Nodding Off

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I tried to stay up 'cause you're on your way up For the weekend, said you wanna see me again Said you'll be over, still ain't seen your Rover Looking out my window, it's a quarter to ten It's about that time, I really can't stay hot Know you wanna kick it And I was with it but I won't be trippin' if you don't show Won't hear you knockin' They got vacancy at the Howard Johnson, you know [Chorus] Don't try to call me, 'cause the ringer's off Don't try to page me, my two-way is lost I had a Jones for ya, but it seems you're lost I tried to wait for ya, but I'm nodding off Don't try to call me (Don't), 'cause the ringer's off (Yeah, yeah) Don't try to page me (Don't), my two-way is lost (Oh) I had a Jones for ya, but it seems you're lost I tried to wait for ya, but I'm nodding off [Verse 2] Watched Forrest Gump and put something on my stomach and I called my cousin, listened to her gossiping mouth Touched up my makeup, anything to wake up Tryin' to take up some time while I'm waitin' it out What's the hold up? I thought you would've rolled up in the driveway Before the day came, why should I wait? I'm sleepy as hell and there's no way I can abort this mission, so listen [Chorus] Don't try to call me, 'cause the ringer's off (Yeah) Don't try to page me, my two-way is lost I had a Jones for ya, but it seems you're lost I tried to wait for ya, but I'm nodding off Don't try to call me (Don't try), 'cause the ringer's off Don't try to page me ('Cause), my two-way is lost I had a Jones for ya, but it seems you're lost (Woah) I tried to wait for ya, but I'm nodding off [Bridge] No hard feelings really I'm already under the cover Please don't be mad at me You gotta believe I still love ya No hard feelings really (No, no) I'm already under the cover Please don't be mad at me (Don't be mad at me) You gotta believe I still love ya (Oh, oh) [Chorus] Don't try to call me (Call me), 'cause the ringer's off (No) Don't try to page me, my two-way is lost I had a Jones for ya, but it seems you're lost I tried to wait for ya (Yeah), but I'm nodding off (Don't) Don't try to call me (Try), 'cause the ringer's off (Phone's) Don't try to page me (Lost), my two-way is lost (Ah, I) I had a Jones for ya (Had a Jones for you), but it seems you're lost (But it seems you're lost) I tried to wait for ya (Had to show you I'd been waiting for you), but I'm nodding off
