He could send a dozen roses on your birthday
Five star dining like it's no thang
Don't be surprised 'cause when his boys call him
He'll just forget you for the weekend
Oh he's gonna
Shower you with good intentions
Leave you craving his affection
Don't be surprised if he gets bored one day
Decides he needs another toy to play
If he seems too good to be true
Well that's probably the truth
You can't take the boy out of the man
He'll chase you 'til he has you in his hands
You're gonna lose your mind tryna understand
'Cause you can't no you can't no you can't
Believe him when he tells you that he's changed
He'll always find his way back to his old ways
You're gonna lose your mind tryna understand
'Cause you can't no you can't no you can't
Take the boy out the man
He could be your lifeline at a boring party (boring party)
Always charming everybody
(everybody)
Don't be surprised when he takes it too far
(too far)
And calls you crazy fighting in the car
If he seems too good to be true
Well that's probably the truth
You can't take the boy out of the man
He'll chase you 'til he has you in his hands
You're gonna lose your mind tryna understand
'Cause you can't no you can't no you can't
Believe him when he tells you that he's changed
He'll always find his way back to his old ways
You're gonna lose your mind tryna understand
'Cause you can't no you can't no you can't
Take the boy out the man
I know it's not their fault
(their fault)
They're years behind us all
(us all)
So if he's texting his ex
(his ex)
Blame it on his prefrontal cortex
'Cause you can't take the boy out of the man
He'll chase you 'til he has you in his hands
You're gonna lose your mind tryna understand
'Cause you can't no you can't no you can't
Believe him when he tells you that he's changed
He'll always find his way back to his old ways
You're gonna lose your mind tryna understand
'Cause you can't no you can't no you can't
Take the boy out the man
Mmm
No you can't no you can't no you can't
Take the boy out the man
Ohhhh
Take the boy out the man
