Text: Keith Sweat. Still In The Game. Rumors.
The rumor in the street, baby girl
Is that you're leavin' me
After all I've done for you
How could you leave me?
Baby, all your girlfriends say
That you're leavin' me
After all I've done for you
How could you leave me?
Everybody's talkin'
And the word is on the street
That you're playin' games
And sayin' things like you're leavin' me
I don't know just what to do
All the things that we've been through
It should have come to you
And thought that you won't play just like a fool
Your so-called girlfriends would never lie on you
So everything they say, girl, it must be true
You got my lying here, oh, baby, by myself
The rumor in the street, you're with somebody else
The rumor in the street, baby, girl
Is that you're leavin' me
After all I've done for you
How could you leave me?
Baby, all your girlfriends say
That you're leavin' me
After all I've done for you
How could you leave me?
Now you got another lover tryin' to take my place
You can try to hide it all you want, it's written on your face
Now I'm sad and lonely 'cause I thought I was your only
But you run behind my back, now tell me how you gonna act
You had those proper things and, baby, diamond rings
Anything for you, oh, girl, I wouldn't do
Now I'm lying here, oh, baby, by myself
The rumor in the street, you're with somebody else
The rumor in the street, baby, girl
Is that you're leavin' me
After all I've done for you
How could you leave me?
Baby, all your girlfriends say
