(chorus)
If you got kids back home I wanna know
If you don't I wanna know
If you're straight or you ain't I wanna know
If you're broke I wanna know
I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know
I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know
(verse 1)
If you wanna be with me I gotta know
What you doin', where your goin'
Where you have been
Who you loved, who you liked, who you seein'
Before I let you in
Because I learned from my past...oh yes I did
Met a guy that I liked, he was my type
But he lied 'bout his wife and he tried
To play me, play me
(b-section)
Now how long was he goin'
Wait before he told me 'bout that
I can't believe he did me like that
Something I should've known
But I've learned my lesson
Not again will I be naive
I need to know the secrets ya'll keep
Cause what I don't know can come back on me
(repeat chorus)
(verse 2)
If you wanna fall in love...gotta be aware
'bout the life that your lover's been leadin'
So you know if they gonna be schemin'
Or if they gonna dog you out
Cause I know I've had my share...oh yes I did
Did me wrong...stayin' at some woman's place
I'm just glad he was not a closet case
Deal with cheatin'...but not that way
(repeat b-section and chorus)
(breakdown)
Ladies, oh ladies
Find out all the partners he's had
So later on you won't be mad
Findin' out what you don't know
Fellas, oh fellas
Check for that Adam's apple
So you won't be on no talk show
Finding out what you don't know
(repeat chorus)
