I've seen the way that you look at him,

 When you think I'm not around,

 And I've seen you try to catch his eyes,

And you think you're gainin' ground.

You know last night he told me,

Everything that you said,

You asked him if he gets lonely,

Well then get this through your head

 

Keep your hands off my baby,

Keep your hands off my baby,

Don't you know you better give it up,

Give it up, give it up, give it up, give it up,

Don't you know you better stop, better stop,

Leave my baby alone.

 

I've seen the way that you brushed back your hair,

I've heard your baby-talk,

I know just what you're thinkin' there,

Ooo, I'm watchin' what you want.

You know it took a lot of patience,

To win my baby's love,

Now you're tryin' my patience,

If you push, I'm gonna shove.

 

Keep your hands off my baby,

Keep your hands off my baby,

Don't you know you better give it up,

Give it up, give it up, give it up, give it up,

Don't you know you better stop, better stop,

Leave my baby alone (yeah).

 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...

 I've seen the way that you look at him,

When you think I'm not around,

I've seen you try to catch his eyes,

And you think you're gainin' ground.

You know last night he told me,

Everything that you said,

You asked him if he gets lonely,

Well get this through your head.

 

Keep your hands off my ...,

Keep your hands off my baby,

Keep your hands off my baby,

Don't you know you better give it up,

Give it up, give it up, give it up, give it up,

Don't you know you better stop, better stop,

Leave my baby ...

Give it up (yeah), give it up (yeah), said give it up (yeah),

Give it up (yeah), give it up (yeah),

Don't you know you better stop, (better stop),

Leave my baby alone
