Oh no, not me

Never thought I'd be caught up

(Never, never, never thought I would)

Oh no, not me

Never thought I'd be caught up

(Never, never, never, never thought that I)

Oh no, not me

(It's a shame that she)

Never thought I'd be caught up

(Oh, yes it is, yes it is, yes it is, oh)

Oh no, not me

Never thought I'd be caught up



Always considered myself a playa

(Got a lot to talk about)

Never thought I'd get caught up in this mess

See I had a good life

My own home, my own car, my own dough

Had no stress

(Let me tell you the story)

And then I let my guard down for a minute

Cuz she was pretty

Thought she was the one for me

(Do you hear me?)

Knew it was wrong, shouldn't have did it

But she let me hit it

And I was too damn blind to see

Just what she was doin' to me



Oh no, not me

Never thought I'd be caught up

(I wonder if anybody out there can understand, oh)

Oh no, not me

Never thought I'd be caught up

(I wonder if anybody out there has ever been caught up)

Oh no, not me

Never thought I'd be caught up

(Not me, baby, not me)

Oh no, not me

Never thought I'd be caught up



Now she's on the phone

Callin' all her family and friends

Tellin' them she's wifey

And I told her ass from the beginning

I'm not ready to be settled

That's not the way it's goin' down with me

But oh, she had her game so tight

The way she threw it on me everynight

Nothin' seemed to matter

I didn't care

But she had it planned in the back of her head

That she only knew

And she played it out, until the bitter end

Oh no, no, no, no



Oh no, not me

Never thought I'd be caught up

(I wonder how many out there understand)

Oh no, not me

Never thought I'd be caught up

(I wonder how many of you have ever been caught up)

Oh no, not me

Never thought I'd be caught up

(See, I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy)

Oh no, not me

Never thought I'd be caught up

(No, no, no)



One day she knocked on my door

With a letter in her hand

And she gave it to me

And said "I know you'll understand"

And as I read the letter

Tears began to stream from my eyes

She said she lost her baby

And the baby was mine, oh mine



Why, why, why did this happen to me?

(Tell me why)

Why, why, why did this happen to me?

(I wanna know why)

Why, why, why did this happen to me?

(Did this happen to me)

This is not the way it's supposed to be

(It wasn't supposed to be this way)

Tell me why, why, why did this happen to me?

(Did this happen to me)

Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why



Oh no, not me

Never thought I'd be caught up

(I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy, yeah)

Oh no, not me

Never thought I'd be caught up

(Oh, no, no)

(She said she lost her baby)

Oh no, not me

Never thought I'd be caught up

(And the baby was mine)

Oh no, not me

(What am I supposed to do?)

(What am I supposed to do?)

Never thought I'd be caught up

(What am I supposed to do?)

(What am I supposed to do?)



(It was supposed to be a temporary thing)

Oh no, not me

Never thought I'd be caught up

(Yeah, yeah, yes it was)

Oh no, not me

(I'm so caught up)

Never thought I'd be caught up

(I'm so caught up
