Don't Work That Way
Ne-Yo

[Verse:]

She was a diamond princess cut perfect no cloud

S*** and independent, making man proud

Oh but a man didn't no her work treating her wrong foul

Since he didn't know how to treat her

She went an found a fellow that knew how (hoowww)


And he treats her like a queen, with a diamond crown (Yeah)

She's all happy now (Oh)

But looks who's back around (Yeah, Yeah)

Her old boyfriend and now he's talking bout (what he talking bout)

How he got it figured out

He says leave him and let's work it out

But she said


Chorus

No No No

No No It Don't work that way

No No It Don't work that way at all


No No No

No No It Don't work that way

No No It Don't work that way at all


[Verse 2:]

And so the old boyfriend stands there looking so confused

I guess he really thought she would pick him over her new dude

So he goes what can he give that I can't give you

She says great s** ain't one credit and occasional bag and a pair of shoes


She says he treats me like a queen, with a diamond crown (No)

I'm so happy now (happy now)

Then you come back around (then you come back around)

Say you didn't know then, but you swear that you know now

(But you swear that you know now)

Flashing that fake smile (Hey, hey)

Talking bout let's work it out (Woo, woo)

She said


Chorus

No No No

No No It Don't work that way

No No It Don't wotk that way at all

No No No

No No It Don't work that way

No No It Don't wotk that way at all


La La La

La La La La La La La

La La La La La La La La La

La La La

La La La La La La La

La La La La La La La La La


Chorus

No No No

No No It Don't work that way

No No It Don't wotk that way at all

No No No

No No It Don't work that way

No No It Don't wotk that way at all
