Be Careful (Album Version)

ft. R. Kelly
Two years ago, promises is all I heard.
Wait a minute, let me finish.
Two years ago, promises is all I heard out of your mouth.
And now you wanna walk away, boy, and tear down the walls of this house.
You used to tell me sweet things, sweet things in the morningtime.
Now all you do is hurt me and think that everything is fine.
You better be careful what you say to me,
'Cause it might turn around on you.
You better be careful what you do to me,
'Cause somebody might do it to you.
Now who was there for you when your ass is out of work?
All by myself taking Little Man to church.
So quick to hang up the phone when I stepped in the room.
Then you wanna turn it all around.
I'm getting tired of playing fool.
You better be careful what you say to me,
'Cause it might turn around on you.
You better be careful what you do to me,
'Cause somebody might do it to you.
If the shoe fits, wear it, boy.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
If the shoe fits, wear it, boy.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Two years ago, didn't know you had male friends.
Wait a minute, let me finish.
Two years ago, didn't know you had male friends off up in college.
I found out you're still reaching out to some of them, Mrs. Busy Body
Mmmm.
You used to listen to me when you were down and lost.
Mmmm, mmmm.
But now you don't even respect me ever since I got laid off.
You better be careful what you say to me,
'Cause it might turn around on you.
You better be careful what you do to me,
'Cause somebody might do it to you.
Now who gave you money when your ass is broke without a dime?
And even though Little Man is not my child, I made him mine.
Mmmm, hmmm.
So quick to run to your friends and talk about what we do in this house.
And now you wanna party all night long.
What the hell you talking 'bout?
You better be careful what you say to me,
'Cause it might turn around on you.
You better be careful what you do to me,
'Cause somebody might do it to you, ooh, ooh, ooh.
If the shoe fits, wear it, girl.
Ah, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi.
If the shoe fits, wear it, girl.
Ah, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi.
