Foolin’ Around Lyrics by Cherrelle

Affair

1988

[Verse 1]
Lately when I'm with you, you seem so far away
Rumor has it, you're gone astray
The talk all over town, you found somebody new
I know sometimes it's hard for you
Making me promises you know that you can't keep
You're even talking in your sleep
I know it's crazy what we're going through
But fooling around is crazy, too

[Chorus]
Is it yes or no?
Should I stay or go?
Stop fooling around, boy
Is it yes or no?
Should I stay or go?
Stop fooling around, boy

[Verse 2]
Feeling what's inside of me wondering what to say
Here we are face to face
Do you wanna settle down or just keep fooling around
Spreading your love all over town?
It's not very often that I complain to you
But lately, baby, you've been too loose
(You know what I mean?)
I can't wait not one more single day
Tell me what you gonna do

[Chorus]
Is it yes or no? (Woo-hoo)
Should I stay or go? (Stay or go?)
Stop fooling around, boy
(Oh, oh, oh, yeah)
Is it yes or no? (Yes or no?)
Should I stay or go? (Stay or go?)
Stop fooling around, boy
(Stop your fooling around)
Is it yes or no?
Should I stay or go? (Hey)
Stop fooling around, boy
(Fooling, fooling, fooling around)
Is it yes or no? (Oh)
Should I stay or go? (Hey)
Stop fooling around, boy
(Fooling, fooling, fooling around)

[Bridge]
People saying you've been straying
(Stop your fooling around)
Our love's fading, I'm not waiting
(You know what I mean?)

[Chorus]
Is it yes or no? (Oh)
Should I stay or go? (Stay or go?)
Stop fooling around, boy
(Tell me what you gonna do)
Is it yes or no?
Should I stay or go?
Stop fooling around, boy
(Fooling, fooling, fooling around)
Is it yes or no?
(I can't take it, take it no more)
Should I stay or go?
Stop fooling around, boy
(Stop your fooling around)
Is it yes or no? (Oh, oh)
Should I stay or go? (Stay or go?)
Stop fooling around, boy (Oh, yeah)
Is it yes or no? (Fooling, fooling)
Should I stay or go? (Fooling, fooling)
Stop fooling around, boy
(Fooling around, yeah)
Is it yes or no?
Should I stay or go?
