You're gettin' a little too smart
You're tryin' to get ahead
Your playing with my heart
Between the lines I read
I gotta cut you down
And make you hang around
wooo, sincerely, love you dearly
Don't make me weary
You know you're gonna kill me, yeah

Wooo, you're gettin' a little too smart
You're learning everything
Somebody's telling you
All kinds of foolish things
Their gonna make you laugh, ha ha, huh
Their gonna make you cry-I-I-I
Their gonna break your heart
Their gonna say buh-bye, woo-hoo-oo
Sincerely, love you dearly
Don't make me weary
You know you're gonna kill me, yeah, oh
Listen, you're gettin' a little too smart
You're playing with my heart
You're playing with my heart, baby, sho-nuff
You're gettin' a little too smart, girl
Listen, you're gettin' a little too smart
You're learning everything
Somebody's telling you
