August Off The Market Lyrics

They never thought she was worth it
They never did believe,
They didn't think you derived it, deserved it
To be treated like the queen!
See now they're all looking crazy, crazy
Cause you're sitting on top of the world,
I know they're feeling envy now that you're my girl!

[Chorus:]
You know hearts will be breaking
Cause you're no more on for the taking,
It's a cry and shame, they all missed the chances
But now when they're asking you,
You know just what to say!
Going down... keep the heads to themselves
Girl you're off the market, market
You don't want nobody else!
Baby I promised I'll love you,
And I will put nobody above you
So tell 'em boys stop it, stop it,
Girl, you're off the market, market, oh!

Listen! Now everybody knew about you
But they was... and shy!
I had my sight...
I picked you up right of the sky
It's such a miracle, that no one ever fell in love,
And I tell you all the time,
Now that you're mine, oh girl!

[Chorus:]
You know hearts will be breaking
Cause you're no more on for the taking,
It's a cry and shame, they all missed the chances
But now when they're asking you, You know just what to say!
Going down... keep the heads to themselves
Girl you're off the market, market
You don't want nobody else!
Baby I promised I'll love you,
And I will put nobody above you
So tell 'em boys stop it, stop it,
Girl, you're off the market, market, oh!

Tell 'em all that you're not the one
Tell 'em all that yeah, it was fun, wild and nasty!
But this is the end of the line, see what they say ain't always true,
I guess that was the case with you
That's what I learned, this night's got...
They all missed the chances, now that they're asking
You know just what to say!

[Chorus:]
Going down... keep the heads to themselves
Girl you're off the market, market
You don't want nobody else!
Baby I promised I'll love you,
And I will put nobody above you
So tell 'em boys stop it, stop it,
Girl, you're off the market, market, oh!
You could tell 'em how to stop it, stop it,
My baby is off the market, oh!
Baby I promised I'll love you,
And I will put nobody above you
So tell 'em boys stop it, stop it,
Girl, you're off the market, market, oh
