[Intro]
Woo, yeah, woo
Let me tell you a little something
My mind's not been too good recently
Hey, come on, get it
Help me

[Verse 1]
How was you gon' do love this way?
I work so hard for you every day
While you're out, late night
Doing what you do
Chilling with who?
While I'm sitting at home
Come on, get it
(I don't know what this world is coming to)

[Chorus]
I just can't rely on you (Just can't rely on you)
I just can't rely on you (Just can't rely on you)
Yeah, you got that good stuff but that don't last
But I just can't rely on you (Just can't rely on you)

[Verse 2]
Oh, Lord
How am I to ever explain
How my melted heart went right down the drain
'Cause if you don't want me (Really)
Beep beep (Beep beep)
Want some (Want somе)
Take me (Huh)
I will take mе right out your way
Come on, get it, woo
(I don't know what this world is coming to)

[Chorus]
I just can't rely on you (Just can't rely on you)
I just can't rely on you (Just can't rely on you)
