I'll Call You Back Later

Now I was in the bedroom
And you was sitting in the den
Then I heard a phone ringing
I thought it was just a friend

Well, you picked up your phone now, baby
And I picked up mine
We must have picked up the telephone, baby
At the very same time

Before I could say: Hello
I heard a woman's voice
She was talking to you baby
Telling you that you're the man of her choice

And you said
I'll call you back later
I'll call you back later, baby
I I I’ll call you back later
I I I can't talk to you now

Hey, hey, baby
You know that I started, right then and there
To hang up my phone
But then yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I changed my mind

'Cause if she, that little girl of yours
Was bold enough to call
Don't you know that I, oh wow
I was gonna let her stay on the line
And I don’t blame her
No, I blame you

'Cause you just think
That you can do what you wanna do
That she might your woman
On the outside
But you better show me some respect
I got my pride

And when you said I'll call you back later
I'll call you back later, baby
I’ll call you back later
I I I can't talk to you now

Hey, hey, baby

You know I don't like it
And I would be less than a woman
If I didn't let you know
That you gotta be a man
Now go on and be a mouse
And I don’t want your women
Calling at my house

You better get your women, baby
Under self control
Don't you know those girls of yours
Are just a little too old?

Baby can't you dig it?
I'm just telling you like it is
