Backyard [single Version] Lyrics - Greatest Hits - Pebbles

Do you get suspicious? 

Watch for the glances? 

Don't put your love life in the streets 

Do you get suspicious? 

Watch for the glances? 

You better take it from me 

Friends, who needs 'em? 

One can't live with 'em, can't live without 

Men, can't keep 'em 

Not when your good friend is trying to bring you down 

Down, down, down 

Do you get suspicious when they call you their girlfriend 

And you don't know them very well? 

Watch for the glances on the side to your boyfriend 

Just read the signs, I'm sure you can tell 

You see somebody standing in your own backyard 

Somebody's trying to steal your man 

Don't be a fool and let them get that far 

You better stop them while you can 

Hold on to your man 

Hold, hold 

Hold on to him 

Hold on 

Hold, hold 

Trends, they feed 'em 

They all jump on it, on whatever is hot 

But girlfriends be careful 

Because your man might be just what they ain't got, no 

You should be cautious if you've found you a good man 

Don't put your love life in the streets 

There is a shortage of good love from a good man 

So watch your back, you better take it from me 

You see somebody standing in your own backyard 

Somebody's trying to steal your man 

They'll try and steal your man 

Don't be a fool and let them get that far, no fool 

You better stop them while you can 

Stop them while you can 

Hold, hold 

Hold on to him 

Hold on 

Hold, hold 

You better take it from me 

Don't be no fool 

Yo, you better watch out, she's out to take your guy 

And I can see why, he's fly even I 

Had my eye on him for a long time 

Yo Pep, what? kick that rhyme 

Don't be dumb, all the girlie's want some 

He's paid, he's not a bum 

Know where I'm coming from? 

Understand she has a plan 

And that's right, she'll take your man 

So you better hold on tight 

She'll take your man and you know that I'm right 

She'll take your man, girls be on your best guard 

'Cause she'll take your man, right from your own backyard 

Oh, if you see somebody standing in your own backyard 

They're out to get your man, girl don't you let them in 

Don't you be a fool and let them get that far 

So stop them while you can, they've got a master plan 

You see somebody standing in your own backyard 

Somebody's trying to steal your man 

You better take it from me 

Don't be a fool and let them get that far, no fool 

You better stop them while you can 

'Cause when you snooze, you lose 

That's when they make their move 

So stop them while you can 

It's just a matter of time and girl that ain't no lie 

They're out to take your man 

Hold on to your man 

Hold on, hold on, hold on to your man 

Hold on, hold on, take it from me 

Hold on, hold on, hold on, to your man 

Hold on, hold on, can't you see? 

Do you get suspicious? 

Watch for the glances? 

Don't put your love life in the streets 

Do you get suspicious? 

Watch for the glances? 

You better take it from me 

Oh, if you see somebody standing in your own backyard 

They're out to get your man, girl don't you let them in 

Don't you be a fool and let them get that far 

So stop them while you can, they've got a master plan 

You see somebody standing in your own backyard 

Somebody's trying to steal your man 

You better take it from me 

Don't be a fool and let them get that far, no fool 

You better stop them while you can 

'Cause when you snooze, you lose 

That's when they make their move 

So stop them while you can 

It's just a matter of time and girl that ain't no lie 

They're out to take your man 

Hold on to your man 

Hold on, hold on, hold on to your man 

Hold on, hold on, take it from me 

Hold on, hold on, hold on, can't you see?
