  • I get strung up from her loving
    I wish she'd cared to see
    But she only cares when she's got the time
    And I fret so much about her loving
    I wish she'd let me be
    But our destinies got us intertwined

    And is it really my fault?
    I get a shiver when I see her with those other guys
    Wearing the jacket I bought
    I can't help but lose my temper and I don't know why

    I get jealous, but I'm too cool to admit it
    When the fellas talk to my girl, I ain't with it
    I get jealous, but I'm too cool to admit it
    When the fellas talk to my girl, I ain't with it
    I ain't with it, I ain't with it, I ain't with it
    I ain't with it, I ain't with it, I ain't with it
    I ain't with it, I ain't with it, I ain't with it
    I ain't with it, I ain't with it, I ain't with it

    What is she thinking? Too much uncertainty
    Why can't she give some sort of sign?
    You know and I know a thing or two about loyalty
    Ooh, but that girl don't pay no mind

    So is it really my fault?
    I get a shiver when I see you with those other guys
    Wearing the jacket I bought
    I can't help but lose my temper and I don't know why

    I get jealous, but I'm too cool to admit it
    When the fellas talk to my girl, I ain't with it
    I get jealous, but I'm too cool to admit it
    When the fellas talk to my girl, I ain't with it
    I ain't with it, I ain't with it, I ain't with it
    I ain't with it, I ain't with it, I ain't with it
    I ain't with it, I ain't with it, I ain't with it
    I ain't with it, I ain't with it, tu tu tu tu

    I get strung up from her loving
    I wish she'd cared to see
    But she only cares when she's so inclined
    And I fret so much about her loving
    I wish she'd let me be
    But our destinies got us so intertwined

    Back in 2011, I decided
    To not let this play with my mind
    But when them boys from out of town, they come back around
    I feel like committing a crime, yeah

    I get jealous, but I'm too cool to admit it
    When the fellas talk to my girl, I ain't with it
    I get jealous, but I'm too cool to admit it
    When the fellas talk to my girl, I ain't with it

    I get jealous, but I'm too cool to admit it
    When the fellas talk to my girl, I ain't with it
    I get jealous, but I'm too cool to admit it
    When the fellas talk to my girl, I ain't with it Writer/s: David Macklovitch, Oliver Elliot Goldstein, Patrick Gemayel
