New Edition | Lyrics | Count Me Out

Count me out, count me out

Fellows want to hang
And save tonight just for the gang
But you'll have to count me out tonight
If I can't bring my girl

Don't look surprised when I tell you that
Gotta spend some time with my baby, yes
So if that means we're gonna rain on your parade

You'll have to count me out
(You're gonna have to count me out)
You'll have to count me out
(I wanna be with my girlfriend)
You'll have to count me out this time
You'll have to count me out

When she asked me please
Could I say no and feel at ease?
If you count me out tonight
She's gonna be with me wherever I go

She's got a sweet personality
She saves her kisses just for me
So if that means we're gonna rain on your parade

You'll have to count me out
(You're gonna have to count me out)
You'll have to count me out
(I'm saving kisses for my baby)
You'll have to count me out this time
You'll have to count me out

You'll have to count me out
(You're gonna have to count me out)
You'll have to count me out
(My baby wants to be with me)
You'll have to count me out
(That's the way it's gonna be)
You'll have to count me out

Count me out
Count me out

You'll have to count me out
(You're gonna have to count me out)
You'll have to count me out
(I wanna be with my girlfriend)
You'll have to count me out this time
You'll have to count me out

You'll have to count me out
(You're gonna have to count me out)
You'll have to count me out
(I'm saving all my loving for her)
You'll have to count me out this time
You'll have to count me out

I love my baby but she's just a tease
And when I need her I say please, please, please
Can I hold you, squeeze you? 'Cause I need you
(Count me out)

You'll have to count me out this time
(Don't count me out, don't leave me out)
You'll have to count me out this time

You'll have to count me out
(Count me out)
You'll have to count me out
(Count me out)
You'll have to count me out
(Count me out)
You'll have to count me out

Man, we're going to the movies
Then to the park, to play a little ball till it get dark
That's what being young is all about
Man, C O U N T me out

Well what about us, we're your friends
We wanna C O U N T me in
No not tonight, where you going then?
Tonight I wanna be with my girlfriend

You'll have to count me out
(You'll have to count me out)
You'll have to count me out
(You'll have to count me out)
You'll have to count me out this time
(You'll have to count me out)

Count me out
Don't count me out
Don't leave me out
Count me out

You'll have to count me out
(You're gonna have to count me out)
You'll have to count me out
(I'm saving kisses for my baby)
You'll have to count me out this time
You'll have to count me out

You'll have to count me out
(You're gonna have to count me out)
You'll have to count me out
(I wanna be with my girlfriend)
You'll have to count me out this time
You'll have to count me out

You'll have to count me out
(You're gonna have to count me out)
You'll have to count me out
(I'm saving kisses for my baby)
