Songtext I don't mean it R. Kelly

I don't mean it

Baby, oh baby
I know we had an argument and all
Ooh babe
And I must have said some pretty foul shit but
Mmm, mmm
I just want you to know that I aint mean none of that
Baby, baby
None of it

Now I was supposed to be a man about it
Shoulda never left your side
No way, no how
Put too many years in this relationship
And its not that serious for us to split
Now I admit sometimes I make mistakes
But still I appreciate the love we make
Stop at the door and put your bags back down
Now baby please can we work this out

Now I might say you can walk
(but I dont mean it)
And I might name call
(I dont mean it)
I may pull some silly stunts
(uhm mmm)
But thats just a front, I dont mean it
(now wait a minute hear me out)
Now I may holler at you
(I dont mean it)
And I may tell you were through
(but I dont mean it, no, no)
May give you looks that can kill
(can kill)
But its not for real
(not for real)
I dont mean it
(I dont mean it hey)

Now I was supposed to be more understanding
Instead of tryin to be so damn demandin
Baby Im willing to drop my ego
And do the things I should have done and more
See I know that I can be a better man
Girl all you gotta do is take my hand
Promise me this time
Im goin all the way
And show you all the reasons why you stayed

Now I might say you can walk
(but I dont mean it, no, no)
And I might name call
(girl I dont mean it)
I may pull some silly stunts
(ooh yeah)
But thats just a front, I dont mean it
(listen baby)
Now I may holler at you
(but I dont mean it)
And I may tell you were through
(girl you should know, I dont mean it)
May give you looks that can kill
(um mmm)
But its not for real
I dont mean it
(come here girl)

See I never meant
To break you down
And make you cry, make you cry
Oh please baby please
Turn back around
Dont you say goodbye, say goodbye
Sometimes I know that
I can take it
Just a little bit too far
But yo my heart is good
Heart is good
So baby you dont have to worry
Youre gonna see a change
Girl you know I love ya
Even though I may say

Now I might say you can walk
(I dont mean it)
And I might name call
(but I dont mean it)
I may pull some silly stunts
(hey)
But thats just a front
(hey, hey)
I dont mean it
(I dont mean it, I dont mean it)
Now I may holler at you
(when Im hollerin at you)
And I may tell you were through
(I never mean it when I say were through)
May give you looks that can kill
(kill)
But its not for real
(real)
I dont mean it
(I dont mean it)

Now I might say you can walk
(I dont mean it)
And I might name call
(but I dont mean it)
I may pull some silly stunts
(hey)
But thats just a front
(hey, hey)
I dont mean it
(I dont mean it, I dont mean it)
Now I may holler at you
(when Im hollerin at you)
And I may tell you were through
(I never mean it when I say were through)
May give you looks that can kill

But its not for real
(real)
I dont mean it
(I dont mean it)

Now I might say you can walk
(I may say that you can walk but I dont)
And I might name call
(girl I promise I dont mean it)
I may pull some silly stunts
(silly stunts)
But thats just a front
(just a front)
I dont mean it
(thinkin Im cool but Im a fool)
Now I may holler at you
(when Im hollerin at you)
And I may tell you were through
(I never mean it when I say were through)
May give you looks that can kill
(kill)
But its not for real
