Temptress Lyrics

I don't beg love
And neither do I borrow, hey

Temptress, I'm calling your bluff
Temptress, I hope you can deliver the stuff
Temptress, enough is enough
Let off ease up, you're playing too rough

You've been tickling my fancy too long now hey
And girl, my feelings have gotten so strong
I can't hold back the vibes no more
I think it's time we settle the score

No more promises, no more guile
I got to settle the score right now

Temptress, I'm calling your bluff
Temptress, I hope you can deliver the stuff
Temptress, enough is enough
Let off ease up, you're playing too rough

Your friends, they warned me about you long time ago, hey
But I'm a different kind of man, you know, hey
I'm not the type you wrap round your finger

I'm not here to waste time, I no linger
If you're not ready to deliver
Throw in your towel 'cause the game is over

Temptress, I'm calling your bluff
Temptress, I hope you can deliver the stuff
Temptress, enough is enough
Let off ease up, you're playing too rough

You're acting like a Jezebel, hey
You're acting like a Jezebel

You've been tickling my fancy too long now, ooh
And girl my feelings have gotten so strong, hey
I can't hold back the vibes no more
I think it's time we settle the score

No more promises, no more guile
I got to settle the score right now

Temptress, I'm calling your bluff
Temptress, I hope you can deliver the stuff
Temptress, enough is enough
Let off ease up, you're playing too rough

You're acting like a Jezebel, hey
You are gonna miss me tomorrow
'Cause I don't beg love and neither do I borrow
'Cause if you diss to me today
You are gonna miss me tomorrow

'Cause I don't beg love and neither do I borrow
Neither do I borrow
You are gonna miss me tomorrow
Diss me today, you are gonna, miss me tomorrow

Temptress, I'm calling your bluff
Temptress, I hope you can deliver the stuff
Temptress, enough is enough
Let off ease up, you're playing too rough

You're acting like a Jezebel, hey
You're acting like a Jezebel
'Cause I don't beg love, no way, neither do I borrow
And neither do I borrow

I don't beg love and neither do I borrow
'Cause if you do diss to me today
You are gonna miss me tomorrow
You are gonna miss me tomorrow
Miss me tomorrow, miss me tomorrow
