was disconnected with no referral

(Chorus)
Was it something that I said
Was it something that you heard
Why are you treating me so bad
I was the best man that you had

Child, I was so through
I went tracking down the number
Called infomation couldn't get none
And like I said, I don't know what´ going on
Cause like I said, I thought I had my thing together

(Chorus)

Now I think I deserve at least a two week notice
After all the things we did
And all the good times we had
I mean, I can't just throw them away like that with no explanation
And you won't tell me what happened
And I'm going to ask you one more time

(Chorus)

Now just think about what I just said
While the music just moves and grooves
Cause I love you
And I need you baby, yes I do
I love you oooh
And I need you, ooh ooh baby
Why did you do it baby
I love you and I still need you
Ooh, my sweet thing come on home
Oh I love you, I need you, I need you, I need you
