Tell Me
Ciara Lyrics

I'm used to men approaching me
Trying to talk to me
Always trying buy me things
Drinks to diamond rings
Fast cars first class to the Philippines
That's a daily thing
It don't interest me

[Chorus:]
Just then it came as a surprise

When I looked into your eyes
Never walked up to a guy
But here I go
I don't wanna waist your time
I just wanna make you mine
Wanna play with you all night
So tell me what your name is
And I know I'm acting strange
Girls ain't supposed to be talk this way
But I cant let you slip away
So tell me what your name is

I see you sitting all alone
Tell me though
If you got a girl at home
I gotta know
Is she taking care of you
Like I would do
Then he said, "I don't have a girl, but IÃ¢??m feeling youÃ¢??

[Chorus]

Tell me what your name, what your name, tell me what your name, tell me what your name is
Tell me what your name, what your name, tell me what your name, tell me what your name is

[Repeat: x2]
I don't wanna waist your time
I just wanna make you mine
Wanna play with you all night
So tell me what your name is
And I know I'm acting strange
Girls ain't supposed to be talk this way
But I cant let you slip away
So tell me what your name is
