How Ya Doin
Little Mix Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey, how ya doin'? Sorry you can't get through
Why don't you leave your name and your number?
I will get back to you (ooh)

Ain't got no time for what you think can be described as love
I've cut your hold on me, you're missing me, I've had enough
It's been so long since you have treated me like I deserved
So long, baby, I'm gone
You can leave a message for me after the tone

You called, I missed it
You called, I missed it,
You called, and I missed it,
Never get back in, tired of listenin'

Hey, how ya doin'? Sorry you can't get through
Why don't you leave your name and your number?
I will get back to you

I'm through will wish the things with you and me could be so good
Time to wake up or no make-ups can't make me a fool
Too much history, now it comes down to one thing

So long, baby, I'm gone
you can leave a message for me after the tone (oh!)

You called, I missed it
You called, I missed it,
You called, and I missed it,
Never get back in, tired of listenin'

Hey, how ya doin'? Sorry you can't get through
Why don't you leave your name and your number (number)?
I will get back to you (will get back to you)

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

You called, I missed it
You called, I missed it
You called, and I missed it
Never get back in, tired of listenin' (no!)

Hey, how ya doin'? Sorry you can't get through
Why don't you leave your name and your number (number)?
I will get back to you (hey, yeah!)

Hey, how ya doin'? Sorry you can't get through (sorry you can't get through)
Why don't you leave your name and your number?
I will get back to you (will get back to you)

(Never get back, never gonna get back) Ah, ah, ah
(Never get back, never gonna get back) Number
(Never get back, never gonna get back) Ah, ah, ah
(Never get back, never gonna get back) Number

Never get back to you
