Tell Her I'm Not Home Lyrics

Woman: Hello?
Tina: Hello, may I please speak to—
Ike: I don't wanna talk to that girl. Tell her I ain't home.
Woman: He's not home.
Tina: Thank you.

(Don't you lie, don't you lie to me...) No, don't lie...
(Don't you lie, don't you lie to me...) No, no, no, no, no, no, don't lie...
(Don't you lie, don't you lie to me...)
If you don't want me, tell me not to phone,

'Cause every time I call you on the phone,
Hmm, they tell me that you're not at home...

And just last night, when I called you,
Before I could say hello,
I could hear you whispering, (Whispering in the background...)
Yes, you was mumbling, (Mumbling in the background...)
Telling them to tell me (Telling them to tell me...)
That you're not at home (not home), not home (not home), not home... (Not home...)

If, by chance, you've found somebody new,
Mm, and you don't know, you don't know what to do,

I'd feel better, when I call you,
If you would ask me not to phone,
Then I wouldn't have to hear you (playing in the background;)
And I said, you wouldn't have to mumble, (Mumbling in the background...)
Telling them to tell me (Telling them to tell me...)
That you're not at home (not home), not home... (Not home...)

Oh-hoh, don't lie... (Don't you lie, don't you lie to me...)
Baby, baby, don't you lie... (Don't you lie, don't you lie to me...)
No, no, no, no, no, no, don't lie... (Don't you lie, don't you lie to me...)
'Cause if you don't wanna talk to me, baby, please, tell me why...

And the next time I call you on the phone,
Don't let them tell me that you're not at home...

I'd feel better, when I call you,
If you told me I'm on my own,
Then I wouldn't have to hear you (saying in the background;)
I said, you wouldn't have to mumble, (Mumble in the background...)
Telling them to tell me (Telling them to tell me...)
That you're not at home (not home), not home... (Not home...)

Oh, oh, don't lie... (Don't you lie, don't you lie to me...)
Baby, baby, don't you lie... (Don't you lie, don't you lie to me...)
No, no, no, no, no, no, don't lie... (Don't you lie, don't you lie to me...)
Baby, baby, don't you lie... (Don't you lie, don't you lie to me...)
No, no, no, no, no, no, don't lie... (Don't you lie, don't you lie to me...)
Baby, I said don't you lie to me... (Don't you lie, don't you lie to me...)
No, no, no, don't lie... (Don't you lie, don't you lie to me...)
Baby, baby, don't lie... (Don't you lie, don't you lie to me...)
