Don'T Make Me Late

Bring me my shoes, give me my hat
I've got to look my very best
In my brand-new slacks
Bring my umbrella in case it starts to rain
I'm going to my baby's house
And straighten out the whole thing

(Please hurry driver) please hurry driver
(Don't make me late) don't make me late
I've got to get to my baby's house, so we can communicate
(Oh, hurry driver) oh, hurry driver
(Don't make me late) don't make me late
I just can't wait to see my baby's pretty face

You see, she heard a story that wasn't true
And if she leaves me, I don't know what I'm gonna do
There's always somebody willing to break-up a good love affair
That's why I don't have any time
I don't have no time to spare

So (please hurry driver), hurry driver
(Don't make me late) don't make me late
I've got to get to my baby's house so we can communicate
(Please hurry driver) please hurry driver
Don't make me late
I just can't wait to see my baby's pretty face

You see, oh, oh-ooh-oh-oh (please hurry driver)
Oh-oh, ooh-oh (please hurry, driver)

You see, I know my so-called friend
Is gonna be there
He may plan to run his fingers through her pretty hair
I know the phone been off the hook
I know she's got everything he likes
Even her pretty looks, so

(Please hurry driver) hurry driver
(Don't make me late) don't make me late
I've got to see my baby so we can communicate
She heard a story that wasn't true
And if she leaves me, I don't know what I'm gonna do
So (please hurry driver), hurry driver
(Don't make me late) don't make me late
I just can't wait to see my baby's pretty face

So hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry (please hurry driver)
(Don't make me late) don't make me late
I've got to see my, I've got to see my baby's face, ooh
(Please hurry driver)
Don't make me late
I've got to see my baby so we can talk and communicate
(Please hurry driver) talk, sorry about what you heard
