Back and Forth Lyrics by JoJo

JoJo (European Edition)

2004

[Intro]
Boy, you can't keep playin' (Back, forth)
No time for delayin' (Back, forth)
So what is it gon' be? (What's it gon' be) (Back, forth)
Why you checkin' for me? (Back, forth)
Oh yeah
Back and forth

[Verse 1]
Boy you need to let me know
You keep sendin' me mixed signals
You treat me like your girl
Till your friends come around
And then your playin' me out
Need to make up your mind
Be careful boy
You will find me, with somebody else
Don't let a good thing pass you by
So boy

[Chorus]
Boy you can't keep playin' (oh)
Please hear what I'm sayin', boy (please hear what I'm sayin')
No time for delayin' (no time)
You've gotta be sure
I can't go back and forth
So what is it gonna be (what's it gon' be)
Can I be the one? (can I be the one)
Are you checkin' for me (oh)
You know, you gotta be sure
I can't go back and forth
Oh, yeah yeah

[Verse 2]
You get mad when I'm with somebody else
'Cause you want me for yourself
Well stop playin'
Baby I'm sayin'
Just tell me the truth, yeah
Well, let me ask you a few questions
What do you want me for
To keep me guessin'?
Boy, can't you tell me
Why you let a good thing pass you by ?
So boy

[Chorus]
Boy you can't keep playin'
Please hear what I'm sayin', boy (hear what I'm sayin' boy)
No time for delayin' (ain't no time)
You've gotta be sure
I can't go back and forth
So what is it gonna be? (what's it gon' be)
Can I be the one? (can I be the one?)
Are you checkin' for me (yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)
You know, you gotta be sure
I can't go back and forth

[Bridge]
Back and forth, and forth
Yes or no, baby
Tell me are you sure
Back and forth, and forth
I know your feelin' me
So what you waiting for
Back and forth, and forth
Yes or no, baby
Tell me are you sure
Back and forth, and forth
I know your feelin' me
So what you waiting for

[Chorus]
Boy you can't keep playin'
Please hear what I'm sayin', boy (hear what I'm sayin')
No time for delayin' (no)
You've gotta be sure
I can't go back and forth
So what is it gonna be (so what's it gon' be)
Can I be the one
Are you checkin' for me (Are you checkin' for me)
You know, you gotta be sure
I can't go back and forth (back and forth)
Boy, you can't keep playin' (stop playin', oh yeah)
No time for delayin' (ain't no time, ain't no time)
So what's it gon' be (tell me what's it gon' be)
I can't go back and forth (can't go back and forth)

[Outro]
Are you checkin' for me baby
