You can't get it back
You can't get it back
You can't (can't) get (get) it (it) back (back)
You can't (can't) get (get) it (it) back
Verse 1 when we begun
You know you had a sister all sprung, with ya tongue
I thought you were my baby Now
When we lay-ed, you always knew the right words to say
We got engaged to be married the very next May

As the time moved on
The love we had got torn
You used to love me from dusk to dawn
But now you tripping from night til morn
Now you wanna change
I'm sick of you playing these games
I'm telling you one thing
You ain't getting it back you ain't getting back this ring

Chorus
Gave you my love and I can't get it back
Gave you all my time and I can't get it back
Now the ring that you gave me you can't have it back cos it's just not going down like that
Gave you my time and I can't get it back
Gave you all my love and I can't get it back
Now the things that you gave me you wanted them back but it's just not going down like that

Can't (can't) get (get) it (it) back (back)
Can't (can't) get (get) it (it) back

Verse 2 now we're through
Too much times been wasted on you
But it's cool...
Put the glass shoe on another young fool
I accept that you crept
And couldn't take the heat so you stepped
Now I'm set don't come back for nothing that you left

As the time moved on
The love we had got torn
You used to love me from dusk to dawn
But now your tripping from night til morn
Now you wanna change
I'm sick of you playing these games
I'm telling you one thing
You ain't getting it back you ain't getting back this ring

Chorus

Boy let me tell you this don't you know you can't get back what you put in this relationship
That includes this ring cos I know I can't back all my kissing hugging loving when I...

We had a happy enviroment
I put all this time in
I gave you my all and even met your requirements
Now you going out cheating
And you coming home smiling
You can say what you want but you ain't getting this diamond
You ain't getting this ring back...you tiptoed
You ain't getting this ring back...just keep ya zip closed
If you really think that...But you can take me for a ride if you knock on my door you know we're gonna collide

Chorus (Times 2)
