You Better Beware

[Verse 1: David Ruffin]
You say you won't give me
The time-of-day
You refuse my conversation
Won't even look my way

[Pre-Chorus: David Ruffin]
But I know I'm gonna get you
Ooh, it's just a matter of time
Girl, I'm not gonna give up trying
Until you are mine

[Chorus]
Beware!
(You better beware) Little girl, you better beware
I'm out to get you
Beware!
(You better beware) Oh, you better beware
Listen, honey

[Verse 2: David Ruffin]
I am so determined (I am so determined)
To win your love for me
Girl, there's no substitution
No, no, I won't let you be

[Pre-Chorus: David Ruffin]
Listen honey, every time I see you
Ooh, I feel so doggone good inside
I just can't hold back my feelings
Listen honey, I just won't be denied

[Chorus]

(You better be) Your sweet love, you better beware
Girl, I'm out to get you (I'm gonna get you)
