I'm a player..... girl I thought you knew
When you started messin around with me, knew I wouldn't commit to you
Cause I'm a player...... and I know you can't see it in my eyes......
Everyone says that I'm innocent, and it should come as no surprise....
That I'm a player........... and I really think you need to know
That I can't love you right now baby, 'cause I need more time to grow.......

But when I do get ready to settle down....
Baby the first one I'm calling is you
Oh....... when I do get ready to settle down,
Baby the first one I'm calling is you
But until then.........

I'm a player, and I've traveled all around the world,
I've broken many hearts, and it really hurts to say this to you girl
But I'm a player........ and it's kinda sad that it has to be this way,
But I don't wanna lock you down until I'm ready, so right now, I'm gonna play......

But when I do get ready to settle down....
Baby the first one I'm calling is you
Oh....... when I do get ready to settle down,
Baby the first one I'm calling is you
But until then.........

But when I do get ready to settle down....
Baby the first one I'm calling is you
Oh....... when I do get ready to settle down,
Baby the first one I'm calling is you
But until then.........
