Toni Braxton - Just Be Man About It lyrics

rate me

Written by Toni Braxton, John'ta Austin, Teddy Bishop

Hey, hey hold up a minute

Let me stop up here and use this pay

Phone real quick

Hey, hey Toni, it's me, I was just calling

You know

Just calling to let you know, don't

Wait up for me tonight

I mean I just got a lotta things on my

Mind I gotta think about, you know

Just umm, I'll be over Brian's house,

You know, just for tonight

I mean, I know things are different, but

You know

It's not you, it's me, you know, it's

really me, you know

I mean basically, I just think I'm gonna

need some space

Why are you calling me on the phone

Why you not at home on time

You say you're staying over your

Friends

'Cuz you got a lot on your mind

Now you're swearing up and down that

It ain't me

Still you say that things have changed

So tell me what exactly does it mean

When you say you need your space

Just don't make no excuses, no no

Why you gotta lie to me

Just be a man about it

Baby, you don't gotta lie to me, no

Just be a man about it

If you wanna leave go on

Just be a man about it

Come and grab your things and go on

Right now

Just be a man about it

I Mean, you gotta understand I love

You, you know what I'm saying

And I love you enough to say that I

Think,

I Think you deserve somebody better

Than me, you know

And right now, I can't give you what

You need, you know

I mean, I wanna love you, and I'm gonna

Love you, one day but, you know

I mean, you just gotta understand

Where I'm coming from

You say right now that you're not

What I'm looking for

And what you really need is time to

Grow

You're promising that one day you may

Come around

And I'm supposed to let that go

But where the hell do you get off

Telling me your mama said

I'm not what you need

Tell you what, since she knows it all

Then that's where you need to be

Just don't make no excuses, no no

Why you gotta lie to me

Just be a man about it

Baby, you don't gotta lie to me, no

Just be a man about it

If you wanna leave go on

Just be a man about it

Come and grab your things and go on

Right now

Just be a man about it

Can you tell me how you can

Say you're in love and then

Treat me so bad

Boy, you know it just ain't right

I cannot believe the way you handled

Things

You wouldn't lie if you were a man.

Just don't make no excuses, no no

Why you gotta lie to me

Just be a man about it

Baby, you don't gotta lie to me, no

Just be a man about it

If you wanna leave go on

Just be a man about it

Come and grab your things and go on

Right now
