Jam & Lewis, Babyface, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis - He Don't Know Nothin' Bout It

Talkin' about all of the things he's goin' do to you
When he gets you home
Coming up short, making all them excuses, well
You're better off alone
Think he's fire 'cause he drive a six hundred that
He don't even own
Talkin' like he's the guy
He could 'bout have any girl he want

He don't know nothin' bout it
'Bout time you found a man
He just behavin' around it
Girl, he don't understand
What you go through
He ain't got a clue
What love really means to you
He don't know nothin' bout it
He don't know nothin' bout it

Talkin' bout all of those things he's goin' buy for you
Can't even get a loan
Runnin' round town frontin' like he take good care of you
But everybody knows (everybody knows)
How can a guy think he fly
When he's still living at his momma's home
Say goodnight, ain't it time
Think it's only right that you let him go

He don't know nothin' bout it
Bout time you found a man
He just behavin' around it
Girl he don't understand
What you go through
He ain't got a clue
What love really means to you
He don't know nothin' bout it
He don't know nothin' bout it, yeah

You need a man to be strong
That will always be there
Whenever you need him
You shouldn't have to call him
A man who will be, be right there when you fall (when you fall)
If you put your heart in his hands
Then he needs to be your friend
A friend who will listen (oh, baby, yeah)
To all of your needs (all of your needs, yes)
If for no other reason but to love, and to trust
And to be your everything
Something that every woman needs

Ooh yeah, oh
He don't know nothin' bout it, nothin' bout it, baby, oh yeah
No, say it now
He don't know nothin' bout it
Not a damn, baby
No he don't, no he don't, no he don't
He just be hangin' around it, yeah
Oh baby, can't you see what you need?

You need a man (you need a man) to be strong
That will always be there (oh, baby)
Whenever you need him (whenever you need him)
You shouldn't have to call him (you shouldn't have to call)
A man who will be (who will be)
Be right there (be right there)
When you fall (when you fall)
You put your heart in his hands (oh, in his hands)
Then he needs to be your friend
A friend who will listen (oh, a friend who will listen)
To all of your needs (every one of your needs)
If for no other reason but to love, and to trust
And to be your everything
Something that every woman needs

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ah
Baby, baby, baby, baby

Get him off your mind
Get him off your head
Get him out your soul
Get him out your bed

He don't know nothin' bout it
Ah, yes, ah
Yes, ah, look around
See what you got
Don't you know
He don't know nothing
See he don't know nothing
He don't know a thing, yeah, yeah, ooh
He don't know nothin' bout it, yeah
