Say baby, what U waitin' on? 
4 U, uh, ain't no other fish in the sea 
What U waitin' on? 
Acknowledge me 

Acknowledge me, don't dog me anymore 
I was here in the beginning and I'll be here 4ever more 
Acknowledge me, I only wanna be your friend 
I can make U happy baby, over and over again 

Saw U at the party, U were lookin' so fly 
Everybody wanted your number, U wanted mine 
U came right up 2 me in one wink of an eye 
U told me that U think of me both day and night and that is why 

I've got 2 know how can U give your body 2 another 
When your mind is here with me? 
U need a friend much more than a lover 
That's all I ever said I wanted 2 be 

CHORUS: 
Acknowledge me, don't dog me anymore (No baby) 
I was here in the beginning and I'll be here 4ever more 
Acknowledge me, I only wanna be your friend (Oh baby) 
I can make U happy baby, over and over again 

I'm waitin' 4 the phone call, but it just don't ring 
I'm lookin' 4 a letter or a sign from heaven or anything 
Everyday that goes by is another day I want U more 
I'd give a million dollars 2 see U baby standin' at my door 

I'll lay U down and tell U stories 
About the way that we could be 
And when U're ready 2 feel the glory (Feel the glory) 
I will only want 2 love U when it's somethin' that U need 

CHORUS 

Not that U care 4 a silly rhyme frontin' an old clichЁ¦ (Yeah) (Yeah) 
But look at me baby, what can I say? 
There ain't another fish in the sea (Yeah) 
I could be singin' a song any style, any way 
Ain't nothin' but a trick 2 me (Blow) 
But I'm gonna blow this horn until U're on your knees 
Beggin' me please, please, please 
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme love I can count on 
Gimme, gimme body I can't go without 
Uh, slaves 4 one another (Hey!) 
Yeah baby, that's what I do believe I am talkin' about 
So let me know how U wanna go? (Yeah) 
U wanna get with that or this? (Yeah) 
Uh, acknowledge me, baby 
U got 2 or U can.. kiss.. 

How can U give your body 2 another? (How can U, baby?) 
When your mind is here with me (It's here with me) 
U need a friend much more than a lover (U need a friend) 
That's all I ever said I wanted 2 be 
(That's all I ever, ever wanna be baby) 
(Acknowledge me, me, me, oh yeah!) 
Acknowledge, acknowledge, acknowledge, acknowledge me 

Acknowledge me, don't dog me anymore (No baby) 
I was here in the beginning and I'll be here 4ever more 
Acknowledge me, I only wanna be your friend 
I can make U happy baby, over and over again (And over again,
yeah) 

Acknowledge me, don't dog me anymore (Don't cha dog me girl) 
(I'll be here, I'll be here 2 wipe away your tears) 
Acknowledge me, I only wanna be your friend 
(Oh, don't cha worry about a thing) 
I can make U happy baby, over and over again (Oh, yeah) 

Come on pretty baby, sit your butt on the chair there 
And let me run a gender in and out of your hair fair 
A gender 4 the morning, noon and night, so prepare there 
U could come alone or tell a friend, I don't care bear 
This a funky party so U need 2 be open 
Givin' up all I need so I don't need 2 be hopin' 
And even if we're dealin' with that time of the month
