I think it's time we got this straight. Let's sit, and talk face to face. There is no way you could mistake him for your man. Are you insane?
You see I know that you may be Just a bit jealous of me, 'Cause you're blind if you can't see That his love is all in me.
You see I tried to hesitate. I didn't wanna say what he told me. He said without me he couldn't make It through the day; ain't that a shame?
Maybe you misunderstood, 'Cause I can't see how he could. Wanna take his time and that's so good. But all my love is all it took.
[Chorus:] You need to give it up. Had about enough (Santana: enough) It's not hard to see The boy is mine. (Santana: The boy is mine) I'm sorry that you (Santana: sorry that you) Seem to be confused (Santana: confused) He belongs to me. The boy is mine
Must you do the things you do You keep on acting like a fool. You need to know it's me, not you. And if you didn't know it, girl, it's true.
I think that you should realize, And try to understand why He is a part of my life I know it's killing you inside.
You can say what you wanna say What we have you can't take. From the truth, you can't escape, I can tell the real from the fake.
When will you get the picture, You're the past, I'm the future. Get away it's my time to shine, And if you didn't know the boy is mine
[Chorus:] You need to give it up. Had about enough (Mercedes: enough) It's not hard to see (Mercedes: to see) The boy is mine (Mercedes: the boy is mine) I'm sorry that you (Mercedes: sorry that you) Seem to be confused. (Mercedes: seem to be confused) He belongs to me. (Mercedes: he belong to me) The boy is mine (Mercedes: the boy is mine)
