It seems like just the other day that we hooked up
(I was drivin', you was 
walkin' and I swooped you up)
From that moment on I knew you were the one, 
yeah
(I was single, you was lonely and we fell in love)

We would sit 
and talk for hours about anything
(Baby, you hang up, no, you hang up, on 
three hang up)
I bought your whip, I paid your rent, I gave you 
everything
(Said you'd always be my baby then you bounce)
How you gonna 
act

How you gonna up and leave me now
How you gonna act like 
that
How you gonna change it up, we just finished makin' up
How you gonna 
act like that

How you gonna act like we don't be makin' love
You know 
we be tearin' it up, breakin' stuff, that ghetto love
How you gonna trip, how 
could you forget
How you gonna act like that

Girl, I never thought 
that lovin' you would hurt
(I did everything a good man would to make it 
work)
Girl, you should have told me you had second thoughts
(Like before I 
put the down on the house we bought)

Now I'm thinkin' you and me was a 
mistake
(But then it hits me and I'm missin' all the love we made)
Girl, I 
know that we've been goin' through some things, yeah
(But the sun is always 
shinin' even when it rains, oh)

I'll be the one you kick it to
I'll be 
the one that misses you
I'll be the one to ease your pain
I'll be the one 
you'll want to gain
And you'll be the one who can't forget
You'll be the 
one that's innocent
You'll be the one I can't hide
You'll be the one that 
makes me cry, baby

How you gonna up and leave me now (Why you do)
How 
you gonna act like that (Why you gotta act like that)
How you gonna change it 
up (Whoa, ho, baby), we just finished makin' up
How you gonna act like that 
(But I need you)

How you gonna act like we (Oh) don't be makin' 
love
(Whoa: baby, baby)
You know we be tearin' it up, breakin' stuff, that 
ghetto love
How you gonna trip, how could you forget
How you gonna act 
like that

You know I'm willin' to do anything
Just to keep you in my 
heart (Keep you in my heart)
I messed around and gave up everything
I 
thought we'd never part (Yes, I did, baby)
I was a player and made the choice 
to give my heart to you
And I gotta keep it that way, ooh, baby

How 
you gonna up and leave me now (Ooh, baby)
How you gonna act like that (Why 
you gotta treat me this way)
How you gonna change it up (Why you treat me 
wrong), we just finished makin' up
How you gonna act like that (Can me 
somebody tell me why)

How you gonna act
(Why, why) like we don't be 
makin' love (Hey)
You know we be tearin' it up, breakin' stuff (Oh, oh, 
baby), that ghetto love
How you gonna trip (All my friends became your 
friends), how can you forget
(All my ends became your ends)
How you gonna 
act like that

Keepin' love ghetto (All I want is you)
Keepin' love 
ghetto (All I need is you)
Keepin' love ghetto (All I need is you)
Keepin' 
love ghetto (All I need is you, all I need is you, babe)

How you gonna up 
and leave me now (Oh, babe, how you gonna act like that)
How you gonna act 
like that (Hey, hey)
How you gonna change it up (Oh), we just finished makin' 
up 
(Why you actin' so shady, oh, oh, baby)
How you gonna act like that 
(Anything you want in me I got ya, hey)

How you gonna act like we don't 
be makin' love
You know we be tearin' it up, breakin' stuff (Why you actin' 
so shady), that ghetto love
How you gonna trip (Oh, oh, baby), how can you 
forget
How you gonna act like that

How you gonna up and leave me 
now
How you gonna act like that
